PS3HEN Can't enable/install HEN on my PS3 Super Slim - HFW 4.92

[RBFraphael]

Hi!

I've been using HEN for a long time, and I stopped on HFW 4.90 for over a year, since my PS3 broke (the classic wifi/bt issue on Super Slim models). I've fixed it and restarted from scratch, everything.

I brough an 1TB SSD, installed HFW 4.92, installed HEN through ps3xploit.me, everything was working fine for over a month.

Today, my PS3 isn't enabling HEN anymore. Tried over 20 times, with and without R2 and/or L2 pressed (to disable plugins etc), stills not working. I've tried reinstalling 4.92 HFW, and, now even installing HEN isn't working. I keep getting "HEN Failure! Restart PS3 and retry!" error on browser, and, on the logs, there's only one line, that says "checkMemory 000000008fd8".

I don't really want to re-do everything from a "full scratch" (removing SSD from PS3, plugging it on my PC, formatting it, installing OFW, then HFW etc) only because I have spent over two days sending my games from PC to PS3 through FTP and webmanMod (even though wired connection, it's very slow). But, if re-doing everything from scratch (also formatting the SSD) is the only way, I'll do it

Can someone help me, please?

Additionaly, if someone knows some way that I can connect my PS3 SSD to PC, to install games faster than using FTP connection/webmanMod, I'll appreciate if that guy share it's solution

Thanks!

Sometimes when HEN installer fails, what I do is use an alternative HEN installer.
You don't need to do everything from scratch. You can simply reinstall HEN without formatting everything. Your data will be safe. Just download the official PS3UPDAT.PUP from Sony, transfer it to a USB drive, and update the PS3 from recovery mode. Then install the HFW 4.92 then HEN using the alternative installer.

I tried reinstalling everything from scratch just to avoid any issue, thinking on some kind of system/HEN files corruption.

But I've found the issue, but I don't know why is this happening.

The issue is Internet Connection. After a lot (really, a lot) of tries, tests, HD/SSD changes, formatting, reinstalling etc... I could install HEN, but enabling it was another pain. Over 20 tries without success, just like it was initially. Accidentaly, I've disconnected the ethernet cable, and didn't connected it to wifi. For some reason, HEN stared working fine. Every time I tried to enable it, it enables successfully. But, when I noticed that my ethernet cable was disconnected, after reconnecting it, HEN stopped working, again. After some tests, I realized that, with internet connection, my HEN can't enable. But, when I disable internet connection (through Settings -> Network Settings > Internet Connection), it enables without any issue, and on first try.

Do you know (or someone else) why isn't HEN enabling with internet connection? In fact, it isn't a problem for me, since I'm not playing online games, and I only need internet/network connection when I want to navigate on PS3 filesystem through FTP on PC. But I'm very curious about that, since it wasn't behaving this way before.

Thanks.
