PS3 Bypass activation limit on OFW 4.88?

So im on OFW 4.88 and i have hit the limit of active PS3 consoles (2), is there a way to bypass this so i can still play PKG games without activating, or will i have to create a new PSN account to restore the limit back to 2?

You can install HFW+HEN (or CFW if your ps3 model supports it), backup your act.dat + idps + rif or get the RAP files using Apollo Save Tool, psnpatch or ReActPSN.

If you got act.dat + idps + rif, convert them to RAP in the PC, the copy the RAP files to X:/exdata in a pendrive.
If you got the RAP files directly, copy them to X:/exdata in a pendrive (if they are not already there).

On the new PS3, create a new PSN account and activate it. Then install HEN or CFW, copy the exdata folder to /dev_hdd0/exdata

Now you can play your games in your new PSN account on the other PS3.

If you installed HFW + HEN, you technically are on OFW if you don't activate HEN.
 
yeah im on evilnat 4.88 atm made a new account to activate it works fine, but ill save the thread for when i need it again thanks for the help aldo big fan of your work on the homebrew scene dude.
