Do a barrel roll!
Hey everyone, I'm not sure if there's already a tutorial for this on here, if so ill just have a mod close this. This isn't something very hard to do, so I'm sure a lot of you already know how to do it.
Requirements:
Some sort of FTP Client (I'm using FileZilla)
multiMAN or Rebug Toolbox whichever you prefer
A Jailbroken System
Notepad ++, Sublime Text, or Normal Notepad
Me :3
Firstly
You need to open up your FTP Server of your Choice. If you're using multiMAN like me, the first thing you're going to want to do is scroll over to settings, scroll all the way down, until you see something like this You must login or register to view this content.
and enable it. This allows us to access dev_flash as dev_blind, which just allows us to modify things inside the dev_flash folder. If you're using Rebug Toolbox you don't have to do this, i was just having a lot of problems with Rebug Toolbox
Now sense that's enabled we need to go into FTP and get the file we're going to edit
Once In FTP:
Once you're in FTP, you just want to go into the dev_blind folder, and go to these directories
vsh>resource>explore>xmb
Once there you should see a bunch of .xml files like this
You must login or register to view this content.
As you can see the category is labeled, those are the categories of your PS3 XMB, I'm going to be editing the category_network one, and changing the "Internet Search" option. So you just drag the .xml file of your choice, it doesnt have to be the network one, it can be any of them, it's up to you. It's the same concept for all of them. Now just open it up with the text editor of your choice.
When Opened:
Once you have the .xml file opened, you just want to search for "title_rsc", thats the id per say,for the title name of everything in each category.
So you just want to press CTRL + F until you find the desired thing you're going to change, if its the network category and you're changing Internet Search, you should see something like this whilst searching.
You must login or register to view this content.
Once you get there, you just want to delete the _rsc part so it looks like this
You must login or register to view this content.
So, now we can edit everything between the <String></String> tags. In my case I'm changing mine to
"Search The Fuckin Internet"
Now that you have edited it, you can save it, and put it back on your PS3. When putting it on your ps3 MAKE SURE you close the ftp server with the quit button in the pkg, DO NOT Press The PS Button to do it.
If the instructions weren't quite clear enough I have a video also, which you can watch, it is a lot easier to understand.
