I have a question: Did you check your tshutdown with "tshutdown get 0" and "tshutdown get 1"? I'm asking because I just edited the fan profile on my Cech-42 (SW3-304) and while it has overwritten the values which I've checked with " r 3b0 10", the "tshutdown get" command still returned the...

So somehow I got in with an older version of the scrip that I downloaded from NSC's video. First I got some python Unicode decode error, but then I switched the Tx and Rx around again and it worked. I checked the fan profile and strangely my eepchecksum is different from the one in the...

Hello everyone I need some help. I've been trying to get into the SW3-304 syscon for the past couple of hours. I've been following the Tutorial from Rip-Felix for Windows. I'm using a ch340G UART which I've put on 3.3V. I've also doublechecked with a multimeter. I've tried using the auth and...

First of all my console (Cech-42xxA) is in working condition, so I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post this, but I did look at the syscon error log of my console through the ps3toolset.com method and was wondering what that could mean. Here's the error log: Error 0: 0xA0805FFF...

I'm currently trying to collect a good amount of baseline measurements so I can compare a before and after. I'll probably do both iso fanspeed, and iso temperature as well as syscon setting. Unfortunately I can't control ambient temperature so I'll have to log that seperately and hope that the...

Yeah, I'm not surprised that this mod is causing problems. If I was ever gonna experiment with increasing the air intake I'd be very careful not to alter the path of the airflow too much. Ideally one would have a before and after test with a bunch of thermocouples placed in different areas (on...

Summer is getting hot and i was wondering if there is anything I can do to optimize the cooling on my PS3. The console is running fine, so this is mostly about optimizing, not fixing any real issue. It's a CECH-42 has a 28nm RSX, and it's still running pretty quietly on the syscon preset, but I...

Thanks a lot, that's all I needed to know.

Quick question: HEN seems to support a variety of HFW and even OFW. The PS3 I'm planning to install HEN on is on OFW 4.81. Would you recommend me to keep it on that one or update to a HFW or even a higher OFW? If there are pros and cons I'd be thankful if anyone could list them. If possible I'd...

Hey I've just seen your excellent video on the topic of YLOD, so I thought I'd share my own experience with it: I got the CECHC04 on launch day. I don't remember exactly when I got my first YLOD, but it must've worked fine for at least 5-6 years. After I got the YLOD I researched the topic and...

I used the free version of isobusters 4.9.1. The game is Alien Resurrection (SLUS-00633) and I verified the dumped bin files recently. I ripped my PS1 collection a long time ago, maybe something happened to the cue file along the way (not sure how to check the integrity of the cue file). The...

Thanks for all the info Ronnie Sahlberg & sandungas. I'll definitely test it out later. I'd be happy to send you the stuff I end up using if it's of any help to you or other users. I was thinking about having a uniform design for the icons and overlay pictures though. Not sure how useful that...

This is a pretty cool tool. I initially didn't intend on going the pkg route for my PS1 backups, but dealing with multitrack games on PS3 is a headache and the fact that pkgs allow for multi-disc games to be packaged together is a nice bonus. I'll probably regret it later, due to the amount of...

That's odd. I've been looking for a way to deal with multi-track PSX games and just tried both IsoBuster and CDMage. I don't know how the merging of bin files is done, but it seems to keep the original multi-track information intact in a single bin file. This allows for an export of the original...

Yeah, to be fair it's probably too early to tell how well it'll all work in the long run. All I know is that it recognises both partitions and game isos can be mounted and played from both partitions for now. Multiman was my first choice, but for some reason it had trouble even reading the...
