(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); First i would like to give some credit to Xcellerator for showing me how to do this. Also i know he already has a tutorial but i got alot of questions on how to do it so i decided to make a more detailed tutorial with pics and maybe a video later on.

What it does:
It changes the name that you are playing to anything you want!
Some good examples are: MW3,Halo:Reach etc...

This is a great way to mess with your friends over PSN as they will beg you to tell them how you got the game.


Things needed:
-Two PS3(3.41 and 3.55/3.50 with Bypass)
-Jailbroken PS3 with Hermes 4
-Any Demo:
Heres the Blast Factor Demo which is the one i used because its 90mb.
You must login or register to view this content.
Or just download any demo from this list: You must login or register to view this content.
-Any FTP Server for PS3 and File Zilla
-Any SFO Editor- You must login or register to view this content.




Step by Step Instructions:

1. Download the demo and put it in the root of your USB Flash Drive.
2.Jailbreak your playstation and plug in your Flash Drive.
(Make sure you have Hermes v4 or else it wont let you install the pkg.)
3.Install the .pkg and go to the PS3 FTP Server of your choice.
(Ex. BlackB0x)
4. Open up Filezilla and go over to:
/dev_hdd0/game/<Content-ID>/
5.Now find the PARAM.sfo and open it in the SFO editor of your choice.
6.Now go to where it says Title and edit it to whatever you want.Winky Winky
7.Now just save it to the same place where you found it.
8.Now data transfer it to your other PS3 and that is it! Dancing

Note: You have to start the game then exit it so it changes the title of the game.

It has now gotten way easier to do this with GeoHots new 3.55 CFW!

So here's how I got it to work anyway.

Instead of using geohot's test.pkg, download a demo from the psn store. (I used PixelJunk's Shooter Demo)

Go open up the demo game folder from filezilla
dev_hdd0/game/[Game Folder Here]

Drag PARAM.SFO from the folder and onto your computer

I found this SFO editor to work for me
You must login or register to view this content.

Open up the editor and load that PARAM.SFO you saved on your computer
You can then edit the name from there and save it.

Drag the edited PASAM.SFO back onto the folder on your ps3 (overwrite it)

Done! Go back to your PS3, load up the demo once (play it for a minute to be safe) then exit out of it so the name changes. Next time you play it the name will be different and your friends should be able to see it!

I got a friend to take a picture of mine

Do a barrel roll!
I need help I've followed all the steps and it dosen't seem to stick with me. I edited the file and demo name still the same. I reopened the SFO and my edited name still there is just doesn't show under my psn id. Any reason why it's not sticking?? Also im doing it the way Hacheoy wrote it

EDIT: Nevermind I got it. I needed to go to advanced setting to change all the names.

Modern Warfare ® 3: At the main menu and saved ...
replaces the original file PARAM.SFO Edited By ...
But when using such symbols: TM ® bla bla bla ...
