CrashSerious Updates PS3 FactoryServiceMode Tool


Submitted by Demonchild; February 15, 2012


You have to be serious if you're following the PS3 scene and haven't heard of Crash by now. CrashSerious that is, but if you haven't heard of Crash Bandicoot, you should just quit. Anyways, CrashSerious updated his tool which allows you to enter service mode without the need of an addon dongle.

If you are rocking a PS3 with a custom firmware, (outside of the Cobra & True Blue ones, awh) you can install the .pkg file which will shuffle you between service mode when ran. You don't need any special USB drives and like CrashSerious says in his release notes, you can stick it to the dongle makers.

You can grab the updated tool below if you haven't already. Once again, this only works with custom firmwares that doesn't have Cobra or True Blue in its name. This includes official firmwares 1.50 through 4.11, so don't ask in the comments.
