GT5 on cfw 3.55 method

[mikymax972]

Hi,i need help for install gran turismo 5 on cfw 3.55,someone have a method for this? or a link for a tutorial please? i try with the old method but I have a blackscreen when is start,please i need help.

There is no working method..

Lets gather things we have tried.. so that noone needs to try the exact same as everyone else..

I have tried the usual, edit all bdvd to hdd0 etc. and got black screen.
have also tried editing the gameID in the PARAM.SFO.. also black screen.

Try changing the GAMEID:

Nope, I changed it in 4 places: The name of the .conf file, in the .conf file itself and the name of the folder.Change the .SFO too. After that, it worked fine. However, installing the game data takes a LONG time because it's going from HDD to HDD rather than BD to HDD.

EDIT: My apologies. I got the same error the first time around, then I changed the .SFO file too. My bad.

I tried that.. never got to the install..
edit: btw, the guy you are quoting is talking about GTA4 not GT5

c* can you make a tutorial,i want try your method,i have BCES00569 version. search on the web I have find 2 method the 1st don't work for me,and the second is in spanish i don't understand the method i post the method if you want.


1st method

Installable Gran Turismo 5 on XMB.

Backup your Gran Turismo 5 disc using a PS3 FTP server to your computer. I recommend Blackb0x FTP.

Download this: MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Copy PKG to a memory stick and plug this into your PS3.

Install Package from XMB (requires 3.55 Geohot).

Run Gran Turismo 5 from the XMB, Don’t worry if it black screens and you can’t access XMB, it’s supposed to do this.

Restart your PS3.

Open your FTP program again, and run your FTP server on PS3. Navigate to dev_hdd0/BCUS98114/USRDIR/

Copy the following files from your backed up GT5 disc: GT.VOL and the Movies folder. DO NOT COPY EBOOT.BIN. Leave the one that is already in there alone, this is the modified EBOOT.BIN that allows it to boot from the HDD.

Once this is complete. Exit your FTP Server and run the game from XMB. Cancel the update as this will overwrite the modified EBOOT.BIN and will stop the game booting and you will have to do the whole thing again.

Have fun.

no work for me


2nd in spanish

Es 1 buena informacion!

Prueben todos los que esten con el GT5 xD

de poner el USRDIR en la ruta
como dice aca
http://www.******.com/showthread.php...ll=1#post99927

Esta ruta metan su USRDIR "/dev_hdd0/0GT5GAME/" pero tmb adema de meter el USRDIR vallan a la carpeta "/dev_hdd0/game/BCES00569" Copian las 2 carpetas LICDIR Y TROPDIR a su PC y luego la suben en la carpeta "/dev_hdd0/0GT5GAME/

PD: No tienen que moverlo tienen que copiar y para copiar lo que tienen que hacer es de PS3 pasar las 2 carpetas a SU PC y luego de su PC subirla ala nueva direccion ocea "/dev_hdd0/0GT5GAME/"

Entonces esta Ruta quedria con estas carpetas
"/dev_hdd0/0GT5GAME/USRDIR"
"/dev_hdd0/0GT5GAME/LICDIR"
"/dev_hdd0/0GT5GAME/TROPDIR"

Si quieren tmb pueden copiar elresto de los archivos los icons ,PARAM.SFO a la carpeta /dev_hdd0/0GT5GAME/ entonces de esa manera les quedria 1 copia exacta de /dev_hdd0/game/BCES00569 pero en /dev_hdd0/0GT5GAME/

Saludos!

what FTP client You use to send files via blackb0x ? I had problems sending GT5 to my PS3 (it's a 19GB FILE !!!!).... always stops after some time and blackb0x can't resume file sending :/
