About the naming of Shop FW. Terms like "SEX" are just pseudonyms, shop firmwares are technically CEX firmwares, they only work on ps3s with a retail (CEX) Target IDs, and the term "shop" is only mentioned in the index.dat, version.txt, vsh.self(update URL). The term "SEX" is never mentioned in Shop FWs. In the UPL.xml, shop FW uses the same '''<Product>''' value as retail FW (CEX-ww). I personally think it is incorrect to exclusively refer to retail FW as CEX FW, and then to say shop FW is SEX firmware as if it is SEX is another kind of target ID. It's more correct to say '''Retail FW'''and '''Shop FW''' and class them both under CEX Firmware, or Firmwares made for CEX consoles. And as a side note, because they are both made for CEX PS3s, it is relatively easy to install either retail or shop fw on a CEX PS3 regardless of which one is already installed. Just generally, naming FWs after target IDs is incorrect, it just so happens that for all PS3 types (except CEX) there is only one FW type which can be used with it.--[[User:Ps3hen|Ps3hen]] 09:18, 22 November 2012 (MSK) | About the naming of Shop FW.

Changed the capcha to simple and added this: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi Let me know if there are any other extensions that could be handy - defyboy
Thanks - euss
- Templates
Something looks broken in some templates (e.g. the ones that are using this image: http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/File:Imbox_content.png), and some others that are using the other icons that appears at the bottom of http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/Category:Templates ^ those are imports from wikipedia or others.
After looking at most of them... i think all the templates needs a revision/update, i imagine you or other members of the staff are aware of it (there are logs of changes in lot of them), and also i imagine is not an easy task, but there are some easy to fix:
- This ones seems to be tests, and can be erased, like:
- http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/Template:Y -> used on http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/QA_Flagging#Debug_Settings_.28CEX.2FDEX.29
- http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/Template:Yes:Failed -> future use reserved @ http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/TemplateTest#Template_Test
- http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/TemplateTest -> Things handy as reference from http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/Wiki_Sandbox_Test need to be moved there
- http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/Template:N -> used on http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/QA_Flagging#Debug_Settings_.28CEX.2FDEX.29
- And others that has been converting to templates but can be moved to a "normal" page like:
^ all above are new 'experimental' formatted using templates to make sure page structure stays uniform while making auto menus more easier
Some icon templates has been replaced by a new ones with better resolution icons, and the names of the files/templates follows a new "naming convention", the new ones are "icon category xxx"
Also, the names for "icon content xxx" templates has been changed, but not the names of the files (can be erased and uploaded again but this is for paranoid ordering)
Another templates for icons that can follow this "naming convention" are the "icon media xxx" (the 4 templates with tiny disc icons used in emulation page mostly)... and "icon controller xxx" (the dualshock and move buttons that are a lot, but are not used too much in other pages)

Uncomfirmed Filesystem mountpoints
Hi euss.. i found these FS supported by the PS3 on the net. they aren't listed on the wiki:
CELL_FS_ADMINFS // ???
CELL_FS_DUMMYFS , /host_root , /app_home
CELL_FS_HOSTFS
CELL_FS_PSEUDO
CELL_FS_EFAT, /dev_usb000 (what is the difference between this and CELL_FS_FAT?)
CELL_FS_PFAT, /dev_usb000 (what is the difference between this and CELL_FS_FAT?)
CELL_FS_LOOP
Listed on the wiki
CELL_FS_UFS
CELL_FS_ISO9660
CELL_FS_UDF
CELL_FS_FAT
CELL_FS_SIMPLEFS
i only need to know if they are real or not and what they do.
Here are the Mountpoints that are listed on the wiki http://ps3devwiki.com/wiki/Files_on_the_PS3.. maybe a new page with them can be really useful!

shop firmware
Euss, have you used 4.3X shop firmware before? As the 4.3X still uses the same method that pre 4.3X firmwares to stub all XMB items except those "sel://" calls, stubbing those is done by the modules which prevent them from working.--Ps3hen 15:34, 19 November 2012 (MSK)
- Actually I was referring to CEX/Retail and the default MFW tasks used to add Install Packages. Didnt look far into it, was just glad to see wiki was up, saw your edit and it reminded me of something in my backlog of that day, so I thought, lets add that note before I forget Euss

- The SEX shortcode is just a made up name. It saves you from writing "CEX/Retail patched to Shop/Kiosk/Demonstration by adding promo_flags in root of PUP or a firmware officially downloaded from Shop updater server which updates independant from normal CEX/Retail server" - see also Target ID Euss
