• PS3 Hacks, PSGroove , 02.10.2010

    Yesterday we reported that KaKaRoTo was busy at work porting PSFreedom to FW 3.01, today he has posted an update and it is now working on PS3 FW 3.15.

    To quote:

    Philhug and I have worked together recently to make PL3 compatible with 3.15, and it is now done, working and ready for you to use. I have just pushed the latest changes to github, so just update both PSFreedom and PL3, and define FIRMWARE_3_15 in PSFreedom’s config.h and recompile. You will then be able to enjoy your unrestricted PS3 on 3.15 firmwares. Enjoy!

    [Download PSFreedom for 3.15]
    [VIA KaKaRoTo's Blog]

    Thanks to michael903 for the tip.

      Very nice i kept my playstation on 3.15 so i can still use Linux and just to make sure and sorry to be a noob and if this question has been asked before do i still need to jailbreak my ps3 with jailbreak files of 3.15 or do i reinstall this as an upgrade/reinstall firmware i am currently waiting for my tenasy board.

      U will use your teensy board and the new build of psfreedom that now supports 3.15 to jailbreak your 3.15 system.

      Be careful ordering psjailbreak and clones!!!

      This is for PSfreedom which is what we load onto things such as dev boards like the teensy or xplain, etc., or ipods, ds's, etc. PSjailbreak is updatable but most the clones are not and even if you have the original or an upgradable clone you would still need to wait for PSjailbreak or the clone manufacturer to release their own update to implement the new ability to work on other firmwares.

      I just love it, this is such excellent news as I have a fat ps3 on 3.15 with a busted blueray drive. I was lucky enough to get a new ps3 at the time so I am also fortunate enough to have a slim in 3.41.

      With two firmware versions down and another on the way (the previouslyt mentioned 3.10 in dev) I anticipate more and more versions to follow.

      A huge thanks to KaKaRo and to the others he mentioned (Klutsh and Philippe) for the great work!

      I got by at90usb162 of ebay, they have a bunch of compatible models. Goto downloads>homebrew loaders and look through the different boards that support it and do an ebay search.

      Yeah its easy to 'port' to 3.42 or 3.50 where Sony have patched the exploits.

      I get so sick of reading people post asking for 'online' whenever something is done. It totally undermines their acheivements by demanding the near on impossible. Get a clean retail if you want online.

      Thats sounds good, it is possible to port on ps3key or others?

      and the second question is. It is possible to play "new" games they need fw 3.41 ?

      its only just been reversed to work on 3.15 so give it a little time for someone to create the hex files for you.

      check this section often.

      guys anyone have ps3 fat with 3.01 or 3.15 please backup dev_flash1 files via ftp server and share them so everyone can load the firmware via JaiC_USB_FIRM_LOADERv03 so after loading the files with jaic loader we will have ps3 with 3.01 or 3.15 with otheros support

      note: dev_flash1 include no personal information
      *the files should be copied from fat ps3, because the slim version doesn't support otheros in any firmware.90% sure you can use and load the fat ps3 devh_flash1 files on slim version to have otheros support
      so please someone upload the files

      it needs compiling for each make of device. teensy, atavrxplain etc
      when somebody on 3.15 with the same device compiles it then it will most likely be released as hex.

      you could always grab the source and compile it yourself.

      ok i finally got it to work, 3.15 fw, launch 60 gb ps3 and a teensy2.0 (not the ++) the latest build worked for me. remember to turn off/unplug th eps3, then insert the usb, then plug in/switch on, then hit power/eject...

      so i got the install .pkg and /app_home/ options, i installed backup manager and open bm, tried to play games that worked with my friends 3.41 slim. and it wont work i think the latest working build doesnt have backup manager support...

      In game menu I have:
      */app_home/PS3_GAME
      *Install Package Files

      so generally it looks all right but I've just downloaded SUDOKU and SNAKE homebrew and it didn't works. I've copied AVCHD folder to root of pendrive but when trying under movies i have an error message that it cannot open movie - 80029945
      also it shows unknown usb device.

      yonasz if I get it works I will dump whatever you wants

      there is no sudoku or snake homebrew yet. you probably downloaded some psp homebrew. you need to download blackb0x ftp and put the .pkg on the root of the memory stick and it will show up in the install packages folder

      Edit: nevermind there is sudoku app but atleast make sure youre installing it right

      .pkg files go directly on the root and are installed nothing should go in AVCHD.
      I believe you are trying to run Bluray java homebrew which doesnt work anymore. Instead download blackb0x FTP get the pkg and put it on the root with no folder. After that plug it in the ps3 and click on install packages. you should the file and just press it to install.

      How to get ps3 FW 3.15 and psgroove/psfreedome to work with this:AVR Pro larger 32 version


      Made WITH A ATMEL chip! Not a pic.

      Unit has 3 leds and two switches making it the BEST fully upgradable re flash-able best design product to ensure it will be compatible with future flash files requiring these extra buttons.


      We have tested this and it works perfectly. It is very easy to program and can be updated at any time without fuss. Unlike other poorly designed AVR Kits, all the IO's are accessible, there are power and status LED's and includes a real USB male connector for easy plug and play action.

      Presenting Minimus, a high quality production grade AVR USB Development Unit that is clean in design, low in cost and readily available to resellers around the globe. There are hundreds of projects available for the AVR USB hobbyist looking for a powerful yet cost effective solution. Works with Open Source LUFA USB firmware library and Open Source LibUSB software library.

      The Minimus AVR USB is powered by an Atmel AT90USB32 that is pre-programmed with the bootloader which allows code to be programmed inside the chip without any external programmer, just download the FLIP software from Atmel's web site and load your HEX code. To enter the bootloader mode you should simply press and hold HWB button, then press and release the RST button.
