PS3 HAN PS3Xploit v3 Debug Settings Installer + Debug/XMB Swappers

Now Supports 4.84 HFW!

PS3Xploit Team has unveiled the latest progression in the form of an experimental Tool (Debug Settings Installer + Debug/XMB Swappers) for PS3Xploit v3 HAN user's (tools compatible with CFW also), with the release of REBUG REX that means a 4.82 DEX Firmware is out in the wild and that means with 4.82 DEX files, PS3 HAN user's will not have some added features and was one of the reasons why developer HABIB was suggesting user's stay on 4.81 for use of these DEX features as the status was unknown if a public 4.82 DEX would emerge, but with REBUG REX CFW release, the various files for swapping can be done, but devs will lend more details about that throughout this thread.

    This tool is released for experimentation purposes only, it is not meant to be installed by every HAN user!

    DO NOT TRY SIGNING INTO PSN WHILE DEX ENABLED, YOU CAN/WILL GET BANNED!

    CHANGE YOUR NP ENVIRONMENT (thanks @Joonie) to invalid or anything else and reboot to block PSN access.

Guys dex isn't a big deal. It doesn't enable any homebrew or something and not everything is even working properly. Staying on cex is better cuz dex messes up your ps3.

I Restored From DEX To CEX (There's no use of it ) OFW 4.81
 

DEX


Here's where it gets good. DEX stands for developer/debug firmware. This is what developers use to develop new apps, new games, and even new features. Alas, a setback is that DEX firmware does not allow SEN access. It disables it.

CEX
CEX simply means retail. When you hear CEX to DEX, that means retail to developer. It also is the same as CFW, just a different name.
 
How the hell did you completely reorder the categories? And also what waves are those?

theoretically, you can reorder the categories by shifting their order in the xmb_plugin_normal.rco. the categories are separated by the x and y axis like the clock. I can't remember if that's in that file, so reordering them in this way might work. I think content in the columns can be reordered through the xml files in dev_blind/vsh/resource/explore/xmb .
 
Good News we hope that come nearly.

Tbh I think that a local Xploit using an app would only be good for people with no local server device or no internet, its going to be a lot slower to boot an app, then run xploit, then close app, rather than just click on browser icon. So I don't think an app version of the xploit would be that popular. Unless it can be made auto running, and auto closing maybe like the browser but that is unlikely without being able to run code.
 
Anyone that doesn't like how @esc0rtd3w responds should try giving away a years work then spend everyday after answering the same questions that were covered in the release notes. I think you may find he has every right to get a little annoyed sometimes.

I was going to say something like that. it's okay to ask for additional help if you need to, but it's understandable to get testy when people don't read the op. take me for example, I haven't tried any of the ps4 hacks yet. I've been reading as much as possible before doing so. I'd urge anyone looking to hack any system to do the same. if something goes wrong, you're more likely to know how to fix it. that's why I put notes in my tutorials. they're additional information that the user may wonder about or issues he/she may encounter. good luck, everyone. we're here if you need us, but remember READ THE OP first. :)
 
Asking questions is due to lack of understanding try understanding that.and I agree most just ask without reading or doing any research there might be a circumstances or not

After restoring cex filed and installing OFW the search for media server option is gone in the XMB is gone and I connect use media servers on my ps3. Can someone help please
 
I think it's a good idea to edit the main post and include a list of the advantages/disadvantages of installing DEX on 4.81/4.82 HAN so people can weigh in their options, to prevent everybody even those who had no clue will install it even thought it has no purpose for most regular user, then ask noob question and then realize its not for them when its too late.

anyways good job guys, maybe I'll get another ps3 so I could test this out, can't really risk my 4.82 ps3 since my wife goes online to play karaoke and I believe older firmware is not supported.
