UPDATE 1 (OCT. 11 2018) - With the release of OFW 4.83 portions of PS3Xploit have been patched, The team is looking at workarounds, STAY ON 4.82, DO NOT UPDATE TO 4.83 AT THIS TIME:

UPDATE 2 (MARCH -2019) HFW (Hybrid Firmware) Released - Allows for PS3Xploit Tools / Hacks (including HAN) to work for 4.84 (OFW) OFFICIAL FIRMWARE (See Here) Also the HAN Exploit was updated to v3.01 for 4.84 HFW support

dThe PS3Xploit Team has done it yet once again with an incredible breakthrough that has now just gone LIVE for everyone and as the recent teaser recently suggested it's for those later Slim & SuperSlim models who are not capable of using CFW (aka NoN CFW Compatible Models). While not a HEN (Homebrew Enabler) it's a volatile dose of "HAN" (short for etHANol). This version of the hack has evolved to offer something to every PS3 model now. All existing models will now have the ability to get PS3 games backup pkg installation and PS1/PS2/PSP emulators support among other features as outlined by developer bguerville who is going to take from here with this introduction of PS3Xploit v3.0 -- Codenamed: "HAN"

  • PS3Xploit Team is pleased to announce the official release of the PS3Xploit Tools v3.0 project nicknamed 'HAN'.

    PS3Xploit Tools v3.0 is a suite of 6 tools supporting both official firmware versions 4.81 & 4.82. The only pre-requirement to use HAN is to have an activated PSN user account.
    It's recommend not to use your main PSN account but rather a spare one.
    Users should create a new secondary user account on the PS3 then activate a new PSN account in it.
    This secondary ps3 account should be used to perform all the pkg installations. Then for regular gaming, use the primary user account.

    The principle behind HAN is quite simple, due to a vulnerability in the way npdrm content is managed, it is possible to resign game related files with custom keys, patch vsh & install resigned pkg from XMB.

    The first tool, on the PC side, ps3xploit_rifgen_edatresign.exe should be used to generate rif files and create new signed_act.dat. You should place the act.dat/idps.hex, previously dumped with HAN ACT/IDPS Dumper, in the resigner directory and drag matching rap file for your game onto the executable file. Then rename the new "signed_act.dat" to "act.dat" and place it on USB drive along with the new rif file. The files are now ready to be pushed to the PS3 using the HAN ACT/RIF Copier.

    ** It is recommended to resign all the pkgs that require Han enabler with this tool**
    ** Packages which are converts and packages which needs rif activation **
    **
    keep original act.dat in a safe place **

    On the PS3 side, the other 5 ps3xploit tools are:
    1. HAN Installer - Copies necessary system files to PS3 to run HAN.
    2. HAN Enabler - Enables the HAN patches
    3. HAN ACT/IDPS Dumper - Dumps current user profile user act.dat & PS3 IDPS to USB.
    4.
    HAN ACT/RIF Copier - Copies the resigned act.dat & generated rif file from USB to the current user profile.
    5. HAN Debug PKG Enabler - Provided optionally for users wishing to install debug pkg. Note that if you run this patch you will not be able to install any pkg resigned with the ps3xploit resigner for HAN anymore until you reboot!

    The 'HAN' project is solely relying on userland exploitation to provide digital backups support for the majority of PS3 Games as well as PS1/PS2/PSP Emulators (within the ps3 firmware) and the ability to install PKG files from USB. PS3 PKG Game backups need to be prepared using TABR like technique and only ps3 games having an available "game update" are supported.
    PKG files are installed from the Games XMB column, using a version of the Rebug Package Manager tweaked for this project. On USB of course, the FAT32 limitation of 4Gb is still in effect, it's a partition type limitation, nothing we can do about that. However workarounds using a local server can be used to remedy the situation if required.
    Important:
    To get best results initializing the exploit, remember to load the pages directly from a clean browser session. Never browse to an exploit page from other pages & never use a homepage other than blank or the exploit page you wish to use.
    We recommend to:
    1. Go to the ps3 browser homepage option & choose blank homepage.
    2. Create favourites to HAN Enabler & the other HAN pages you wish to use.
    3. Restart the browser.
    4. Use the favourites to access any page from complete scratch.
    5. Reload the browser between exploits.

hello friends first of all thank you for your hard work I wanted to ask you the possibility that there is an application like the HAN in this case the WEBMAN that serves to unbalance consoles
 
Hi, I have done all the steps of installing HAN, but when i have to dump act and idps i cant, even with the toolbox. In the toolbox says dumping it, but the files arent in the usb and in the ps3xploit page it loads but when dumping it says that it failed, the usb is in the right port, the closest to the blue ray drive, my ps3 is a cech-3004B datecode 2a, ofw 4.82 can someone help me?

Why don't you read the entire post??? People are asking the same question over and over again even though it has already been solved. You should install han,reboot, enable han, set the homepage to the dumper and then it wl work.

Oh, I tried that for the first time and it didnt worked that was an easy one to do the trick but it didnt do it, it was all about activating the acount for gaming. And thanks for your help, genius.
 
Is now possible to run homebrew ps3 games? I have read somewhere that you must embed ps3 homebrew on ps2 package for this to run.
 
please where can i download fifa 18 pkg and rap file i have checked ***PlayStation Store*** but i couldnt find it
 
am a new new member and i would like to say a big thank you to team xploit for there great work. keep it up guys
 
What the heck are you talking about ? With HAN, I was able to install Crysis HS, AC Black Flag and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit.

This beta is not even a frigin beta. It much more than that. Except for iso and c00 games, this baby can install and play anything as long as that game has a .rap file.

rap file well thats not 100% truth .... You can convert you Owned ISO Backups then using MakeBackupPkg convert it (again) into Pkgs , re-sign then HAN toolbox + PKG linker & done

1 U must convert you Owned ISO Backup using CFW2OFW Helper
2 U must convert the two folders from CFW2OFW Helper into PKGs using Make Backup Pkg
3 U must Re-sign the three PKGs from Make Backup Pkg (GAME pkg, PATCH pkg & LIC pkg) using ps3xploit_rifgen_edatresign
4 U must Install etHANol into PS3
5 U must Install HAN toolbox into PS3
6 for PKGs over 4 GB U must Use PKG Linker


use The search box for tuto , I can´t post any link , but I think this is a good summary
 
Can we install multiman after whole process?

I have done everything according the guidance provided. Its complete now.

Can anyone provide me the instructions of how to install multiple games at a time by making pkg. By far I know how to copy 1 game at a time.

One more thing, will DTU work to download in other ofw ps3(without ps3xploit).
