Yesterday we told you about the POC video of PS3 jailbreaking via SIXAXIS by haskuy. Today, the full tutorial has been revealed. The hack works via the 18f2550 pic. Unfortunately it is not as easy as many of you would hope, it requires soldering and some technical skills. Another issue is that the tutorial was originally written in Spanish, so the google translation is some what sketchy, if you speak Spanish we would greatly appreciate a properly translated post (and will post it here). You can find the original tutorial and release via Elotrolado.

Update: Well it seems from the post it is fair to say this is not really a PORT, its more of a way to power the PIC via Sixaxis controller, which could actually be bad for you when you don’t want the exploit activated. Also based off the posts at the source, people are saying that this  could result in electrical failure as the PIC is always activated.

Remember the iPod video port we told you about a few days ago? Well there is another out on the web, id10terror from PSX-Scene has managed to port PSGroove to the Sansa e200,c200v1 MP3 series and other versions via Rockbox. You can view the step-by-step tutorial below.

1. Download Rockbox Installer — http://www.rockbox.org/download/
2. Use installer to install at least the minimal Rockbox installation

Once Rockbox is up and running normally on your Sansa e200:

3. Extract the attached zip file (DOWNLOAD HERE)  into the root of your Sansa and let it overwrite any newer files.

4. Disconnect and restart your Sansa.

Once your Sansa is re-booted into the new Rockbox:

5. Turn off the back Power switch or Disconnect PS3.
6. Connect the Sansa via USB to your PS3. (make sure it’s the only thing connected)
7. Turn the Power switch back.
8. Press the touch sensitive Power Button and then Eject immediately after.

Notes:
- To return Sansa to normal, just run the Automatic installer and reinstall Rockbox.
- These instructions will not work on the e200 RHAPSODY version yet. *Being tested ATM*
- To access original firmware and USB functionality: Turn on Sansa while holding down the left (or back) button. Then Connect to your PC’s USB.

Yesterday we told you about Grand Theft Auto IV game modding by PS3Hax member anti087, today he has posted another tutorial outlining how to mod Fallout 3. (more…)

Got a jailbroken PS3? Want to change up the default PS3 font to something more sexy? Well Kaede from Nyleveia has figured out on just how to do that. You can view our tutorial on how to do that below:

A few days ago we told you about how to use Geohots exploit via software, today xorloser has posted up his latest tutorial teaching us how to do it via hardware.

The purpose of the hardware is to stop the PS3 from saving a change to a value that we don’t want changed. The PS3 saves this changed value by writing the value to RAM. Therefore in order to stop it from saving the changed value we need to stop this write from occurring.

He also promises some code next post to dump the hypervisor and more.

You can download the fixed version of the exploit here.

PS3 hacker xorloser has released a fix for Geohots PS3 exploit, making it friendly across different firmwares.

To quote:

As I’m sure everybody heard, the memory access exploit for the PS3 hypervisor was released recently by geohotz. I was finally able to replicate his hack so I thought I’d take the time to help out others who may also have trouble due to being linux n00bs like me If I were to post everything at once it would be too much work and I’d never get around to it, so I’ll post bits at a time to ensure I actually do post it heh. Today’s post will talk about the software side of the exploit.

Please note that the geohotz exploit software was hardcoded for the v2.42 firmware, I have made a small fix that attempts to dynamically support all firmware versions. I have only tested and used it on v3.15 however.

You can download the fixed files here.

xorloser also has posted a tutorial on how to use this exploit, which is now a bit more newb friendly (for those not experienced with linux anyways), and provides some good information/guidance to help you get started using this exploit. You can view the tutorial HERE, or via link below.

Xbox 360 owners suffer from the RRoD but PS3 has its own problems. A small percentage of PS3 owners suffer from a phenomenon called “Yellow Light of Death” or “YLoD” . A issue very similar to Xbox 360. Up till now there has not been a fix for this but Gilksy1 has found a way to fix this for PS3 owners. This method is oddly familiar to the Xbox 360 RRoD repair and requires you to open your PS3 and need a heat gun.
