Hello, I try to use the bg toolbox - after clicking "download patch" and long wait, error "80710D23" is shown.
Tried both .net and mirror, same issue.
There is no mirror for the PS3 Toolset, neither official or unofficial, the only access is via the official URL:
** www.** ** www.ps3xploit.net > D... (NEW URL = http://ps3toolset.com)/bgtoolset
The 0x80710D23 error is a SSL error meaning that the network socket used for SSL comms is in a blocking state for some unknown reason.
It's an error that I have never had myself & that has never been reported to me before now.
To confirm that there is no issue with the server or whatever, I just tested the patch download features at my end & everything works fine.
FYI, there are 3 ways to apply a patch with the PS3 Toolset, you can:
1. Use the context menu to download the patch as file onto a ps3 storage device, then load the downloaded patch file into the Toolset & finally apply it.
2. Use the context menu to load the patch file directly from https & apply it, it is the recommended way.
3. Get a valid no-fsm patch file specific for your firmware version from another source such as littlebalup"s PyPS3tools repository on github (in the pyps3patcher folder). Obviously, the available patch file from the master tree will be for fw 4.86, if you need an earlier patch (4.82 to 4.85), you can use the github interface to check the history of the patch file & get hold of the earlier versions.
Load the patch file with the PS3 Toolset, it will be checked automatically & if found to be valid, you may apply it.
Note that you should always use the PS3 Toolset's Flash Memory Manager in its safe "strict mode", don't disable "strict mode" to enable context menu features previously disabled otherwise you also disable the safety checks & risk a brick if you make a mistake.
