Pinky’s PS3 Tutorials

So this is useless patch apparently... I personally never tested this patch, i didn't know is so ugly solution.

it's okay. I used HxD to hex edit in the patch and scetool to encrypt the file. it didn't cause any issues aside from the odd way the patch deletes the tier. it was worth it to learn something though. my thinking is that the system uses 00 and 01 to determine if the tier appears at all. could be in the xmb_plugin.sprx or even the vsh.self somewhere.

The blank space solution is really ugly :) I'm not familiar with hex editing files, so I have to wait for a tutorial.

I would write one if the solution worked better. u just need to look for the consecutive hex for whatever ur looking up (x39/x64 = 3964), then replace with all 0's. each tier is one after the other in the hex.

for anyone who wants to try/test, reencryption is easiest with scetool, just make sure u reencrypt as an internal vsh module which u can look up on ps3devwiki. self type = app (for app ldr or anything that has firmware associations) ; auth id = 1070000052000001 (for internal/vsh module) ; key revision = 1C (can be determined by official firmware file but changes with most if not all firmware; the reason for patching with mm despite keys being the same) ; self fw version = 4.78 (should be the firmware on even if creating a spoofer in order to decrypt from header). I hope that info is helpful.
 
[MENTION=3657]pinky[/MENTION] for.reencryption you can use original self as a base. Then you don't need to add manually any parameters.

Look at my spoof tutorial. There is a part about reencrypting self.

I wasn't aware of that. thanks! it makes sense for a spoofer since ur reencrypting back into the firmware that the system is on rather than the spoofed firmware.
 
I have look at categoryxml but never find the solution :hmmm:

Finally ,edit the exploreview solve the problem.

how can i know the current user in psl1ght? to replace file exploreview in the good directory 00001 or 00002 etc...

not sure how that solved ur problem, but I'm glad u managed to solve it. the only way I know to know which file goes with what is through the xregistry since it has ur profile names. is that what u mean?
 
I don't to know if the current user is for example Pinky but I want to know if the current user is the user of 00001 or 00002 user folder of exploreview.txt to make my universal pkg

I'm not sure on that exactly. each user has its own explore view. I think ps3devwiki explains how to fetch the current user with psl1ght with the vsh.self.
 
@pinky @Shaitan - just want to ask, is there a way to group gamedata according to album?
when we look at the games "game data" information (DLC, Update, Install Data)...
theres no entry asking for album name
(unlike on the actual game column, information is selected, we can change the "album" entry, then we can regroup them according to album)

so basically theres 2 changes needed for this to work...
enabling "album" entry on gamedata's information (so we can tag a certain album name of our choice)...
then enabling option to sort it out according to "album"...

will it work?

there's no way to do it by default or editing an xml. it may be possible by editing a sprx, but I'd need to know the hex string to change and what to change it to in order to do that. I assume sony didn't add that option since u weren't selecting the dlc to use like u would a game.

thanks. I've been redoing the tutorials since we don't have the aname/jumpto tags. they're still listed in there. I'm going to be using tabs this time to make them easily readable.

it actually started when @STLcardsWS showed me a template he did for one of my vita tutorials. it should look better with them all uniform. :D

Sounds good! Having all these tuts is a good thing to begin with, updating & improving them makes it all even better... [emoji5]️

Edit:
I almost forgot but while I am at it I should also add that I really enjoy the way @STLcardsWS organises his news posts as well.
Such a shame that Tapatalk doesn't render such basic things as Tables in a post! Never mind anything fancier...

Thanks pinky :) .. If you do not mind on some of the "PlayStation 3 Logo's" If applicable i might put a image (or video) of the subject at hand instead.

I did some minor changes in: ★ How To Open The System Information Menu ★ to give you an idea to what I am talking about
