Oh sorry, I was suggesting this more as a CFW tweak. I’m sure the time servers the standard PS3 OS uses are Playstation’s servers. Simply was suggesting it be updated to a Linux NTP server or set of servers if it’s NTP protocol under the hood.

If this is using NTP protocol under the hood, it should be updated to a Linux time server IMO.

I may have asked this here before, but is there anyway to make this available to BC models natively through an OS patch so I don’t have to load OPL to mount USB for PS2 games? [Tutorial] Playing PS2 games via USB (BC models ONLY)...

I would recommend using chronoswitch downgrader to reflash stock 6.61, then install ark with cIPL option instead of infinity. None of the other CFWs are still maintained so I don’t see why anyone would continue to use them as ark is getting daily / weekly updates. They recently just integrated...

I am by all means no expert with how PS3 works under the hood. That being said, the PS3 is still heavily utilizing the core OS, kernel, and configurations written for the original PS3. These CFW teams (really just @Evilnat at this point w/ the help from various people across this site) have just...

I know @aldostools was actually maintaining some of the updates that didn't require an entire full FW install via webMAN Mod with 4.91.2 Beta's, not sure if he plans to do that again with 4.91.3 Beta's. IIRC there was only 1 or 2 updates that actually required the PUP install due to some...

4.91.2 was released formally. EvilNat is working on 4.91.3 Betas now. Beta 1 is all that has been released. https://mega.nz/folder/lYlHjaqC#ZQLBdawHJESJNUuMtU0o_g Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I tested from 4.91.2 [Final] -> 4.91.3 [Beta 1] with DEX VSH set as the default and no longer see the double reboot and install that I was seeing previously. PS3 Details: Latest EvilNat 4.91.3 (PEX) [Beta 1] Cobra 8.5D (Debug Enabled) IDPS: Original TargetID: CEX VSH: DEX XMB Host: CEX Debug...

aldostools had posted this on twitter a little while ago: https://www.psx-place.com/threads/release-ps1-and-ps2-emulator-mods.45083/page-2

Btw, I have a CECH-A and I am not seeing any issues with physical media on the latest EvilsNat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There are many forum posts that state the positives and negatives to an SSD on PS3 on this site. It is true the lifespan on ps3 is heavily reduced though. Here is a decent thread for reference: https://www.psx-place.com/threads/ps3-lack-of-trim-and-the-potential-for-ssd-use.32672/

Just to provide more clarity, aldostools wrote a small write up on twitter recently. You should follow him there as he posts nice useful nuggets of information multiple times a day around PS3 tools, including all sorts of “hidden features” available through Webman Mod. I say hidden because there...

Make sure VSH is set to CEX.

Not sure if this is correct, but it seemed like the comment was at Sony and their hardware, not our lovely community but I could be reading it wrong.
