    PS3 4.89 Update is Live! - Discussions / Details about the firmware update

    Hey fellas, enquiring about the toolset. I royally screwed up and updated to 4.89 thinking the toolset was also updated for it because I couldn't get the fatty console to sync up the time properly to match the server's time. Long story short, looking to hear about progress with updating the...

    PS3 DVD region change: what else can I try?

    Multiman and Webman don't work properly. What's really crazy is that I'm able to get foreign DVDs to play on the PS2 using a modified DVD player by krHACKen. I'm not sure why this region changing business isn't working for the PS3 anymore because it seems to have worked in the past. Surely...

    PS3 DVD region change: what else can I try?

    Appreciate it. I've been trying all different kinds of things but I think either the hardware failed (it's a phat PS3) or the filesystem got corrupted from me changing that one value. It was working fine until I used webMAN to reboot the console after applying the changes. Strange thing is...

    PS3 DVD region change: what else can I try?

    Thanks for the welcome! I've been using PSX Place as a source of reference for quite some time now for my psp, ps2 and ps3 shenanigans but this is the first time I've had to reach out to somebody to figure out why this feature doesn't work. I stumbled across a youtube video of a user able to...

    PS3 DVD region change: what else can I try?

    Fellas, I need to bring this back from the dead because I can't seem to get it working either. I had tried all kinds of the more recent firmware versions up to 4.88.2 EVILNAT but doing both fake region + cobra region change via WMM doesn't change anything. I know the DVDs I'm trying to play...
