Somebody made a post in one of the other topics (which I now can't find and therefore give credit to) but what is this likely to mean for PS3 backwards compatibility on a PS4?
It was me speculating. PS3's security is royally screwed so all Sony can do now is focus on the PS4 security development. With the PS3's security being so buggered allowing the PS4 to run PS3 software could be a minefield for Sony to try and make sure nobody could use it as a backdoor to the PS4 mode.Magoo222 said:Somebody made a post in one of the other topics (which I now can't find and therefore give credit to) but what is this likely to mean for PS3 backwards compatibility on a PS4?
Can someone explain what appldr and isoldr mean?ThePowerOutage said:3.41, 3.50 and 3.55 appldr keys released by netkas except the 3.55 key that were released by anonymous
1.00 to 3.30 an 3.55 isoldr keys released by Mathieulh
Probably just means that different firmwares had different keys for software that's either on disc or downloaded from PSN.SpaceJump said:Can someone explain what appldr and isoldr mean?ThePowerOutage said:3.41, 3.50 and 3.55 appldr keys released by netkas except the 3.55 key that were released by anonymous

It just means we have the capabilities of hacked systems on non-hacked systems.DigitalDeviant said:So now that people will have the ability to put their own apps and loaders onto the console and the system will see them as "legit" does this create a window of opportunity for the possibility of making the ps3 blu-ray region free or is access to the drive and its configuration still a long way off?
GBATemp's a big enough site to attract attention from Sony though. They might not be able to do anything in court but you can bet they're going to try to throw their weight around about this and cause trouble.DeadlyFoez said:What is the reason that keys are not allowed to be posted here? It has already been ruled in the federal courts of MANY countries that encryption and security key can not be called copyrighted code so there is nothing infringing on posting them here and Sony can't do a darn thing about it.

While this is of course true, DeadlyFoez is still asking an interesting question (and by all likelyhood he already knows what you said about where to find the keys and has an idea of the amount of people on here that would be able to use them).prowler_ said:If we could, what is the point in posting them?DeadlyFoez said:What is the reason that keys are not allowed to be posted here?

Searching geohot alone gives you a link to his website with the keys on it and I bet 95% of GBAtemp wouldn't even know what to do with them.
Because the people who have posted them should not have the threads closed and posts deleted if it is fully legal to do. Sony has bigger fish to fry than worry about gbatemp especially with psx-scene posting up everything.prowler_ said:If we could, what is the point in posting them?DeadlyFoez said:What is the reason that keys are not allowed to be posted here?

I'd be interested in hearing the answer as well.
ThePowerOutage said:If you missed it, you can now run GT5 and a few other 3.50+ games on 3.41 using a patched eboot. Sauce = PSX-Scene
Aren't the EBOOT.BIN files posted over there COMPLETELY illegal? Seeing as how they're ripped from discs and patched? Surely for it to be legal, they should be distributed as .diff patches with instructions on how to apply them or something like that?
QUOTE(hova1 @ Jan 3 2011, 05:40 PM) cool, but when can people do something who don't own a jailbreak device?
Yeah, but I was talking about pure homebrew, rather than "backup" launchers. People have been saying that'll run with no modification, which I think isn't actually true.DeadlyFoez said:Even more than that, the system calls that allow redirection of the BR drive are required too which will need a CFW so the games can still launch
