PS3 Multiman-PS3 System Firmware

[O_o_Harry_O]

Install multiMAN, then try applying this patch... I hex edited DATA0 and DATA1 to change 4.75 to 4.84
it will not detect 4.75 properly, but 4.84 should be detected

In other words, I changed:
40 98 00 00 (4.75 in IEEE 754) to
40 9A E1 48 (4.84 in IEEE 754)

Here is a floating point to binary converter if you need to change it to other value (e.g. 4.85 -> 40 9b 33 33)

Thank you so much, it worked.
so the only difference is it shows 4.84, right?

The patch detects 4.75, 4.83 or 4.84 as 4.84, the one that says 4.84 HEN shows that constant label on any version, but internally it detects 4.83 or 4.84 as 4.75

Display Firwmare Version fixed thanks to @aldostools i decompile files from multiman HEN fixed version by Joonie and Edit version also to display 4.84 and 4.83 and add the changes to update history option hhh funny

 

[aldostools]

So 4.84 display version is fixed but what you mean exactly by saying it will not detect 4.75 properly ! does it show ?? or 9.99 ? or blank

I mean 4.75 will display as 4.84.

mM will detect 4.82, 4.81, 4.78, 4.76. If none of these the default is 4.75. All theses versions have the same offsets in LV2. mM do not identify 4.83 or 4.84, but they work because the offsets are the same.

I only changed the default to 4.84 instead of 4.75.

Dude, I Updated it but it still says i am on 4.75.
The main issue is some games are created for 4.82 and higher and whenever i want to load the game it always asks me to change it to my 4.75.
What do you suggest?

This was the real problem
The fact that it was displaying a wrong version did not matter much because was just something visual

But when you try to boot a game that required a firmware higher than the installed version it shows that warning advising you to patch the EBOOT.BIN etc... and this was not really needed

*As far i been reading... the only game where it was happening this is FIFA19

yes i know cause LV2 didn't change since 4.75 thats why it still show 4.75 but i think it can be CFW independant right ?

Added to your Fifa19 problem just dance 2018 had the same issue

for those who want to see that 4.85 in multiman install this pkg (remember this is not a patch to show correct fw version as only @deank have the source files)

Thanks man! removed the frustration I was dealing with for a while

Hi aldostools! Sorry to bump an old thread. But what offset or location do you edit these? I searched for hex value 40 9A E1 48 in your patched DATA0 and DATA1 files in HxD and cannot find it. I want to change it to 4.86 -> 40 9b 85 1f.

 

[aldostools]

I mean if you patch the default "4.75" with "4.87" and you use CFW 4.75, it will show "4.87" instead of detect 4.75 properly.

Yeah i already notice it at that time hahah its been long since i've touched ps3 stuff

Thank you Louay! It's been awhile since I touched the PS3 too! I should have known that DATA0 and DATA1 were encrypted files. I was able to decrypt, edit them, and resign.

Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the paypal donation pop up on v04.85.01 when you start it? I respect deank, developers, have donated in the past, but I don't like getting the popup every single time. It's almost like subliminal messages. I suppose it might not be possible without the source, anyways, thought I would ask, and mean no disrespect! I was able to edit the message in DATA1 and just changed it to "Welcome to multiMAN!"

everything is workinf fine with this patch great job bro
