During the scene, collect a pinch of ashes and then put blood in the ashes. Allow yourself to be killed afterward and reload your save. This time, collect the ashes but do not put the blood in.

Unlimited Enhancement Crystals for Shale
How to: In Redcliff, convince the innkeeper to join the fight. This will leave the barmaid in charge. Ask her for supplies and she will give you anything in the shop for free. Leave town and go to camp. Come back and get more supplies. Every time you return she will have a random assortment of the current and lower tier below crystals for Shale. They start to sell for 1 Gold Piece after you reach the "Cear" tier.
*** Leaving the town before defending it will result in a lot of dead villagers, possibly the barmaid as well.
Update: You do not need to leave the town for the crystals to reappear. You simply need to leave the inn and re-enter it.

Duplicate Items
How to: You can duplicate gear, ingredients, potions, and other stuff as long as you already have two copies of the item you want to duplicate. It is best to only have the items you want to duplicate in both your Junk inventory and the merchant's. Put at least two of the item you want to copy in the "Junk" section of your bag. Go to any merchant and press sell all the junk in your bag. Now, select the item from the merchant's side, and buy back all but one of the item. Next, select it when it is in your inventory again. Press TRIANGLE followed by X very quickly. This requires precise timing and may require a few attempts, but it becomes easy to do after a few tries. You can keep repeating the process until you have 99 of the item. You can use this glitch with any of the Tomes as well to give your character all magic abilities max attributes by duplicating the Tomes.

Experience Glitch
How to: There is a quest glitch early in the game that allows you to complete part of it and gain experience. You just keep turning in the first part without completing the full quest. Doing this keeps gaining your character experience. I would suggest not leveling to much or it just ruins the game. But maybe to try a different character the 2nd time through so it is a little easier to get started.

See the video: Cheat Video

Level Up Glitch
*** A patch has fixed this. To use the glitch, you will need to avoid the update.

Description: During the Tainted Blood mission in Ostargar, collect the three Vials of Darkspawn Blood but avoid collecting the Grey Warden Treaties. After you have the vials, talk to Duncan and choose the conversation option "We have the blood, but not the scrolls." The conversation will end and you will get experience! You can repeat the conversation and get the experience each time -- you can do this all the way up to the level cap at 25 (if you are patient)! You can click through the conversation fairly quickly once you have done it a few times.

Unlimited Experience Glitch
When doing the "Tainted Blood mission, collect the three vials of Darkspawn Blood, but not the Grey Warden Treaties, and go to Duncan. Tell him "We have the blood, but not the scrolls." to gain the experience for the mission, but not complete it. Keep doing this as long as you like to level up.

Blood Mage Specialization
Now before you read this make sure you have reached Redcliffe and have reached the demon at the end. Now always go with the demon. Your the demon friend. So accept her offer and choose the blood magi option. This will unlock the Blood Mage specialization next time you level up.
Here is a list of the unlockable Blood Mage spells.

The blood mage sucks the life-force from an ally, healing the caster but potentially killing the ally. This healing is not affected by the healing penalty of Blood Magic.

This spell has no effect if cast on Shale.

The blood of all hostile targets in the area boils within their veins, inflicting severe damage. Targets stand twitching, unable to move unless they pass a physical resistance check. Creatures without blood are immune.

The blood mage forcibly controls the target’s blood, making the target an ally of the caster unless it passes a mental resistance check. If the target resists, it still takes 10x damage from the manipulation of its blood. Creatures without blood are immune.

Note: This will not change anything in the story, the same outcome if you choose to kill her.

Get Both Leliana and Morrigan to stay in Love with you at once, Morrigan to fall for you 3x
The way to do this is simple as long as you follow the steps in exact order, but you must save the Orzammar (or at least hold off on giving Morrigan the mirror) quests for last. Otherwise, go about the game building the romantic interest with both ladies. when it comes to the point where they would bump heads, IT IS IMPORTANT that you talk to Morrigan first to end things. If you end with Leliana first then this won't work. Morrigan will claim that if you tell her you are done then that will be the end of it, NOT THE CASE. Woo Leliana as normal and get her to allow you to bed her, but continue to build Morrigan's approval with gifts, convo, etc. When you get to the point when you give Morrigan the first Grimoire, ask her for a kiss and she will have feelings for you again, after this is also when she gave me the ring. At this point go through the part with Leliana where she gives you the ultimatum, Pick her, and it will drop Morrigan's approval, but she should still be at decent standing. After killing Flemeth and delivering the True Grimoire, give it to Morrigan and she will consider you a true friend upon picking the right dialogue. Once you get to Orzammar, go to the lyrium-crazed vendor and buy the mirror. Give it to Morrigan and tell her "its a gift for a beautiful lady" and she will be in love AGAIN. When you start a dialogue with her again, she will ask you your opinion on love, end the conversation with "you are worth my distraction", her approval will only drop 4 points, but after that she will always say, "Your Desire?" when you start a convo. I talked to Leliana after this, she was still at max approval, and she still says the "sweet and attentive" comment, and will still sleep with you at camp, Morrigan, however, when in love will only let you kiss, trying to bed her will drop her approval rating. Even so, you should feel like a stud with having both ladies on your arm.

Easy Tomes For Magic Attibutes
Hope this helps just a hint collect the tomes which let you pick 1 spell point for mages if you collect two of the same tomes and then use the duplicate which is posted and you can level up your mages spells without level up yourself which is handy lol

Easy Duplication
Hi I did the easy money ok so you need at least 2 of the item put the 2 items or more in the your junk then go to any merchant and sell all junk which is triangle then buy just 1 of the item you just sold with that one press triangle quickly followed by X this means you will sell 3 not 2 so you will have 3 of that item in the merchant junk now to repeat and have loads just buy 1 again and repeat method thanx

the only problem is youll have to buy the items back that you duplicate so if you have 10 duplicates than you have to buy all them back but if you do my easy money then should be ok

Easy experience
To get extra experience points earlier in the game, go to the city of Denerim. Find a building named "Wonders of Thedas". Go inside it and purchase the Archivist's Belt. As long as it is equipped, you will get an experience boost for everything in your Codex. Example: Books will increase from 50 experience points to 75 experience points each.

Skill trophy'
Ok the trophys for getting each skill class to 20 in this.. You will need the dlc's to do it.

When you wake up and start talking to marrigan save your game and log out. Then create a game with one of the dlc's after you complete the starting of the cut scenes and talking you get a big boost for the dlc's becuase they require a certian level use all the oints given for your slots (note: I did this under morrigans dlc also you wont get too keep the skill when you go back to main game) once you finish spreading your points you hit level 20 and get the trophy

Easy Money
Hi hope this helps but quite hard to do get your most expensive item in your junk go to any merchant and highlight the item for ps3 hit both triangle and X this should be sell all junk and sell and you double your money keep trying this cheat does work just buy it back for less than just sold and you'll have unlimited money without selling all you stuff hope it help

Easy money redone
Hi this is how to get money quickly ok get 1 of your most expensive item and put it in your junk by pressing triangle ok now go to any merchant and go to junk your 1 item should be there ok now highlight it and press triangle quickly followed by X which is the sell all junk and sell now what happens is you sell it for double just press X to buy it back from the merchant and repeat for quick money

Redcliffe: Possessed child
Once you reach Redcliffe, there will be an option to enter the Possessed boy, apart from killing him and confronting the demon inside of the boy. Do not kill the Possessed boy. Instead, choose the option to enter the boy and let the Blood Mage do his ritual. Once you are inside, talk to the father. Once that is done, you must talk to the boy and kill the demon inside him multiple times. Once you reach a certain part where you talk to the demon straightforward, try to talk with her. Talking with her( the demon) will get you more than just killing her. She will request that in exchange for her life, and the permission to enter the boy's body again in the near future, she will offer you gifts. One is a new specialization. Another is a certain rare item, armor, or weapon. Finally, is pleasure. Pleasure should not be an option, as it does not give you anything in exchange, not even an intimate scene. Select either the item or the specialization. However if you truly do not want to obtain anything useful, kill her. Killing her alone results in the same experience you would get from killing the boy, not to mention the previous times you have also killed her.

Superman reference
How to: This is a random event that happens when traveling on the world map. You will encounter a farmer and his wife who find a baby in a meteor crash. They have decided to take the baby and raise it as their own. You will get the Meteor Ore that the baby came in. It can be made into armor by Wade in Denerim. Your best chance of getting this event is from one of the Chantry Board mission in Redcliffe. Travel straight from Redcliffe to Refugees.

Easy Skills
Its Quite Hard to do as skills are rare they happen on levels 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24 so how to get max quick is to save up 2 skill points for example ull have to wait 2 skill levels then with them 2 points put it in the first slot of your desired skill then press X which is  learn followed by O which is undo quickly all the way to max its very hard and needs to be quick it thinks you are using youre second skill point which you are >nt and boom max skill but you have to have 2 skill points saved might be quite easy with the skill tomes. ok thanx also looks messy coz the 2nd, 3rd are blank but if you max youre skill who cares lol
