Hermes released a modified PSGroove version for running PS3 backups without a disc in the drive, and today
Ulmez on Elotrolado.net (linked above) has updated the installer to PS3 JailBreak Backup Manager 2 along with a Compatible Games list (below).
Download:
PS3 JailBreak Backup Manager 2
This Backup Manager lets
/bdvd link to
app_home/PS3_GAME so to load your PS3 game backup with this manager will need to have one of the
Hermes hex codes on your device. To install it just overwrite the existing one, you do not have to delete the currently installed Backup Manager.
Once you have Jailbroken your PS3 you can launch the backup manager. Select the game you want to load and press X. It should then drop you back to the XMB. Now select app_home/PS3_GAME and press X. If all went well your game should load without a disc in the drive.
Not all games are work yet with Backup Manager 2 without a game disc in the drive, with an internal or external hard disk drive, so in the
PS3 JailBreak Game Compatibility List add "Backup Manager 2" to the notes section if you used it in your results.
Here are my Backup Manager 2 PS3 game results thus far:
• 3D Dot Hero - External HDD - Working
• Donates Inferno - External HDD - Black Screen System Lockup
• Boarderlands - External HDD - Black Screen System Lockup
Finally, to quote, roughly translated: "Thanks to the work of Hermes is possible to load backups without having a BluRay on the reader, but as we all know the Backup Manager is leaving us for the work load a game without the disk inside.
But thanks to a very nice anonymous user that is no longer a problem because this program has been modified to not ask for the disc. So, in conclusion, it is possible to play without a disc in the console
To install it is not necessary to remove the previous one, just what you copy to a flash drive and instalais. The console will tell you that already exists and you will be prompted to overwrite it (if the ID matches, leads the original), you accept and go. Also respect your installed games on the hard disk, which is welcome.
IMPORTANT #1
It is important to you to know that not having a disc in the console BluRay icon appears in the XMB, you ought to go to the "app / games" to load from there select the match after the Backup Manager.
IMPORTANT #2
Some games do not load if no disk in drive nonetheless. Apparently not too many, but can be solved by inserting a disc, as with the original Backup Manager. Not a problem if the Backup Manager or PSGroove.
Remember that it is necessary to have the latest revision of PSGroove with Hermes changes

I HAVE 1.11 update an i have black screen
how can i fix it ?...
I'm currently trying out the Olimex hermes hex that was posted a few times in this thread combined with the back up manager.
I would like to know where I am supposed to put my GAME ID's when mounting them to my internal hard drive via ftp. With a different backup manager I put the game in dev_hdd0/games/LAUN12345/GAMEZ and I partly succeeded, but the game (3d Dot Heros) froze up after some opening credits.
BUT Since I've used this new BM I've tried putting my game in hdd0/GAMES, or hdd0/GAMEZ. I even created and put the game in hdd0/games/*LAUN1234/WAREZ* by but this didn't work either.
I can never see the game in my backup manager after I've finished the transfer.
What am I missing? Someone please help me.
Could someone please send me in the right direction?
I'm new.. Spend whole day yesterday on jailbreaking my PS3 with iPhone 3G (http://www.ps3news.com/forums/ps3-guides-tutorials/how-install-psfreedom-iphone-jailbreak-ps3-112696.html), then installed this backup manager: http://www.ps3news.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=4419. I see my games on internal (some from internet, some I've backed up there from original discs), but when I select a game with backup manager, it throws me back to xmb. After that I go to /app_home/PS3_GAME/ and I get "error 80028F14" message. How can I solve this?
Tnx.
As I understand, It has something to do with Hermes payloads, but I can't find the tutorial what that is and where I should get them from/put them to on my device..
EDIT: Fixed everything. Tnx!
