โ๏ธActivating HEN Enabler:
Now that you have successfully installed HFW 4.90 onto your device. Now we need to install HEN.
Installing HEN can take a while to install. The PS3 has to successfully receive a custom payload that will allow your PS3 to be modified. This process can take multiple tries before HEN is initialized on your device. As well this process may require you to reset your PS3 MULTIPLE TIMES.
Step 1: Configuring Network Settings in PS3 Internet Browser
Under the Network
column in XMB, please enter into the Internet Browser
application. Once youโre in the Internet Browser
we're going to delete some files within the browser. Hit Triangle
on your PS3 controller which will display a side menu as showcased here:
Step 2: Tool Setting Setup
Assuming that the side menu is still activated on your PS3, go to the Tools
tab. From the Tools
tab we need to disable/clear the following features:
Confirm Browser Close
turn this settingOff
Home Page
make sure to set this setting asBlank Page
Make sure to
Delete Cookies
and hitYes
to confirm this setting.Make sure to
Delete Search History
and hitYes
to confirm this setting.Make sure to
Delete Cache
and hitYes
to confirm this setting.Make sure to
Delete Authentication Information
to confirm this setting.
Step 3: PS3Xploit Setup
Update 2/21/2023: Unfortunately, both domainsps3xploit.me
and ps3xploit.com
is down. Users should use the GitHub URL "ps3addict.github.io" to install HEN on their consoles. For more information about this matter please refer to the official PSXPlace Forum post.
Once all of the following settings have been initialized. Within the Internet Browser
you want to go to https://ps3addict.github.io
Now that you're on https://ps3addict.github.io
you want to select the following option:
Mirror of Official HEN Installer/Enabler from ps3xploit.me (HEN 3.2.0 on HFW 4.84 to 4.90)
Once you have launched that option you should be redirected to the PS3 HEN Installer page
which will download a file called PS3HEN.p3t
Step 5: Initializing HEN
Once the
PS3HEN.p3t
file has been downloaded, within thePS3 HEN Installer page
select the option that statesInitialize HEN installer
once the process has initialized you should see a green message stating that the HEN installer initialized successfully.
Step 6: HEN Installer Page
The next option that you want to select within the
PS3 HEN Installer page
isInstall HEN
only if you got theHEN installer initialized successfully message.
Once HEN has been activated you should get an image that statesWelcome to HEN 3.2.0
.
Step 7: Installing Latest_HEN_Installer_signed.pkg
Once you see the
Welcome to HEN 3.2.0 message
you can exit out of theInternet Browser
. Once you have exited the browser, you should see a package.pkg file
being downloaded to your PS3. The file is 11MB and is calledLatest_HEN_Installer_signed.pkg
Let this package file be fully installed before restarting your PS3.
Step 8: Enabling HEN
Once you start back up your PS3 head over to the
Game
column you should see 2 new options on your XMB which isโ Enable HEN
&โ Package Manager.
If you have these 2 new options that means HEN has been successfully installed.
