Hacking Increase XMB Pages?!

[DocBo]

Hi, is it possible to increase the maximum of 10 pages?!

At best, it will require hex editing of the launcher (which is not "XMB"): if you do that, of course it will become unsigned, so it would absolutely require Enso and the console won't boot without signature patches...

It could be done with a plugin, to dodge the above issue; however you would still get references to pages higher than 10 in the app.db, which may or may not break other programs...

...and of course, there may still be some other hard limit (such as memory for icons)!

I recall reading there is a limit of 500 icons so not sure why 10 pages is a restriction when one page can hold 100 icons in 10 folders of 10 items.

Hmmm memory limit for a bunch of icons, its just small png links.
No idea why that much memory should need.
But as you say it seems probably not possible.
