    newbie to ps3 hacking

    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.

        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.

                        to jailbreak a ps3 the firmware must be 3.41 or lower

                        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

                              i used E3 card which now spoofs 3.55 firmware and can downgrade your ps3 too. e3 card reader, new generation ps3 chip with mulit-function
                              upgraded internal hard drive to 500 gigs and all is great
