(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Following up on the previous update of my PS3 4.00 Dev_Flash mod, today I've released version 2 of my PS3 4.00 HFW (Hybrid Firmware).

Change Log:

Version 2:

Adds "Debug XMB Items" to the XMB Column "PlayStation Network" (contains the Debug items found in this column, originally for DEX)
Removes the useless "PlayStation Plus" XMB item from the XMB Column "PlayStation Network"
Disables Cinavia DRM on all media except Blue-ray.

Version 1:

Adds DeViL303's "XMB File Manager" to the XMB Column "Game"
Adds "/app_home/PS3GAME/" to the XMB Column "Game" (has no function at the moment, but is here for completeness)

Installation Instructions are the same as before:

1. Be on a firmware 3.55 or less
2. Install the .pup through the XMB (Make sure you have a working hardware flasher as there is no other way to downgrade)

Remember only retail signed .pkg can be installed with this. Have fun. THIS HFW WILL NOT ALLOW HOMEBREW!

An important message for users upgrading from a QA Flagged console: If this console is updated to my 4.00HFW from a QA Flagged console, it will not be able to access the extra System Settings provided by QA Flagging. However all settings made with the QA Debug Settings will remain, EXCEPT "System Debug Update".

Extra Credits: This HFW uses the "XMB File Manager" by DeViL303 which is a modification of Team Rebug's "Packages Manager".

Useless? Really? Well throughout all of this all I've seen is PS3 owners ripping back their consoles from Sony.

The scene has been dead for months. Honestly, I don't know why I bother coming on here anymore. I just do anyway.
The Wii scene loved whatever they were given, no matter how insignificant, yet the greedy bastards at the PS3 scene didn't show any gratitude.
This led to the original PS3 scene members leaving, such as Mathieulh (he will be missed, regardless of his boasting. You probably wouldn't even have heard about QA Mode)
Then when developers want to be paid a little money for their time and effort, you flame at them. The TB Dongle was hated for the first few weeks of its release.

The following people will be missed (their importance in descending order):
Graf_Chokolo
Mathieulh
Kmeaw
Waninkoko

The following people didn't stand up for the PS3 players, like Graf_Chokolo:
Geohot

- You know what? Screw it. I'm adding this site to my hosts file. Cya 'tards.


I may use other PS3 Scene sites in the future, but this will not be one of them. Enjoy being retards who copy and paste, as well as copying OLD threads.
By the way, heres some news for you guys: I'm Fifteen, yet I'm correcting half of you. That must make you feel so proud of yourselves.

Injecting files into a PS3 sounds fun.
