Hello all, today I decided to bring out my old phat PS3 to play some classics. The PS3 was running HFW 4.86, however, when I tried enabling HEN it either freezes or it reboots itself. After struggling with this for a couple of hours, I decided to try and update the FW. I downloaded HFW 4.88 and...

A friend of mine asked for help getting his PS3 (CECHE, BD stock but unknown if works, black screen w/ solid green LED on normal startup) working again, but there's an issue: the PS3 format option in the recovery menu asks for system 9.99, which doesn't exist. OFW 4.86 is rejected with...

Few small things I've discovered that may not be known and are kind of interesting This first patch I call the Brick Resistant XMB Patch. Normally when the XMB loads initially, if any of the category xmls are missing, or the icontex.qrc file is missing then the PS3 kicks you to recovery. I...
