[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fox244243904:
Hi i had the same problem.

Because many games won't run when they are emulated on PS3_GAME.

I have 2 versions in my SD card. A psfreedom build with hermes v3 that I use with Open manager 2.0 and a psfreedom build with peek / poke from page 1 that I use with the Orginal Backup Manager 1.0

So I can easy switch between the "bd version" and "without bd version"

And Heavy Rain works perfect with 2.0 Move Update =) and Orginal Backup Manager

I use Open Manager 2.0 with hermes v3 only for F1, Eyepet and NBA2k11

THANKS!!

Thanks fox244243904!

Thought about that too, now I also have 2 versions running for this problem. Would be nice if someone would build an open manager which can emulate to either PS3_GAME or the BD (let the user choose!).

Well perhaps in the future!

I got Assassin's Creed II to work from an external drive using my specifications. (Only game so far i've tried using the jailbreak)

Next on my list is F1 2010...

My specifications:

I installed the Androidbuild from post 1 (and updated it with Gscript), and i'm currently still using Open Manager 1.13.

I want to play F1 2010 and i was wondering what I have to do to get it working.

-Can I use Open Manager 2.0 without having to upgrade my PsFreedom to Hermes V3? (haven't upgraded to 2.0 because I thought I read somewhere you can't use any version of Open Manager above 1.14, without the Hermes V3-update).

-Can I play F1 from an external HDD?

I know these questions are asked before, but i've read the whole thread and I find it really hard to find a clear answer for my problem...

Thanks for all the help I'm hoping to get! :)

Finally managed to get things to work.

First had the black screen issue and then some crash to XMB but after applying the patch on page 80 I believe things started working!

PS: For some reason gscript didnt work for me. It would download the file and instead of placing it in the correct folder, psfreedom.ko would be placed in the root folder of the stick. I therefore had to push it manually and once that was done things started looking up!

hi there, you have to replace it in the following destination in the Android folder which is in your phone memory root.....

Android\root\system\lib\modules

thats it. good luck :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] KevinNash:
Humm, this folder doesn't exist bro, and there's no psfreedom.ko anywhere in the android folder...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] smfdmf:
TRY THIS WORKS FINE FOR ME

Here is little "HOW TO"

First download Android from link:

page 87

Then unpack and copy into root of your SD card.

Download update from link:

page 87

unpack and copy into Android folder.

Edit startup.txt

set KERNEL Image -> set KERNEL zImage

set cmdline "" -> set cmdline "rel_path=YOURANDROIDPATH"

YOURANDROIDPATH is path where is your Android folder. It sholud be on to root of your SD card.

So if the Android folder is on to root of your SD card, edit startup.txt like this:

set cmdline "" -> set cmdline "rel_path=Android".

That is it.

the root folder will be in the second download link.

sorry i can't post any links because i'm a new user... check out page 87

good luck again :)

F1 2010

Hi Guys,

I'm still on FW 3.15, using Open Manager 1.16 and everything seems to be working.

Except...

I have the F1 Disc, and when I try to boot it up, it asks for me to update to 3.41 (Obviously)

Tried copying it in patched mode to internal HDD, same thing.

I know it probably calls on API's from the 3.41, and that a simple replace with a 3.15 PUP, or deleting the update folder wont do much, but my question is: Is this something that can be resolved with a possible future version of OM, or is this something that only a major event like CFW (Think Prometheus for PSP) would solve?

Cheers!

Problem with games on 3.15

Hi Guys.

I have a problem. I use hd2 to jailbreak my ps3 fw 3.15 (to jailbreak I followed instructions on page 92). Jailbreak is OK, but i can't play any games both on internal PS3 HDD and on external HDD. I use backup manager, backup manager v.2, openmanager 1.16, openmanager 2 but games don't run. When I launch game in result I have black screen or I return to XMB. I can make a backup of my PS3games on the internal PS3 HDD, but even these copies don't launch with BackupManager or OpenManager.

Can anybody run at least some game at fw 3.15?

PS Sorry for my English

EDIT2:

Reloaded the android build and everything works fine now. Just need a version that supports backups. Currently testing other managers to see if thats the problem.

Maybe i am doing it right, if this is just a home brew version.

My thinking for not doing it correctly is because there are no new icons under the "game" menu on the ps3.

I am trying to install the pkg file.

Can someone verify how i would know if it succeeded or not?

edit: redownloaded the file.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hotshot646:
the backup manager works but only backs up and will not LOAD any backups.

basically what is happening is that you load up the backup manager, assuming you already have a backup on you external HDD you click X to load the backed up game, the PS3 restarts and supposedly you will see the disc icon with the loaded game and not the actual BD game.

As it stands you can back up(i am backing up Soul Caliber 4 at the moment) but there is no way to load.

This has something to do with the version of psfreedom we need either the patch or unpatched version, pretty much the opposite of what we have now

darkstone if you read this please compile the other version or at least tell us how to do it ourselves. thanks in advance and AWESOME WORK :D

I think don't fully understand your problem... If you don't have the root folder with the psfreedom.ko inside your Android build folder (root/system/lib/modules/psfreedom.ko), you just simply need to copy it...

In this case, "root" is a folder, not the SDcard root!

Hi guys.

I use HD2 for JB on 3.15. But I still can't get to run my backups. I think I realized that the reason lies in the fact that I have a file /proc/psfreedom/payload does not support running backups. On the Internet I found another file payload_bdemu.bin, which seemingly involves running backups. Does anyone know how to replace the file /proc/psfreedom/payload to a new payload_bdemu.bin???

I tried to do so:

su

cat /sdcard/payload_bdemu.bin > /proc/psfreedom/payload

at the same time get an error:

write: Bad address

tried in another way:

su

cp /sdcard/payload_bdemu.bin /proc/psfreedom/payload

at the same time get an error:

cp: cannot create '/proc/psfreedom/payload': File exists

Does anyone know how to replace the file /proc/psfreedom/payload to a new payload_bdemu.bin???
