I thought I'd take a moment to mention that some jailbroken iPhones can now be a PS Freedom (jailbreaking) device. Apparently it's with some rubbish about bootloading something android and something something, yadda yadda. Meh.

Also, it seems that all my friends have updated to 3.42 despite me warning them not to. Oh well . . .

What makes you say that m8?

What, you didn't notice? :eek:

I mean honestly, look at the size of that guys f***ing nails. Holy shit! :laugh: I dunno about you but I wouldn't trust a man with nails that long.

More seriously though I've seen several sites all claiming that the PS3Break works just fine. I would imagine it's just another AVR dev board in a convenient package. Easy Rhino is just a pessimist.

it is true that i am a pessimist in this instance. for me, it is all about value. what value does a jailbroken ps3 bring to me? nothing. you cannot play the games online and you will never be able to update your firmware or get stuff from the playstation store. in reality, the jailbreak cripples the ps3 more than empowers it. very few games out there anyway, no real homebrew apps worth trying out and still no OtherOS or MKV support. so i won't trust any of these workarounds until it is actually worth it to do so.

It wont be long before the hackers release 'hacked' updates for the console, so you wont need to go online to update. But yeah, PSN will still be crippled, but lets be honest, who cares, its rubbish. Actually, Im only saying that because I have a 360 for MP and LIVE is much better than PSN. My PS3 is onlt used for exclusive titles, BD's, MP3 and XvidHD :D

But if you use the PS3 for everything, I can see why you wouldnt want to lose PSN access.

true. but the whole idea of jailbreaking something is to open it up, not take away parts of it. some people think it is worth the sacrifice right now. i don't.

they need to pull a PSP with modded firmware. my psp when it does an update points to a hacked server with the new version of the modded firmware instead of the official PS network.

Yep.

In the 'news' a few days ago it was mentioned that someone may be able to modify the PSGroove/PSFreedom code to change the mounting of dev_flash (the firmware chip if I remember correctly) to a USB drive. This would allow a safe way to both load and test custom firmwares. (source)

I wouldn't trust a CFW on my PS3, until someone finds out how to put the PS3 into debug mode, for brick recovery. :D

That's also mentioned in the link I posted.

SKFU @ http://www.ps3news.com/forums/plays...-research-ps3-usb-custom-firmware-112555.html
The retail PS3's registry contains all values to unlock the settings which are possible on a test/debug PS3 and even more like QA mode. We can enable those via the registry, but we won't see any effect in the XMB.

That is because we just UNLOCKED it, but different files on dev_flash handle what we can actually SEE in the XMB. So we need to modify them also to fully use debug options on a retail and more.

Mine is already crippled anyway. I have no online, can't buy from the store, and can't play the newest games. Those of us on 3.15 already have those disadvantages, but now, at least I might get some good homebrew out of this.

I am patiently waiting to see what homebrew comes out of this. FTP is a nice first step to push >4GB files onto it, so the first hurdle for getting huge mkvs on there is already overcome.

I'm thinking that full cfw could possibly come out of this, that will allow us to have online, Other OS, and still have homebrew.

It's only a matter of time now before we get the good stuff.

yeah i've been looking all morning at the options. canceled my order. you can also do this with an xbox360 jtag nand flasher! (usb)

i'm not ready to get banned just from screwing around yet...

I eventually want to get a used xbox & ps3 that I can backup all of my games on, onto HDDs so I can never have to use discs. i've got a big enough library of purchased games and it will continue to grow... I don't even care about downloading free ones, I just hate switching discs!!

It Only Does Lawsuits.

I know I'm kinda getting my necrophile on but this is just too funny:

Sony subpoenowned everyone, sues everyone else.


I looked through a bunch of the exhibits and the only part of it I understood was that Sony doesn't know how to disable flash advertisements when they're printing out "evidence". They have several pages of completely unrelated advertisements. :laugh:

I read someone saying PS JailBreaking is perfectly legal in America following the new ruling (which I forgot what that was). Is this true?

I got my 'Teensy++ 2.0 USB Atmel AT90USBKEY' called the PS3AVR the other day. Guess what, its a fake :mad:

It seems that a lot of online retailers got duped and were sent nothing more than a Micro SD card reader with the card slot removed :(

Oh well, hopefully PayPal will refund my cash :D I have a real device on its way to me now ;)

Personally, I would say that the device and Jailbreaking of the console is fine, but the backing up of original titles is the illegal part ;)

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.
