@aldostools my webman is working just fine BUT i really want to change the fan spped and if i do it works but my homebrew crashes the console.
turns off no red light
i have to use syscon then its all fine
is there a fix or?i already instal .19 hen fix and the same thing happens

At the moment there is not a fix... You can try setting manual fan speed to check if that works.

Currently webMAN is using the advanced poke to enable the set fan policy function and the original value is restored immediately as habib suggested. But it seems that Hypervisor don't like that.

Does the shutdown only happens with homebrews? Or also with game backups?

I could implement an auto switch to SYSCON mode when INGAME is detected, but I don't think that would help due I detect IN-GAME in a polling loop, and the timing detecting it would be an issue.

i have to use syscon

Dude can you get KH 1.5 Final Mix work with HEN? I've tried a lot of stuff and none of it works

It works fine with ManaGunZ + Cobra + BDMIRROR.

if you guys want the fan control works without having issues on homebrews and games. then just use .18 as your fan control and ftp. For your backups just use Iris manager or managunz. works fine for me.

I both have fan speed control while able to play backup games just fine. I dont use multiman(mmCM) since it always (sometimes it works fine, but if I run the game and exit it out it throws data corrupt on the disc icon again) gives me data corrupt on the disc icon. Of course managunz and iris manager works fine, though you will not see a disc icon on the xmb, you only need to insert any bd game disc on to the ps3 to make it work or just run the game in /app_home mount.

I too managed to start it ...

Game ID: BLUS31212

Spoiler

Contains 2 5GB BigFiles.
the bigfiles do not enter fat32 due to the 4gb limit (these files exceed 4gb) ...

Spoiler

if they are integers you can transfer them to Hdd0 via FTP, or with a USB NTFS hdd using the IrisMAN file manager!
if they are split (split) you can put the backup in a fat32 usb hdd and copy the game to hdd0 using multiman! multiman will recognize these files divided into several parts and will automatically join them during the transfer!

@aldostools
i am running webman 1.47.19 on hen.
i do not think i installed henfix pkg maybe i did. i download only new sprx file from github today 5 hours ago. i have no shutdowns so far. i am using auto fan settings with no major problems. running homebrew works.

before today i would get shutdowns with webman running homebrew even without auto fan.

so...i think it is fixed...at least for me.

 

[Coro]

if i click on webman setup from xmb my settings are there but if i start temp page from xmb then click on setup on that page then settings page show up but all checkboxs and textboxes for the settings are empty. the settings work and are saved if changed either way.

I FTP'd them to the GAMES folder but sorry I don't get what you mean by this do I have to FTP this large files again after FTP'ing the whole KH folder is that it or do I split these large 5 gb files like this if so how do I go about doing that?
Edit: thanks a lot to this community I got the Undub version to work

I assume you have installed the version which loads plugins from hdd0.

Here is what you should do:

1 - Get your plugin and place it in '/dev_hdd0/plugins/'.
2 - Add '/dev_hdd0/plugins/(your_plugin_file_name_with_extension)' in 'boot_plugins_nocobra.txt'.
3 - Transfer the new 'boot_plugins_nocobra.txt' to '/dev_hdd0/hen/'.

Theoretically this should do it.

(REMEMBER! BAD PLUGINS WILL FORCE A FIRMWARE RE-INSTALL)

Well, i did that, but i still can't use the wireless xbox receiver. So, how do i now if the plugin is fully loaded? also how do i use the ps3xpad with the receiver?. Btw, thanks for the help.

use psx image same region as your console
i has a cech 4000 japan import
NTSC/J game iso workfine but NTSC/U+PAL game iso black screen after lauch black disc icon
use patch-it to patch image of your game same region as console to solve that problem

p.s sorry for my poorly english

Hi friend!
Which game launcher are you using? your games are in iso or bin/cue format?

It will a BIG contribution to this thread if you post a tutorial!

Thank you!

I'm not sure why the shutdown is happening... it could be an issue with the control / capability flags of the sprx.
You could experiment resigning webftp_server.sprx with scetool using different flags to see if it behaves different.

Also verify that you're using the full edition... The installer normally installs the nonCobra edition in boot_plugins_nocobra.txt when Cobra/Mamba is not detected. Try entering the path manually in the txt.

good morning.
i have a 4000 series superslim
i installed hen easily but i have a few problems
-when launch multiman, sometimes my system turns off with standby light off (no red and need the button to be pushed twice to startup again )
or sometimes system hangs in black screen and need power off

-webman 1.47.17 does not control fan speed. and this is the main reason i nstalled it. when install 1.49 hen fix webman i have the control of fans but my hen payload failed after a few restarts and no working at all anymore.

could you help me with this?

 

[Fin9ersMcGee]

Well... I better climb out from the rock I've been hiding under and dust off my Ps3.

Super late to party but well done to everyone who made this possible

Hi. I'm using ManaGunZ + Cobra + BDMIRROR. It works fine with Kingdom Hearts. When I try try to launch FFX Remake ManaGunZ doesn't remember settings for that game - Cobra + BDMIRROR. What can I do?

Does anyone know if PSN react will work with hen?

 

[labsdj]

Irisman not work now on Hen 2.0 enabler! i trie and my ps3 power off now

It doesnt work in HEN. Just use the Habib's resigner to sign RAPS with your ACT and IDPS files.

Irisman not work now on Hen 2.0 enabler! i trie and my ps3 power off now

im using Irisman with HEN 2.0 and works perfect, what i have saw different is that with HEN 1.0 Irisman mounted the game in /app_game/ps3_game and there wasnt a disk icon on xmb, now with HEN 2.0 Irisman mounts the game as a disk icon and theres nothing mounted in /app_game/ps3_game, why this happens? i really dunno but the freezings, hard lockups and scary visits to recovery mode have ended at least for me. i have to say that i dont have webman installed, maybe is the culprit in your case.

amazing job with HEN 2.0 devs, your great!!

My Multiman is...incomplete...there's no BD-Emulation option, and some games ( Traisl of Cold Stell ) don't show...

I can boot kingdom heart HD 1.5 with ManaGunz, but after that, the folder of KH 1.5 will copy to the root of hdd0, then ManaGunz shows Error -1 and only can mount KH HD 1.5 only.
And I can only to move the PS3_GAME folder back to GAMES so that it can be fixed, any solution?
