SourceThis guide assumes you are running etaHEN or know how to install PKG files. For this tutorial I will be using the built in package installer from etaHEN.
1.) Download @Lapy05575948's Avatar Changer homebrew from PKG zone below, and copy it to a root of your flashdrive. Like so
https://pkg-zone.com/details/LAPY20016
2.) Once copied, insert your flash drive into your PS5 (If not already) and then navigate to Setting > etaHEN Toolbox > Package Installer.
3.) Now go back to your home screen and launch your newly installed app once, and close it right away. This is going to generate the avatar folder that we need.
4.) Now FTP to your console using an FTP client of your choice to "/data/AVATARS" There should be a lot of .xavatar files here. This is where we will copy/upload the avatar that you want to change your local profile too. Here I am uploading my stonedCharmeleon.xavatar that I made following my guide here
5.) Now go back to your PS5, and open Lapy's Avatar changer again, press "r1" to swap pages, and select the custom xavatar you made. You can also change your profile's username from this app by pressing the options button.
