PS3 PS3Xploit Tools v3.0 "HAN" released NoN CFW Compatible Slim & SuperSlim Models)

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 **
  
  
  Resigner Tool Repo: https://github.com/PS3Xploit/PS3xploit-resigner
  

  
  
  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.

UPDATE (USEFUL LINKS)​

• [TUTORIAL] Convert PSX/PS2/PSP Games for PS3Xploit (v3.0) HAN
• HACKING THE PS3

 

Yup, 2nd account and i've enabled hen 2 times now.

Did you reboot after injecting the act.dat file? You can inject as many rif files as you want but injecting act.dat files requires a reboot to take effect.

 

Hey any news on the evolution of han into HEN.i know its early but can't wait to run homebrews

The only way for a hen to come out is if the 3000/ss could downgrade to 3.55 somehow for cfw.Thats pretty much the next step if we ever reach that point.

 

Yep but downgrades will never be possible since meltdr 2 would cause a brick (correct me if im wrong).

 

Afaik ps3's can only downgrade to the lowest out of the box firmware which is greater than 3.60 for the "UnHackables"

 

Yep but downgrades will never be possible since meltdr 2 would cause a brick (correct me if im wrong).

Well not a actual downgrade of course,but mabe somthing on the level of a ctr transfer,like how you could run 2.1 on a new 3ds which was a firmware not supported on there,which was a old method for extracting the otp and installing a9lh.My point is somthing similar could happen for the ps3 ss and 3000.

 

It would be miraculous if some how using this userland exploit the scenes devs would gain the latest ps3 keys to sign a real cfw for these models but thats almost impossible and well have to make do with han which is quite great

 

Try to keep it on topic guys.

 

Well i never owned nor experienced hacking a 3ds so can't tell much a bout that.

 

Did you reboot after injecting the act.dat file? You can inject as many rif files as you want but injecting act.dat files requires a reboot to take effect.

Okay so i reinstalled it again, resigned the pkg, resigned the rap file which gave out the rif file and signed_act.dat, renamed signed_act.dat to act.dat, put all of it to my USB and plugged to the PS3, enabled HAN and did the act/rif copier thing and i copied the files, i turned off the ps3 and restarted and enabled han again and launched the game and got 8001007 error during start operation again...

my usb has these contents :
act.dat
EP2002-NPEB00062_00-SARBATTLECARS001.rif
SARBC SIGNED.pkg

 

you have to enable hen each time

No idea why its not working for you since thats pretty much what you do,try a different game and see if you get the same problem.

NEVERMIND ! I GOT IT WORKING ! YES!

I had to check the game for updates and there was an update... and i downloaded it and now the game started working


Thanks for the help !

 

Hey I was wondering if once I installed HAN I could update and still keep my PSN games, if i can, do I need to reinstall the HAN? do I need a new signed act? Do I need to reinstall my rifs?

 

So I have a question and i know its my fault. I have 3 accounts with my ps3 and only one has psn games downloaded and installed. My question is why after this (was signed into other account for the act/idps and other processes) did my installed psn games stop working? Does copying the act files switch ownership to that person or just lockout everything and if so how would i get it all back without a full wipe?

 

I've had a few troubles getting some games to work testing this out, but I wanted to say massive thanks to the developers and everyone involved in this. It's brilliant and hopefully this is the foothold in the door that non-flashable consoles need to enable homebrew in the future.

 

You need to wait 20-30 minutes for the please wait screen to go away.When it does go back into your package manager folder and you should find the install bubble in the playstation network content folder.Install that,inject your modified act.dat and rif licence and you are good to go once you use your han enabler again.

Thank you man! Will se tonight
