[REQUEST] Need a Guide to Installing PS3Xploit 3.0 "HAN" on PS3 Slim for Beginners

[jbuck1975]

So, I had just successfully installed and enabled HAN and the PKG Debugger on my PS3. How do I proceed with installing it with backup PS3 games in PKG format?

Put pkg in packages folder on usb. Then in debugger install

Any idea on how to split a pkg file into smaller parts for installation?

There's a tool. I'm not 100% sure but i think it's ps3tool

I found it. It's actually called "PS3Splitter."

Wait, do we need to drag and drop the .pkg we want to install to ps3xploit_rifgen_edatresign? If that's so that will explain why I can't boot anything, I'm getting the error 80010017, but I can install them, that's weird

I don't think that this tool will work with hen ps3 consoles you should try this one instead: http://www.psx-place.com/threads/pkg-linker-v1-0-scan-and-serve-packages-to-ps3-from-pc.16733/

Will this tool automatically split a pkg file that is bigger than 4Gb into smaller parts?

No, you can directly install pkg files bigger than 4gb without splitting them.

I guess I will have to personally try it first to know how it works.

Not sure if it's complete. But that's what I followed basically.

I found this video more comprehensive than the previous. I did not know why the former vid skipped a few steps.

Add the video to your first post so other people can find it easily.

I can no longer edit it.

Do you literally mean having the pkg files in a folder named "packages" on the root of the USB memory drive?

Yes. Then from xmb run debug and install

I've had two conflicting suggestions involving the installation of pkg files with HAN right now: one suggests not installing HAN Debug PKG Enabler because of the resigner app and yours being doing the complete opposite.

I'm still trying to consolidate the facts involving the procedure, so the topic is quite confusing for me at this point.

Any prior steps I should know if I would opt for the HAN Debug PKG Enabler route?

 

[dothackjhe]

I think I'm opting for HAN Debug PKG Enabler as "disabled" instead.

Question is: Is this the right procedure of installing a backup PS3 ROM on a HAN-enabled PS3?

1. Resign PKG backup with its rap file with PKG Resigner
2. Copy resigned "act.dat" and "rif" file to the root of the USB
3. Copy resigned rif file into the device via ps3xploit page
4. Install PKG file

I meant xmb menu go to package manager and install

Must the PKG to be installed go through the PKG Linker first?
