standing on the right holding a finger up in the air reprimandingly. A dialogue
bubble coming out of him on the left that says “Don’t talk to me or my family
unless you’ve watched Arcane”. Arcane being a beautifully animated 2-season-long
Netflix show with phenomenal character writing, immersive world building and a
noteworthy soundtrack. It’s about to air its final episodes this weekend and I
highly recommend watching it. :::

Dualsense/Edge/Dualshock Firmware Upgrade Tool - Revival Guide

Dualsense/Edge/Dualshock Firmware Upgrade Tool - Revival Guide - Ani.Social
Warning: You might brick your controller! (Do this at your own discretion.) #
Preamble About a month ago, Sony decided to forgo their still-functional
Firmware Updater Tool (you get a “can’t connect to the server” message and it
doesn’t let you download the firmware) and replace it with the PlayStation
Accessories app. This new app does not run on wine at all from what I can see,
so I decided to try and get the previous tool (I’ll call it FWUpdater) working
again. PlayStation Accessories, on launch, connects to playstation’s server
(https://fwupdater.dl.playstation.net/fwupdater/info.json
[https://fwupdater.dl.playstation.net/fwupdater/info.json]) and checks if it’s
version is up-to-date, then checks if there is a new firmware for the
controllers. As it seems, FWUpdater uses the same URL to check its version as
well. As these are completely different programs, and the server reports the
latest version for PlayStation Accessories only, FWUpdater gets confused and
just displays “can’t connect to the server” (correct me if I’m wrong). After
some experimentation, I figured out I could just spoof the version reported from
the server (with mitmproxy) and get FWUpdater to fetch the necessary firmware. #
Prerequisites * Python * Wine * Browser * Terminal-feet # Process ## Step 1:
Setup mitmproxy a. Install mitmproxy from your package manager (or grab the
latest binaries from
mitmproxy.org [https://mitmproxy.org/] and open a terminal in the mitmproxy
folder.) b. Run mitmweb, this should launch a web UI in your browser:
[https://ani.social/pictrs/image/309316a9-bf2d-40aa-be68-054e3b11abdf.webp] c.
Select File in the upper left corner and then Install certificates. This will
open up another page:
[https://ani.social/pictrs/image/dd1411cd-bace-4be1-bdd3-508ccedaa7ed.webp] d.
Setup your browser (in the browser setting) to connect to mitmproxy:
[https://ani.social/pictrs/image/8018e0f1-51df-4d66-add7-15234e8b0bae.webp] e.
Reload the previous page and you should get this:
[https://ani.social/pictrs/image/d22c9c4d-0d50-49e0-8b62-58f6078d2a44.webp] f.
Download the Linux certificate and install them to your system trust store,
following the instructions on the above page for your specific distro (for Arch
Linux, you move the certificate into
/etc/ca-certificates/trust-source/anchors/). g. Revert the proxy settings in
your browser. ## Step 2: FWUpdater a. Download the FWUpdater
[https://pixeldrain.com/u/YWcgTjDH] and extract it. b. Create a new empty file,
paste this in and save it as a python script (.py). from mitmproxy import ctx
from mitmproxy import http import json def response(flow: http.HTTPFlow) ->
None: if flow.request.pretty_url.endswith(“/fwupdater/info.json”): data =
json.loads(flow.response.get_text()) data[“ApplicationLatestVersion”] =
“1.5.0.2” flow.response.text = json.dumps(data) b. Start mitmproxy in a terminal
with the script: mitmproxy -s %Path_To_The_Above_Script.py% c. Start FWUpdater
with the following command: HTTP_PROXY="http://localhost:8080/" wine
%Path_To_FWUpdater.exe% d. Profit. Hope this helps (And I hope I didn’t miss
anything lmao)
