Try Gaia Manager or something else instead?

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

I have successfully jailbroken with the psn payload and installed netflix from psn. But when i try top open the app it asks me to upgrade to 3.42 :(

This thread may help anyone trying to get netflix working

Let me know if it works.
Thanks

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Also how do we jailbreak with HEX files.
If any one know how to follow these instrucitions from here netflix should work.

http://www.ps3iso.com/ps3-tutorials/...short-how.html

Of course i do not know how to do so.... looking for some help

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

I have used Back Up Manager 2 and Open Manager.

Neither of them seem to work? Well, they both open up. But they won't spoof the games to the BDrive, nor play the game from the /*GAME*/ folder

It just gives me an error.

Any ideas?

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

i do this but result is : write error: Bad address

i renamed the file from hex to psn_payload.bin. do i have to convert it in .bin and not just rename it? if yes,how?

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

I will try and help you out here bud,

1) Place the psn_payload.bin in the "root"
2) Open up PSFreedom and use the PL3 Mode
3) Leaving PSFreedom still open, open up terminal making sure that you have "rootsh" installed

4) Type in:
sudo gainroot
ls

You should now see your psn_payloads.bin file.
If you don't you have not put it in the right place!

if you do see it write in the same terminal:

cat psn_payload.bin > /proc/psfreedom/payload


Then plug it in your PS3 and do your Jail break as normal

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

i had already followed those steps..but nothing.. how do we create psn_payload.bin from the hex file given? just by renaming it?

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Of course not.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Ok. Can you tell us or even better create a bin file from the HEX file?

Thanks

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

I don't know how to do it either.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

I don't know where everyone is getting this hex from?

I downloaded this file that was a few pages back. Works fine for me, but I can't play my backups? PSN all works though

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

http://www.ps3news.com/PS3-Hacks/gui...-ubuntu-10-10/

Since you already have the kernel module, you just have to compile the payloads. The annoying part is installing the toolchain so you can cross-compile for the PS3. It takes a while to compile the tools. Thankfully, you only have to do that part once.

After that you just update the pl3 submodule, add any patches, and recompile. Then you can copy the .bin to your N900 and be happy. :D

Edited to add: My bad, for some reason I misread HEX file as source file.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

i download a bin file for psfreedom from ps3-hacks and everything works fine with gaia!

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Yes. I got the PSN working. However since the netflix app only works with firmware 3.42 and higher, we need some modifications for the netflix app to think that a compatible firmware is present. This can only be done with somehow using the hex files.

Thanks but did not understand one bit of it. Its not about your explanations but i am doctor by profession..

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

@helphelp911
i could try it, do you have a link to the source of the payload?

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

thanks Pillum, i think the source is this http://www.ps3-hacks.com/file/171

Thanks

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

hey guys

any progress in being able to play backups and play online? the comments I'm reading doesn't show both active in same time

I've read some of you need Hermes v4b and PL3 Payload Ports with PSN Online Play & 3.50 Spoofing, so check this
http://www.ps3usbjailbreak.com/newsView.php?newsId=130
it doesn't say anything about N900 but maybe it cld be in some use for some of u

for any one who was able to do the following with N900:
1- Jailbreak and play backups games require 3.50
2- Sign in to PSN successfully

Please SHARE a tutorial on how you done it

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Atleast I can play both backups and go online at the same time. Absolutely no issue.

Though I recommed using Gaia Manager because it empties the "played games" list on the PS3 so it doesn't get sent to Sony. Useful if you happen to have.. well, not-so-legitimate backups..

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

any news on the gui version?

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

This function is not about the "backups" but the homebrew apps which also get listed in this list.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

I know I should have jailbroke my PS3. My BD Drive just died on my phat which I have updated to 3.42 so I was wondering is it possible to run homebrew/backups with a busted drive? also does anybody know about the legitimacy of this:
http://www.psdowngrade.com/

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Yes, you don't need a working drive to be able to play backups. I have copied the most often games I like on the PS3 itself, and the rest I play from a USB harddrive. Should work for you too just fine.

Yes. PSJailbreak team has released a real working PS3 downgrade tool. And yes, it does work.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Mr. MohammedAG

me and my friend both tried to use the bin file with the fix of PSN
http://alephzain.klutsh.com/default_payload_3_41.bin

our steps mainly are those below taken from dear WereCatf , but it didn't work with us:

it just jailbreaked normally but the psn is still asking for a softwareupdate.

for others it is working but I don't have a clue why it is not with us, for details:
we both have stock n900 with no modification on the power kernel and we reinstalled Psfreedom so we make sure we are following the steps from the start, and the ps3 firmware is 3.41

I'm asking from you or any 3rd party assistance in our situation, and if its in no harm, maybe an update for psfreedom UI, the goal is to as always jailbreak AND have PSN enabled.
thank you for everything you've done you and your team,
best of luck

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

With the payload attached use this steps:

Place the psnpayload.bin in the n900 root
Open PSFreedom and select the PL3 Mode
Open Terminal type root and then type: cat psnpayload.bin > /proc/psfreedom/payload
Done, Jailbreak your PS3

*Make sure you have Rootsh installed
*Gaia Manager and Open Manager v2.1-I both works online and without any problem
*Thanks to Pillum for the info

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

@KaOs, the payload you are sharing is the refined one, which caters for *both* PSN use and 3.50 spoofing, or is it one of the earlier payloads ?

I'm more interested in the more recent payload which combines both the above mentioned ideas together ..

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

1+ for this request. We want PSN + 3.50 Spoof.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Amen. Or a GUI version

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

doses Netflix and Hulu works now? Does it breake the jailbreak or could we installt it normal over the psn-store now?

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

I don't get it. I am using the one I posted already 6 or 7 pages back just fine. Was actually browsing PSN Store last night and playing God Of War. Not a single issue.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Hello WereCatf,

The problem is not with accessing the store.The instructions you gave us helped me to gain PSN access. But the problem is in getting netflix activated. So after using your method i could access the PSN store and download and install the netflix app. However when i try to launch it it asks me to upgrade to 3.42. Now, Many people havembeen able to bypss this by using a combination of PSN+3.50 spoof which makes netflix believe that the firmware is updated.
In summary the .bin file u provided us has only the PSN access. We need a .bin file which has both PSN+3.50 spoof.

That is how i understand it. Please correct me if i am wrong. Thanks

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Yes many others with different devices than the n900 have used the PSN+3.50 spoof to run netflix by downloading the app from PSN. Please post the .bin file if you find it anywhere.

Update: i just tried Hulu plus just now and it worked. Signed up for a 7 day free trail. Just jailbreak the ps3 using the instructions on page 52 and install from PSN.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

I'm still on 3.41 but I don't have a device at home that can be used, I was just waiting around to see some progress.

I think now is a good time to get one considering the PSN and the Netflix working. I was thinking about getting a dingoo, since I don't have a hand held game device. Does the dingoo have a good support on this? Is either that or one of those USB things, but which one has the best support?

I don't care for phones so getting one just for this seems like a waist of money, also I feel good with a dingoo, as I can just buy from a trusted website like Amazon or Ebay.

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

any news for n900?

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

hey mohammad, any luck with the new power kernel v45 workaround to get it to work? or is it possible to upload powerv40 by itself as a seperate package on extras and we can use that instead of the current one? cuz i really want psfreedom and i also like the features of power kernel...

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Here is the .bin PL3 payload for 3.41 with PSN + 3.50spoof

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

guys for gods sake how does it work with u??? its simple to do!! but i cant get it to work! i only get the jailbreak part success but no psn cause it requests update!
I've tried all the bin files around here with those steps
place the bin file in root

psfreedom-enable-n900.sh
"it takes pl3 as default"
cat psn350payload.bin > /opt/psfreedom/payload

and i jailbreak normally!

nothing happens! it keeps requesting the software update!! PLZZZZZ HELP WHAT AM I MISSING???

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

Didnt work for me, led turned green but it didnt work. Anyone got hermes with the fixes?

EDIT: Got it to work but version is still shown as 3.41 and PSN doesnt work, works with the earlier patch though

Re: [Announce] PSFreedom - an easy way to jailbreak your PS3
 

What do you mean by did not work? You could not jailbreak or could not log into the PSN?

Thanks
