PS3 Bounty for new alternarive to cfw enabler website

Not open for further replies.
It's like every year we have issues with these websites. And we are forced to wait months for developers to fix it. Is it really that difficult to make a reliable website to implement the oayload to enabke cfw install? Anyways... ps3toolset.com is down... AGAIN. Gives the error code as in the title of this post. Won't load on ps3 but will load on cellphone after 3 minutes of waiting and then the website looks incredibly broken. I'm going to attempt Mr Mario's flash writer method to avoid having to use this website ever again. Every year, sometimes multiple times a year it goes down. I'm sure yall are fed up and over it aswell. We need something better

I'm offering a $500 bounty to the first person that can create a new cfw enabler website. The current one used today goes down multiple times a year and we sometimes have to wait nearly 3 months or devs to fix it as they will not release their code to open source and allow others to fix their issue. Enough is enough. It's 2026 and we definitely have the technical means to create a new platform that will not fail as often as the current one does. Any takers?
 
@Tj's Tech Niche Such comments are demanding and irritating... I dunno from where conclusion came from that top tier scene reverse engineers couldn't write a simple web page. Did you considering it that pages are sometimes under DDoS attacks and ISP blocking access to them? Cherry on the top is SSL in PS3.

Evilnat flasher does support local hosting over a XAMPP server, see https://www.psx-place.com/threads/ps3xploit-flash-writer-4-93-hfw-req.49967/
also on 3 github.io hosted sites by evilnat, aldostools, and myself. BTW it is not evilnat's...same dev that made toolset also made original flash writer. updates by lmn7 and others but it worked okay before they came along (mainly safety improvements made by them).

offering a $500 bounty
where was that money when they needed half that much for 3 years of hosting fees for 3 websites?

they will not release their code to open source and allow others to fix their issue
do you know how to program in adobe flash? are you familiar with ps3 flash writing procedure? do you have hardware flasher to recover bricked ps3 when you make a typo? not as easy as you assume...

will be doing this method from now on due to website reliability.

1. so is the flash writer method open source then?
2. I've donated every year since I came across psx place. I'm a disabled army veteran on a fixed income provided by the VA for my disabilities and I cant donate more then what I currently donate. I wish I was rich and then I could make everyone here rich too but alas, taxes.
3. nope thats far out of my realm and im sure its difficult, hence why im offering a bounty for anybody who can bring something new online for the people and have it be more reliable and preferably open source so the community can take action if the server or connection goes down again in the future. I am familiar with some website building and coding user WordPress and python but that's far different.

Can you please realise that this is a couple of volunteers doing this for fun and no one is getting paid at all? Also as I said on the other post a alternative method exists, please read more before flooding forums with useless childish stuff
we are aware of other methods mate yet this has always been the easiest method and the devs have the coding on lock down because they do not want the community to fix any issues when they arise. they prefer to handle it themselves and thats puts the entire noob community on hold.
the do get paid from donations to support the website and the projects, so not sure how you come to that conclusion.
flooding the forum? I made one post on this topic. useless? how it it useless information that others can come here and see that others are having the same issue as them and that confirms they aren't doing anything wrong and its simply the website that's down? it seems that you are being childish mate.

this is purely another ssl issue for the website. this happened multiple times in the past and its a easy fix, yet the devs sit on it for months.

@MrMario2011 makes great videos, but no exploits. the flash writer was originally written by the same dev as toolset. the russian's stole his work so their method is really his too. same guy!

if you hate using his work so much, buy a hardware flasher! (if you can find one...)
When did I say I hate using his work? Dont put words in my mouth sir. If I didn't enjoy using the website, I wouldn't donate yearly to psx place and individual devs LMAO

This has been discussed already, over and over again. Complaining about releasing sources and hosting issues is getting tiresome and pointless, because it surpasses the devs.

It's simple: "don't like it, don't buy it". If you want a working tool, code it and release it yourself.

Thread closed.

I can save you a few hundred dollars or well more, go buy another PS3 console..

If this is a problem you run into alot, then may i ask why do you update your PS3 to OFW everytime ? OR could you simply be trying to use someone's else work they provide for free (that you complain about) for a personal profit?

PS3HEN is open source, CFW Flash Writer is open source, :sfun deadhorse:
