Hack Your PS3 With your Droid Now!!!

[mmitchell816]

I know this is forum is more for hack of the droid its self, but you can now use the droid to hack the PS3!

PSFreedom now ported to the Droid! - PSX/PS2/PS3 Scene Newz

What is PSFreedom?

[mmitchell816]

The program to allow homebrew to be ran on the PS3. Essentially it puts the PS3 in debug mode allowing unsigned code to be ran. There has already been an open source SDK for the PS3 released and so far one homebrew app writen.

It's been done!

[DEV] PSFreedom(PSJailbreak) Android Port - Page 2 - xda-developers

So here is a basic recap of what needs to be done:

place linked files on root of sdcard
First do nandroid backup!
Then reboot into recovery fire up adb and
"adb shell"
"#cd /sdcard"
"#flash_image boot boot.img"
reboot into ROM normally
open a terminal
"$su"
"#mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system"
"#mv psfreedom.ko /data/psfreedom.ko"
"#insmod /data/psfreedom.ko"
"#mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system"
"#sync"
Then do the normal Jailbreak/PSgroove/PSFreedom power off on and quickly hit eject
It will take a little longer to boot (this is good)
Then under the "Game" tab it will show two new icons "/app_home/PS3/Game" and "Install Package Files"

Done using Cyanogenmod 6
Excellent job devs!

This site would've came in handy when I was looking for a way for me to play PS3 games without the disc...since my blu-ray drive burned out..-_-"

Too late now though, as I took it apart for the gigantic fan

Well this hack only came out about a week ago.

the rom doesn't came with apps to install. you would need to download the apps for it

go here and download it

Backup Manager: Stealth Edition Released | PS3 Hacks :: PS3 Homebrew :: PS3 Downloads

then throw the pkg file on the root of any usb drive.

then it should appear on the "install package folder" on the XMB

also if you want to install on to your internal hardrive make sure you don't have anything plugged in the usb sockets. (lol took me a long time to figure out way i wasn't given an option to stall internal)

You can still install to internal with a USB plugged in, just hit O when it asks if you want to backup to external. It will then prompt you to backup to internal, at least it should, mine does.

yea mine was funky for a bit so i reinstalled it everything works fine now. already got my main games backed on my internal HD (3DD,RDR,XIII(LOL44GB),BFBC2,M II, and Blur) now i can lock these babies up in the closet for safe keeping
