Moral of the story here really is:
Don't cheat online
Don't mod lobbies online
Don't use rtm tools(they steal your idps)
Don't come here crying when you get caught and can't figure out how to unban your system.
We constantly preach the basic risks associated with just going online on cfw in general around here. No one listens because all they are concerned about is getting their pirated copies of gta5 and blops2 to work with modded eboots....
What is the point of getting back online on your cfw console when you already have another that can? You will get banned again, it's only a matter of time. You should feel lucky they didn't ban your psn account and more importantly, EVERY! System tied to that account. It has happened many times here.

Yup got me way back in the 3.55 days and lost hundreds of games. All my PSP, PSX, PS2 & PS3 games gone at one time. Luckily I was able to reactivate them with ReActPSN. I only ever used the PS Store and Netflix back them no online play. So I play it safe now and no issues in over 8 years.

I got banned for unknown reasons, though it's possible I accidentally entered multiman while online. it affected four systems, because I was naive to think I would never be banned, so I used the same account on all systems. I've since remedied that. I lost no content, no saves, but I lost all trophies on all systems. oh well, not a big deal I guess. that's one reason I wanted to go 100% legit with a superslim 'til I had account issues with being unable to buy anything;
Never got banned, not once in 14 years & despite having used risky setups at times & no ban protection tools. I used psnpatch for idps spoofing & custom syscall management for a brief period of time then stopped altogether.
In truth the idps spoofing itself has never been proven to be 100% safe despite having been used extensively, we don't have the data necessary to draw any conclusions.
I am not a very big PSN consumer anyway & I don't mess with PSN services ie I don't use game mods or game cheats because I know they seriously piss off server admins, understandably so. And I just don't play gta5/bo2/cod online from my CFW consoles, period. Lucky for me I don't like COD & BO2 anyway so it's no great loss for me.
Afaik STLcardsWS has never been banned either, probably for the same reasons.

I remember bits got banned for unknown reasons. I think he said all he did was download crunchyroll. that's how we found out the idps has the minverchk as part of it (8th byte actually), because he used his 3K system's using the dumping tool, and it said something like 4.20 as his minversion on a cfw console.
That's the thing when you use experimental setups, you are exposing yourself to bans, seemingly for no reason.
IDPS spoofing (especially permanent spoofing) has a wide ranging impact & technically speaking it can be detected in a number of ways, like so many other ps3 hacks, if not all.
That might have been what caused bits to be flagged & banned, or it might have been something else, it's like I said, we don't have the data, only a number of suppositions & assumptions and a few ban reports, not always trustworthy or complete.
And remember about 3 or maybe 4 years ago how server side PSN checks were no longer working for over a year or so?
That had an impact as well & it confused people, making their reports somewhat skewed. Many got banned the moment the checks became functional again, not understanding why as they didn't do anything they had not already done many times during the previous months without consequences.

I permanently installed the IDPS as all my content stopped working anyhow. I did take my IDPS from another CECHB-01 as you can tell if the IDPS doesn't match to the system that is using it. Been trouble free since then but I don't mod games or even like FPS so I am good. Had a PS+ account simply for the PS3/PSP/Vita games but play quite a bit of Bloodborne and Dark Souls online nowadays. Think I like it as there is NO VOICE CHAT!!

you and your bloodborne.
as you know, I bought the game, because you suggested it to me, and it was on sale for like $5 or so. I still have it, just haven't played it. is that sacrilege? 
That's the safest permanent spoof you can do, we still don't know whether it's 100% safe at all times or not, but it's definitely the safest way & for the time being, the only recommended way to spoof the idps permanently.
The problem remains, how many users do that? Over 90% must buy their idps so they don't have a clue what they are using.
That's another reason why it's difficult to trust many ban reports.
Maybe a tool like idpset would need to validate the idps before allowing the swap, it could try the minver algo & if the firmware version doesn't match, reject the idps swap, giving those users no other option than dynamic idps spoofing which is a little less impacting???
It could give users the option to force the swap but with appropriate warnings regarding the impact & possible consequences..

This IDPSet tool, is that not the same as using webmanMOD to set the idps? When i set it with wmm I even go back and check it with cfw tools to see if it is detectable and it fools the tools. (Chuckle... Fools the Tools...). Anyway, wanted to check in, since I know how you all enjoy all the wonderful problems I bring with me for you to troubleshoot. As a matter of fact, let me see what I have in the old bag of problems today. Hmmm, oh yes. This is a good one. As I mentioned before, I have been enjoying HEN on my superslim, along with a little sprx menu and freebie modloader I have been playing with for months. It was no extortionmods, but it was a fun little toy to have and had some protection against malmos. (Thats my word for malicious mods.) Last night, after a reboot, it started acting funny. Granted, I was playing around with some of the devtools, creating backups, and other stuff. I felt it was time to clear my cache, so I did it via the browser menu, and went down the line clearing everything, starting at cookies and moving right down to history. When I rebooted and loaded the game, it didn't load as it would with mods loaded, but loaded normally. So i went back to MM, opened my backup folder and loaded my mod. When I booted this time, I got an error that the system was not able to find data for the game. I freaked a little, but knew I could fix that, because I backup the backups for all my backups. Once I got the eboot replaced, and restarted, I was certain everything would rock n roll. No dice. I got the dreaded 80029350 error, problem with the eboot. Well, I'd fixed that before, so I felt like it was only a matter of working it out with a cool head, but after a couple hours of it, and finally resorting to complete deletion of the game, and any saves associated with it, I sat for an additional 3.5 hours watching one of my many game backup installations creep into existence as it reinstalled from the folder where I keep the emergency stuff. After many, many terrible curse words, a good strong drink, and absolutely no patience for technology, it was ready. Fired it up, game loaded cleanly and beautifully. Moved onto loading the toys, and upon bootup, same freaking thing! Error 80029350 eboot error. What the bleeping hell is going on? I am only a mite's crotch hair from deleting the entire hard drive and starting from dirt scratch. Can anyone clue me in before I make what could possibly be one of the biggest mistakes I could make in this endeavor? Thanks for your input, and all the experience and know-how you all always devote to each and every member. Don't ever think it goes unnoticed. You guys rock! Whether you can help me or not.
No it is not the same thing.
Idpset changes the idps permanently in the 2 Flash memory regions where it can be found ie eid0 & eid5 regions.
On the other hand, wMM changes the idps in memory (in RAM, not in Flash memory chip), it's enough to fool a number of features because they don't extract the idps themselves but reuse copy(ies) of the idps stored in RAM at boot time.
But there are system features that do extract the idps from the Flash memory chip & which a wMM or other runtime spoofs cannot fool, only a idpset spoof may impact those features.
1. Using game mods online is always a bad practice unless specific game servers where all is permitted can be used, in every other case, it kills the game to varying degrees.
2. The more you f#ck with game servers, the worst TCs & gaming conditions you will get in the next update or release, it's a never ending cat & mouse game and that might be technically acceptable when you have the skills to deal with consequences yourself but it's definitely not if you rely on others to sort you out.
3. Using any custom code on consoles should be considered unsafe. When the code is open source, you may usually rely on others having vetted it but when it's closed source, you basically don't have a clue what you are running & trust is not exactly a commodity you can buy easily.
If one must buy stuff made by others, it probably means one can't write it & is even less likely to be able to reverse engineer it.
idps theft is likely to be only the tip of the iceberg imho, if you already started ripping people off, why stop there when you can run anything you want with hardly any risk of detection?

Well there are ways to sniff out if it is infact taking your cID but as you said if someone has to pay for that then chances are it may be a little out of their reach. When the first jailbreak (hate calling it that) came out there was a PSP emu you had to pay for. Granted it was quickly circumvented but nobody actually bothered to try out the app is it caused a brick we couldn't fix for quite a while until hardware flashers came around. Same stupid stuff happened in the Vita scene. Moral of the story is don't just trust software out there. Even if you did read from someone else cuz they might not have noticed either.

indeed. that's the main reason I used AuroraWright's yamt install, which is a fork of the original. I'm familiar with her work on luma on the 3ds, and it's worked out very well (no issues). it doesn't create the options in settings as it does it automatically. I think it assumes sd2vita is ux0, and it only mounts uma as the memory card if one is inserted, which I don't have one.
seems like people will install anything as long as it's easy without thinking about where the app came from. it's like installing questionable stuff on your pc, which I'm sure most wouldn't do, at least not deliberately. not a lot of forethought is made when it comes to console hacking though, very little reading too. lots of people don't make nand backups or backup important files at all. I've helped several people who've made that mistake.

Yeah, I knew that. I have a tool that (if you believe the hype) checks mods for stealers. I'm not so sure it's 100% accurate, because it has yet to find anything malicious, so I'm starting to think it's bogus. No way I haven't picked up at least one bootlickin' virus with all the crap I've downloaded trying to beat the system. I just don't get how it's so easy for some, and I catch pure hell doing the simplest of things. It worked fine when I was on rebug. Maybe I should downgrade and go back to rebug. Maybe I should drive down to the lake and see how many skips I can get out of these two consoles one night when the water is as slick as glass.

I wasn't going to reply to anymore threads because it hasn't really went anywhere but a suggestion here and there and no one is hearing what I am saying, maybe just picking a line to reply to and then throwing a bunch of lingo at me that might as well be ancient swahili, because I don't really get it. But if it makes you feel good about yourself, flibbiti jibbiti, pop pop, boing, newfangled doohicky. I don't use mods to cheat, so stop saying that. I use mods to unlock the things that Rockstar and PSN took away, and I don't think it's fair to those people who are trying to enjoy the game (no mods) and are being harrassed by people who think they are god because they have malicious skid menus and like to boot people and disable accounts. You should see my inbox. It's full of people begging me to get back online to help them or some punk ripped their bank account or disabled their guns. I thought it was time they had a little competition, so I gave it to them. Was working out pretty good too, up until now. But I dont need to cheat. I don't cheat. I didn't even use any of the story mode cheats to pass levels. That is totally NOT what the mod thing was about.
