PS3 bgtoolset access workaround guide

Hello, anyone know if there's a possibility of getting a virus or hacked from this? Thanks
Fiddler is a well known tool for debugging and reverse engineering of network applications. Millions of people from established security firms worldwide use it for research, so if it had malware in it, it would have been a scandal you would've heard of in tech news websites.
Regarding the script I've attached to the first message - It's mainly the regular CustomRules.js script that comes with Fiddler. The only custom thing added is the "gzip and deflate" rule, which I coded myself, and I can guarantee you that it does only what I wrote and nothing else. If you don't believe me - it's just a JavaScript source code file and it's not obfuscated in any way, so feel free to open it in any code editor (or even notepad) and see the code for yourself.

The only thing worth noting is that you should never expose the port opened by Fiddler to the global Internet. Usually it's not an issue because your router blocks incoming connections unless you explicitly redirect the port, but it's still worth mentioning, because if the port is exposed to the Internet, it means that bad actors could use your computer as a proxy to hide their IP address. Anyway the best practice is to close Fiddler when you're done using it to avoid any such issues.

Did you extract the script file?

It's compressed in an obscure format.
As I said, both 7zip and WinRAR can extract it.

I keep getting Internet Connection failed on my ps3, does anyone know why?
Make sure you've enabled remote access to Fiddler and that Windows Firewall does not block its port.

If you followed the steps in the tutorial, it is possible that your PS3 has the Proxy configured but not running in your PC.

Try configuring again the network settings in your PS3.
 
I fixed my internet connection issue, but when I try and go to ps3toolset.com, I get DNS lookup for "ps3toolset.com" failed. System.Net.SocketsException No such host is known
Can someone please assist me?
If the Internet connection test was successful it means you probably have a typo in the URL. Double check the address.

ive got both rules checked but am getting "this page cannot be displayed (80710028)" any ideas?
You might have forgotten to enable HTTPS decryption.
 
Hi, I'm new to trying to jailbreak the ps3, I have watched every jailbreak video and followed every step and keep getting stone walled.
I have a 4.90. I just downloaded fiddler 4.6, and I can not even get the file to run. What should I do from here?
 
where is the attached file at i cant find it, in the script file i see browserPAC and CustomRules theyre both javascript files and i dunno what to do from here

The file you need is attached to this thread on the original post. If you scroll down to the bottom of what Niq posted, you will see it there. That is what you use to overwrite the CustomRules script already in there that will provide the rule you need for it to work.

no its enabled , if i exit out of fiddler should both rules stay on , im wondering if i did something wrong there

I have explained it here.

I worked it out!
Step 9 says: " Extract the attached file using 7zip or WinRAR into that folder and overwrite the existing file (you might want to back it up somewhere first)."
However, there is no such file in the scripts directory of Fiddler. Make sure to backup the 'SampleRules' from the scripts folder of Fiddler and delete this file. Then copy in the 'CustomRules' from this thread's attachments. In the Script folder of Fiddler, now rename this 'CustomRules' file to 'SampleRules'. Now verify that you have only file in the scripts folder named 'SampleRules.js'.

Thanks @NiQ

Please read this. I explained it in great detail. The info in step 9 is incorrect. In short:
  • You should delete the ' SampleRules' from the Script folder of Fiddler and RENAME the ' CustomRules' you downloaded here from this thread to ' SampleRules' and then proceed to copy it in the Script folder.

For everyone who gets the "page cannot be displayed (80710028)" message on ps3toolset :
OR
For everyone who cannot see the rules in Fiddler:

Step 9 says: " Extract the attached file using 7zip or WinRAR into that folder and overwrite the existing file (you might want to back it up somewhere first)."

However, there is no such file in the scripts directory of Fiddler.

My updated guide:
9a) Delete the 'SampleRules.js from the Fiddler's 'Script' folder (Make sure to backup the 'SampleRules' somewhere).

9b) Then copy in the 'CustomRules' from this thread's attachments into the 'Script' folder of Fiddler.

9c) Now rename this 'CustomRules' file to 'SampleRules'.

9d) Now verify that you have only 1 file in the scripts folder named 'SampleRules.js'.

Hey I tried again and made sure everything was set up exactly as the directions say, but I still get the dns error, do you know any other fix?

It seems fiddler works out differently basing on PC properties maybe.. because after several fails in my fiddler to bring the required second rule, I downloaded the custom rules from the post's attachment and extracted the file to script folder thereby having 2 files named: "BrowserPAC" and "CustomeRules"
I didn't rename anything and it worked smoothly

In my experience the black screen is usually down to no blu ray drive connected, not connected properly or not married to the system.

Bonjour a tous je viens encore vers vous car même avec des informations à jour malheureusement je n arrive toujours pas au résultat dit plus haut donc je pense repasser sur HEN à la place de passer sur le CFW merci
