I am having a problem with the game Battlefield 4 on my PS3. I am a premium member and have played all five of the DLC's, but the game will no let me use most if not all of the weapons and gadgets I h...
It was reported that re-installing the DLC fixes all the issues related to assignments and weapons that were featured in it (well, Phantom Program may still be bugged, but it's a separate, unrelated issue that came up recently). This fix has a very high success rate, so you may want to try it out.

Thanks, that seemed to work. It may not have actually been a problem because all the DLC's had been erased when I was dealing with that corrupt BF4 1.15 update and had to delete the game data. With that, I did come across another problem with "Downloading in Background" on the PS3 not actually taking effect ingame, but that's almost certainly a Sony problem, or a problem that's just a result of my ignorance with the process.

Ok. I will apologize beforehand and say that I do realize this is an EA forum, not a Sony forum, but in many cases ,like my case, these issues will be related. Anyways, here's the final conclusion for the two issues dealing with the PS3 "Download in Background" process:
For the Bubble/Download Not Taking Effect Issue:
If you download content in the background on PS3 and a bubble pops up under the "Game" submenu after it finishes downloading, you have to select it with the 'X' button to install the download. It doesn't always create a bubble; it only creates a bubble when the install needs to use Game Data (or something like that) or if there was an error in the download process. HOWEVER, if you try to access this menu while a game or other program is running (by hitting the PS button in the middle of a game, movie, etc.) this is NOT the case. In this case, if you hit the 'X' button, it will ONLY bring up install information and will NOT cue the install. You CANNOT be playing a game or running another program when you install content downloaded from the background; it WILL NOT let you.
For the Download Pending/Never Finishing Issue:
There are quite a few people that also have this issue, so I waill go ahead and post this as well, so we can all truely experience the luxury of the "Download in Background" process on the PS3: When content is downloading in the background for PS3, the download WILL PAUSE ITSELF if the PS3 is being used to play online in a game, simply to play an EA game in some cases, or for a few other things that can be found on Playstation forums (sorry that I don't have a link). In this case, under "Account Management" where you find the progress of items downloading in background, it will say "Pending" instead of "Downloading" next to the item and download percentage. Although I am not to sure, I think it will take a minite or two to resume downloading once one of the processes listed above ceases, because obviously you can't be playing a game, much less online, when you view items under "Account Management".
