newbie to ps3 hacking

[leeunwin]

ok so ive got a soft modded wii that i did myself easy enough

also psp modded with newest firmware did myself

also a xbox 360 flashed did myself


so how easy is it to jailbreak a ps3 with a iphone

also once done and you have backup manager on ps3 itself ect...
can you add a external hardrive to put the games on and play directly from that and do i need the original in the bluray drive

I wouldn't bother with the Iphone it's too much hassle. It takes it several minutes to boot and you can only get the PS3 into the correct mode once and then you have to reboot it. There is also no indication that it did its job.

Last time I tried was a month or so ago, maybe things have changed but it really is so much easier to get a dongle, they only cost ?5 or so from China.

ok cheers for info over iphone hacking

what about this ftp thing ive got the client on pc for it and i no u have to install it on ps3


wont i dont get is is there a way to transfer games instead of downloading to my pc harddrive then across to ps3 via ftp..?

[Mjolinor]

The FTP server for the PS3 has to be installed on the internal hard disk of the PS3 and appears as a game once the PS3 is booted with the dongle. Once rrun on the PS3 you can connect to it with the client from your PC should you want to transfer files that way. If you have the original CD / DVD / blu ray game then you can copy that directly to the internal hard disk of the PS3 with the file manager that you will install once you get it booted or you can stick the game on a USB stick / disk and plug that in the PS3.

As far as I know these are the only ways to get games onto the PS3.

so can i put a game in my pc drive copy it over to a usb flash stick and copy that to ps3?

[leeunwin]

ok so i can put a ps3 game in ps3 and copy that straight onto my hard drive ? will the disk still need to be in the bluray for me to play it

[leeunwin]

does it need to be 3.4.1 are can it be any lower eg.. aslong as its not above 3.4.1 as im finding it really hard to find a ps3 running 3.4.1

to jailbreak a ps3 the firmware must be 3.41 or lower

does it need to be 3.4.1 are can it be any lower eg.. aslong as its not above 3.4.1 as im finding it really hard to find a ps3 running 3.4.1

some games will need higher firmwares to run, so unless you need to keep linux update it to 3.41, all newer games will need 3.50 to work so as yet you will not be able to play gt5 etc.
You can get 3.41 firmware HERE

USBBreak dongle will fool your 3.41 PS3 into thinking it's running 3.5
