PS3 CFW PSPAD PATCH
You say that you're not have a bad patch report, so, if the original dump.hex (from OFW 4.82) and flash_482.hex are valid (using the HDD method), it is 100% safe? If there has an error, what can i do? the writer does not recommend restart the console, so, it is brick? No problems.īut i'm curius, i have never verified after patch (as the writer recommend).

I have the same question that the PS3's what I modify (mine and a few cousins), I always install OFW4.82 from recovery, dump and check the dump.hex (the original one before patch, with ps3dumpchecker, all of then has been correct) then patch with the flash writer always use hdd via. There are already various posts in this forum, from me & various other members, detailing this issue & its solutions.Ĭlick to expand.Hi, finally i sign up here Validate the Flash Memory after patching using pyps3checker & if validation is successful, reboot & install the CFW of your choice. Patch the Flash Memory again with the Flash Writer 2.0 (use the HDD version, fewer risks of mistakes & USB related issues). Only downside, you would lose all the data on the hdd.ī) Reinstall OFW 4.82 if the system lets you (it should let you! ). Reinsert the hdd in ps3, boot the console & reinstall firmware as per screen instructions using a CFW PUP. Wipe the first few sectors of the hdd on PC/reformat. Luckily, you have 2 options to get out of this jam.Ī) Remove the internal hdd from the ps3. Omitting to install 4.82 OFW twice before attempting to jailbreak with the Flash Writer 2.0, as we clearly instructed, leads to a strong risk of error when trying to apply the CFW after jailbreak. This is a very common error made by users. If you followed the instructions, you should already have done this step. You should always validate a Flash memory dump after the patching to be certain anyway because a reboot after patching the wrong file is guaranteed to lead to a brick in 99.99% of cases. Only a small number of issues have come from people using the wrong patch file & omitting to check the patch file's md5 hash before proceeding.

Since its release, I have not had a single report of a badly applied patch. The exploit succeeded but the patch was not applied correctly or the patch file was corrupted (extremely unlikely if you already rebooted successfully). Remember to validate a dump of your Flash memory before rebooting & applying a CFW.Ģ. You haven't rebooted your console after patching the flash memory. In short, there are several possible explanations, the following 3 are the most likely.ġ.

If you are using a LAN connection and experience network issues, make sure all cables to router are in working orde r.įor best results with flash writer, here are the recommended steps.If the exploit takes more than 5 minutes to work, reload page, browser, or restart console and try again.Try using a LAN connection or a solid WiFi connection during exploitation.It is recommended to set your homepage temporarily to the exploit page you wish to use to ensure there is no memory flooding messing with the exploit initialization stage.So in short, never use the browser or use a homepage you cancel before running the exploit!.

The reason for this is that due to ps3 javascript core memory usage limitations we are scanning several times a small range of browser memory (a few Mb) to find some essential data in RAM, if the memory is flooded due to previous browsing then the range to scan becomes much larger & the probabilities that our data is found in the smaller range decrease dramatically. It's essential not to flood the browser memory with junk before running the exploit.
