Geohot: Full 3.55 CFW PS3 Jailbreak Is Working!

[cwstjdenobs]

Now if he'd worked out some way to get some rights escalation going from a normal signed app and apply the patches in memory this would be really cool. That would have been much more resistant to been useful to pirates too but meh. And unless you have a way to restore a NOR/NAND backup (depending on your PS3) I'd not run anything that actually patches system software permanently yet.

EDIT: Or somehow a unsigned self/elf loader so you only had to install one package.

Well it was already irresponsible of him to publicly release the keys, since fail0verflow only documented how to actually obtain them, it could've been that only those who dared to obtain them were worthy to use them.
Get a grip. f0 made this as possible just as much as he did. The people who are responsible for piracy are those involved in it, nobody else.


QUOTE(Rydian @ Jan 9 2011, 08:59 AM) Geohot announced his hack months after Sony removed OtherOS (and then released it a while after that), check a calendar please.

Umm, geohots exploit = January 2010. OtherOS removed = April 2010.

PS3 slim released with OtherOS removed = August September 2009

EDIT: It was only announced in August.

no point to this yet it lol

 

[croagunk.master]

Do you need to re-pair your controllers after installing the CFW?

 

[Jamstruth]

"all your ps3 is mine."

"All your PS3 belongs to us"

"All your PS3 are belong to us."

IT TOOK 3 TRIES TO GET THAT?!?!?! SERIOUSLY?!?!

Anyway. Sony, you are on the way to destruction. You have no time to survive make your time.

I just hope the various jailbreak devices will be made compatible with 3.55 so we can use psn again.

There's no need for 'jailbreak devices' anymore real soon, we only need a backup loader for 3.55 now

 

[croagunk.master]

Somebody please answer my question....

 

[pikachu945]

geohot has disabled something in his custom firmware but I forget what it is

 

[ThePowerOutage]

He disabled the signing check. So now you won't have to sign software.

Uh, no... If he did, then you could run old homebrew now. He will be releasing signing tools soon for "new" homebrew. And the reason why backup managers won't work, is because lv2 isn't patched for playing backups.

[ZombiePosessor]

Quoted for great justice!

And shit like this is why false rumors like geohot causing OtherOS's removal spread. People repeat shit without checking it.

Oh well, I checked my shit, geohot's just riding on someone else's shit, lol

lv2 patching

lv2 patching allows you to read backups.

 

[powerking56]

Since geohot has disabled lv2 patching, is it enabled on kakaroto's cfw??

 

[connor_walsh]

Since geohot has disabled lv2 patching, is it enabled on kakaroto's cfw??

Nope , at least i think it has been disabled

I'm pretty sure it isn't. Not 100% sure though.
