20w ago - Following up on the
4.11,
4.10 and
4.00 PlayStation 3 Custom Firmware modification updates, today
Szalay has shared a guide on bringing Install Package Files folder back to VSH on
Rogero 4.30 CFW.

Rogero 4.30-2.03 IPF (Install Package Folder) XMB Fix
To quote: Maybe it's just my opinion, but the Install Package via multiman and other Install PKG application are not the greatest options.
Here's how to TRULY add back Install Package from the VSH directly like before in v3.41/v3.55 for CFW build's v4.30.

Installation Instructions:
The download contains two installation methods; one manual, and one automatic. Instructions below:
Manual Installation
- Enable /dev_blind write access to /dev_flash
- And then COPY/FTP those files to the /dev_blind/vsh/module/blah*.sprx , etc, etc
- Reset your console
Automatic Installation
- Enable /dev_blind write access to /dev_flash
- Just double click it in multiMAN
- Then reset your console
F.A.Q.
How Does this Work?
"The reason install package was blocked in later than 3.6x firmwares, was because from 3.6x and higher, they started checking for valid tokens, the new ecdsa signed tokens and then flags to enable Install Package to work. The patch done just fakes the SPRX's into thinking the token flag is set."
Is This Safe?
"As far as being dangerous, the creator of CFW should be able to decrypt said SPRX files and replace the patches and recrypt/resign files properly and package inside the PS3UPDAT.PUP for all future builds"

" is it possible to launch games from a games folder in xmb without using multiman? "
I think there are some programs out there that let yo...
i can't exactly talk cause i've bricked a console before, but i learned from it.
cosoledev, is scetools useable on firmwares higher than 3.6? i checked the keys button and it only went up to 3.6, not 4.21/4.25. i haven't tested the game yet just out of laziness. i haven't turned on my console today. i don't exactly get what lv0, lv1, etc. is exactly, but i know that's where keys are possibly. so, thanks for any help provided.
Actually I found out I have a flasher and a micro SD card. How do I continue from here ?
Dongles won't work, so you can't get into FSM. Your only solution is flasher, which can be quite challenging for inexperienced people and are quite expensive.
Any advice on how to proceed?
there's only one dude that i can look up to that has gotten a brick. for everyone else, they could have a spoofer or something installed. judging by the questions, people aren't reading past the title...
oh, and thanks for the tools. i should be able to patch the game i've been waiting to play a while.
