I don't actually care if he releases it as if it can be done then someone will do it and release it.

What I do care about is people who get a buzz out of "I can do this and I'm not going to tell you". If that is insulting him, then so be it, I still stand by my opinion and accept any bollocking the Mods give me, and as we have recently been warned, unless it is proven then do not post it. This thread exists because it is Mathieulh and nothing else.

If it were an unknown entity that had said all this then they would be getting told to shut up until they prove it with a step by step video.

Even if it is genuine, and he is worrying about exposure to Sony, then it is a simple thing to release it anonymously. If he wants the praise (rightful) and kudos of being the originator, then he can quite easily keep an offline log of what he did and the ID he used to release it if after release Sony do nothing about it.

I have respect for his work, but no respect for the playground games he plays.

Oh one last thing, if it IS(?) a no no by Sony and people now go ahead and use his hints to do it, then just by releasing the video he is guilty in any(?) court of law for making it public, but as I said in a previous post, from what I understand it uses nothing that is not native to a PS3 running OFW.

Just another step in the right direction. And no flamming please. Mathieu is just a member on our forums and we don't flame our members over here at this site.

first of all, saying something can be done and showing it, but not showing how you did it, can't make you guilty by any means..

second, using the buttonkeys to activate the menu's is native through OFW, but setting the QA flag/token isn't...

Yes it can, and has been used before in a court of law, but I did put the ? there as I do not know how courts work world wide

How is the QA flag used then? (genuine question, as I will gladly admit being a pillock lol)

...maybe Mat is a SAW movie fan? He gives us some hints to reach the goal...

I personally believe Math, as he hasn't shown anything in the past that was fake. People who ***** at M should just be banned from these forums as they have nothing to add, and 99% of those only want the CFW's for playing illegal games, and aren't interested in homebrew anyway.. One of the reason's you won't see much actual homebrew is because the uncertainty your homebrew will be playable for a long time, and the cost of having a second PS3 just for homebrew is also too high. Also the current opensource SDK (PSlight) is also still far from finished (Keep up the great work on that boys & girls on the PSLight developmentteam), and coding for the PS3 still isn't easy.. (also the lack of a real Windows based developmentsetup might have something to do with it, yes not everybody is up to linux and are mostly used to advanced IDE's like Visual Studio 20xx).

Wow... you are in the elite of 1% that bought a ps3 for studying and not for playing
Hypocrites should be banned.

So if this was done on a RETAIL PS3 running 3.60 how does one load grafs custom kernel with OtherOS if the PS3 is running 3.60? I am in the same boat as many of you. Updated to 3.60 and can't go back. I am sure with the knowledge/hints given most of us Linux literate members will figure it out within days and MAYBE release a CFW with the option to input the Siaxis combo to set the QA Flag :D :D : D

Counting down the seconds until I can install MutiMan!!!

Words of wisdom from ps3 dev (possibly graf or rms)

Ever since Mathieulh released his video, some people just want to QA flag their consoles. Now, let me tell you one thing, it’s so not easy.

Besides, if you want to use the QA flag, you have to have a valid QA token, and you have to be on a specific firmware range. Now, what’s so special about the token is that it’s generated in a funny way, I am not going to disclose that here. But, remember, PS3 hypervisor can also make tokens. But these tokens.. don’t do /anything/ except just unlock the QA repository node.

Besides, the fancy menu requires a very weird key combo on the Sixaxis, and it only works on retails. On debugs, it just removes all restrictions.

Remember, the QA flag in Syscon also requires a valid token. (reiterated again.)

So, in the end QA flagging = (Piracy*Warez)++;. Don’t do it.

Okay, since nothing was selected and there was no navigation in the XMB than the only buttons that could have been used in the combination were:

L1
R1
L2
R2



Start
Select

Why not just create a new anonymous user name over at ps3-whatever.com and just post ONE POST about how to do this (from an internet cafe' if you are paranoid) ? I am sure ALL credit will go to math because now we all KNOW who figured it out. I am sure the cat will be outta the bag soon enough....

Hopefully TODAY!
