fumanchu Posted September 6, 2010 Posted September 6, 2010 PSFreedom for Dingoo Released - Hack the PS3 With a Dingoo A320September 6th, 2010, 21:08 Posted By: wraggster The PS3 Homebrew/Hacking Scene just gets more interesting and Waninkoko of Wii Custom Firmware Fame has released PSFreedom for Dingoo, so whilst many others pay over the odds for the PSjailbreak you can just use one Homebrew Handheld to hack into your PS3 and turn your PS3 into a Homebrew Machine info.http://www.dcemu.co.uk/psfreedom-for-dingo...320-324400.html also there could possibly a dreamcast emu on the way for ps3 and 360.http://www.dcemu.co.uk/nulldc-news-dreamca...ews-324418.html
Alpha Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 It will be VERY interesting to see how nullDC and PCSX2 will run on the PS3. Last time I read, PS3 has only 128mb of ram at its disposal?
Gryph Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 PS3 has 256mb for graphics and 256 mb for system. Sony released a mandatory firmware update to mitigate this hack.
Agozer Posted September 8, 2010 Posted September 8, 2010 PS3 has 256mb for graphics and 256 mb for system. Sony released a mandatory firmware update to mitigate this hack.Yeah. 3.42 released a few hours ago. I wish Sony would gives us useful features that people have been begging for months if not years instead of "security updates" every three months or so. Well, on the plus side, Sony has hinted at a very comprehensive update by the end of the years that should offer lots of true fixes, including lots of fixes for that trash called the PS3 Browser. Hell, we might even get a completely new browser and not shit based on something as worthless as NetFront.

Can anybody already smell a Custom Firmware in the near future? I think the PS3 will be following the PSP's footsteps... just don't freakin' upgrade!
emsley Posted September 8, 2010 Posted September 8, 2010 There in now - they will find a way to keep it going.
Agozer Posted September 8, 2010 Posted September 8, 2010 just don't freakin' upgrade!a big deal for people who like the PSN Store and like to see their friends' trophy lists, view leaderboards in games, etc. Many of these people don't know how/don't bother with using alternate proxies or bypassing Sony's DNS servers, either.
General Plot Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 Got my Atmel AVR XPLAIN board last Monday (the 6th) and it works great. Easy to setup drivers and flash (whole process taking about 2 minutes total). There's something nice about having dev mode available.
General Plot Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Woah indeed. Now for some CFW maybe? Can't wait to see how well nullDC performs on it when Razi's done.

emsley Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 OK A few questions! 1. You buy the gadget.2. To copy the games to the hard drive you stick the gadget in and just "copy it?"3. What happens if say uncharted 3 is released at it requires a firmware update to play? Is this gadget firmware proof?
General Plot Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 (edited) Got my Atmel AVR XPLAIN board last Monday (the 6th) and it works great. Easy to setup drivers and flash (whole process taking about 2 minutes total). There's something nice about having dev mode available. Awesome! Where did you purchase yours from?Got mine from Farnell (here in the UK). The board set me back about 35 pounds ($50 US), which included shipping. I ordered it on Friday (the 3rd) and had it the following Monday. Here's the link to it: Atmel AVR XPLAIN. Now with real homebrew taking off in the PS3 scene, I can't wait to see what else people start creating. I've already dumped my hard drive and flash (there are 3 flash locations by the way). OK A few questions! 1. You buy the gadget.2. To copy the games to the hard drive you stick the gadget in and just "copy it?"3. What happens if say uncharted 3 is released at it requires a firmware update to play? Is this gadget firmware proof? You buy the dev evaluation board, flash it with a hex file (which you can find preconfigured ones depending on which board you bought) and you use the software that the board uses for programming (in my case it's Atmel FLIP). You plug the device in to a PC, choose to flash it with the hex file, 20-30 seconds later, it's ready. You plug it into your PS3 (with all power off), then switch on power and press power button immediately followed by eject (make sure there's no disc in there before doing this). You'll hear three fast beeps if you've done it right. Once the PS3 boots up, you can unplug the board and dev mode will stay avtivated. You then choose the option to Install Package File from the game menu and put the backup manager package on a USB stick (not the dev board though) and install from there). When you run backup manager it detects what game is in the drive and any you have on your hard drive. If you choose the game in your drive, it'll start ripping the game to the hard drive (if you want it to rip to internal drive, don't have a USB hard drive plugged in). After it's done, put a disc (any regular PS3 game) in the drive and choose your ripped game from backup manager menu and it'll run from the hard drive. Edited September 14, 2010 by General Plot
Inky Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 I've been watching all the PS3 isos pop up on torrent servers and I find it incredibly funny that 90% of them are in the 5 to 7 gig range. "ohz, butt we gots the blurayz! our games are better cuz we gots moar gigz!"
L.S.D Posted September 19, 2010 Posted September 19, 2010 I've been watching all the PS3 isos pop up on torrent servers and I find it incredibly funny that 90% of them are in the 5 to 7 gig range. "ohz, butt we gots the blurayz! our games are better cuz we gots moar gigz!"Lol, the only game that i know of that fully utilise Bluray space is MGS4. I dont think any other games used that much space :/ GOW3 maybe? Or any PS3 exclusive? But seriously, i only found this useful IF you intend not to go online at all.
