Here are some usefull patches for the ones that wants to apply them on older FW (or use old explorer to make some old rco mods compatible)

@Thanks to @Evilnat for the patches and @aldostools for porting them to 4.84 DEX (Works on all fw between 4.82 and 4.88) , I also ported them via HEX for 4.82-4.88 by looking at the pattern between both codes provided by Aldo and Nat, i tested and they worked.

@Evilnat by trying a similar approach can we enable the hidden Debug menu in browser (Requires a buttom combo), Debug Settings on CEX enabled by default, debug web browser options by default and so on?

I wonder if there are hidden settings/options somewhere.

TBH I'd rather not have debug menus enabled by default cause it's the most convenient method of determining whether your console is QA-flagged or not.
 
@Evilnat an interresting patch should enable the option Display HDD Free Space/ Fake Free Space to work on CEX, it works in CEX impose_plugin.sprx but the impose plugin will only display the info on in-game impose screen when the system is on DEX.


So
(bl GetReleaseTarget) method will also work if patched in impose_plugin.sprx


so if the user enable it via debug settings while on CEX it will work, intead of just when they switch to DEX

Can you tell me what the string is called exactly?
 
4.89 CEX (Evilnat 4.89 has it already applied)

Do you have 4.88 DEX?? Was it leaked?
That's the first time I even hear that there was a 4.88 DEX, even internally at Sony. I'm pretty sure official development for the PS3 had ceased long before 4.88 was released.

I think it was meant to be the custom made 4.89 DEX, since it has the same offsets as the official 4.84 DEX. As far as I know, the DEX kernel in 4.89 is supposed to be more or less the same (file) as 4.84, right? Except for some patches to load 4.89 modules.

Yes, that's why I ask. I was surprised to see "4.88 DEX" on his post.

If I recall correctly, I remember to have seen a 4.88 with DEX modules by Citria Mulia.
But I think it is 4.84 Rebug spoofed to 4.88 with several mods.

I don't know about 4.89 DEX, but I analyzed Citria Mulia's CFW 4.88 and what confused me was that the DEX modules look like 4.84 DEX but the timestamp in DEX kernel was updated too. :confused:
