I had don't test it but I don't think that there are trouble because PS3Lock menu open with :R3: + :o: and rebug vsh menu you can open with :select: (?)

EDIT:
Maybe in the next release I add the button combo to the config so that can be changed in the settings.

I don't know what you mean exactly, can you make a screenshot?
Otherwise PS3Lock don't touch anything from webman.

Im mean as in the webman folder has (1) at the end and i click it it list ps2/ps3/psp etc...
Re installing fw did not solve this either
I dont think its causing issue but its annoying me.
Within webman setup it say refresh games.xml (1)
 
Great plugin will test this further!

edit: nvm bug was on my end.

Help my PS3 is stuck!! I added the sprx to my boot plugins and the PS3Lock folder where it was specified and now the PS3 just says PS3 Lock v0.6 and doesn't progress. My XMB is frozen and I don't have FTP access am I stuck formatting? Can anyone help? It will make "noises" (I am guess the 10 char input for the code) but I can't do anything else. Please I don't want to format 1tb of data as my backup HDD got used elsewhere and I was hoping to get a new one before something dreaded happened.


[MENTION=29]Joonie[/MENTION] thank you for not enabling Cobra upon boot. I did a firmware reinstall and all is well. Removed PS3Lock and I am sticking with XMB Lock as it works well without any issues. I thoroughly read what to do and watched the video to no avail. Guessing it didn't like [MENTION=17]Orion[/MENTION]'s Rebug VSH menu is all I can figure as everything worked fine till I installed that plugin. Not sure what it was but time to get my zips back in order as I have to manually install all my XMB mods again. [MENTION=3657]pinky[/MENTION] think you can help a brother out alphabetizing my 4.75 XMB as I am sure you have the files still. But without your coldboot edits please?

is there a specific file(s) ur needing? btw, if u have a spare hdd, I'd suggest putting most of ur content on that. then, use gamedata tool or ext game loader for games/dlc respectively. if ur hdd does crash or fails, u can get all of the content back with robocopy. it'll copy the directory listings and the param.sfo to another folder. transfer the content of that folder to ur internal hdd. that's the way I have mine set up. I have maybe 5,000 things installed, but robocopy will trim that down to about 60MB as all u need is the param.sfo for installation.

I have sent you a 7z file of most of everything ready to add into a zip for multiMAN just need the logo from a 4.65 system_plugin.rco added to an already modified system_plugin.rco I have sent for 4.75 but everything else is there. Seems I had some of the files backed up just not that one system_plugin.rco with the logo added but hey most of the work is done and there. If push comes to shove I can learn to live without Extreme's Rebug logo on the XMB as everything else is back and in place and working good.

Did you tried this?
Readme said:
PS3Lock start delay:
For CFWs without epilepsy warning i recommend 1-3 sec, for CFWs with epilepsy warning i recommend 6-9 sec.
If the menu seems to "frozen" after password entry then try to open the settings menu, if you see
the settings menu then try to increase delay time and push :L2: + :R2: + :L3: for restart.
 
Did you tried this?


The only thing I see is plugin loaded and that screen sticks. My XMB waves do move and it just says PS3Lock v0.6, at this time I can hit ten presses then try R3 to save but nothing happens. The is not background png to see what is going on.
 
[MENTION=7]atreyu187[/MENTION], let me know if that file works. I used ur file from 4.75 rather than the one I have on my laptop. also, I do remember [MENTION=31]eXtreme[/MENTION] having to reposition the x, y for the scorpion logo. I didn't alter the x, y at all. I just placed the scorpion logo in the file. well, if it doesn't look right, I can use the parameters from the original file. it's very difficult to alter then test since my ps3 is unplugged in favor of the ps4. should have the cable I need next week at some point. u don't have a pc to make the change urself, but ur ps3 is plugged in, and have a laptop to make the change, but my ps3 isn't plugged in in order to test it. it's kinda funny I suppose with the testing phase of that logo.
