A Closer Look at PS3 Firmware 3.70

too bad. The only option to still be able to play backups is to stay on previous versions...

No this won't work. Repackaging the update will change the hash check. So the PS3 would check the update and say "My ass this is official firmware"

Your PS3 would still have to be OFW 3.60+ which would disable all jailbroken features in order for it to output the new Passphrase.

Now doing it with a legit PS3 and the latest update. There is the same hash problem. To grab the passphrase is actually pretty easy. All that needs to be done is as follows and hopefully someone out there can build off the work I have already done so here goes.

Performing a MIM on a PS3 from a computer connected to the same network. This will grab the header that is needed and output in plain text the new passphrase. This can be done on a jailbroken PS3 simply because we can change the file. Now doing this method on a legit PS3 will NOT work. What needs to be done is to create a new CA with openssl to get the ps3 to trust the connection to your computer. Now we cannot simply upload the new certificate we generate to the legit ps3. Now this is where I didn't have time to actually perform the whole setup, but I was thinking what had to be done is pass the new cert in between the connection from PS3. So to get it working it should look like this PS3 (legit), Second computer, 3rd computer.

Have the PS3 send out the request to sign in it then sends header information to your second computer that holds the fake cert and finally your third computer which is setup to arp spoof which will then be a trusted connection from the second computer and unencrypt the headers. The PS3 WILL fail the login this is normal but we are just trying to grab the new passphrase to inject it into charles or whatever tool.

Now this was where I last left off when I was playing around with it so I never got a chance to try it out. And when I get a break from working 6 days a week I will probably try this out but I am hoping someone understands what I am talking about and tries it out.

I's av waited nough time 4 CF so I's can play da latest gamez an it aint gona  hapen BRAH. da devs at sony are 2 good at lockin da ps3! I's is gona get a new ps3 from ebay coz da looters will sell dem cheap init. 
Time 4 all dem looters 2 chill an ave a smoke an let da comunati heal. peace

look i have the friggin firmware cracked 3.70. I am no sure of releasing just yet. Maybe next Jan or feb if i share it, i atleast want some nice games to come out with out sony throwing a quick update. The progam i created works as a virus /spyware then reports  out any altered  files sony did so you don't have to recreate everything-just a hint!!! I do have a second way "the apple of my eye"

I wouldn't hold my breath. Sony has always found way of putting up road blocks where they shouldn't be possible.

I remember people saying how sony could not do anything about the situation when failoverflow did their thing, yet now we are stuck on 3.55 and getting more and more behind sony.

i smell bullshit david. gtfo

GTFO

this will keep up until hackers or sony give up

Hackers NEVER give up. Just look at the Wii scene. Not one update since System Menu 4.3 came out in 2010, and Nintendo's machine is still at hackers' mercy. Every good Wii hacker is using PimpMyWii to automate the best IOSes, and running games from CFG and a USB harddrive on System Menu 4.1...

Wrong... Hackers just won't release the exploits until a few firmwares from now, when Sony's not so lawsuit-happy. "Errybody's super-scurred and quakin' in their pussy-boots."

at least i am able to get onto PSN using some dns trick, while still on 3.66

Hopefully You Do So Then Instead of being on 3.55 Custom Firmware :)

i hacked 3.70.. now i call it 3.70 TrollFirmWare..

oolololollloloo olololololololo ll

The only concern i have  is the misuse of my created programs,becaus e these apps can be misused, its very tempting to use them the wrong way--

i think u mean Versus XIII... XIII-2 Is ughh

Prepare to get banned by Sony lulz

Ok...I read somewhere that new encryption/decryption keys would mean older games encrypted with older keys would no longer work. Then how is it that they are using new keys ? And if this is what makes their console more secure why didnt they think of new keys earlier ?

can you please explain how you do that?

and how are you going to get your ps1 /ps2 /n64/roms.

umm come in hear bad mouthing when you going to download roms that you dont own go fu*k yourself.

google 'DNS bypass 3.70' and you should find the keys that will allow you to access PSN without going to 3.70. NO it will not ban you. And sony will likely remove the bypass in a week or 2

try to hold down the power button when you turn it on..listen for the first beep..should be able to reset video that way..if thats the case anyways

i supposed to say it is legal these days to download them... since there are no games released again for these consoles and i barely find games for the ps1
and n64 i cant find any games in the stores
and for the ps2 i can buy games whenever i want and i want to play them on the ps3 so i can play them in HD
by the way some people have ps3 but their ps2 are broken but they have ps2 games and they want to play them

and who said that i dont own the games i want to play ??
how do you know if i own them or not ???
most or all the games i want to play i own them

search for the net about that thing and you will see it is legal
so stop talking about a thing u dont have enough information about

do you really can do it? can you tell me? coz i accidently updated 3.55 to 3.56 n i guess no turning back huh? damn ! sony good ! the hackers knocked down completely. there no links for jail breaking this 3.56 !!

Y S SRS??

Brate, ako si hakova ovo cudo onda si veliko mudo. A ako nisi, ne seri. Odje kod nas je plata 200e soni kosta 400e i jos treba da kupujem igre na kredit. Po ovome ispada da kad otplatim ps3 trebam podic ponovo kredit da bih kupio jednu igru. Kad budem bio u mogucnosti da kupim i drugu igru izaci ce ps4 ili nesto slicno tako da cu opet kasnit jedno 10 godina. Odje se radi vise nego tamo kod vas a plate manje. Niko odavde ne kuka nego cuti i trpi, zato cutite i vi. Zivio sony ali zivio mi i geohot.
