PS3 Hacking AIO

NOTE: This TuT is unorganized for now, it's just me jotting down all the info as I remember it, I will fix it when I get home.

The PS3 AIO Tutorial - For Newbs

Terms

There are many terms that are going to be used throughout this tutorial, so here is what they mean.

QUOTE

AIO -> All In One (As in, everything is included)
PS3 -> PlayStation 3 (The Game System)
Firmware -> Basically referring to the Operating System of the PS3
Operating System -> The working conditions of a electronic device, or computer (Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.)
XMB -> Xross Media Bar the operating space of the PS3 and other Sony devices.
OFW -> Original Firmware (Firmware made by Sony)
CFW -> Custom Firmware (Firmware made by Hackers, 3rd parties, etc.)
MFW -> Modified Firmware (This is basically barely edited CFW)

Needed

- PS3 -> ANY PS3! (With a working BD, and at least 1 USB)
- Firmware version of 3.55 or lower (anything higher is unhackable/downgradable)
- Flash Drive -> Should probably be 256mb or more
- A computer, it can be Windows, Linux, Unix, or Mac.
- Noob Brain

Custom Firmware's

Kmeaw's - This is probably the most stable/used CFW, and has the best compatibility.
Rebug's - A CFW meant to bring Debug features to Retail units, but this CFW is probably unstable (According to Mathieulh)
Waninkoko's - If you use this CFW MAKE SURE IT'S V2! V1 caused MANY bricks, mending your PS3 unusable.
Hermes' - I don't know much about this CFW..
Their are tons more, but these are the general ones.

"Jailbreaking"

Jailbreaking is something used back when hacking ps3's first came out, you had to be on 3.41 or lower firmware, than you had to stick a dongle into the PS3, power cycle (flip the switch, or unplug it), than press the power than eject button quickly. The only reason to have a jailbreak anymore is to have a few more features than a CFW, or to put your PS3 into Service Mode.

Things to Download

If your hacking your ps3, there is some things you need to download, and put on your flash drive.

Original Firmware of your choosing (I recommend 3.55), Download here:
Custom Firmware of your choosing (I recommend Kmeaw's), Please Google this.

THIS IS INCOMPLETE!!! Any advice, or anything to help is welcomed greatly!

Of course, they are not very useful to the users, they usually update to 3.15 for OtherOS, or 3.41 because it was the first one with jailbreak method.
