But!




Before you jump the gun you should know that this is considered a test release or an “early preview.”

It’s not as straightforward as you’d hope.

You need OpeniBoot installed and your iPhone must be a 2G or 3G model; iPod Touch 1G works too. Included are the sources that you must compile yourself for the iPhone; a binary is included for the iPod Touch.

Because of its current state I’ll as

From the README:

Just a small testing release of PSFreedom for iPhoneLinux.

A precompiled kernel/initrd is in the iPT1G folder, the USB kernel
patch is in the PSFreedom/iphone folder. It should be applied to
kernel_common from the iDroid-Project user on github as detailed on
the idroidproject.org web site
.

The android.img.gz is the initrd plus a testing boot script, the
.ko should go in /lib in it.

To build PSF, use ‘make clean && make iphone’ from the PSFreedom
folder as usual.

At the time, Backup Manager isn’t working (and no, it’s not due to
the /dev_bdvd patch), but I’m working on fixing that.

Don’t expect too many support, as this is just an ‘early’ preview.

Booting the initrd will work by using the ‘Android’ menu option in
OpeniBoot. Once the screen starts filling up with ‘INIT’ you can do
the starting as usual with ‘jailbreak’ devices. Note that the iPhone
should be the only device plugged in the PS3′s USB ports.

It’s progress all right. Sooner or later the whole process will be simplified — you can count on that. Be patient — don’t update to 3.42. Good lookin’ NTAuthority. Props.

Openiboot Installation:



Requirements

•A PC running a Linux operating system
◦git revision control system. This package is called “git-core” in some operating systems, such as Ubuntu.
•A “pwned” iPhone or iPod Touch. A device can be “pwned” using either the Pwnage Tool or QuickPwn, both of which are available at You must login or register to view this content. .

Check out the code:

cd iphonelinux/

The following is a general copy/paste of the RUNNING in openiboot folder:


Building openiboot for the first time:

1. Build an ARM toolchain (only needs to be done once):

1. Run, as root:
Originally posted by another user
toolchain/build-toolchain.sh make

2. Wait, for a long time, as the toolchain is compiled.


2. Compile OpeniBoot:

1. To run openiboot from the recovery mode (a.k.a iboot), you’ll need to create an img3 image.

2. Build: (A system capable of running x86 Linux binaries is required. If compiling on 64-bit linux, you may need libc6-dev-i386 and type
Originally posted by another user
export ARCH=x86_64
before you proceed with the next steps.)

1. For iPod touch, run:
Originally posted by another user
PLATFORM=IPOD make openiboot.img3


2. For iPhone 2G, run:
Originally posted by another user
PLATFORM=IPHONE make openiboot.img3


3. For iPhone 3G, run:
Originally posted by another user
PLATFORM=3G make openiboot.img3


4. If you have linker problems with mk8900image please see You must login or register to view this content.

3. Compile all in client/ :
Originally posted by another user
cd client && make all && cd ..

(requires libusb, libreadline and pthread)

4.
Originally posted by another user
sudo client/loadibec openiboot.img3


5. Run the client:
Originally posted by another user
sudo client/oibc


3. To install openiboot in the NOR (optional): run “install” in openiboot client (to uninstall, restore/update/run QuickPwn)



Updating an existing openiboot installation:


1. Pull the new code from Git: (“git pull” if you already downloaded the code using Git)

2. Compile openiboot, but this time you don’t have to make an img3 image:

1. For iPod Touch, run:
Originally posted by another user
PLATFORM=IPOD make


2. For iPhone 2G, run:
Originally posted by another user
PLATFORM=IPHONE make


3. For iPhone 3G, run:
Originally posted by another user
PLATFORM=3G make


3. Compile all in client/:
Originally posted by another user
cd client && make all && cd ..

(requires libusb, libreadline and pthread)

4. Launch openiboot, using the menu on the device.

5. Run the client:
Originally posted by another user
sudo client/oibc


6. Copy the openiboot binary in the device memory:
Originally posted by another user
!openiboot.bin


7. Jump to it:
Originally posted by another user
go 0×09000000


8. Relaunch openiboot console using the menu on the device.

9. Relaunch the client:
Originally posted by another user
sudo client/oibc


10. Install the new version:

Can you restore your PS3 to default settings and get the first firmware that ever come out. I know it sounds most unlikely. But if you can do it you could then download the wanted firmware couldnt you Happy
