PS3 Recovery theme

Console in Service Mode (which is unofficially named Recovery Mode) doesn't use any theme, so You can't "activate it". ;)
 
There is no waves in recovery. The only waves are in "normal" mode and I don't remember if they are on the one of dev_flash as *.p3t or *.qrc.

The best would be if You show screenshot/photo of place about You talking.
 
There is a static wave background image when updating FW, My guess is its inside the emer_init.self.

It's nothing special, just a background image.

I see, I could've sworn it was animated, has anyone ever made a theme based on it?
 
I don't think so, not sure if there is any way to extract that image from the self, It might be possible to get it out with a HEX editor. Oryou might find something similar to set as a background.
 
If You provide me decrypted emetini, I could try to find it if it's not compressed. Maybe it is written in standard format and can be easily extracted. But resolution is probably disappointing (I believe it is 640x480).

Yeah, probably low res. Here you go.

Hehehe, if it's easy to extract, maybe we can see @Berion's design on it? :redface new:
 
There is awesome tool named binwalk to automate scan process (to not fight with hex editor looking for JFIF, IHDR etc. :P) but it doesn't found anything interesting. Also I don't see anywhere in ELF compression (binwalk found a lot something which looks like deflate but that's for sure false positive). So it is probably RAW and the only way is to look into Ghidra/IDA Pro or have very good eye for machine code, to realize from where this resource is read.

Or maybe it is used in GIM format? But i never tinkering with this. Any magic number or something by which can be identify?
edit: Nah, false hope :P

For my intuition, something similar to raw bitmap is around DBC70.

BTW: What is "newfs_cfs"?

Messing with recovery mode without a flasher with backup is brave or stupid. :D But just for fun, why not? This picture could be refreshed a lot (but who tells that wave is on full screen? ;/).
