Not getting banned on PS3 CFW PSN

This tutorial will be simple as long as you decide to keep it simple, okay? Getting banned on a PS3 CFW has been very rare for me. It's all because of the tutorial I am about to give you. Not doing one of these steps could impact your ban factor. Part of the tutorial is for DEX and the other is for CEX so if you don't know which one you are then you are CEX. This tutorial is for PSN only.

Requirements>------

PS3 CFW
Backup Manager (If you play backup games)
Rebug Toolbox (If you are on a DEX console)
PSN account (Without this it's useless)
PSNPatch
PSNinja

Steps>------
1. Disable PS3 internet connection.
2. If you use backup games then load the backup game first.
3. Open PSNPatch
4. Either hold Triangle or X it doesn't matter. (I usually choose Triangle)
5. It should then exit the application and the PS3 should beep once.
6. Open PSNinja and select options 1, 2, 3, and 5 then exit.
7. Now you can sign in to PSN.
8. Enable PS3 internet connection.
1. Disable PS3 internet connection.
2. If you use backup games then load the backup game first.
3. Open Rebug Toolbox, check your system information to double check if you are DEX. (It will say DEX or CEX, if it says both something is wrong with the way you flashed.)
4. Go over to Utilities then go all the way down to, "Change Active PS3ID", it should say "No".
5. Click on it then select, "Use EID5: 84 (CEX)". Then let it do it's thing and exit afterwards.
6. Open PSNPatch
7. Either hold Triangle or X it doesn't matter. (I usually choose Triangle)
8. It should then exit the application and the PS3 should beep once.
9. Open PSNinja and select options 1, 2, 3, and 5 then exit.
10. Now you can sign in to PSN.
11. Enable PS3 internet connection.

Extra Tips>------

1. If you like to clear you're history after you are done playing online you should go to some games and play them for a few minutes so that Sony doesn't see you online for 4 hours, but playing nothing. That could be suspicious for them.
2. Don't be an idiot. This is simple, modding is an easy way out of PSN. I don't mod which is the reason I have a long standing CID.
3. Don't share CID numbers. If Sony can see two CID numbers online at the same time it can get suspicious.


Conclusion>------

You can now go online to PSN on a DEX or CEX. Now keep in mind this tutorial is only for PSN and not for the game banning servers. I will be making a tutorial for how to get online in a game no ban. Hope this helps!

WARNING: A BAN IS NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY! ONLY YOU'RE RESPONSIBILITY!
Edited: Added some more steps to ensure no ban. 9/11/2016.

I remember something about the folder structure of the ps3 or the external hard drive. Don't you have to change the name of some folders? Like the GAMES folder?

And, "not for the game banning servers", what does that mean, that with this you can't play any game, or are some forbidden ones?

sorry to bump this old thread, but i recently installed psnpatch and the plugin on 4.81.2 rebug and now the ps3 freezes 10-15 seconds after starting up. i can access recovery mode without freezing. i'd prefer not to restore the ps3 since i have a lot of data i'd like to keep, but if that's the only solution, i will.

Don't use anything else, but the things required in my tutorial and you will be fine.

i don't understand how that would help me in this situation. i followed the instructions, and now my ps3 freezes when i start it.

edit: i ended up swapping it out for a bigger hard drive since i would've needed to format it anyway.

Did you re-instll the PSNpatch plugin? I also got stuck in a freezing loop like you did when I first installed the plugin.

I wouldn't use PSNPatch. It's one of the oldest spoofing methods, and it ALWAYS gets your ass banned after 3-4 weeks.

What are your experiences with the success rate?

I have never got banned, sometimes I mod sometimes I don't. It's been 2 years using this method.

Yeah old lol, that explains why it is still being updated and is highly recommended over other things.

PSNPatch was the biggest shit ive ever used. Always got banned after 3 weeks or so. Its an old method, because it was made in 2014. Sony knows it too good. SEN Enabler is way better and by the way if you mod online your PS3 deserves nothing more than to be burned down.

Will I get banned if I play online on a legit game on a cfw ps3? I'm on Spy Cex 4.81.

it's unknown what exactly sony looks for when it comes to bannings. it seems to be more the games u play rather than being on cfw in general. some games try to write files to specific location or attempt to read certain folders which they shouldn't have access to. this is what Nintendo used to do with ap on the nds. it's a very simple method really, and it works, so take the same precautions u would with any backup.

Yeah what @godreborn said, don't sync trophies, try not to mod, and don't play games while signed in when you don't need to be signed in. Have fun!

Thanks! I just bought uncharted 3 and would like to try online gaming on it. There was a time I signed in on my psn and played some backup and I realized I shouldn't be doing that... so now I don't sign in my psn acct anymore. I'll try to follow the steps provided by the OP here. :)
