I have no idea. I'd love to see whatever new ruling you're referring too.

I think it's obvious from Sony's filings that they're playing the "circumvention device" card (which is related to the DMCA). I don't know if the PSGroove/PSFreedom/PSJailbreak code uses any copyrighted code but Sony could play that tune as well.

I think it would be safe to assume that Sony has enough money (and desire) to keep this tied up in litigation till Jesus comes back, dies again, then comes back once more, dies a third time, the universe ends and finally they repeal the patriot act.

SONY will fight this from now and until the PS4 hits the shelves. But the code is out there and they cant stop the hackers doing their thing ;)

I do love resurrecting the Dead. Especially the Grateful kind.

Anyway, it appears that Linux is back on the PS3. Check it out!

Git: http://git.marcansoft.com/?p=asbestos.git

For those of you who like things that are bright and shiny read this tid-bit from the blog:
As additional perks of running as GameOS, you also get access to a seventh SPE (needs a kernel patch to enable) and there is clearly full access to the RSX including 3D support, although we still need to learn a few details about how that works to be able to use it.

I can imagine some University chaps being rather happy about this.

Cool, handy to know ;)

Im in a pickle atm :( My console is @ 3.41 and Im running Open Manager 1.161 (so I can install all of my owned titles to the internal 500GB HDD ;) ) BUT, because SONY are trying to block this exploit (who would blame them really) certain MOVE titles that require updates wont run :( So the question is, do I just bite the bullet and update to 3.50? :cry:

Hackers have already come up to play EA MMA and Medal of Honor.

Yeah, Ive seen that MoH can be ran, even though it requires fw 3.42 or above. But its the downloadable update issue thats annoyiing me. I see that a PS3 Break v1.2 is out now and they claim that it gets round the downloadable update problem....but I will believe it when I see it.

I thought I already saw where people were able to update titles while jailbroken?

I'm still not biting the bullet until Jailbreaking makes it so I can log in to PSN to download stuff like netflix and other content, and gives me better playback support. The AVCHD utility is a step in the right direction for playback tho.

You can definitely update games with jailbroken 3.41 systems-- I think. You can even use your computer to download the updates. Check it out.

I know that you need the hermes 4(a) payload to install them though. Most people recommend using OpenManager v2.1 but you'll have to check on that yourself.

I dont blame you tbh.

mmmmmmm, I will give you an example. Resident Evil 5 - Gold Edition (Move compatible right out of the box, no update needed, unlike the older Gold Edition). I installed the entire game to the internal HDD. When I launch the game (from the HDD) it then has to do a further install. But this install throws up an error so the game is unplayable.

I even tried installing it with the console in the standard mode (no hacking dongle used) but when you then try to launch the game from the HDD (in hacked mode) it comes back with the error.

At the moment, I dont think anybody has been has been able to play this title in debug mode (plus there are plenty of other titles like this, Brunswick Bowling, Full Auto 2....I could go on)

I'm still not buying their overpriced POS, especially since they only let you downgrade once. I'll wait for the scene to reverse it.

And you can't log in to PSN without 3.50. No jailbroken consoles log in yet. xoeo is working on a pl3 payload that spoofs fw 3.50, but still hasn't found everything needed to allow connection to psn.

I can say for a fact that I'm on firmware 3.41 using my TI84 to jailbreak my PS3 with a spoofed version of Payload 4 AKA PSNPayload 2 and I can get on PSN.

The spoof works. :) and it works great. Although I might get banned, I'm playing Black Ops online baby!

So you can log onto psn and download games and demos and such?

That link still says no PSN access.

That much I'm not so sure about. Like I said I just use my Ti Calculator and it does the trick.

New ones come out all the time but they are all pretty much the same shit. Just be sure to get one thats confirmed working and is popular so you can be sure you will have the latest jailbreaks.

I'd post links here but I'm afraid.

So it seems.

This appears to be the last leg for the PS3's security, badly broken. There is nothing stopping the flood of open source software and modding now.

Or so it seems...

Oh the possibilities! I like how they are calling Sony's Security Epic fail and how Xbox 360 is now more secure than Sony's PS3!! HAHA :laugh:

No, because Windows doesn't run on PowerPC hardware.

And dammit, all I want is to be able to have all the features I paid for (like linux), want psn access (mostly for Netflix), and be able to play more formats (perhaps a port of XBMC). I really couldn't care less about playing backups. The only thing that would make me care about backups is if mine stopped reading BDs.
