CU3 FAQ

Q: I studded in updating dat file when showing the information screen, what can I do?

A: 1: Turn off and turn on PS3 to see if the dat file is updated. Second, check dat file in the USB disk is deleted. It's OK if positive, the system is fake death only. Otherwise, you got to update it again, or use another USB disk to try again.

2: Make sure the dat file is not corrupted, if you use txt file, it should be ended with 2 blank lines.

Q:Why the game hung, the cheat code not functioning etc.

A: As our experience of hundreds of games, system hung up, black screen, not functioning are because of 5 situations, please check.

Q: It shows "Unknown usb device" when I plugged in the CU3 dongle, it is normal?

A: Yes it is expected, the dongle could be malfunction if there is no such notice.

1: Occasional hung up of CU manager when loading the cheat code with START button , we did not find the cause of this weird situation, sorry

2: Version of game not correct cause hung up. For example the version of code is "XXX" Japanese version, small version code is 1.04, but your game updated to 1.06, in this case hung up is expected, or the cheat code is Japanese version and your game is US version, it also would be hung. So please select the cheat code strictly according to your game. (CU will inform you if the version is incorrect)

3: Load too many cheatcodes. Obviously, cheat code will modifying the memory where the game running, more cheatcodes loaded, the game become more unstable. In this case you can remove the codes gradually to prevent system hanging. Especially RPG game, modify the money to 9999999 and save, next time you don't need to use CU to modify it, so the game will not hang up be sure, and the number of kits etc. Use your brain so to speak.

4: The game could not progress after loading cheatcode. That's simple, you can 1: delete your game data file( backup game data by ftp) and create the game data again. Or 2: Unload the cheat code and CU to start the game again.

5: Most of the games will install data to harddisk, if the game not install completely and loaded the cheatcode, black screen or hang up will be for sure. So please confirm that the game is install correctly and create a game data before loading the cheatcode.

The solutions above are precious experience , you should solve most of the black screen and hung up problems using these techniques. If you still have questions, please join the qq group to ask other players, and the dongle has one year of warranty.
