WebmanMod also freezes my Ps3. However, I've found if I use my cellphone or computer to operate webman, the likelihood greatly diminishes. I recommend you to mount/unmount your games using either multiman or webman through another device.

No matter what I do webMAN MOD and RetroArch freeze my PS3. I tried formatting the HDD, change it, reinstall CFW, reinstall webMAN MOD, change its memory settings and even tried another PS3 to no avail.
webMAN_MOD_1.47.42_Installer.pkg.493.v1.47.42_brewology_com.pkg
RetroArch_Psx-Place_Community_Edition_beta04-20220207.pkg
Evilknat.4.89.2 CFW
All backups iso method (Ps1 bin cue, ps2.iso, ps3.iso) and some pkgs installed to home menu

Working beautifully here. Just did a phat + 2tb usb and a slim 1tb internal. Had to use DNS trick for jailbreak since bguerville's PS3 Toolset main is down.

Hen with 4.89 was also working as I tired that 1st on the slim.

How can the phone or the PC be used to run webMAN MOD? It doesn't make sense having to use another device to fix this issue. Also, I was told multiMAN shouldn't be installed if webMAN MOD is installed because the PS3 may freeze.

Do your PS1 games lag? I didn't know ps3xploit.com could be accessed by changing the DNS on the PS3. I can't access it right now on the phone.

You can update wmm and probably Retroarch from within, update to latest.

Already did but if the latest versions are installed, I guess that doesn't have to be done. Anyway, is it possible to do the same for OPL so the latest versions don't have to be downloaded?

I massively used both Webman and Multiman so it can't choose between the two. If you want to connect to webman, you just need to type down the ps3's ip into your browser and that's it! Both devices must be hooked up to the same network.

If your ps3 also freezes while gaming or BD playing, you may want to considered to change the thermal paste.

Now I recall doing that. It also froze that way.

Some of my friends also have this issue right after cleaning the PS3 and applying new thermal paste.

Maybe it's slim/super slim model hen-related thing? When I modded it a year ago everything was working fine and dandy. The anomaly presented itself a couple of months ago and I've been forcefully shutting down my unit.

Do you have lag in the PS1 games? I didn't know one could access ps3xploit.com using a DNS in the PS3. I can't access right now in the phone.

ps3xploit.me is backup but cannot jb a 4.89 ofw since that option is currently removed. With DNS you can access ps3xploit.net and jb 4.89 ofw.

PS3 Fat users also complain about it.

But is it only a current issue or in the near future will ps3xploit.com be accessible without changing the PS3's DNS?

EDIT: The new official site is ps3xploit.me and it works without changing the PS3's DNS.

Did you read that somewhere?
Yeah its on psx-place straight from the devs and thats how we got the dns workaround.

Their shit was illegally sold off so they are migrating. Nevertheless you can still jb all cfw'able models as long as dns works.

For the peple having freeze issues have you guys tried only installing webman + Retroarch? Perhaps something else isntalled is causing issues?

I don't use Retroarch in ps3. I have Multiman and Webman Mod and , as I said before, both are essential to me.

Yes. Even if using only one of them I have this problem.

I've been told this problem may also happen with both multiMAN and webMAN MOD installed.

EDIT: I installed RetroArch CE (unofficial Beta updated 2022-03-11) and it no longer freezes my PS3 but the console still freezes outside it so could it be webMAN MOD's fault? Anyway, I guess I'll use PS TV's RetroArch (and PS Vita's) since it's often updated unlike PS3's RetroArchs (the official is no longer available in RetroArch's site [it says "coming soon" for years, which I find it odd]) and delete the latter. PS2's and PSP's RetroArch are slow and some of the former's cores cause a black screen and some of the latter's cores even turn of the consold so I won't use PS2's and PSP's RetroArch as well. I won't run emulators on the PS2 but on the PS TV and PS Vita (RetroArch, like I said) and I'll run EmuMaster and UO gpSP Kai on the PSP, even though EmuMaster is somewhat slow (at least it doesn't turn off the PSP like some RetroArch's cores).

EDIT 2: I bought an used PS3 since the previous stopped reading BRs, installed webMAN MOD's latest version and it hasn't been freezing my PS3 so maybe it was the previous PS3's HDD's fault. Anyway, I got used to IRISMAN so I uninstalled webMAN MOD.
