UPDATE: Tons of updates at end of post. This is it ladies and gentleman, the moment you have been all waiting for, cancel your pre-orders and start your engines – the PSJailbreak open source, free scene solution is out – PSGroove!
Now we can make our OWN PSJailbreak clone, and I am glad to say at a very cheap price 
. All you need is either a Teensy++ USB Development Board or AT90USBKEY, and follow
If you plan on ordering a Teensy++ know that it has shortages and even more quite soon:
Update, Tuesday, Aug 31, 5:41 PM: We have received a higher than usual volume of orders for this item, and we’re working to ship orders as quickly as possible. Current wait time is approximately 2 days. As of Tuesday 5:41PM these boards ARE IN STOCK. We have enough inventory to fill all pending orders! If we do run out due to high demand, we expect to have more available in approximately 2 weeks, and we will fill any backorders in the order they were received. If you want one of these boards, your best bet is to place an order now. Please understand PJRC is a small company and we are currently running about 2 days to fill orders, though we’re hoping to fully catch up soon!
From the readme of PSGroove:
This is the PSGroove, an open-source reimplementation of the psjailbreak exploit for AT90USB and related microcontrollers.
It should work on:
* AT90USB162
* AT90USB646
* AT90USB647
* AT90USB1286
* AT90USB1287
* ATMEGA32U4… and maybe more.
This software is not intended to enable piracy, and such features have been disabled. This software is intended to allow the execution of unsigned third-party apps and games on the PS3.
PSGroove Git Repository can be found here (contains all the files you need and everything to get started + download):

11:45 PM
Now, do we need to jTag it or does the Teeny board have an onboard programmer flash?
LOL Thank god I have Linux, just open terminal and Git it
08-31-2010
11:47 PM
Thanks out to anyone who contributed to the project. Hopefully tomorrow my stuff will be in the mailbox and I can try this out :D
************* [ - Post Merged - ] *************
If you ordered a Teeny or the Atmel Dev Board then it should be programmable via usb.
08-31-2010
11:48 PM
All you need is to connect to PC through USB to program it.
08-31-2010
11:50 PM
Ah damn, I haven't ordered it yet...
08-31-2010
11:53 PM
Good the code has finally been released maybe we can start working on porting this to devices such as smartphone apps or the psp.
08-31-2010
11:57 PM
I think I would want to port it to Arduino... I got a Arduino
I know C++, so I must be good to go
09-01-2010
12:05 AM
Port it david.
Anyway **** the isos and the backups and the loaders and everything! Pure homebrew that is what we want...
09-01-2010
12:12 AM
Even if I do port it, and get it to work... How would I make homebrew? LOL All i got is the incomplete leaked SDK from like 2008 and the newer leaked documents... So how would I package the SELF files to PKG and stuff? Or even compile to ELF?
I don't have much time to port it, only may be during the weekends, being a full time student sucks LOL
09-01-2010
12:12 AM
Just ordered my teensy. Hopefully this is really idiot proof cause I dont know what im doing for the most part.
09-01-2010
12:18 AM
its really easy trust me, anyway, david, well i am full time student too, and i am on vacations XD, anyway you don't have the sdk no prblem people will release homebrew no need for you to make it yourself XD
09-01-2010
12:26 AM
Someone will compile it for you most likely, then all you need to do is flash your board with the ihex file
09-01-2010
12:35 AM
k doesnt sound to tuff
09-01-2010
12:42 AM
So correct me if I'm wrong, using PSGroove we program a Teensy++ and then connect the Teensy++ via Mini-B USB to the PS3?
Sorry if this sounds way too noob a question.
Cheers
09-01-2010
12:46 AM
Just shelled out a little over $30 for mine.
09-01-2010
12:52 AM
Well I just ordered my board today, its planning on coming next week
. Two questions:
First: Is this code release missing the ability to backup games?
"This software is not intended to enable piracy, and such features have been disabled. This software is intended to allow the execution of unsigned third-party apps and games on the PS3."
WTF!!!!???!!?!???
Second: Given the information on the website, is a more ignorant person like myself able to follow without needing to have actual programming skills>
but I do know java quite well, gotta stop selling myself so short.
p.s
I WANT PIRACY!!!!! Didn't a get a fcking BlockBuster pass & 320 gig toshiba external harddrive formatted to FAT32 for nothing, those damn bastards!!

I dont think we can technically ask for Piracy to be enabled. From what I understand we just ahve to wait for someone to patch it to work but im prolly wrong
09-01-2010
01:00 AM
Here you go, the fix to enable backups is in the following download (also includes original):

01:02 AM
What do you mean?
Those Barmy Munters, I thank them for their hardwork, but fck why disable the feature that makes psjailbreak well JAILBREAK. I paid 32.16 for the motherboard, Hopefully it doesn't go to waste.
Someone Help me Understand This.
Why do all their files on the website say not found? 404 error. Can some greedy person reupload those files to Rapidshare, FREE POINTS!!
09-01-2010
01:02 AM
damn! fixed already. that was fast! thanks to mathieu and his team for sharing their work and thanks to the person that fixed it to run backups.

Good work to all those involved!!!!
09-01-2010
01:10 AM
question if flash this on a teensy and then use the orginal backup program from PSjail break will my ps3 b band or my psn account? could I just make say a 2 or 3 psn account for backups and homebrew and keep my original psn accout safe from sony detection?
09-01-2010
01:11 AM
lol 'Hacker'
You mean script kiddie. xD
09-01-2010
01:19 AM
Is the id stored in the ps3 or HD? Can i swap my drive and just have a drive just to play backups?
09-01-2010
01:31 AM
well done guys A+ lets blow this ps3 wide open :aetsch:
09-01-2010
01:36 AM
UPDATE 3:
Here is the compiled version of PSGroove with Backup patch, all you need to do is FLASH and go- it should work on ALL boards (untested, but should work):
[Download PSGroove w/Backup patch COMPILED and all board support]
My board is on its way but would appreicate if someone who already has a board to confirm it working.

Where i can buy AT90USBKEY in uk ???
09-01-2010
01:40 AM
second link dont work
I think all of us still need some NOOB TUTORIAL, I even don't know what software us to put and make this on USB stick
09-01-2010
01:40 AM
=O first thing I forgot that I already have an account here (what a noob), second this is great news =)... third Pirate you're updating fast! third update!
09-01-2010
01:46 AM
UPDATE 4:
Everyone hold on before you buy your boards, it seems that the code can be ported to the PSP and TI-84 Plus Calculator
09-01-2010
01:47 AM
@Pirate
Sorry to be a noob but how do I program the .hex file to my AT90USBKEY? Drag and drop? Or is there a program that transfers it?
09-01-2010
01:48 AM
Complete noob here.
Ive compiled the file but how do I flash it?
I have WinAVR if that helps.
Also which usb board do you recommend?

Would it be possible to run this on an Arduino?
09-01-2010
01:53 AM
i have a question since this is becoming a reality. if i use two different internal hard drives, one for back-ups and one for online gaming, but install the hack on only one and not the other. would psn still detect the program installed on the other hard drive?
09-01-2010
01:54 AM
Someone can patch that code to enable paying backups from BR+R or DVD+/-R?
09-01-2010
01:56 AM
Does the update 3 mean that you can use any USB just by flashing it or something?
09-01-2010
01:58 AM
i know this is unrelated but just want to say that justice was served today in the form of the psjailbreak team was ripped off instead of them ripping everyone else off. charging $125 or more for their device. that is what they get for overcharging everyone. LMAO!!
09-01-2010
01:59 AM
:D And I just found my old Ti-84 Plus *happy*
09-01-2010
01:59 AM
looks like lv1_panic(1) is gone from the code, when the USB is being removed. Which is a big improvement. From now on you can use the dongle to exploit multiple consoles.
Speaking of changes, bd emu was also removed, no piracy for you people :aetsch:
09-01-2010
01:59 AM
If this works for the ti 84 then technically it should work for the ti 89 right? please tell me it does thats all i got lol
09-01-2010
02:01 AM
Disane it was patched! :aetsch:
LOL!!
09-01-2010
02:01 AM
I hope the hackers concentrate ob getting this to run from PSP, atleast improved sales of PSP units. Sony lost the cat and mouse battle with the PSP will the PS3 be the same? If I had one drive for backups and another for originals would I be detected? It'd be cool if someone could explain in laymon terms how this thing actually works, where it came from (Sony dev tool) etc.
09-01-2010
02:03 AM
waiting for the psp version
09-01-2010
02:03 AM
OMG!! I didn't think it would be cracked THIS fast!! I have got to talk to my brother ASAP before he places an order on that expensive PS3Jailbreak!! Wow, this seemed faster than the iPhone 4 jailbreak! Love the work hackers are doing these days! Thanks *SO MUCH* for the pre-compiled code, i have NO idea how to compile, i've never done it, and I know I would screw it up unless i have a video tutorial on it....I dont' even have the board yet, but I did download the code and the software before it got pulled for some reason, especially after seeing someone was seeing 404 errors and stuff, hell, I don't even have a PlayStation 3 yet!! LOL
09-01-2010
02:11 AM
Any estimates on getting this ported to the PSP?
Shouldnt be long now that all the code's been released.

PS Groove - Atmel USB Controllers Programming How To:
Yes thats it....i wrote a quick PS Groove Tutorial.
First of all go to http://github.com/psgroove/psgroove and download the PS Groove HEX file psgroove.hex
And of course you need one of these Atmel USB Controllers:
* AT90USB162
* AT90USB646
* AT90USB647
* AT90USB1286
* AT90USB1287
* ATMEGA32U4
Now let's start:
Device Firmware Upgrade
The first thing to do after you recived your AtMel USB Controller is to load the HEX file into the on-chip flash memory
of the microcontroller. The "Flip" Software is the tool used to upgrade the firmware (available freely from the USB CD-ROM
or Atmel Website).
The following steps should be completed to allow the device starting DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade) mode and load the HEX file:
1. Install Flip software (Flip Version 3.0 or above is required).
2. Push the RST (Reset) button.
3. Connect the board to the PC using the USB Cable (Standard Ato Mini B)
4. Push the HWB (Hardware Bootloader) button.
5. Release the RST button.
6. Release the HWB button.
7. If your hardware conditions explained above are correct,a new deice detection wizard will be displayed if you are using Flip
for the first time. Please follow the instructions (the INF file is located in the USB subdirectory from Flip installation:
"install path:\ATMEL\FLIP\FLIPx.x.x\usb")
Now on your PC, the New Device Detection Wizard will open.
Select "Install from a specific location (Advanced)" and click on Next>
Select "Search for the best drivers in this locations." and click on "Include this location in the search:". Now Browse to the path C:\Program Files\ATMEL\FLIP 2.4.2\usb and click on Next>
Now check your Device Manager. There must be a new icon with the description AT90USBxxx (where xxx is the number of your USB Controller). If it's not start the procedure again.
Your Device is now in DFU Mode. Launch the programm Flip to proceed with the flashing process.
Click the chip-icon in the upper left corner and select your device from the up-poping list.
Now click on the USB-Cable icon in the upper left corner to select the communication mode. Select "USB". In the up-poping window click on "Open" to open the communication port.
Now click on "File" "Load HEX File..." and browse to your ready psgroove.hex file.
Now Load the HEX File (in the Operations Flow Tab Check Erase,Program and Vertify,then Push Run button) A window will pop-up that shows the processes.
After the processes are done click on the "Start Application" button in the right down corner.
The AT90USB bootloader will detach and jump into the user application when "Start Application" button is pressed.
CONGRATS,YOUR HOMEMADE PS JAILBREAK (WITHOUT BACKUP MANAGER SUPPORT IS NOW READY TO RUN!)
PS: I wrote this tutorial by myself with a lot of research on the Atmel user guides. Everyone who will use this tutorial on several pages please give credit to me as i wrote it by myself.
I didn't test anything of what i wrote but by the isntruction manual from the manufacture it seems realy easy to me to flash the psgroove HEX file to the USB controller.
Pic's will be added soon. I ordered a AT90USB KEY as well and I will release some review Vids and tutorials ASAP.
I know that this Tutorial needs a lot of editing,if someone knows some more details I would apreciate to add them as well.
09-01-2010
02:20 AM
nice and quick easy tutorial
09-01-2010
02:22 AM
Thanks grecomafioso for this tutorial! But, that is alot of steps to go thru, they have uploaded pre-programmed WITH BACK-UP MANAGER hex files for download now! Plus, using the Teensy board, it works with Windows XP/Vista/7, Linux AND Mac!
....I am a Mac user but I have a Windows XP PC available, i just prefer to use what I already use, plus my Mac is a laptop and I can program these at my brothers house when i inform him of this....but if they do release this for PSP and/or TI-84 (wow, those expensive calculators will be put to use other than playing Tetris) then that will be great as well...I am sure the PSP version will end up requiring you to use a Memory Stick exclusively for that, but that's okay, i have like 3 of them including the standard 32MB card that the PSP came with...I know the Hex file isn't that much considering it only uses 19% of the Teensy board according to the Teensy programmer app. Yea, i downloaded everything already, I just gotta get the board.....and a PS3....
09-01-2010
02:24 AM
i have a old blackkat usb programmer can i put the software on that ? as sure its the same chip ?
09-01-2010
02:24 AM
what operating systems will this work for? anyproblems with win7?
09-01-2010
02:25 AM
By the way, does it matter if its Teensy 2.0 or Teensy++ 2.0...I would probably be better off buying the ++ model anyway for future updates, but for $6 less, the Teensy 2.0 would be better....of course, MUCH better than that $160 price anyway...I would love to see someone who has actually tested this, can't wait for videos showing this works! hopefully whoever figured this out will upload a video of it working
09-01-2010
02:26 AM
If this works for the ti 84 then technically it should work for the ti 89 right? please tell me it does thats all i got? anyone?
09-01-2010
02:31 AM
just use google to look up if the 89 can run the 84 apps, i bet it could
09-01-2010
02:33 AM
Is anyone out there working to see if this will work using the PSP? If so, please share. Would like to get this project started ASAP!!!! Too Excited! Thank you! Also, I am using a MAC as well, so if there is anyone out there that would like to create a tutorial on how this will work using a PSP and a MAC, would greatly appreciate it. I am a super NOOB!
09-01-2010
02:35 AM
09-01-2010
02:35 AM
@delaros3 I am a mac user as well, and even if its a Windows only program, I think it would be worth it to use either Parallels for Intel macs or VMWare for PPC Macs....it will be damn well worth it to install Windows on a Mac just for that one use...but you know ALOT of PSP apps are Windows based, i did get lucky and get one i really needed for Mac....but just cross your fingers and might as well get Parallels or VMWare ready...
09-01-2010
02:36 AM
Any chance for wince gps device??
09-01-2010
02:37 AM
What will be the impact using it?
Do we have to expect beeing locked out from PSN retrieving these errors or even do we need to expect our PS3 to be destroyed?
What happens if I use the PS Groove only without i-net connection and then unplug it any time I need to do anything online? Would Sony be able to track such things?
09-01-2010
02:37 AM
i have Microchip USB package that can be flasched with picflash also possible?
In regards..
09-01-2010
02:39 AM
@SubZero15 it's been said that the PSJailbreak IS detectable, so I would say this is as well...it seems to be using the same software, just a home-brew version of it....the Disc ID that Backup-Manager gives isn't the actual disk ID of the game used, thus causing Sony to flag you and catch you....for the time being, until Backup Manager is updated for the Disc ID functionality, I would keep offline with any games used
09-01-2010
02:42 AM
If thats true then how. I'm ready for this ether way I have 2 PSP's lying around doing nothing. An I'm pretty shure my sister has my TI-85 some where.
09-01-2010
02:44 AM
OMG I love this great but please who have a tutorial for how transfer the .hex file onto a PSP please
??
09-01-2010
02:46 AM
ok im really confused right now.
will this let me play games that i dump onto a hard drive?
09-01-2010
02:47 AM
As of now you cant use the .hex file on a psp. Maybe, hopefully, in the near future a something.eboot will be written along with a custom .prx driver. In other words, psp homebrew enabling this. You still need your psp hacked/running custom firmware.
09-01-2010
02:47 AM
@yass934; it hasn't been ported to PSP YET....its still in the process or possibility....wait and we shall see, it will probably be the next UPDATE on here
09-01-2010
02:48 AM
Say I use a backup of bioshock play it off hdd and then exit unplug the jailbreak then reset my ps3. would sony still be able to track that I had previosly played a back up?
09-01-2010
02:49 AM
it just occurred to me, we have no video of this working, how can we be sure it works?? I mean, I am not doubting the uploader, but i would like to see video of this....i love watching videos of hacks and stuff....
09-01-2010
02:50 AM
they ($ony) can possibly trace the installed backup manager software...
No videos yet, cause you need specific hardware to flash this on before using it.
Not a lot of people where prepared for this
09-01-2010
02:52 AM
@chidesd; remain offline and do not connect to the internet, seriously doubt Sony can detect what has been played previously....i am not 100% on this though..I mean, Microsoft LIVE only banned people when they detected it from online use
09-01-2010
02:55 AM
:O. how awesome is this. I have a TI-84 Plus from a Math class I didn't do so good in XD.
09-01-2010

@dvdxploitror
thanks for the input will stay offline or ill get a 2nd ps3 for homebrew NS backups idk which
09-01-2010
03:00 AM
Just look at my nickname
Great work guys!!!
09-01-2010
03:00 AM
@chidesd I've read they are updating the Backup Manger program (already) for some tweaks, so they may be fixing the Disk ID thing, the Nintendo Wii disk IDs are properly working on copies (even though you can change them using software) so I am sure its only a matter of time (short time at the rate this is going) before they fix the Disk ID issue
09-01-2010
03:01 AM
I'm stuck at work watching this unfold on my phone. Hopefully the download links still work tonight. If not, one of you guys please start a torrent.
Now to see where I can buy a Teensy ++ in Perth. Unless there is a Blackberry version by the time I get home. :D
Nice work! And thanks for SHARING!
09-01-2010
03:02 AM
Just messing with you FireBird. But I might have to dust out the old CFW on there an Flash on a New one (Plus I cant even remember what CFW is on them). I'll do it in the morning.
But ether way when an if the PSP an TI-84 methods come out I'll be shure to test um both out an post my findings here.
09-01-2010
03:04 AM
Do we need to buy something?
09-01-2010
03:05 AM
A Windows Mobile version is nice too :D
09-01-2010
03:06 AM
I too will be sharing findings on the psp version if it ever comes along or I can get it ported.
09-01-2010
03:06 AM
@lernatix
Wouldnt worry the files tiny less then 1mb so it shouldnt be hard to find even if for some reason the links go down someone will upload it to another site.

09-01-2010
03:10 AM
Hi All,
hopefully sony won't code something in the ps3 blocking the use of the onboard chip from they key..
so i ordered my a90usbkey
Question.. i did read somewhere that iso loading was possible? and yes it's very usefull to know if you play backups offline then reset your ps3 then go online and play an original game.. what would that do?
09-01-2010
03:10 AM
ok im really a noob at this and i have no idea what is going on
does this allow me to play backuped games or not?
09-01-2010
03:13 AM
... yes, the patched version does, just like the original psjb except that you can remove the chip once its started and the ps3 wont crash from kernel panic. You can play backups with the manager.pkg once you install it.
09-01-2010
03:13 AM
OKAY ALL NOOBS READ UP!
1. This will allow backup loading
2. There ISN'T a PSP version YET!
3. Just wait and the scene will unfold
4. Dont ask for a tutorial, 'cuz unless you have one of those USB programmers then there's no point in asking.
All of you out there need to take a chill pill
09-01-2010
03:15 AM
If you installl the manager.pkg will it remain on your ps3 ?
I can think a this for a reason you can never go online anymore if sony writes something to detect it...
09-01-2010
03:16 AM
actually,... you dont need a programmer. You just need the chip. These boards are all programmable / flashable through usb
09-01-2010
03:16 AM
It will, but it wont run without the PSJB
09-01-2010
03:19 AM
Hmmm maybe they need to make it bootoff a second normal usb drive so you don't have to install it locally on the ps3
09-01-2010
03:22 AM
A big thank you and much respect to people who have finally made this possible! I have been reading everyday following the updates since psjailbreak was first announced but havn't noticed anything said about 'otheros'. i have my 'online' ps3 that i have borrowed but i also still have my 60gb that has been sat gathering dust since the april 1st update. I know it will have to be updated to current fw for the jailbreak to work but in doing so i lose my 'otheros'. With the jailbreak enabling homebrew and such does mean installation of 'otheros' is an option available once again or will we have to wait for a cfw to be released? Sorry for asking but its been sat there since april looking all sorry for itself just waiting for the right time to make a comeback? is this the right time or should i still hold off
Thanks guys and gals!
09-01-2010
03:24 AM
The psjailbreak can't be detected ! Only the Backup Manager can when you are online but it is easy to change the Backup Manager ID. I'll try it and if it works, i'll add links...
09-01-2010
03:26 AM
at this point all is very new so at your own risk... nobody can promise this will keep working as sony is already working hard to block it

I don't normally comment on things like this, I usually keep quiet and watch... but, Congratulations to all involved, Geohotz for kicking the initial exploits off, PSJailbreak for initially releasing the hardware exploit, and Mathieulh (& team) for continuing development. I to am very interested in the otherOS and custom firmwares, as soon as I have a working dongle I'd like to look into custom firmwares for otherOs.
I've ordered a teensy ++ board and now waiting for delivery. One aspect which has caught my eye is the port to PSP, how exactly is this done? I presume it will be an application you install on the PSP, when will this be released? I would like to start playing asap.

You have to install the backup manager onto the PS3. That means that its ID will be stored. I think.....

03:41 AM
Better to stay offline then or to wait for a release that is safe..
for my own knowledge it's all coded in c++ so meaning emulators can be easly ported?

And also...its just a matter of time (hours maybe?) to see the first ports of the exploit on different devices like:

has anybody heard any info on whether any devs are actively working on porting to psp? i would get a teensy board but shipping + price is the price of a psjb for overnight delivery (no sellers in Australia
) and standard delivery is up to 3 weeks in which time psp port could well be out. Also Aus is sold out of at90usb boards. If anybody knows anywhere in Aus plz post the links
09-01-2010

i think there are peeps already working on a psp port but not to sure

Mathieulh on Twitter:
@MuscleNerd I want it done on psp but I am too lazy to code the driver xD
@Mathieulh is it possible to port psgroove to a android phone like nexus one or desire ?
@hhreff In theory yes, again I am not the one coding the driver xD
@mathieulh What are the chances of getting console banned for running homebrew?
@tonedeafcat a lot, don't go online.
Twitter posts from MuscleNerd:
@Uhrzeiger if someone wants to port (or help port) it, it would work from all JB iPhones/iPods/iPads
09-01-2010
04:08 AM
Hopefully they will find a way to run all of usb stick to play offline like emulators then remove the stick go online with no problems of bans
09-01-2010
05:26 PM
I'm still waiting for first CFW, it will be the surest way to avoid ban. It will be also the most integreting method, like UMD emulator in PSP.
09-01-2010

Well, some 2 and a half years after I joined the Haxnetwork and its happened. Hopefully this'll give me interest in the PS3 again. Well done and kudos to all involved.

Huge Thanks to mathieulh and all the others who helped with this.
i ordered a teensy++ last night. should have it late next week (i hope).
in the meantime ill be looking forward to the psp method.

The sheer irony of hacking your PS3 by using your hacked PSP. And still I'd really hate to see piracy on the PS3 but thats something up to the user. And yes even tho I dislike piracy I estimate the chance of me downloading a game still up there... The thing that makes me use it for Hb only is the fact of getting banned, really hate that to happen to me.
Curious how Sony is reacting tho, the war has just began.
09-01-2010
06:58 PM
oke just want to clear things up a bit. The psp version is currently in development by eavpsp his twitter and his blog
A mobile version for the N900 is in development by kakaroto his blog
I don't know about more mobile versions like for android devices but you can count on it that they will be developed soon.

UPDATE 5:
Various ports of PSP/iPhone/Android/Calculators are being worked upon, no time on when they will be ready. According to Mathieulh, a PSP port is possible. Boards are sold out almost everywhere, please post here where you find some in stock.

@MonkeyFeces
You seem like you know what your doing...go for it. The worst that'll happen is it wont work..but im not saying it wont cause it should. And have you tried opening up the ps3 and cleaning the lens with an ear swab(they say its not recommended but I usually use a little tiny bit of rub alcohol, just enough to get the swab damp, and it does the trick)
09-01-2010
11:43 PM
This whole thing amazes me. The fact that the modding community has tried and failed for 4 years (i think), and all of a sudden, this usb hack comes out of nowhere and sparks this fire of porting it to different devices. I just hope that Sony doesn't update the firmware any time soon, causing this hack to stop working. I still have nightmares of the whole Geohot era.
09-01-2010

I just programmed the Teensy 2.0 code from the PS3HAX pack .zip file, and it worked -*perfectly*- !!! I was having trouble getting the code to compile properly, but once I had a .hex to work with, it was almost too easy.
One piece of advice I will give is to remove all other USB devices. The first boot I had a controller plugged in, and it didn't work. I flipped the power switch, removed all other USB devices, put the teensy in the left-most USB slot, flipped the power switch, pressed the power button followed immediately by eject. When the light lit up, it was done.
When the hack runs properly, you will see two new options on the "Game" menu. One of them lets you install a package. Plug a USB flash drive in with the manager.pkg file on it, select the install package menu item, select manager.pkg, and it only takes a couple seconds to install.
The backup manager stays in the menu, even if you don't boot with the teensy. If you didn't boot with the teensy, it gives a "startup" error and won't run. If you do boot with the teensy, it runs perfectly.
THANKS MUCHO!!!!

Got my e-mail last night. Woot!
Now the mad 2-3week wait for shipping.
I really hope somone develops PSGroove linux while I wait. :D
I might be one of the few people who is more interested in sticking the middle finger up at $ony than playing backups. I feel that the otherOS debacle has been vindicated and am very happy right now!

Copied from front page
"All you need is either a Teensy++ USB Development Board or AT90USBKEY"
theres also a method in development to use a Ipod, psp, and a specific type of calculator. Just search Teensy on google and u will find www.pjrc.com/teensy
and purchase it but dont expect to get it for a few weeks. god people are lazy

I want the psp version, i need to use it again for something :P, analog stick is broken so using this for that would be ok. I did order the psjailbreak, and im going to keep the order and get it because I don't mind paying for a service I want, yeah its a bit much, but the only reason they had it tah high is becasue this would happen. laffer curve comments here we come... :P

lol lol really? :P no ****
well if i get my board im going to test it once but i won't install the backup manager until they can say it is safe
but would it not be secure to make another offline account on your ps3 and then install the software on the account and use another account to play online? or can sony check the whole file system of the ps3 in all accounts?

In order to keep selling their product, PSJailbreak is saying that the final retail version:
- is NTFS compatible (files over 4GB)
- comes with Backup Manager 1.1 ("more complete" version)
- will work with all past & present firmwares
- will work with PS1/PS2 games
- automatically updatable via your PC
- enables .mkv playback and homebrew lanching (like the XMBC)
- will allow you to play online forever
Wait & See.

@TheMartian Im not seeing that on the psjailbreak site, where did you hear that from?
09-02-2010
04:46 AM
I heard about the "new features" as well but im not sure they are for real.
.
They are watching all this happen and trying to make the high price look worth it, these features are stated as "comming" so the current psjailbreak will be as it always was. Also if these features do get released for the psjb they will most likely be incorporated in the backup manager not the jailbreak itself, which we can run with our groovy versions
The one question i have is i have read the teensy once flashed with groove cant be seen by pc, if so how do we update it later on?
09-02-2010
05:03 AM
Ithink all u will have 2 do is plug the teensy into ur pc and use the teensy program to erase then reflash the updated hex onto the teensy. but i might b wrong

09-02-2010
09:33 AM
I am also on 3.15 like you the problem with that is from what I have read is the the backup manger 1.0 only works with FW 3.41. But I just read this morning that backup manger 1.1 will work with all firmware whens it is released. Since I am waiting for my Teensy 2.0 ++ to be shipped to me me hopefully by then the BM 1.1 should be out.
09-02-2010
09:41 AM
Thanks dentu you gave me great news, anyway i was about to post that it would only work with 3.41, but i thought this was a dongle issue not a backup manager issue.
I thought the exploit didn't work on older firmwares, not the backup manager itself, can you give me the link on where you read that??

question....I haven't seen this posted anywhere yet and I'm just curious if ISO images are able to be played via the BD Emulator, or are the backups only playable by dumping the individual files off of the disc? Second question, is it possible to put rip the game BD from a PC to an external drive and then use it? I understand the 4GB FS limit with FAT32, and I know NTFS support is in the works, but I know some people don't want to wear the laser out on their PS3. Many thanks.
09-02-2010
12:24 PM
i know the psp port is in the works, but due to the fact that you need to have cfw does this mean using a pspgo to port this isnt going to be possible anytime soon?

12:30 PM
As people say: "Grasp all. Lose all!"
09-02-2010
12:37 PM
No its not possible to rip the game put it in external hdd, the game ripping process requires that the encryption layer can be decrypted or something similar which the backup manager does on the fly, but dumping using a pc won't.
09-02-2010
12:53 PM
Taul, way to early for an answer to that question. If some dev has a Blackberry and wants to test with it, Im sure its already happening.

Following up on some late news, two different people are "tweeting" they are working on a version of the Open-Source PSGroove code that will run on devices that use the Android O.S.
Please NOTE this is an Work-In-Progress project!
That means it is NOT completed but it is being worked on hard by these two people.
Here is what the first person has to say so far regarding their port'ing efforts:

I'm very close to producing a fully working bug free app for this.

type "make clean"
type "make"
afterwards I should have the hex-file
but for some reason that is not working I know I am doing something wrong can someone plz help I know that I can just get the hex files and be done with it but I would like to learn how to compile it from scratch can someone plz post a quick tut thanks

I thought It was posted in the faq you need 3.41?
09-02-2010
02:07 PM
Well i guess the psjailbreak team is apparently laying.
They say we will release manager1.1pkg that will work on any version of the ps3, well it cant cause the device isn't recognized by any firmware version and only works on 3.41.

it seems to me, though im not trained, is that we can create software to emulate one of the usb chip controller and take over a usb port, then add the software to it and push that too the ps3.
Now, I don't know the first thing about programming, so I won't be able to do it anytime soon. But I feel this would be something that can be done.

no, the simple usb sticks do not have a controller to operate the mod/hack the psp has the ability to have the usb controlled. What i am talking about is emulating the controller so it can do the mod/hack

It has been confirmed that the ATAVRXPLAIN board works you can get them here hurry before they run out
http://search.digikey.com/scripts/Dk...client_id=5042
It has been confirmed buy the PSGroove website here
http://ps3wiki.lan.st/index.php/PSGroove
here is the code needed for complieing
ATAVRXPLAIN:
MCU = at90usb1287
BOARD = XPLAIN
F_CLOCK = 8000000

Do we need to have the dongle plugged in whenever we want to run a backup? Or just for the install of package manager? Because I want to use the microcontroller for other things too. :P

when you jailbreak your ps3 you should have the ability to re-install this file and have that capability back. however comma i would back up anything that you have on your linux partition of ur ps3 and be prepaired to re-install it. I myself have 3.15 fw.
**Disclaimer**
I have not yet jailbroken my ps3, but I do intend to follow the steps I mentioned above.

Would it be possible to make an app for a PC to run and have a USB cable connected from the PC to the PS3? I think that would be a smarter way to go about it since 98% of every one I know has either a pc or a laptop. Only a small percentage have an iphone/android/psp/n90/usb devboard. not to mention a usb to usb cable is much cheaper then all of the above.

No its not possible.

Very excited to get this up and running

Any plans to add in the ability to use the backup utility feature for PS2 and PSX games for those of us with fully backwards compatible models? How about DVDs and Blu-Rays? Could you also re-implement software PS2 emulation with this? Any plans to re-enable Other OS, or does it do this already?
Can anyone point me to good sources of information on how I can compile C or C++ code to the proper format to run on the PS3? I am aware it uses a PPC processor, but how do you compile your application into a PKG archive to install on the PS3? I am a computer programming hobbyist that would like to contribute to the ongoing efforts if possible!

Of course it is. mathiuelh has reported that someone is trying to install virus on your computer, by faking psgroove installs and "new solutions" all fakes.
and by the way the video is the blackcat, lolol blackcat is supose to work.

Am I right in thinking the USB device would have to be plugged in and the button sequence done every time you wanted to use the ps3? Any backups or homebrew programs wouldn't work once installed without the usb psgroove being attached?
09-05-2010
08:52 AM
yes you are right if you want to play homebrew you will have to plug in your jailbreak solution, and boot the on button followed by the eject button.

can someone give me some links where to buy one of those boards ?

you should have used the search feature.
in the future do your search before asking, http://www.ps3hax.net/showthread.php...ighlight=board here you go,they are all sold out so that you know.

No, it will stay on the hdd as long as you want but if you try to boot it with no psgroove/psjailbreak it won't work, it will only work with the jailbreak inside and a fresh boot, and then you can remove it again.

Works like an absolute charm with the AT90USBKEY1287!!
Just picked mine up from the Sydney quantronics store.
Little on the expensive side, but these guys understand the concept of supply and demand!

Is there a Tutorial for porting to TI-84? Can this be done for the TI-83 as well? I know you can buy a TI usb connectivity kit for it. Thanks in advance.

Well there is no better time than now to by a ps3. and don't come to me with all that bull**** that they rent you games, we know what you are going to do.
09-08-2010
11:21 PM
"Well there is no better time than now to by a P$3 ."
Well I would have to agree, if you want to able to Jail Break you system, cause with the new Firmware going live it's only a matter of time before the retail store will these systems in stock and you will be forced to have the new update. so you can "RENT" .......cough cough.
Plus I have been reading up on the PSgroove and somewhere I saw online that a $ony exec was saying that they will be shipping a version of the P$3 that will limit Harddrive access, if that is the case these systems are limited.....
09-08-2010
11:32 PM
Am I the only one here that thinks a PS3 is a waste of money now?
Honestly, your money would be better spent on PC parts.
Unless there are several exclusive games you really want of course.
09-09-2010
11:02 AM
The state of the ps3 now is a waste indeed, my ps3 has linux and backwards compatibility by hardware, that is the real ps3, anyway we might get those features now, with the jailbreak.

Hi all,
I only skimmed all the posts, so I'm sorry if this has already been discussed.
I have not jailbroken my PS3 yet because I was waiting to see how things went and what hardware could be used. This is just to answer a couple questions that I saw here.
A friend of mine HAS gotten the psgroove to work with a TI-84, and since it has a dual purpose and used ones are about the same price, that'll probably be the method I choose - also I downloaded the TI-84 port just in case
Additionally, for those that don't want to give up Linux, there is now a way to run Linuz on 3.41 w/o OtherOS (as of yesterday, to my knowledge). You will of course loose backwards compatibility with PS2 games, if you had it begin with, but I just saw a PS2 on ebay, with shipping for $29, and the mod for that is not very difficult (I'm a noob and managed to get it done).
Finally, there are ways to avoid forced updates to play new games and log on to PSN (though I don't recommend it) - this includes Medal of Honor; it's rough, but I'm sure the process will get smoothed out and the hacks will get better.
It has also come to my attention that you can use a dualshock 3 controller to get this done as well, though I don't personally know anyone that has tried it. But I found one on craigslist for $10 that a couple of the sticks do't work, but you don't really need that if you're just using it for psgroove.
Hope that helps you guys out.
Later.
************* [ - Post Merged - ] *************
I do have a question though: In the past, with the correct hardware/software, you could downgrade the firmware to a certain extent to regain backwards compatibility if you upgraded on accident. I purchased the necessary equipment to try it out, but it's still sitting in t's original shipping box, unopened, lol. So has anyone tried to do this before? I've seen craigslist ads where folks are offering this as a service for like $60 (which is why I bought the equipment), so I assume it works. So can you purchase a new model with 3.5 on it and downgrade it, or is it like the 360 where physical fuses are burned so that you can't downgrade?
Also, anyone know if you can delete the psgroove software and format and reflash the firmware so there are no traces left behind (for instance you decide you want to sell the PS3 to someone and not screw them over), or does that info get permanently burned onto a hardware chip somewhere?
Thanks!
