They are talking about the cheat app there ^
When i say "cheat app"... change the name by "code unique", "code manager", "code freak", or whatever other names had this program and his clones

The problem they had was with the cheatlist database... seems easy to "port" to other programs, probably was the cause of why the last chealist versions was encrypted

---------------------------------------
Btw... the name of the original dongle is "P3GO":

Not "PS3GO":

^ Cheap dongle, very different

[hellsing9]

PS3GO it's the same as Amazebreak (i don't know if have the same hardware).

I found nothing...FAK!

[sandungas]

I was lurking in the official ps3usercheat forums (are online again), and i found some interesting threads about the "recover tool" for unbricking, the problems they had, and the methods they used
But i have not tested different methods, so i prefer not to add it to the wiki

Also i was lurking ingenic semiconductor support page (the manufacturers of the CPU)... and has been a bit shocking to see the amount of support they have
They have another version of the recover tool (is the only broken link of all the page... but is mirrored in other sites)
The reason why they dont want you/me to have this recover tool.... is because this CPU is used in a lot of devices, from GPS's, MP4 players, ebook readers, miniconsoles, and lot more "low cost" products, and this manufacturers dont want to see their devices hacked

Interesting fact... if you go to the P3GO dongle manufacturers page (gamebox.hk)... they sell a mini-console that can run emulators, display them in a TV @ 1280x1024 pixels, etc...
Well... this mini-console has the same CPU than P3GO dongle (and ps3usercheat)
I know it because has been hacked recently and a linux image released containing a selection of emulators running under linux
Awesome, isnt it ?... its obviously overpowered to be used in a dongle, there is no easy explain why they used it

This is the reason why ingenic semiconductors gives A LOT of support (for this manufacturers, and probably retired the recover tool because this same manufactured asked them to retire it)... they have bootloader tools with source, linux bootloader, linux kernels, and even images to boot, etc...
But there is also the same support for android

In resume... this dongles can be a "weapon" to fight other dongles



----------------------------
Randomly i found another clone to add to the list of cheat apps:
A firmware update released for "E3Card reader" dongle released as "goldenfinger"
http://www.ps3hax.net/2011/03/goldfi...3-card-reader/

The release contains the firmware update to be installed in the dongle (a potential clone of ps3usercheat firmware)... and a folder named CFD that must be placed in the root of the memory stick (a potential clone of code unique/code freak)
The file "GoldenFinger.zip" is missing, and the web down

I have the P3Go, are there more P3Go models? Or just the one that sandungas pasted an image of?

The green board i have has a "v1.2" printed in white (im not sure if there are other versions of the green board)
Later they began to use red boards... that are supposed to be "v2"
And ps3usercheat i think 90% are red boards (if not all)

The bigger difference between board versions is the NAND layout... its clear that there are at least 2 different versions of the recover tool with a different OOBSIZE in his config (OOBSIZE roughtly explained... is an area of each page of the NAND reserved for metadata)

btw... the recover tool from ingenics is a newer version, and accept commands, there is one command to retrieve info from the board (this includes NAND layout)
But the config of this tool is "generic"... it needs to be adjusted for your hardware/board... so better dont "write" with it if you are not confident with the config file

Thanks, in fact it contains an app that is loaded the same way than P3GO and ps3usercheat (from a "preinstalled" folder in dongle root)
The name of the folder "CFD"... makes me think in a clone of "CodeFreakDirectory" ?

Almost forget...

This is the link to the ingenic recover tool (is an ftp, dont abuse it)
ftp://grids.be/mirror/ftp.ingenic.cn...1.4b-tools.zip

The link to this FTP is provided by the guy that hacked the "gamebox" console (that shares the same CPU with P3Go and ps3usercheat)... the features of the console can be seen here:
http://www.gamebox.hk/Features.asp (the first product at the top)

And the hacked linux for this console that has been released recently is there:
http://www.zonadepruebas.com/modules...14630&forum=10 (is till on beta stage, and one of the last messages he reports failures in the installation on "red boards")

This problem in "red boards" probably is related with the OOBSIZE config in recover tool, same problem P3GO and ps3usercheat had with the different NAND models they used in different board (green vs red)

[haz367]

Thx for the link, info ..another great hack there..ya gotta love those guys

Accept commands? How do I enter a command? The only connector on this dongle is the memory card slot and the USB plug itself, can I use the PS3’s ethernet connector to ssh into it?
