PS3HEN PS3HEN - Official Release Thread (Homebrew Enabler for the PS3) v3.5.0 (4.93 support)

[DaredevilDiaz58]

This is a known problem with outdated webMAN-MOD. You can place a blank "boot_plugins.txt" on a USB drive and then load HEN. After it loads, update your WMM package with pkg manager, install new WMM and reboot.

This is addressed in next 3.2.1 update

I dont have webman and I never had, so it couldnt be that the problem

try using the file on usb anyway. other plugins could have problems also, in theory.

So I tried installing hen again on the xploit website, when I pressed the auto install hen button on the page suddenly I enable hen. I dont know what happened. Another doubt I have is where can I find the latest_hen_installer.pkg file. Can somebody explain?

 

[Coro]

suddenly I enable hen. I dont know what happened

the normal and hen auto installer both enable hen and then use it to download the pkg. the alternate and lmn7's AutoHEN do not use hen to install itself.

where can I find the latest_hen_installer.pkg

on ps3xploit.me site, click on PS3HEN and then your firmware version. finally click on HEN Installer PKG.

Thanks for answering my questions. Can you explain what is the function of the P3T file that is downloaded?

category_game.xml > line 33 > Hen Enabler > src= xmb://localhost/dev_hdd0/hen/xml/hen_enable.xml#hen_xmb

hen_enable.xml > module > hen_xmb

The file is empty !!!

The file is surely not empty. Check the pkg. That XML is one of them that mappath redirects.

That is just the PS3HEN.BIN payload renamed to p3t to allow download from browser, for installer only.

When it gets downloaded everytime does it override the previous one or does it use space on the harddisk?

If you run the installer multiple times, the file gets deleted and redownloaded each time. You don't need to do that on every boot, however. The "Enable HEN" button in XMB does not need this file.

Yeah, you can overwrite it. Once hen loads , it will delete previous p3t, if it exists.

Yes but the problem I have now is that the enable hen button on XMB freezes every time maybe somethng I did whe I tried installing a store, so I have to use the other method of the xploit webpage

We don't provide any support for those who installs "stores" they use a modded category_game.xml with old "hen enablers" so that's why you are having problems.

Reinstall hen via the official website and you're good.

 

[esc0rtd3w]

The file is empty !!!

To be more clear, here are the remapped files

Package Manager and HFW Settings (Exists on FLASH, mapped to HDD0)

HEN Enable (Hides on XMB Refresh) (Exists on HDD0, mapped to FLASH)

Payload (main.c)

Any clue why i'm still having KP if the source file of map_path doesn't exist?

its because the flash to flash mappings dont work properly

 

[LuanTeles]

its because the flash to flash mappings dont work properly

Flash to flash works only in the AAA folder, except for xmls that can't be mapped in any location from flash, only flash to hdd and vice-versa.

the mappings are working fine, i meant

I'm using this check to only do the mapping if the file is in the AAA folder, but it seems that if the file doesn't exist it still tries to map it, is there a problem with the code I'm using?

if((cellFsStat("/dev_flash/vsh/resource/AAA/wboard_plugin.sprx",&stat)!=1))
    {
        map_path("/dev_flash/vsh/module/wboard_plugin.sprx","/dev_flash/vsh/resource/AAA/wboard_plugin.sprx",FLAG_MAX_PRIORITY|FLAG_PROTECT);
    }
