I already used your previous video to install an SSD in my PS3 Slim. I’m going to try out what’s in this one as well. I’m looking forward to your future videos about the PS3. This is great fun. Thanks, Bob!
This is good, quite good, but it's currently half a guide if we don't want to wait 6 months for vimms to give us games. I have PKG's and Iso's so far depending on my download locations and have no idea how to run either. Being a PS3, i feel PS2 and PS1 were pretty important too, and then later you'd probably show us how to run retro roms, then beyond that would be the time to move into CFW hacks and what not, considering we can all use HEN. So until i've done way more research, and im honestly wiped right now, its cool, its hacked, i have zero idea how to use it now tho haha, look forward to more guides :)
Any chance you'd consider doing a video on the other modding option for the PS3? I own a PS3 fat system. It's not one of the ones with PS2 built in, but one of the later two USB port models. I want to mod it after I finish my current projects (Wii u and PSP). I've already installed a terrabyte drive in the PS3 (which I did a year and a half ago without the aid of your video) and it's just waiting to be fully upgraded. I know other people have already made videos on the subject, but if I'm being honest I prefer your work. I used your videos to help me with my 3ds and I got excited when I realized that you cover the PS3. Anyway, thanks man for all that you do. It's nice not being the only person out there to have this hobby, and I love seeing other people's love for older hardware and games.
I have a slim 4.90 3001b cech 500gb with zukostore that have all games from ps1 ps2 ps3 all retro....its fill with all rap flies an license its a dream came true
Hi Bob What you think about PS3 4K Lite? Would be great to have a video of full PS3 4K Lite features. Other important interesting stuff is, how to use a keyboard/mouse to play shooting games like Call of Duty on PS3. Your detailed way to explain everything is awesome. ThankU
Very good step by step tutorial, worked for me. Transferring games with fat32 usb drive also works for me when i split the game files that are >4Gb . My only problem is that multiman (the HEN version that you recommended) gives me very frequent blackscreens when i start it which freeze the ps3 and i need to unplug it or hold power button long time to shut it down. I can only make my Multiman work again by deleting it and reinstalling Multiman. I have no other packages than multiman installed on my ps3. Do you know a fix for this that makes my multiman work without constantly needing to reinstall it? Should i try restore filesystem / rebuild database?
You can try deleting MultiMan and use MultiMan Mod instead. Or use WebMan Mod to see if that works better. They all do the same job but the Mod versions are slightly updated for extra features.
so ive tryed this just now and followed the instructions word for word and im trying to do this to a fat model with a broken disc drive i have hen installed and everything but when i boot up the ps3 i dont get the hen logo its just blank then on the xmb i have hen and multi man but when i try to open multi man it just black screens is this a console problem or did i mess up somewhere or somehow?
You need to run the enable hen option every time you boot up the console. The system will boot to standard firmware first. You then override it with ps3hen.
@@BytesNBitswith the hen does it have a cfw so that i can turn off the disk drive read? i’ve figured out that my playstation won’t open any apps with it in this state if i can do that then open multi man and boot up emulators?
Hey, random question. Tried a few usb sticks to back up/install the hen software but no sticks are being read at all by the slim console... Have you any recommendations on make or style of usb flash drive that would work please? Thanks!
Than you for the great content.I was wondering if you are able to do any videos on the ps3 disc player not reading discs? My does the dreaded clinking noise and none of my discs work? Any suggestions would be grateful. Thankyou in advance.
Thanks for the comments. It sounds like your disc player is broken. I guess the easiest way to fix it is to replace it. Or bypass it with wither the PS3HEN or CFW hack and play games from your hard drive or external USB drive.
@@BytesNBits Cheers, that was my thoughts, unfortunately many of the image files I need for my games, it seems are not available on the usual sites 😪 such as GT5 and God of war.
Thanks for the video. I have a question when should I need to connect my ps3 internet network? Or all process is offline? Edit: I installed using safe mode on my ps3 superslim. In xmb software update couldnt recognized update file. Also 2 updates on safe mode.
@@BytesNBitsThanks! I copied my original GranTurismo 5 on to my hdd but its not launching just black screen. İnstalled webman, tried the fixes for multiman settings nothing worked. Even converted into iso in webman. That didnt worked either. Reverted back to original fw just to play this game.
Yes. You can connect to PSN as normal before you enable HEN. Once you've enabled HEN don't play online. Just make sure your auto update is turned off so it doesn't overwrite the hack.
@Bytes n Bits ...So i have the original 60 gig Ps3 fat model with backwards compatibility and stopped using it due to the blue ray drive not working anymore to read discs, i ahve the old firmware too..Now my aim is to add ps3 isos ive downloaded but also add emulators from different consoles aswell in their.. Can this be done with ur tutorial?
Yes. Either this PS3HEN hack or the full custom firmware hack - ruclips.net/video/4D4ZgRFVXQg/видео.html. Neither needs the Blu-Ray drive to be working. If you go the custom firmware hack make sure you download the firmware for a machine without a working disk drive.
Now when u say firmware without a working drive, what do u mean? U just confused me🤔...I said my blue ray drive went out and can't read discs anymore but I may replace the optical drive in the future.i seen ur other video and decided to go with the PEX file for home reqing and the future replacement of my optical blueray to read discs.what is the difference between this install and the other video install hack?

Any branded stick should all be OK. Make sure you've formatted as FAT32. Make sure you try all the USB ports.
Whats wrong with multiman mod 4.91?
Nothing. Both will work fine. In the full loading games video I show you how to update MultiMan to MultiMan Mod.

Is there a specific usb flash drive I need to get or it doesn't matter as long as it's fat32
Nevermind this tutorial was very understandable and very easy. Thank You bro and keep up the good work.
Hope you got it working. For anyone else, most USB drives are compatible but do make sure to format it as FAT32.
micro sd card is not showing in my ps3 what to do
Make sure you've formatted it as an FAT32 drive and as an MBR system. I don't think the PS3 can use GTP formatted drives.

what are the website that u downloads ps3 games
Have a look at the Internet Archive. It's a good place to start with.
after jailbreak can we play cd games again
Yes. The console works as normal for original disks.
@BytesNBits thanks bro for info
rabi ykhalik a sahbi
Thank you. Hope you're enjoying the games!
What is the format type of the external drive?
Pretty much everything for these older consoles needs to be FAT32.
haha Enigma, dope.
estaba haciendo pruebas con el HEN ruso, y mi ps3 quedo sin conexion wifi , ni ethernet (T-T) ayuda por favor!!!
You probably need to re install the official firmware to clear out the HEN code.
Can you do this with Chromebook
You won't be able to do the compatibility check as that uses a Windows app. But the rest should be OK.
Where should I download the game from?
Try the internet archive - if it's back online yet.
Which one. Ps3 Can run PS1 PS2 and psp games Fat or slim 😊
I think all models can run PS1, PS2 and PS3 from backup files. You need the custom firmware for PSP. If you're buying a console to hack go for either a Phat, or a Slim with model number 20XX or 21XX. Some Slim 25XX can be hacked but you won't know until you try it.
Nice and feyzox mods
I’m scared I will brick my console will be alright if I just follow this guide
Just follow each step and take your time. You'll be fine.
@ when I want to add my game backups does it have to be a ISO file. And where do I place the games ?
Wow Bob Wow
Thanks. Give it a go!
