I found the method :

YOU MUST INSTALL YOUR BACKUP ON ON THE INTERNAL HDD§§ AND YOU DONT HAVE THE PROBLEM (eboot.bin) IT WORKS FINE!! IT SEEMS HAVE A BUG WITH EXTERNAL HDD!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lord Spectre:
Because turning off wifi I loose the connection with the PS3 (FTP). Cancelling autologin could be an option, but are you sure the update wasn't checked when the PSN connetion was not established? :confused:

I'm not really sure about that!!! :rolleyes:

No way, without DNS (or with a fake one) I'm not able to download for example the homebrew update or other app update...

Is so hard to discover playstation.net IP ??

For sure the server doesn't reply to ping and doesn't allow name resolving... :confused:

What you're refering for ? Method for what issue? :confused:

=============================

Well, could someone advice me on why the "original" Backup Manager doesn't recognize any games on internal HDD ???

I copied via FTP one game (ripped by my brother from his original disk)... When I starts Backup Manager without external HDD I can see only the original bluray inserted and there's no way to see the transferred games!

However I respect the normal directory (\dev_hd0\games\game_id) and check the compatibility list for the game... but still no success...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Error:
I tried 10 different games from my internal HDD and all do work except SSF4 it boots fine but the controller is disabled. I dumped and tried everything with the original BUM. The problems you guys are having might come from the fact that you dumped it on external and then put it on the internal. AFAIK the internal uses NTFS and external only supports FAT at the moment. Directly dump to your internal drive and there shouldn't be any problems as long as the game is in the compatibility list. BTW Kane and Lynch 2 is said to not work in the list but it works for me, so try for yourselves.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RenVilo:
Ok so I updated to Leo_RADIO_2.12.50.02_2

Now I can boot into winmo with my HD2 and into Android BUT my WinMo sucks.. I can't call or receive calls.. WTF.. What should I do?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zingle:
when you load the back up it is meant to drop you to home screen then you go to the disc and the backup should be there ready to play
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lord Spectre:
MMM! I'm not properly sure, but my brother backup the game on internal disk because "Ridge Racer 7" has some file bigger then 4GB so unsupported by FAT32! Then copy it by FTP.....

In this case I need to put RR7 into my internal disk in the following directory:

/dev_hdd0/game/"GAMEID"

But as already said Backup Manager doesn't recognize it!!! Maybe I miss something on directory name!!! Or maybe it's simple impossible to put into internal HDD via FTP! Maybe the only way is backup from original disk!!!

Well I hope B.M. will support NTFS soon!!! ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tiendatcon:
Can you help me on how to put the backup game into the internal HDD ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lord Spectre:
Well, I had the same issue, (just check 2 posts ago). And it was my fault! But nobody reply me so I need to fix it myself!!! :mad:

To reply to your question, first of all, you need to install the FTP Homebrew. You can find my upload here with all homebrews:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8070277&postcount=411

Then, after start FTP Server just connect with FTP Client using anonymous user and move to the following directory:

/dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345/GAMEZ/

LAUN12345 is the original Backup Manager if you have MF2 stealth B.M. you should have: BLES00683 (EU version)

GAMEZ: If you don't have this directory, just create it

Create now a subdirectory under /dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345/GAMEZ/

name this sub directory as GAMEID. For example create following directory for GOD OF WAR III: BCES00510

You can check other Game ID Here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps3/

Now you can UPLOAD your game under /dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345/GAMEZ/BCES00510 respecting the BluRay structure:

PS3_GAME (directory)

PS3_UPDATE (directory)

PS3_DISC.SFB (file)

So at the end you should have:

/dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345/GAMEZ/BCES00510/PS3_GAME/.....

/dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345/GAMEZ/BCES00510/PS3_UPDATE/....

/dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345/GAMEZ/BCES00510/PS3_DISC.SFB

Just ask me if you have any dubts!

Thanks a lot for your help.

I was using my HTC HD2 and put the game on my external HDD. and when I open the game, it won't mount.

Do you think it's because I put the game on the external HDD ? The game I tried to play is "Just Cause 2"

That's why I asked you how to put the game on the internal HDD.

Like you said above that "UPLOAD the game under the directory respect the blu ray structure. Can you help me exactly what to do right there ?

Sorry, I'm new to this.

I also downloaded ur file and I saw the file "psfreedom.ko" where do I need to put this file on my external HDD ?

Thanks a lot.

Question

I have a quick question.

Everything works fine when i play games from my fat32 extern hdd.

But the only thing is that every game is installing game data before i can play.

He installs the gamedata on my intern hdd from the ps3. Is there a way when I play a game from the extern hdd that the game doesn't install the gamedata.

If not is there a way that when i play the game, that the gamedata saves on my extern hdd instead of my intern hdd.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Error:
@coddeest: Same from internal. It allways installs trophies at the start.

@Lord Spectre: So you got it working from internal?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lord Spectre:
What do you mean exactly with "it won't mount"?? There are many steps/settings to do, like: Did you instaled the Backup Manager? Did you create the following directory: GAMEZ on the root of your USB drive??? Did you copy the games under that directory? Doesn't matter what's the name of the game directory when you run the game from external HDD!!!

And then... When I said: "Did you respect the blu ray structure?" I mean, in the external USB drive you should have the following directory structure:

/GAMEZ/

/GAMEZ/GAME_NAME

/GAMEZ/GAME_NAME/PS3_GAME/.....

/GAMEZ/GAME_NAME/PS3_UPDATE/....

/GAMEZ/GAME_NAME/PS3_DISC.SFB

PS3_GAME and PS3_UPDATE are two directories from original bluray disk, and PS3_DISC.SFB is one file coming from the root of Blu Ray disk... So use the above structure when you copy games and don't create any subdirectories!!!

Then, psfreedom.ko shoul be copy on the root of the SD Card, not the root of Android... But if you download Gscript from the first post of this thread, it will update automatically!!

Off course! ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tiendatcon:
"It won't mount" here is after I did everything Such as: copy the game files to the folder on the root of my external hard drive which name is "GAMEZ" and I put it in GAMEZ/JUSTCAUSE2/-----> THE THREE FOLDER THAT COMES WITH THE GAME STRUCTURE LIKE YOU SAID ABOVE.

Also I already installed back up manager. I selected to the backup manager and loaded the back up game, then it took me to the home screen and I went to the Blu Ray disc under GAME on the home screen which supposed to be the game "JUST CAUSE" , but it appeared as the real blu ray disc that I put into the PS3 drive.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lord Spectre:
Just Cause 2 has problem with external disk. Check the compatibility list HERE (click me) first to try to install games on external/internal HDD! ;)

Not all the people have problem with JC2, but lot of them report the same issue you have!

Try with another game, as I understand, your procedure is ok! Clicking on Backup Manager game icon, you'll be redirect to xmb and then you'll see the disc icon where you can download the game!

And make sure you've firmware 3.41!!!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] secretgate:

Just Cause 2 runs perfect on external Hdd no prob here

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tiendatcon:
That's why I asked you how to put the game into the internal HDD so I can try play the game.

I also at firmware 3.41, I also have one more question.

That is what u said " UPLOAD your game under /dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345/GAMEZ/BCES00510", do we do everything on the FTP server ?

Sorry when I asked too much, cuz I don't have a change to try it on my PS3 yet, i'm still at work. I only have time at night, but I don't want to wait one more day to ask you. :)

Thanks a lot.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] secretgate:
yes thats correct

use ps3 ftp server and filezilla

is very quick 20mbit/s
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Lord Spectre:
You should use FTP server only for UPLOADING FILES. However you can also create directories. So, again to recap and semplify... The steps are:

1) Install Backup manager (you already did it)

2) Create following directory: GAMEZ under /dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345 (if you already rip at least one game, you should already have that directory)

3) Create another subdirectory named as GAMEID taken from games you wanna copy (check the site I already report you in the previous post). Example: BCES00510"

4) Copy all files from your PC to "/dev_hdd0/game/LAUN12345/GAMEZ/BCES00510" via FTP. Do not create subdirectory and remember to respect the blu ray structure (see above)

You're welcome... and no probs, I'm here! ;)
