I love how you explain exactly what you’re doing at all times down to even pressing the X button. You explain things in a quick and concise way too so it doesn’t slow things down. That’s honestly really rare with these types of videos. You’re the man!

[shoot_the_glass]

I've procrastinated from doing this thinking it would be a complete and total headache but you made it easy. I ran into an issue with no download and had to make sure javascript was on. It's now downloading the installer needed. Thank you Blaine. 👍

[Wrawny]

Thanks for the guide! A tip that I ran into in the comments mentioned that if your ps3 is picking up the usb but is saying “no media found”, just put your ps3 into “safe mode” then continue to follow the steps shown in the video. Worked like a charm!

[MatthewReyna]

You are a lifesaver. I’ve been waiting and praying for this video. Bless you for helping the gaming/modding community. Your videos are the sole reason I started modifying my consoles

[dochikari]

IMPORTANT: Please update your PS3 Homebrew BEFORE updating HFW and HEN, in that order. Older versions of Webman will cause HEN 3.2.0 to freeze on initialization and lock users out of all their Homebrew functions. I had to wipe my drive to fix this without an ERK for my console/drive.
Holding R2 button while starting HEN may allow users to update outdated WebMan, (this disables plugins), hope this helps!

Finally. And to get the tutorial from the master himself. Thanks again Blaine, I’ve been waiting for hen 4.90 to come out.

[bbbbb-jj]

bro i swear this is the one uncle i wish i had bro his tutorial is so straightforward and easy

[BUSTER_]

For those having trouble installing the update on the Main menu

( Use boot menu )
Turn off your ps3 then hold power button until the console turns itself off
Let go off the power button and hold it again until a menu pops up

When it pops up connect your controller directly to PS3 using cable then press ps button
Navigate to update system and until you see a menu which says connect the usb which contains the update whatever and press start and select at the same time

Hope this helps

This is a true legend! He's the only reason I started modding.

First video I've ever seen of yours but I just want to say I love how straight forward and to the point your video is where you get the perfect balance of explaining things allot of people watching probably don't need to hear in enough detail anybody can figure what you're talking about but you don't spend so long on it as to talk to people like they're dumb. Regardless If you're new to this kind of thing and never done it or are experienced and just need the meat and potatoes of the videos you're very respectful to the time of both parties. I've seen several content creators that would have stretched this video to 20 minutes plus so wanted to highlight that point. Thank you!

0:34 Ayo did any of you guys see that ad 💀

[adrusht]

Everything was so clear! I love it 😊! I’ve followed only your videos for the past 2 versions

[MikeyDunksMusic]

Just bought a 1Tb internal for my old ps3. Gonna do this as soon as it arrives! Thanks Blaine!

When I go to system update and go to Update Via storage media it’s says ‘No applicable data was found ‘ need help

[thomassmells]

For people finding it says no applicable file or whatever but the usb is being picked up in photos, here's how to fix it because nobody is saying it properly.

You do need to load it in safe mode if this happens, however nobody has said correctly how to do this. First turn off the console. Then press and hold the power button. It will turn on, and keep holding the button. It will beep after a few seconds, keep holding the button. Keep holding until it powers off again. Then press and hold the power button again. This time there will be 2 quick beeps after a few seconds. When you hear this stop holding the button and it will have booted in safe mode


Then just follow the instructions on the playstation screen and it should all work. Nobody else said you have to do the power button TWICE not once

[JV-tkyn]

I recently jailbroke my friend's ps3 fully and had to use a smaller youtuber's guide and while it was difficult I managed to get thru it. This video is PERFECT for my ps3 tho since it's a newer version slim and I need hen thanks man!

[RaptorZX]

If you already have an older version of HFW and HEN, by updating both (this video) will simply update those two, everything else you previously had installed (games, emulators, etc...), will still work fine.

[Fatalis_K]

This content is why I subbed. Great, clear instructions in a timely manner.

[djpainkiller]

The most easiest tutorial ever thank you everyone else who shown how to do it makes it so long and complicated and not clear and their methods never worked for me you’re the only one who works for me👍🏻

[JustSomeGuyLV]

The one thing should be noted at the beginning of video - if in the start of this all you get the text ''no applicable update was found'' while trying to install HFW update from USB flash within PS3 normal mode, you must boot into RECOVERY MODE and install the update from there (bottom menu). And then when install done, install the same HFW update again from within PS3 normal mode. ONLY THEN you can move to installing HEN.
