[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
you will need a file explore/ manager homebrew app like awesome file manager to explore your ps3 or a ftp app for the ps3 then you can also explore your ps3 but through your computers ftp app. I would suggest visiting dedicated PS3 hack sites as they have all this information as well but in more detail. Be warned that you can brick your ps3 by messing with its internal memory so read well first. Also any game that's on an external drive will need to be split in 4gb files so the ps3 can read it. If its on the PS3 internal drive then it can be the full size so For example it can be the full 35gb internally
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] tprintz:
Thanks for the reply! I have the 250G HD so an external drive isn't really an issue. I just backed up FF13 last night... 40+ gigs! :eek: God of WarIII 35+gigs :eek: At this rate I might HAVE to get an external drive. If thats the case, how would I split the games into 4gig segments? Is there a homebrew app for that as well or can I do that natively through Rogero Manager?

Thanks again!:)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
When u transfer from a backup manager to an external drive it will do it automatically .
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
HI guys i hear about ROGERO manager , is better that the others BMGR? im reading psxscene forum and i see the Rogero Manager v7.8 - A modification of Open Manager! anybody try it yet ?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
I use multiman. I would use a backup manager that has a lot of documentation on it. They are basically all the same.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] tprintz:
I guess it all depends on personal preference but you owe it to yourself to try it out! :D This is a fantastic manager for your back ups! Great UI, easy to use, cool little sound effects. This really is the most polished of the bunch!
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
that is true. Multiman has a file browser built in with several UI choices as well as sound effects. You just got to choose the pkg file that includes styles. I personally hate running several different hombrew when one can do it all. Keeps my xmb clean.

UPDATE:

The Multi Version is up for download. PS3DJB Multi v1.0 Thread

UPDATE 2:

now that the Multi version is up i will wait for feedback. Once i work out any issues i will jump back on The HD2 app and update it in a similar fashion.

Open Manager did the trick! but no luck in playing GOW 3 but IU have the list of backups that are compatible with JB..Thanks !
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] matury:
question

Ok this is my question, how do I copy a game from my PC to the PS3? I have external HDD with 1TB FAT, but FAT only allows 4 GB files... how do i split them to fit in the HDD and the Open Manager to load the split parts:confused:
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] matury:
I had problems with ROGERO, MULTI, GAIA> when copying the game, however i did not had any problems with Open Manager 2
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
Whats up guys !!

I just bought blackops and i cant play:(:( is asking for 3.50 do i have to update ?.

I though with the spoof was supposed to work but i have a black screen with the original game...( no backup yet. Im going to backup in a min and try like that .
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] TheInVisibleGoD:
Black Ops on 3.41 firmware
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Jesus1988:
Put in the Original BD and push backup ...
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] jae-v:
In regards to "(does not include modified 3.41 PUP, lv2diag.self file 1 and lv2diag.self file 2)"

Do we need these files? I'm currently on 3.50 so i'll need to rollback.....thanks in advance :o
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dïnnïra:
Yup you'll need all that 3 files.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] jae-v:
hit the thanks meter for ya, now i must search for these files lol...somewhere
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
wow i was reading another one on ps3news , but this one is easier im gone to try it now ....

No problem mate, hope you received my pm.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] matury:
I "Know that" my question is from PC (computer rip thru BRay reader) to PS3 with an external HDD FAT

any help?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dïnnïra:
Have you tried copying it yet? If i remembered well I did backup my MGS to external 500GB HDD to PC & to a bigger capacity external 2TB HDD.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Jesus1988:
The fastest Method will probably be to connect your external HDD to your PC and then just copy the game onto it. If the game has files over 4gb you can put it over FTP on your internal PS3-HDD and then copy it with your BM to your external.

Or maybe THIS can help.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
Hello guys ...I spend $$ on games and I really want to play B Ops and MOH online so im going to sacrifice something and buy another one , can be anyone or the amount of GB has something to do ,i was going with the cheaper one 160 gb for 299$$ , i want to jailbreak the new one and forward the old one Bcause i have everithing save on the old one ( games , maps , and all my stuff and it play PS2 games ). if i get a answer im going nowwww... XD

Ps : what u guys think about JB the new one im doing the right thing???

Thanks guys
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Jesus1988:
Just make sure, that the Firmware is 3.50 or lower :)

BTW: You can save your old Files to e.g. an external HDD and move it to the new one with an File-Manager.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
Thanks ...im going to try ..

I bought one and is 3.42 , do i need to downgrade to 3.41?

damn the controller looks and feel lighter than my others one.....Sony trying to save $$$$
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dïnnïra:
Yup, you still need to downgrade it to FW3.41 or lower to enable jb
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Jesus1988:
Maybe no Dualshock ;)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
TNKS ... another question how do I upgrade my old one that is already JB 3.41 to 3.55 whitout having problems ...( i read that some people had some kind of freezing) Do i need toget the update from a website or just do it directly on the PS3.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
lol :p

it says dualshock do ....this cheapBstrds......
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] ultramag69:
MIKELOVESPB, the old PS3 is already jailbroken. Its possible sony will ban you from the network if its detected as jailbroken (thats their threat anyways). If you aren't sure about them banning you then keep the old PS3 jailbroken and use the new one without. Is a problem with the slimline anyway as they don't have a power switch, have to yank the power cable...
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
MMmmmmm ok ... someone else recommends anything else???

Wrong forum for this question but if i use the new one do im going to loose ( like BBC2 or MOH code to unlock all the maps , Bcouse u can use it 1 time only ))) ??/
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dïnnïra:
I don't think they will ever ban users via PSN. You can always update via internet or usb drive.

So far after searching in other forums, no such person was banned from PSN.

All $ony want is money :D & by banning any users will lose their sales.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
Yeah i was googling too and find some banned peps but from 2009 ....

maybe u can help me if im going to upgrade my old Ps3 from 3.41 JB to 3.55 i should download the 3.55 from PC?? , what do i need to delete from console ..
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dïnnïra:
Yup you may download from PC & transfer it to usb/pen drive.

This is what I noticed the others before upgrading FW, they will delete any backup games & homebrew. Just be sure it's totally clean.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] matury:
PSarc doesn't work try to split vt3.xaf(4.20GB) by following these steps:

1) download ****.chipovka.net/PSARC.zip

2) Extract zlib.net.dll and PSARC.exe to any folder.

3) Find any files more than 4Gb for example \PS3_GAME\USRDIR\build\main\pak22.psarc (5 596 444 529 byte)

4) Copy pak22.psarc into zlib.net.dll and PSARC.exe directory.

5) Extract pak22.psarc (just drag-n-drop pak22.psarc to PSARC.exe)

6) Now copy pak22 folder with extracted files to gamefolder \PS3_GAME\USRDIR\build\main\

7) Now you can delete pak22.psarc.

8) copy PS3_GAME folder with game to your external fat32 usb hdd GAMEZ\Uncharted2\

9) use backup manager to load game, should work fine.

but when i try to mount or drag and drop over psarc nothing happens... I dont have a working network with internet just the router, I will try FTP without internet connection...?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] karlstahl:
Hi Guy's,

i try to run the "Load Hermes v4b + 355 FW3.41.sh". BUT my PS3 dosnt show anything. Blackscreen. If i try another one f.e. "Load Hermes v4b + PSN + 350 FW3.41.sh" it works.

Is it working anywhere else? (i mean the 355 spoof.sh)

thanks for help.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dïnnïra:
Did you get the .sh file from KillaHurtz ?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] karlstahl:
No, where can i get it?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dïnnïra:
Here, thx to KillaHurtz.

Please update us if it work.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] hpolimar:
no black screen. ps3 does not boot
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] MIKELOVESPB:
Why do u need the 3.55 spoof hermes ? I think the difference in this one is that the PS3 dont ask to update right? the rest is all the same like the 3.50 or im wrong.

Im running hermes 3.50 spoof and all my games works ...
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] gersp:
Hey,

if I try to add "Load Hermes v4b+PSN+350 FW3.41" to the gscript it wont be added.

It shows new script added but there is nothing on the list.

How can i solve my problem?

THX

&

AMAZING WORK !
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] g3n0c1d3:
Thanks!

Thanks man! I successfully downgrade 3.42 > 3.41 with HD2 and ur tool :)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dïnnïra:
Welcome to the dark side :p
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] matury:
Solution

for those users like me that backed up games from pc to ps3 in a FAT drive and the file is larger than 4GBs, you need to download OpenSplit v1.2 and then use Open Manager to load the game in PS3. FTP only work with internet( wish i dont have) and ht*p://psx-scene.com/forums/533067-post.html is for this type of files. so best choice is OpenSplit 1.2 :)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Jesus1988:
You don't need internet to get FTP running ...
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Axospirit:
My hd2 doesn't show "select backup original android build and setup jailbreak" on the screen. why this?? tks:D
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] secretgate:
is it possible to run psfreedom from hd2 Nand ANdroid?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Jesus1988:
That's cause the new version creates an own folder for the Jailbreak, so your current Android-folder on your SD-Card keeps untouched, so you don't need to back-up.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
NAND Android will not work with this app as it is coded for WM.

to have the same functionality in a nand android rom you will need a recovery mod like the other android phones have to downgrade and jailbreak you ps3. now i would imagine that if you had a evo build on your phone you might be able to use the evo psfreedom recovery mod. again thats just what i would assume.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] g3n0c1d3:
Bump! :)

Same question? :)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Axospirit:
So, can i continue to select launch downgrader and then launch ps3djb android? tks

P.S.

can you confirm that with this hack isn't impossible play PSN?

tks
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] :
PSN is a no.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] joncy92:
Can we expect a nand version anytime soon?:D
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] BlackPit666:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10224236&postcount=686

that works
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
that post is exactly what I was thinking. I would use that for now. Wait till kernelnis updated and the process should be the same as the other psfreedom supported phone. This stuff might be out of date real soon as ps3 is now fully hacked. We can now sign apps for the ps3 so I would imagine that in the next few months to see a update pup file which should work on newer fw ps3's.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] secretgate:
this dosent work for me!

Android boots but touchscreen are dead no touch funktion

edit

now works!

great ****

Hi when i lunch Setup Jailbreak i got this Error

" An unexpected error has occurred in SmartDeviceProject1.exe

Could not find a part of path \storageCard\Android\root\system\lib\psfreedom.ko"
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] andylhchen:
yep, same as mine
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] andylhchen:
I copied that folder into that directory.. and I just get more errors with another file

It looks like the cab doesn't install the proper files necessary for it to load..
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
I believe i have fixed those issues in the new build. I am testing now. my phone cached the folders so i was getting different results. i fixed that now i see the issues. It will now create the directories needed. Before they were set to install which it does not do as my unreleased one functioned different. I think its better now.

what's new:

1. backup original build

2. restore original build ( his will delete all jb related stuff in the android folder)

3. updated setup jailbreak (now creates directories before installing files)

i will upload the new build soon.

I also want to mention that once you revert to your untouched android version you can still use the launch PS3DJB Android button to launch your normal android build.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] oleg105:
Tnx man cant wait to test it
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] andylhchen:
sounds great, just wondering if it will work with the newer RAM builds

with the new intrid? or will the new intrid be replaced with the old one?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] geormar:
Error Message: SmartDeviceProject1.exe DirectoryNotFoundException

For those receiving an error very similar to this one:

Error
SmartDeviceProject1.exe
DirectoryNotFoundException

An unexpected error has occurred in SmartDeviceProject1.exe. Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details or more information.

The actual error message is:

Could not find a part of the path
'\Storage Card\Android\zImage'

The program is assuming your android build is in folder on the storage card and that folder is called: "Android" and that it would either add or change the file 'zImage'

So, in order to fix this error: (This method worked for me, I do not need anything from the other builds so long as I get the PS3JB to work)

1) Rename your current Android build folder to something else (ex.: Back_Android)

2) Copy over a fresh installation of Android to your Storage Card

3) Copy over the contents of android77.zip (http://www.multiupload.com/Z2NNU54JPF) found in the original PSFAndroid thread by mangahoteles (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=815453) to your Android folder on your storage card.

4) Try to run PS3DJB again.

For reference, the NETCFv35.Messages.EN.wm.cab file can be found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft.NET\SDK\CompactFramework\v3.5\WindowsCE\Diagnostics

(Windows 7 x64 with Dev tools installed)

I would upload the cab, but I'm not sure if I could do that or not (still post #2!)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Spendy:
Was just about to say I get the same issues when I click the setup jailbreak but looks like I am not the only one. Great news your working on it as this looks so simple to use and will save me loads of time :-)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dan138zig:
no offense, but is this illegal? just wondering.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
it should not be as i did not include lv2diag.self files in the app :D

The new build is up. let me know if that fixes your issues. I will monitor this thread for another hour then in need to get my rest again. If all seems well i will start on the translated version. Please let me know if this fixes your previous issues.:D

Thank you!
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
Thank you for the detailed post. i wish i had seen it before i stumbled upon what i think was the issue u explained when adding to the app.

i looked again. Good catch. updating the initrd to the app
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] andylhchen:
Hackmimic can you please shed some light on this? :D
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] andylhchen:
NVM, tested myself with newer android builds with new intrid.

The android build no longer boots.

P.S. during your setup button, GSscript's directory is still missing
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
the new build im about to upload will back up the initrd.gz now. the other build did not. i did not catch it till now.

Gscript is not installing for you?

Gscript should be outside the android folder. Gscript installs to root of SD card
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] andylhchen:
I understand, what I am trying to say is that the cab does not install that file. so when we click on setup Jailbreak.. the error thing pops up again coz that file's not installed as not all android builds include that in the Android folder.

Many people will probably be asking this question.. i knew the solution was easy enough.

Thanks again for the new build.. will test as soon as you are done :)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
New build 1.6 is uploaded with the initrd.gz fix. I also posted if the gscript folder does not show up one the root of your SD when you install PS3DJB.CAB then reboot your phone and try a reinstall. sometimes the phone caches
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] oleg105:
Alright the downgreding is works just try it and now PSjailbraek can be instaled but when i press Launch PS3DJB Android its stucks on HTC screen im using

12-13-2010][JDMS 1.6.1 Ultimate][Hastarin R8.5.3+ EB][PPP
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
is your build main folder named Android? if so is it getting stuck on haret boot or when android boots and it displays the boot screen? Sometimes it can take up to a couple minutes to boot.

if it is still having issues i will download the same build and test first thing when i wake up. i believe there should be no more error screens from missing directories. it should now remain in the compatibility of the rom to the jailbreak files.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] andylhchen:
haha i am testing with same, and same result.

no problem with hariet

i think it's because they are using intrid (as all the newer builds are)

it is in android folder.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
the 1.6 build has intrid.gz for jailbreak installed. It is located in zimages/ps3jb on the root of the sd. when you setup jailbreak it copies and paste the initrd.gz from zimages/ps3jb to the android folder.

Wait a few days, people are working on a Custom-FW, where the JB isn't a need anymore.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Jesus1988:
Even with the 3.55 spoof you won't be able to play GT5.

You have to replace the Eboot.bin-File on your HDD (if you have the US-Version of GT5). Then it should work without spoof also.

You can change your registry that your "Lagerkort" is known as "Storage Card".
