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.

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


Well if you were reading the forum then you would know i already been analyzing the data with wire-shark lol, but i think were getting to off topic with this forum.

I have done it differently. I have downloaded 3.55 firmware and uploaded it to my WampServer and edited the ps3-updatelist.txt which I uploaded on my website. I have signed in via Proxy (3.56) so basically this could be a downgrade. If this works without error, homebrew will be enabled and online also.

I am downloading via PS3 right now so wish me luck :y:

Well you could keep it in as it would only be detected when going on PSN. Would love to see a 3.56 cfw
