UPDATE 1 (OCT. 11 2018) - With the release of OFW 4.83 portions of PS3Xploit have been patched, The team is looking at workarounds, STAY ON 4.82, DO NOT UPDATE TO 4.83 AT THIS TIME:

UPDATE 2 (MARCH -2019) HFW (Hybrid Firmware) Released - Allows for PS3Xploit Tools / Hacks (including HAN) to work for 4.84 (OFW) OFFICIAL FIRMWARE (See Here) Also the HAN Exploit was updated to v3.01 for 4.84 HFW support

dThe PS3Xploit Team has done it yet once again with an incredible breakthrough that has now just gone LIVE for everyone and as the recent teaser recently suggested it's for those later Slim & SuperSlim models who are not capable of using CFW (aka NoN CFW Compatible Models). While not a HEN (Homebrew Enabler) it's a volatile dose of "HAN" (short for etHANol). This version of the hack has evolved to offer something to every PS3 model now. All existing models will now have the ability to get PS3 games backup pkg installation and PS1/PS2/PSP emulators support among other features as outlined by developer bguerville who is going to take from here with this introduction of PS3Xploit v3.0 -- Codenamed: "HAN"

  • PS3Xploit Team is pleased to announce the official release of the PS3Xploit Tools v3.0 project nicknamed 'HAN'.

    PS3Xploit Tools v3.0 is a suite of 6 tools supporting both official firmware versions 4.81 & 4.82. The only pre-requirement to use HAN is to have an activated PSN user account.
    It's recommend not to use your main PSN account but rather a spare one.
    Users should create a new secondary user account on the PS3 then activate a new PSN account in it.
    This secondary ps3 account should be used to perform all the pkg installations. Then for regular gaming, use the primary user account.

    The principle behind HAN is quite simple, due to a vulnerability in the way npdrm content is managed, it is possible to resign game related files with custom keys, patch vsh & install resigned pkg from XMB.

    The first tool, on the PC side, ps3xploit_rifgen_edatresign.exe should be used to generate rif files and create new signed_act.dat. You should place the act.dat/idps.hex, previously dumped with HAN ACT/IDPS Dumper, in the resigner directory and drag matching rap file for your game onto the executable file. Then rename the new "signed_act.dat" to "act.dat" and place it on USB drive along with the new rif file. The files are now ready to be pushed to the PS3 using the HAN ACT/RIF Copier.

    ** It is recommended to resign all the pkgs that require Han enabler with this tool**
    ** Packages which are converts and packages which needs rif activation **
    **
    keep original act.dat in a safe place **

    On the PS3 side, the other 5 ps3xploit tools are:
    1. HAN Installer - Copies necessary system files to PS3 to run HAN.
    2. HAN Enabler - Enables the HAN patches
    3. HAN ACT/IDPS Dumper - Dumps current user profile user act.dat & PS3 IDPS to USB.
    4.
    HAN ACT/RIF Copier - Copies the resigned act.dat & generated rif file from USB to the current user profile.
    5. HAN Debug PKG Enabler - Provided optionally for users wishing to install debug pkg. Note that if you run this patch you will not be able to install any pkg resigned with the ps3xploit resigner for HAN anymore until you reboot!

    The 'HAN' project is solely relying on userland exploitation to provide digital backups support for the majority of PS3 Games as well as PS1/PS2/PSP Emulators (within the ps3 firmware) and the ability to install PKG files from USB. PS3 PKG Game backups need to be prepared using TABR like technique and only ps3 games having an available "game update" are supported.
    PKG files are installed from the Games XMB column, using a version of the Rebug Package Manager tweaked for this project. On USB of course, the FAT32 limitation of 4Gb is still in effect, it's a partition type limitation, nothing we can do about that. However workarounds using a local server can be used to remedy the situation if required.
    Important:
    To get best results initializing the exploit, remember to load the pages directly from a clean browser session. Never browse to an exploit page from other pages & never use a homepage other than blank or the exploit page you wish to use.
    We recommend to:
    1. Go to the ps3 browser homepage option & choose blank homepage.
    2. Create favourites to HAN Enabler & the other HAN pages you wish to use.
    3. Restart the browser.
    4. Use the favourites to access any page from complete scratch.
    5. Reload the browser between exploits.

in the resigner master folder or the rifgen master folder?
thats the new way that i did, you dont need rif copier of ps3 han v3 tools. only the dumper is needed

tut:
1.put the dumped files in ps3xploit_resigner-master/rifgen-master/
2.put raps in raps folder and delete previous ones(not needed)
3.run batch
4.install output pkg on secondary user that you created for ps3xploit v3

@bguerville fyi this is the new tut
 
TABR will not make a pkg for you however if you take the time to read the threads & tuts about it, you will understand how a game backup is prepared from disc files.
Once you can prepare the files, you can make a debug pkg to hold them, resign it with our pc tool, then enable debug pkg using our exploit file & finally install the pkg.

You can also check out CFW2OFW Helper.
so this is how to get games to work?

The last version of your resigner is good, no need rif copier for that, just install a pkg signed !
 
So, I've done everything and everything completed but in the end when I've put my signed pkg file onto the root of my FAT32 formatted usb stick and entered the package installer the package says RATCHET and the 2 arrows keep spinning in a circle. I've enabled HAN again after rebooting and copied the rif file name and everything, but i've not seen anyone with this problem. If anyone could explain I would be most grateful.
 
I need the resigner master but with 32 bit architecture since I only find it 64,
please help not all of us have pc with 64 bits
 
i have minecraft how to convert into pkg
Extract the iso so it gives you a structure with something like that (usually it'inside the PS3_GAME folder) :
xQgq5wX.png


Open Param SFO with this tool : http://www.psx-place.com/threads/param-sfo-editor-by-aldostools.320/
Rename the "PS3_GAME" folder with your TitleID

Now copy instal this tool : http://www.psx-place.com/threads/trueancestor-pkg-repacker-v2-45-by-jjkkyu.10067/

Copy your game to the "game" folder

Launch the repacker, choose "fast pkg"

Get your pkg in the "pkg" folder

Install it.
 
So, to my understanding that this:

Essientially is just dumping the .raps into the rap folder, dumping the act.dat with the .hex file also onto the rifgen-master folder then executing the batch file?
After that I just need to install the generated pkg?
During the process, after i resigned two .rap files the generated .rifs were compiled into the pkg, right? But the batch window had these lines:
C:\Users\XX\XXXXXX\......\rifgen-master\raps\XXXXXXXX....XXX.rif
The system cannot find the path specified.
0 file(s) copied
Leading to the resulted pkg size of 1kb. Is it safe to install that pkg?
 
i have a question if a have a pkg like this name of the game.FiXED.4.All.CFWs.[5083FD4E].pkg to enable dlcs that there is not rap a public it could run with these method or i need to have obligatory the rap to enable the dlc?
 
please help me , I'm totally lame for this, I read the instructions, and I could install the HAN enabler but I am stuck :(


  • I cannot understand most of the terms like what is what, becuse I never had a chance to install cfw.

    So few questions, please be patient
    1, can I copy my game from an original disc? How?
    2, Can I play with an original disc of ps2 game?
    3, I have a copy of a game, it has a folder and all files : it looks like this
    PS3_GAME\
    PS3_UPDATE\
    PS3_DISC.SFB
    how can I make it work?
    So if anybody have patience and time for me, please help me. Or maybe somebody experienced, not the devs (of course they don't have time for that) could make a guide for the beginners. Beacuse I'm sure more and more ppl will ask the same things.
    many many thanks, sorry for make it long!
Parte 1
 
troubleshoot... resigned rap....got rif....resign pkg as well? resign and rename like act.dat? or use orig pkg.? pkg was validated.

The idps.hex and act.dat must be outside the rap folder

If you still get error, move folders to e.g c:/resigner/rifgen-master/
 
please help me , I'm totally lame for this, I read the instructions, and I could install the HAN enabler but I am stuck :(


  • No puedo entender la mayoría de los términos como qué es qué, porque nunca tuve la oportunidad de instalar cfw.

    Tan pocas preguntas, por favor sea paciente
    1, ¿puedo copiar mi juego de un disco original? ¿Cómo?
    2, ¿Puedo jugar con un disco original del juego ps2?
    3, tengo una copia de un juego, tiene una carpeta y todos los archivos: parece que este
    PS3_GAME \
    PS3_UPDATE \
    PS3_DISC.SFB
    ¿cómo puedo hacer que funcione?
    Entonces, si alguien tiene paciencia y tiempo para mí, por favor, ayúdenme. O tal vez alguien con experiencia, no los desarrolladores (por supuesto, no tienen tiempo para eso) podría hacer una guía para los principiantes. Porque estoy seguro de que cada vez más gente le preguntará lo mismo.
    muchas muchas gracias , lo siento por hacerlo esperar!
