Right, i'm on 3.55 and cant go online, i'm trying to come up with a 3.56 bypass, i've successfully tricked my ps3 into downloading my custom modded You must login or register to view this content. file, any ideas on what to edit inside the ps3-updatelist.txt ?

it currently says:

    # UK
Dest=87;CompatibleVersion=0000bc25-;
Dest=87;CompatibleSystemSoftwareVersion=3.5600-;
Dest=87;ImageVersion=0000bc76;SystemSoftwareVersion=3.5600;CDN=https://duk01.ps3.update.playstation.net/update/ps3/image/uk/2011_0127_6e070c96e0464e993aaf9deac3660863/PS3UPDAT.PUP;CDN_Timeout=30;


any ideas, I've already tried changing 3.5600 to 3.500 but it still wants to download something.

Thanks Happy



We (the people active in this thread) are going to compare Signing into PSN on 3.55 and signing in on 3.56. We will be using wireshark to record what gets sent from the PS3 to sony & vice versa.

We will sign in on each firmware, OFW 3.55 and OFW 3.56, and while signing in wireshark will be recording the data being sent back and forth.


Hopefully this will get us one step further to bypassing 3.56 again Smile.

EDIT 2:

Right I have successfully recorded data while signing in on OFW 3.56, the file is located here (some bits I had to take out as these were getting picked up by other things, my antivirus updating and other things)

but I have recorded the data while signing in on 3.56, its somewhere in there :P Just have a look at it and see if you find anything interesting

UPDATE: I added the .pcap which shows alot more information:

You must login or register to view this content.

You'll need to download Wireshark to open it: DOWNLOAD WIRESHARK You must login or register to view this content.

Now were waiting for the wireshark 3.55 "PSN sign in" data

EDIT 1:

If your using the DNS bypass, or proxy bypass, then when you try system update via internet, it will say it has the current version, yet if you sign in via PSN it says theres a system update available.

So Sony has found out the real firmware through PSN, somewhere on the ps3's HDD is a file that tells sony that the ps3 is on 3.55, but where is this file?

Ways I see of fixing this:

finding the file and changing 3.55 to 3.56

installing a custom firmware which blocks out updates, or which says its on 3.56.

Yeah it doesn't let you sign in. By it works, I meant the re-direct feature on the proxy server is working.

but heey wassup we know the IP of the Cloud system :P

Lets Down it Winky Winky
send some HUGE packages over there and lets down that server for a while Happy


No the cloud system has nothing to do with it and doesn't even exist (yet) It will be part of 3.60. And as for the rootkit I am sure sony hasn't actually turned it on (yet) but is there for them to use.

They patch nothing. They disable the servers allocated on 3.55, so this IS impossible. And it's impossible to change the real "Version" Of the firmware.

why am i finding parts inside 3.56 which sends packages to PSN ? like the Cloud system is doing ?

as i sad before ..

the 3.56 was a security patch then 3.56v2 came out and that was for a Hdd upgrade Bugg fix ... but it took way to long for just fixing a hdd bug haha . no sony did another dirty thing inside it Winky Winky

Wow i forgot about the HDD update which means they must be using the rootkit. The cloud system is something different though.

cloud system is turned on but not functional Winky Winky

download wireshark and analys the data you will see its sending info to sony about your Ps3 Winky Winky

read along the rest of the forum more ppl found it out today while my team found it 2 weeks ago =D

but if you make everything public a noob will post in on youtube and sony will know it very fast so they can patch it before the new CFW comes out Winky Winky

so the best ya can do is dont leak till the CFW comes out Winky Winky
