PS Jailbreak - The first PS3 Modchip

[antwill]

I can't wait for the TI-84+ version

They still make those? I thought they only made the 89's now.

I don't know if they still make those, but I know they still sell them.
Anyway, it doesn't matter if they make them or sell them, it matters I have one and Brandon Wilson is trying to port PSGroove to work on it, so..

lol.. i tried it.. but sucks... bd-emulation is no good... ;(

anyway there a install pkg option... is there "any" homebrews in Ps3 yet... ???

seriously.. this homemade hack is kinda useless for now..... waiting for the PS3news crew to enable bd-emu..

So you are saying you tried it with the patch, which should enable the Backup Manager, but it didn't work?
If you used the normal version and waiting for it to run backups, well.. you should try the patched version.

 

[Gilberd]

anyone going to try the psgroove method?

Aman27deep: Except that you need a game disc (any official) in the drive in order to play backups, if the laser is dead it won't detect it.

There has already been plenty of homebrew that sucked, the only good homebrew was done by game devs, what makes you think with the release of the jailbreak people will suddenly know how to code for the ps3 any better?

There hasn't been much of a reason since normal people couldn't run homebrew, only a very, very small amount of people that happened to have a dev/test system.

Now that anybody can run homebrew, there's actual reason to write cool homebrew for the masses, now that they can actually use it...

That doesn't change the fact that even game developers have stated its hard to write for the PS3 what makes you think the average joe is any better?

It's hard to write code that pushes the system to it's limit. Things like a port of Super Mario War (I love that game) would be awesome and fairly easy to re-write.

ok i just seen and it and somehow..edited the descriptor.h as said by CJPC.. and applied the patch to my teensy++

---

now tried the jailbreaks backup loader...... = wont work
trying the patched backup manager ....... = ok it boots up..

until now.. trying to backup Valkyria Chronicles for now, 13mins left...

ill let you know guys if it works

I have bought a TI-84+ for school, so I would love that!

Just uploaded a pre compiled patched version of psgroove to filetrip. I have not received my teensy ++ so I have not tested it yet. If some one tries it could you let me know if it works I found it on a private tracker this morning.

 

[nico445]

so if i got this right. you need such a teensy programmer board and the software. and then you can just enable it on your ps3 and you don't need the board anymore?

Can Sony detect a person using this under the following scenario?

Unplug the ethernet cable from the PS3 or disable the wireless connection to it
Play backups using the jailbreak OFFLINE ONLY
Remove/uninstall the jailbreak and play a legit disc or PSN game online

Basically, are we safe as long as it is removed/uninstalled before going online?

I want to know this too, this is the only thing stopping me getting amongst one of these jailbreak things.......

 

[dnniwa485]

sweet... it works..

gonna go borrow some games on my friend now...

time to fill up my 500gigo HDD..

well cant compare the load time though.,... but i can see that the HDD activity is blinking that hard... xD

@D34DL1N3R

well thats common sense though... just disconnect your PS3 in any form of network connection. (unless you know that your LAN or you setup your router's firewall to block any transmission from PS3 to go out to the internet.)

ban is ban... lol..

Congrats dnniwa485! and thanks for keeping us informed.

what happened to the flashed drive firmware ?These aren't flash drives, for like the 8 millionth time.

That doesn't change the fact that even game developers have stated its hard to write for the PS3 what makes you think the average joe is any better?Specifically the cell processor has "8 cores", it's hard to write multi-threaded games to that degree in the first place (on PCs, games rarely scale well past three cores, as the main logic, physics, and AI are usually the only demanding aspects the CPU will handle), but it's not as if homebrew needs to do things to the level that actual games do.

A PSP can watch youtube videos and play 3D homebrew on a single-core mobile processor clocked at 333 mhz, whereas the PS3 has an almost-two-years-newer 8-core "desktop" processor clocked at 3.2ghz... even though coding for the cell processor is different than a single-core processor, you wouldn't have to go nearly the lengths that official programmers do in order to make useful homebrew.

I can't wait for the TI-84+ version

You know, I read that and thought it was a tongue-in-cheek joke, but then again I don't know what sort of hardware the Ti-84+ actually has, mine broke years ago.

QUOTE(Gilberd @ Sep 1 2010, 06:00 AM) anyone going to try the psgroove method?

A good programmer friend of mine ordered one last night, stating that they could also use the board for their own projects (of which there's many), I'm actually interested in what sort of things they'll cook up.

You need to keep the board in. The LED will cut off on the teensy++ only because it's a single LED, so there's not much of another way of showing a change besides annoying flashing.

 

[dnniwa485]

... for those who dont know it yet... the implementation of the chip, depends what board version you were using... and the documentation part and the schematics, you must be able to read this about since this device is for developers only who knows about electronics.

im making some finishing touch with this baby and ill go continue backing up my games later on.

 

[nico445]

hmm wel ps3news said The PSGroove for now allows the very same features as the PSJailBreak but without backup manager support, you can also now remove the dongle.

The original PSJailbreak dongle had a patch that would trigger the lv1 panic hypercall if the dongle wasn't in the list of connected devices.

so it would seem you just need the stick onces. or am i wrong?

not so much into the ps3 thing but a friend of mine would like this

 

[raulpica]

I'm probably still gonna order a Teensy++ for all those sexayness that Teensyduino can do.

But I'll probably use the iPhone version, as soon as it is out.

@nico445
From what I've read, it seems like that. I guess that will pretty much kill all the market the PSJB will ever have. Well, that's a good lesson for selling something SO overpriced.

I hope it wasn't a joke. Brandon did some nice things with TI calculators before.
Oh well, either way, I'll get this Backup Manager running some way. I'll just wait another month and see what's been done by then.

That didn't answer the question at all... of COURSE it's common sense to not play online from a backup. What people want to know is if it's safe to play online using a LEGIT disc or psn game AFTER using the jailbreak.
