PS3HEN PS3HEN - Official Release Thread (Homebrew Enabler for the PS3) v3.5.0 (4.93 support)

psp iso support seems to have improved massively with 4.86.1HFW and HEN 3.0.1.
isos have all booted successfully since the updates so far.(using multiMAN_04.85.01_BASE_(20191010) to mount)
 
[HELP] I have a question, my PS3 can't update to 4.86 HFW. I check USB stick is in FAT32 format. The route is C:/PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP and nothing happened. I tried with another USB stick, nothing. I tried to do this from recovery mode, and when PS3 says me, conect cable and push ps button, I push button and the srcreen backs to XMB and ask me if I prefer HDMI vision. It could be because my PS3 installed hen 3.0.1 in muy 4.85 version? Thanks for your help
 
I wish the auto update thing could be disabled, it's annoying and when everything works perfectly I don't like to update software just because.

I remember having a chat with @esc0rtd3w some time ago about a feature to disable the auto-update check.
It was a really simple change, like adding a couple of lines of code to the HEN plugin, validating if there was a "disable.check" file and then continue with the normal process.
Too bad the change didn't make it into the new v3.0.1 :(

I do remember that @esc0rtd3w built a v3.0.0 plugin with the "no-update" change. It's buried in one of these threads, if you look around you should be able to find it.

If I have time, I can compile the latest code with the no-update patch, but I'd still prefer this change was part of the official build. :)

ahh yes, forgot about that! Maybe this can also make its way into the next revision!

The older no auto-update build you are talking about, i think i just literally removed the line to trigger update check, i cant remember that either lol. But it was not the proper way for a release anyways
 
Not sure If coincidental but I'm having audio and freezing issues with ISO games after the update, parts of the audio disappear, stutter or become delayed sometimes and a game froze for a few seconds. I did add a new folder to the usb drive for PSX ISOs, I also tried to mount a game while the wrong usb drive was in, not sure If that started it or the update, but I scanned the usb drive and no errors. I did not update the firmware yet either. Can I just download another version of HEN and install on top of this one to revert back and see If it solves the issue?

if its just psx isos i would copy one that did that to ps3 hdd and test it. maybe the usb is slow/having problems.

I'll get the no update 3.0.0 version then.
edit: if I find it I'll paste the link here.

how to activate the rap files ?in 4.85 i just place the exdata folder on the root of the usb and click on the game and thats it
In HFW 4.86 with HEN 3.0.1 it is exactly the same. You put the rap files in the "exdata" folder (usb or internal hdd) and voila! You start the game from the XMB normally. Greetings.
 
In HFW 4.86 with HEN 3.0.1 when you insert a ps1 game of another region, in my case my ps3 is NTSC and my game Driver 1 is PAL and appear 80028F10 error, i tested the game in disc and psn pkg with rca and hdmi and is the same result, i remember that in HEN 3.0.0 and HFW 4.85 not had any problem to play this game, i hope you can resolve this issue in a future update thanks

I don't know how you got that working on 4.85, PSX region free never worked fine on HEN due to the limitation we had. We even removed the code that does the video resolution swap..

I converted the game pal to ntsc with zapper 2000 the screen doesn't see complete but worked and other games as crash team racing pal or driver 2 pal for example the game it freeze, slow frames, fast frames or black screen
 
if its just psx isos i would copy one that did that to ps3 hdd and test it. maybe the usb is slow/having problems.
The USB appears to be fine, read/write same as before and no errors detected, I deleted the PSXISO folder from the folder structure and will test again, hopefully it will work fine.
 
Is there anyway I can disable Auto Hen update besides disabling internet access? I don't want to lose the functionality of my Headphones, and i'm pretty satisfied with 3.0.0
 
If we already have this installed can we just update the firmware over the top, and do nothing else or can we update through multiman or something? Sorry only hacked it a few months ago
 
Hello,
I have a Problem with getting HEN working on 4.86. I installed HFW 4.86 several times and once OFW before, but if i press to enable HEN it does not close the browser and i get the message that HEN was enabled and the Power Button keeps blinking in Yellow and Green. After some Time my PS3 freezes on the HEN Browser Screen. Sorry if someone wrote about this before, but I wish HEN would work again.
 
I have to either update FW/HFW or downgrade to previous HEN, seems like new HEN with previous firmware is giving me problems, Irisman filemanager doesn't work anymore, just freezes my console every time.
Where can I find HEN 3.0.0 pkg? and do I just run it on top of this one?

you can get current hen for 4.84/4.85 hfw from ps3xploit site.
