Adds management of the system's own home screen tiles, fixes a gap in how 1.8.0 moves apps, and keeps the CI build working now that the pinned OpenGL SDK download is gone.

System tiles

Tile Move Hide / show Pin
Media Gallery Yes Yes Yes
PS Store No Hide No
Welcome No Show / hide, on every profile No
Game Library, App Library No No (refused) No
Other system tiles No Hide when showing No
  • Tab encoding. System tiles keep their tab as bits of dispLocation, as Art Swap and PSGFX found: 0x02 Games, 0x04 Media (Store 146 on Games, App Library 148 on Media, Gallery 154/156), and the same plus 2048 on tbl_concepticoninfo_<user>. move_system sets one bit and clears the other in all six places: tbl_iconinfo_<user>, tbl_concepticoninfo_<user>, tbl_contentinfo (+ AppInfoJson), tbl_conceptmetadata (+ ConceptInfoJson), and appinfo.db's tbl_appinfo and tbl_conceptinfo. Moving to Media also removes the tile from MyHome. A value with neither bit is never touched.
  • Persistence. lineup_system plus lineup_move_sys_* triggers put the bits back when the console rewrites them at a restart or wake from rest mode. That is where Art Swap's moves came undone. restore_system fixes the JSON copies at start.
  • Media Gallery on the row. TAB_OF places it on the row of its tab bit, so it orders, pins and moves from the row like an app. The console raises its lastAccessIndex when it opens. Pin triggers from 1.8.0 are replaced at start.
  • Welcome. The system hides its own tiles with bit 0x01 and visible = 0 (Welcome and PS Plus are 147). Showing clears both on every profile; hiding puts back exactly what the system had.
  • Hiding. Any other system tile that is showing can hide through lineup_hidden. The libraries and Welcome refuse with 400.

Concept places of moved apps

1.8.0 left a moved app's concept on its old tab: tbl_concepticoninfo_<user> (1162/2236 and hubAppUri), tbl_conceptmetadata (+ display_location in ConceptInfoJson) and tbl_conceptinfo. On one console, Game Compressor moved to Media still had 1162 there. move_app now writes them for an app whose concept is its own, lineup_moved_concept and lineup_move_k* triggers keep them, and restore_moved writes apps moved by 1.8.0 once. The home tab an app returns to is also taken from its category's Media bit when another tool moved it first.

TabShifter leftovers

More options → Remove TabShifter leftovers takes TabShifter's TBSH00001 launcher tile out of both databases, after a backup, and deletes its three folders. Its nsx_content_flag_* rows stay, since the system writes rows with that name too.

Safety

  • The first start keeps original-app.db and original-appinfo.db in /data/lineup/backups for good, before any startup check writes.
  • Backups are named app-<time>-<n>.db. Before, two backups in the same second (the startup checks) overwrote each other, which could lose the copy taken before they ran. Rotation keeps app.db and appinfo.db copies in pairs.
  • Every new trigger and write is created only when the firmware has its columns (has_column).
  • /pins/uninstall also removes the system tile tables and triggers.

Build

  • OpenGL SDK mirror. MyLuxy/overdrive-deps' ps5-opengl 1.0.0 archive now answers 404, so build_ps5.py failed on any runner without the cache. It now tries ps5OpenGL.mirrors in dependencies.lock.json in turn. PS5LM's copy is the same SDK packed again: its archive hash differs, but the pinned manifestSha256 and the per-file check (45 files) pass. This touches ps5-react/ only, in its own commit; I can split it into its own PR if you prefer.
  • Build stamp. Every test build answered /version with 1.8.0, so the app kept using a lineupd left running by an earlier build. /version now also answers a build (local, or the commit CI writes into app/api.js and lineupd.c), and the app replaces a service whose build differs. Release builds stay local.

Testing

  • scripts/test.sh passes, with new cases for all of the above on a synthetic pair of databases.
  • The same checks ran against copies of a real console's app.db and appinfo.db (firmware 13.60). Both pass integrity_check, and nothing lineup_* is left after /pins/uninstall.
  • On one console, firmware 13.60, kstuff and ShadowMountPlus: Gallery move, pin and hide; Store hide; Welcome show and hide; Game Compressor moved to Media stays there when its payload installs the shortcut again.
  • Not tested on other firmware.

One finding that didn't make it in: which tile the cursor selects on a tab switch isn't stored in the database. Giving the Gallery Welcome's sortPriority (12) moved it to the front but didn't change the selection, so that switch was removed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Manage system tiles alongside apps: hide or show them, move them between tabs, and keep related app information together.
    • Remove TabShifter tiles and folders with a confirmation step.
  • Improvements
    • Changes to apps and system tiles are retained more reliably, with database backups created before updates.
    • The app replaces a running service when its version or build does not match.
    • PS5 builds can retrieve the OpenGL SDK from alternate download sources.
  • Documentation
    • Updated guidance for system-tile management, backups, and SDK downloads.

The pinned ps5-opengl 1.0.0 archive at MyLuxy/overdrive-deps now answers
404, so build_ps5.py stopped on any runner without the cache. It now tries
the mirrors in dependencies.lock.json (ps5OpenGL.mirrors) in turn.
PS5LM's copy is the same SDK packed again: its archive hash differs, but
the pinned manifest hash and the per-file check that follows still pass
(45 files). The build record names the hash of the archive used.
lineupd keeps running after Lineup closes, and every build of one version
answers /version alike, so a new test build kept using the service an
earlier one had started. /version now also answers a build: local, or the
commit CI writes into app/api.js and lineupd.c before it builds. The app
replaces a service whose version or build differs. Release builds stay
local, where the version already tells them apart.
System tiles keep their tab as bits of dispLocation (0x02 Games, 0x04
Media, and the same plus 2048 on tbl_concepticoninfo_<user>), as Art Swap
and PSGFX found. The Media Gallery now moves between the tabs: move_system
sets one bit and clears the other in all six places the console keeps it,
in both databases, and takes it out of MyHome on Media. It is on the row
of its tab bit (TAB_OF), so it orders, pins and moves from the row like an
app. lineup_system and lineup_move_sys_* triggers write the bits again
when the console resets them at a restart or out of rest mode, and
restore_system fixes the JSON at start.

The system hides its own tiles with bit 0x01 and visible = 0: Welcome can
now be shown on every profile, and hidden again as the system had it. Any
other system tile that is showing can hide. Game Library, App Library and
Welcome refuse to hide, and only the Gallery moves.

move_app now also writes an app's own concept (tbl_concepticoninfo_<user>,
tbl_conceptmetadata and its ConceptInfoJson, appinfo.db's tbl_conceptinfo),
which 1.8.0 left on the old tab, with lineup_move_k* triggers; apps moved
before are written once at start.

More options can remove TabShifter's TBSH00001 tile from both databases and
its folders. The first start keeps original-app.db and original-appinfo.db
for good; backups in the same second no longer overwrite each other, and
rotation keeps app.db and appinfo.db copies in pairs. New triggers and
writes are made only for columns the firmware has, and /pins/uninstall
removes them all.

Walkthrough

The changes add system-tile visibility and TabShifter cleanup controls, make service checks use version and build identifiers, and add ordered, checksum-verified mirrors for the PS5 OpenGL SDK.

Changes: System-tile controls

Layer / File(s) Summary
System-tile and cleanup API
app/api.js, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md
The hidden-app API returns hidden-app and system-tile data. A new API function requests TabShifter cleanup. The API documentation describes system-tile tab data and cleanup behavior.
Visibility and cleanup interface
app/index.jsx, app/i18n.js
The hidden-app page adds visibility actions for eligible system tiles. The More page adds a TabShifter cleanup confirmation flow and displays the result. English and Brazilian Portuguese messages cover the new controls and cleanup states.
System-tile behavior and release notes
docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, CHANGELOG.md
The architecture documentation describes system-tile movement and visibility, database writes, and backups. The changelog records the unreleased app and service changes.

Service build identity

Layer / File(s) Summary
Build-aware service checks
app/api.js, .github/workflows/ci.yml
The app checks the service version and build together. CI stamps the short commit hash into the app and service build identifiers and verifies both values.

PS5 OpenGL SDK mirrors

Layer / File(s) Summary
Mirrored SDK acquisition and receipt
ps5-react/dependencies.lock.json, ps5-react/tools/build_ps5.py, ps5-react/CHANGELOG.md, ps5-react/docs/DEPENDENCIES.md
The dependency lock lists ordered SDK mirrors and their archive hashes. The build tool tries the mirrors in order and records the digest of the archive used. The changelog and dependency documentation describe the mirror changes.

- Line 740: Clarify the Welcome action beside the `changeApp` call so users know
it affects every profile, or require confirmation that explicitly names this
all-profile scope before changing visibility. Keep the hidden-app sheet’s
profile-only behavior and wording accurate.
- Around line 633-634: Update the cleanup completion flow around close() and
toast() to reload the current tab after successful removal, using the existing
Games-tab fallback when needed. Keep the error path from reloading.
- Line 761: Update the tabshifter cleanup SheetItem’s onPress flow to use the
existing save-or-discard guard before opening the cleanup confirmation. Do not
start cleanup while the row has unsaved changes; proceed only after the guard
resolves those changes.

- Line 17: Revise the changelog entry about Lineup replacing an already-running
lineupd service to limit the claim to cases where the reported version or build
identifier differs. Avoid implying that Lineup can distinguish builds that
report the same version and identifier.
- Around line 13-14: Update the backup entry in CHANGELOG.md to clarify that the
original database backups are captured when this version first runs and may
already include earlier Lineup changes for users upgrading from 1.8.0; make
clear they are not necessarily pre-Lineup backups.

Merged, thanks! The mirror fix in particular unblocks CI on main, and the self-test passes.

A few things I noticed for follow-ups (none blocking):

  • Other system tiles lists every NPXS* tile with visible = 1, including ones that aren't on either tab, so it can hide tiles that never show on the home screen. Filtering on a tab bit (dispLocation & 6) would keep the list to what is actually on the row.
  • Moving the Media Gallery to Media removes it from MyHome, but moving it back to Games doesn't add it again. Worth checking that it comes back in the right place after a round trip.
  • TAB_OF(...) in the WHERE of read_tab and the pin triggers means a full scan instead of dispLocation =. Fine at a couple hundred apps, just noting it.
  • Remove TabShifter leftovers deletes the folders even when no rows were found, while the toast says no tile was found.
  • For anyone upgrading from 1.8.0, original-*.db already includes earlier Lineup changes.
