(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So lets say someone figures out how to sign the FTP server, would we just put it on a USB and any PS3 would automatically recognize it because it has Sony's signature? Or how would we get signed PKG's onto the Ps3. And couldn't someone upload a signed PKG onto the internet instead of having people sign their own PKG's?

I would of thought you would need to restore to CFW with the FTP Server built into it :confused:

Correct me if Im wrong.

they could import it via 3.41 and data transfer it.

i have been on ps groove and i cant be bothered writing it all out so im paste some guys post, this is all u need to know about the keys:


Okay; definitive bottom line here.

1) If you have to ask what these keys mean and how to use them, they're useless to you. Consider this the magic numbers the insanely smart people need to make everything happen. You can't use them for anything, because if you had the knowledge to use them, you'd know what they were. They (these and the others) are encryption keys to be used to sign programs/updates/system files as legitimate, or to decrypt signed legitimate files, to modify them, study them, etc.

2) This should mean that in time, homebrew applications will be able to be 'signed' as valid, but things like Gaia Manager and other apps will still require modified firmware - for the most part. Most game launchers require access to Syscalls that don't exist in Sony firmwares. So no, your unhacked console will not run a manager - yet. They may incorporate a way to use Sony syscalls, until then it won't help at all.

3) NO, this will not lead to "jailbreaking" your PS3 as you know it. Modern jailbreaks rely upon vulnerabilities within the official firmware, those USB devices you're using now take advantage of those vulnerabilities and patch system memory to do "bad" things, AKA run unsigned code.

4) This WILL result in custom firmware. it will not require a USB device to jailbreak. It'll require a USB pendrive, or DVD, or other means of uploading a "system update" from one of the people mentioned in note 1. This update will flash its own firmware to your PS3 as if it was a Sony update, and from there you'll boot - from powered off to XMB like it was fresh out of the box, with no extra tools - but ready and waiting to do your bidding, uninhibited by Sony's desires or influences. 3.41 or 3.15 will be first, but in time, now that they can decode it, 3.50, 3.55, and likely any future firmware for the PS3 will be ported. So yes, eventually, you will be able to play GT5 and use the Move and watch your 3D Bluray movies, on your "unlocked" PS3....I say "unlocked" because "jailbroken" still implies a USB dongle hack in my mind.

AKA - for now, you wait. Those keys are for the people who made them, and the people who were already trying to get them. If you didn't know you needed them, or don't know what they mean, you wait for something that says "install this to unlock your system" from a REPUTABLE SOURCE.

The PS3 won't allow install of packages via USB unless it was jailbroken / Debug.

He's talking about PKGs, not PUPs

Next time I click a thread named signed packages without a single signed package, this dog will be your grandmother. You've been warned NGU!

ummm wait if its signed and no one use winzip on it wouldnt we be able to download straight off the interwebs???

If that was real i'd lol for a bit then stop and then really do this to your grandmother, but seriously theres no need for it we are all playing the waiting game it will be soon untill the custom firmware comes out trust me
