playstation 3

Hi everyone! My first post here, I tried to search for my answer but couldn't find anything more than a single comment about my issue. I bought CECH 2504 B. It worked fine, but It looked heavily used, so I decided to clean it. After examining the amount of burned dust inside I decided to ditch...

Came across an interesting article today which I thought I'd share. It gives a very in-depth explanation of the history and hardware of the PS3. It certainly helped even an idiot like me understand and appreciate the technical achievements the PS3 offered in terms of hardware and the history...

Hello everyone Yesterday I installed CCAPI on my CFW 4.82 COBRA PS3 and It worked until I decided to open multiman and play some games but it didn't open and instead of this the multiman give me a black screen, so I tried to open sen enabler and it give me black screen also!! , I tried with all...

Good evening (as of this writing). I am PeeJay Bonobo. You might have seen some of my YouTube videos or my streams on Twitch.tv. Now that I am a proud owner of a used (cleaned of massive amounts of dust and repasted, anyway) PlayStation 3, I can finally join the ranks of people who have their...

Since you liked our past Interviews so far where we talk with Developers across all PlayStation consoles - and especially one of our latest Interview where we talked with a Developer who tinkers with various consoles simultaneously - we thought about to do this again. Today's Guest is also...

So here is the story. I thought i got this great deal at a thrift store. a PS3 $5.99 hell yeah. took it home the firmware was low enough so i could mod it! Hell yeah! Modded it and webman was like WHOA your CPU is like 85c+ so I looked up online what to do. I used some rubbing alc and took the...

Hi! Everyone :chuncky: I wanted to know if anyone has ever tried to launch an arcade game (like Tekken Tag Tournament 2 from Namco System 359? I suppose... ) on a PS3 CEX?

Our Interview Series conducted various Interviews with Developers, who worked either mainly for the PlayStation 3 or for the PlayStation 4 (and one time for the PlayStation Vita). But sometimes, there are well-known Developers who say to themselves that working on one console isn't enough for...

I had a YLOD on my 60gb launch fat PS3 so I replaced the four NEC capacitors on the bottom with the appropriate tantalum capacitors according to the repair guides. After putting it back together to test and see if the repair worked, it now just goes green straight to a flashing red light. No...

Hey, guys, so i'm going to start a series of tutorials on how to create RTM tools in C#, currently only with PS3Lib, which means CCAPI and TMAPI only. I'm also going to do a tutorial series about RTM Development with PS3MAPI, but that will come after i finally did my Tutorial with PS3Lib. -Why...

Ok so, a while ago I bought the DLC for this game, Sonic Unleashed, from the PS store. However, after I jailbroke my PS3, I needed to change to a larger HDD. After copying all my files, I found that the DLC is there, but it isn't activated. Could anyone get me the patch file alone so I can...

Hello, Sorry if this seems like a very noob question, but I'm only just trying to learn how to use this, but can't even get far enough to even try to practice. My end objective is to reassign my PS3 save data's console ID and (maybe) date/time settings. I decided to try BruteForce save data...

A handy XMB (main menu) modification for the PlayStation 3 that is now compatible with either CFW (Custom FirmWare) or HEN (Homebrew ENabler) has been updated to v1.10 with a new name as well. This project has seen contributions from various developer's that include @DeViL303, @kozarovv, @mysis...

I hope I explain this well enough, because I'm not sure if it's a common/known issue. I do know why there is a problem with this save data, but I'm not sure how to fix it. My PS3 always had an issue where whenever I used it on a new tv, its hdmi settings would reset, and it would mess up my...

Hello, So, I recently had to change my PS3's board because the old one's bluetooth malfunctioned (had it for about a decade). To install the new board, the hard drive needed to be reformatted. Prior to this, my PS3 had two user accounts; mine, and my brother's (which he rarely uses, nor cares...

So i have really messed up. I have a ps3 super slim and i followed step by step the installation of hen and e.t.c. and it all went good i installed multiman and a few games also. But because i have the 12 GB version of ps3 i formated the whole drive in order to clear up space for a game and i...
