sorry for the confusion.
that text needs removed and is old, but does not affect anything. The auto installer works fine and is very heavily tested, but works best set as Home Page and freshly opened.

what condition in code that triggered this text to show up since other consoles does not show this text . Also Auto Intaller did not work unless i do as the text said , because it was fresh HFW and tried Home that time with deleted cach.. etc .it is not that importnant since it is only one console and worked with other methods just like using Auto Intaller from mini web on my phone it gives error but i see other on youtube that worked even though i did 100% as they did lol , used kWS

i believe its just leftover text from the USB version that we converted to use the P3T file.
probably triggered when HEN not loading properly
Okay so about this, it actually got fixed by it own after few days, I guess it was simply a psn issue . So yay, and thanks anyways.

Means you don't have the system activate in your PSN Account to use the content or You download it illegaly (from internet and not buy it from Playstation Store)

UPDATE (10-17-2019): Version 3.0.0 has been released.
See below for additional Details!
.See also: The Great PS3 HEN All in One (AIO) Guide
.Here is v3 of the latest PS3 Hack to hit the PS3 Scene with the recent release of PS3HEN. This exploit for nonCFW console's provides homebrew support and a number of Custom Firmware intangibles for those console that can not install a traditional CFW, with those being lat production PS3 Slim models and all of the SuperSlim Consoles. While this is a tremendous release and breakthrough the information behind PS3HEN has been lacking and has served more questions then answers that could be provided. This is due in the way this was delivered and presented. We paused the reporting this on the frontpage until we were pleased with the documentation. So we took it upon ourselves to get the ball rolling on a new PS3HEN F.A.Q. detailing various aspects and info that will be useful for PS3HEN user's. Also we have started forming the PS3HEN Homebrew & Plugin Compatibility Chart
View attachment 17616
Version 3.x.x has come with a number of new additions for a better experience. Some of the new changes provide full PS3ISO Support ,As well as full BDISO and DVDISO support has been added, plus new improvements to PS3HEN's stability, KW Stealth Extension Added, plus kernel plugin support (v2) to go along with bootplugin support (v1), see changelog below for a complete listing of changes in this new build.

NOTES:
if you get error 80010017 launching homebrew that simply means HEN failure, restart console and try again!(restart is important!)
also try deleting cache, browsing data, cookies and the likes from browser, make the exploit page the home page
DEVELOPERS:
#define SYSCALL8_OPCODE_IS_HEN 0x1337
using this if return 0x1337 its hen
ADVANCED POKE:syscall8(0x7003, addr, value);
this allows poking any location in lv2 memory BUT you have to restore original value before exiting to another application or exiting to xmb.USE WISELY OTHERWISE PS3 SHUTS DOWN
BDMIRROR:Managunz FTW!(please use Cobra payload because by default its MULTIMAN)
NOTE:mounting dev_blind will actually mount dev_flash. change files directly from dev_flash instead or hdd0/plugins/CFW/
Kernel Mode returns 0x53434500 on success to user webkit 0x8a000000. its good to measure HEN success. right now hen is already close to or is 100%
** For All Other Options, please see Developer Tab **
If you have to ask which one you need, you DO NOT need the developer one!
ATTENTION:
YOU MUST TURN OFF BROWSER CONFIRM CLOSE OR INSTALLER WILL FAIL
thanks to everyone for reporting issues
Recommended HEN Setup Instructions
Auto Installer (Run HEN From Flash)
HEN Enable will be the default XMB landing icon after installation. To make it work properly, navigate to System Settings > Display [Whats New] > Off

- It is recommended to Disable Confirm Browser Close (TRIANGLE -> Tools -> Confirm Browser Close -> Off) for using any of the web exploits. It just saves the step of having to click the Yes confirmation on exit browser!
- -Users experiencing 8001003A error, while installing custom packages (i.e. Offline PKG), this means dev_rewrite DID NOT mount and you need to reboot, run /html/han_flash_mount_rewrite.html again, then install package.
Known Issues:
None
- Place boot_plugins.txt on dev_usb000 if using plugins
- Place boot_plugins_kernel.txt on dev_usb000 if using kernel plugins
.WARNINGS:1) DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ENABLE FSM (Factory Service Mode) ON A PS3 WITH PS3HEN!
2) CONNECTION TO PSN SHOULD BE DONE AT YOUR OWN RISK. DISABLING CFW SYSCALLS MAY NOT HIDE YOUR HEN WHILE ON PSN (a popular method used by CFW user's may not be suited for PS3HEN user's)
3) DO NOT INSTALL CCAPI (ControlConsole API), Also beware that some Homebrew is not playing nice with PS3HEN. Most is fine but some advanced featured apps can cause issues, we will keep you posted in the PS3HEN Homebrew Compatibility Thread

keeps keeping?i think what he means to say that some games and homebrew after launching just freeze on start up black screening and the console becomes unresponsive ,it started happening to me 1 week ago after i updates fron 2.4.? han to latest 3.0.0 but i think it happens when u quit one app or game and try to start another and it freezes sometimes,but upon restarting it launches it, but soemhow i dont think its that bzos i had it freeze once just after enabling hen and launching a title... thought that 3.0.0 would finally be stable for my superslim pls ..btw when i updated i changed the constant 35% fan speed to dynamic and i think thats the fault bzos i reverted it back to constant fan speed and it has not frozen yet.will give more details if needed and keep up the good work u guys u are amazing
