OK, lovely. I'll re-rip my games to .ISO then. I have a spare CID+PSID that a friend has given me so I will also use that for spoof.
Thanks again for your help, buddy.
PS3 PSNpatch - Releases / Usage Information (Official Support Thread)

Thanks again for your help, buddy.
I dunno what you mean...
Why would KW need to stop updating? What is the difference in your opinion between an update & a release?
The last psnpatch release was made end of 2015, the app is fw independent & since then 7.50 is the first Cobra revision that requires a PSNPatch update. The new pkg is now released, remote controller support has been enhanced as well.
The plugin itself does not need any other features to do its job properly, it is pretty much the way it should be imo..
The app could always be improved of course & extra features could be added to it but that is up to KW I suppose.
Make sure all your game files are original though. Don't use patched or resigned files to make your isos.
Use Rudi Rastelli PS3 ISO Tools to convert the JB folders into iso. Makeps3iso is best imo.
Use ird files to check the game's integrity (missing or modified files) if you are unsure.... If you do not get an ird check option, you may need to use genps3iso instead for this check, I can't remember exactly..
You can get the ird files from this server http://jonnysp.bplaced.net/index.php

Yeah I'm ripping my discs as clean ISO's using MM. None of my games have been patched or resigned. My PS3 and HDD work quite fast together so ripping GTA V for example only takes about 15 minutes roughly whilst a game like Demons Souls takes about 6 minutes with. I just watch TV while it rips lol.
I got my CID+PSID inside psnpatch.cfg. I've also installed the plugin. Do I just press L3+R3+R2 to enable PSN whilst the plugin takes care of the rest by disabling syscalls, spoofs, ect and then done? Anything else I should prepare?
Yes.
Remember that everything using psn licenses will be tied to the ids used at the time you installed that content.
Therefore, if you are spoofing ids when installing a dlc or a psn game for instance, you will need to spoof the same id to play that content again later, even offline. It's probably better to simply spoof from the moment the system boots.
If you want to spoof ids at boot instead of on plugin triggering, choose the auto spoof at boot option in psnpatch cobra toolbox (use the Triangle button to select the option, don't select the other 2 options this time) then apply the settings..
Don't forget to enable the Unload wMM plugin Combo feature at the bottom of the wMM setup page then save the settings.
This way wMM will automatically unload too on triggering the psnpatch plugin....

Awesome. I will most probably auto spoof at boot as that seems a better option in my opinion. So if this CID gets banned, that means all PSN content is lost also? I won't be purchasing anything (I have a main account I used on my OFW PS3 until it broke a few days ago - this is why I want to use PSN on CFW now until I get a new OFW PS3 to use with my main account) so I'm not to worried about that. I just want Netflix, YouTube, ect, ect.
The 'Unload WM' was automatically ticked so I didn't have to do much there. Thanks for your help. it's been amazing!
No cid & psn account are 2 different things..
It appears that sometimes people get both ids + the account banned, other times just the cid.
What you should do is use 2 accounts. A main account for purchases & trophies that you rarely use along with a blank account dedicated to online gaming...
This way you only risk the spoofed ids & a worthless account...

Right OK, sorry for the 'noob' moment. My CFW PS3 only has one account and always has (beside ReActPSN aa account) so I'l probably keep it that way (already have a OFW PS3 coming to replace my broken OFW PS3).
If the spoof CID gets banned but the account doesn't, that means I could still go online with the original CID straight away?
Of course, in theory, you could go back online straight away...
As long as you don't care about losing the PSN account, you can run with only one.
Btw what do you use reActPSN for exactly?
Unless you are in a very specific situation which gives no better alternative, it's not really essential anymore if you ask me...

Great to hear. I have a CFW PS3 mainly for more scene related uses (emulators, homebrew, ect) so I don't really care about losing an account if it ever happened.
Well I'm not the sole user of my CFW PS3, my wife also shares it and she says that ReActPSN was installed by her to install content from my account (this was said around a year or two ago so I dunno if it's still used...). I dunno, I use an OFW PS3 for that stuff...

Reactpsn used to be the best tool for restoring licenses but it's not anymore.
Nowadays, I prefer to signin to psn to create an official act.dat then use psnpatch to restore all the backed up licenses on /dev_usb000. It takes 1mn, no fuss.

Hmm that is good but I think my Mrs will probably keep to her ReActPSN method as I don't want my main account on CFW PS3 lol. Also as far as I know, to restore license you first need to get them, not possible on OFW as far as I'm aware unless PexPloit still works?

Oh of course! And I'm grateful!
So is extracting licenses from my OFW using PeXploit worthy or a waste of time?

On ofw 4.70 I believe it can be done but on ofw 4.81 it's not possible atm, well.. at least afaik anyway.
Too few skilled people seem to be interested in looking for a new exploit or JB & that's what you would need...

Aw what a shame. Well guess I can tell the Mrs to continue with whatever method she was using then lol, that's of course if something else comes along in the future.
Thanks again for all your help @bguerville you've been ever so helpful!
You are welcome...
Btw tell her to look at a pc app called ***PlayStation Store*** if she doesn't know it yet, it might be useful...
Happy Gaming!

As reported by KW, PSNPatch is now restoring the syscall table for syscalls:
6,7,8,9,10,11,15,20,200,201,202,203,204
Looking into the recent past with the emergence of new CFW syscalls by different tools (cobra itself, ps3mapi, ccapi, ...), KW is thinking in the possibility of forcing the restoration of every non-OFW syscall to prepare for future homebrew syscalls payloads, thus keeping PSNPatch objective of being compatible with every fw version and tools (past and future).
- Question for devs:
What do you think in cleaning every syscall (up to the max of 1023) no listed in psdevwiki ?

Hi kokotonix.
Really happy of this update of my favorite hide secure tool.
In your faq you say:
I don't use them and try to be careful of this, but with children on the ps3 too, do you think it could be interesting and possible to have an option or plugin to check homebrews ps3 installations (we nearly know all them) and blocking their start or them when triangle option is used?
Regards.
