(WIP - Contributions Welcomed] - PS3 starter Guide (2019 Edition for HEN User's)

I have resigned all the plugins and addons with keys 3.55 in this release:
https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/releases/tag/1.47.19

Yes I know HEN source code is out... to the public... I wonder why its release was rushed... anyway that's not my business :-p

I'm not using the security features in PS3MAPI... the code for that is commented out. So it doesn't take effect.
https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/blob/master/main.c#L265-L266

Maybe the issue could be related to peek/poke... I'm using the advanced poke only for fan control and the value is restored immediately.
I suggest to test these opcodes for get pid / write proc mem directly from a simple PS3L1ght app ;)
thank you sir! :)

EDIT:

Fan control is nice ;)

EDIT2:

i get shutdown (lv2 panic) on homebrew launch with fan control set to auto

EDIT3:

manual same. changing to SYSCON and disabling fan control makes homebrew work again

EDIT4:

i should clarify, the fan control works fine, but panics if homebrew launched while active

EDIT5:

everything else seems good with 3.55 resigned files now and hanging/freezing :)

lv2 panics and shuts down when using fan control and starting any other app, any ideas?
 
depois que eu usei o webman para o controle do ventilador, a ventilação só retorna após a ativação HEN, esqueci de ativar uma vez, o console atingiu 81 ° C RSX: - / help
 
It seems that the hypervisor doesn't like the fan values changed. Try using SYSCON setting until the hypervisor can be patched.
At one point it was working perfectly with .17, then one time the PS3 crashed and I couldn't change the fan control anymore. Why do you think this is?
 
Okay, I'm still a noob with the PS3 Homebrew thing, but I want to share something that just saved my life and some of my internal HDD too. I tried deleting a Backup I copied from FTP, but deleted it from the MM menu instead.
And then the game dissapeared but I still had the same space on my HDD. I tracked every folder using FTP again and just find out that the main folder dissapeared (BLESXXXXX) from the GAMES folder, but the content of it appeared on the root of my HDD (a folder named) PS3_GAME.
So I'm now deleting this and also taking a break too. I still want to see this evolving and keep learning too, so I hope that this could help someone. I don't now if it's already posted or commented (I assume it is, but still...), but my intention is to prevent a heart or panic attack to someone hahaha

IIRC That occurs when "BDMIRROR" is enabled. Some games require the folder PS3_GAME in the root of the device, otherwise you would have a black screen when the game is launched. Some backup managers still use the old method of BDMIRROR.

Usually the backup manager returns the game to the original location when you run it again.

Cobra/Mamba/PS3HEN payloads use an internal redirection in memory that don't require the files moved physically.

Also, there is an error on webman saying cfw syscalls disabled

It's the only game I really tried to run to be honest, but I never could get to load it really, not using Managunz nor Multiman. I tried to switch some options on the Managunz menu, but everytime I tried to run it (using Managunz or Multiman), it just return me to the XMB, so didn't really know how to do it.
 
I have a doubt.

Can I install Webman 1.47.19 directly? (the one which aldostools released few hours ago)
I mean, do I still need to do the plugins thing?

Thanks!

I did test get pids internally and exported it to syscall8. I'm certain that's working but if you say so, I'll still try it externally using app

And some people getting lv2 panic....I suggest maybe checking fan curve every 5 min, this should be good. Or set static fan speed, the most stable one of all
