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'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.

I keep getting some weird error code, not supported exactly at 60%. It may require in change of firmware aswell, editing that little 3.55 to 3.56. Im not too sure.

my bad viper read it wrong


Anywon found much difference between 3.55 and 3.56 sent information?

The only way it will work is to have a cfw 3.55 that installs as a 3.56.
So the PS3 thinks it's a 3.56

At the moment the only thing that can be done is to find out where the extra check come's from.

It is an extra check and for now I can only guess it's in the authentication protocol.
Unfortunately that's over ssl and without the private certificate key there is no way to decrypt it.

See my other post for more info.

becuz we started the Site 2 weeks ago and need that forum Winky Winky
the most is a copy from the Team-Blizzard forum and pasted on Ngu Winky Winky

and no iam not the only member posting but the most ppl are on it for the downloads and READ about our work Winky Winky

other team members are just to busy getting the job done so thats why iam posting cuz iam not home at the moment ( till 14. Feb. ) so i cant do very much so i get the forum updated right now Winky Winky

the PsKinect Team has also a Forum on our site cuz we have members who arnt on Ngu and want to read about it Winky Winky

so Skatin ( PsKinect Team ) has his own forum on our site Winky Winky

Cuz we Work Together on fighting sony =D

so they make the Playstation Underground Network and we make Hombrew ,CFW and stuff like that Winky Winky
