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

Use this. It SHOULD work and allow you to go online.

well I’m not sure if this is going to do any good but i have coped the version.txt from dev_flash, vsh, ect and the certificates folder from dev_flash, data, cert and i was thinking if there was a way to get the certificates and version.txt from the 3.56 update we could overwrite some in the 3.55 because i have extracted some folders and files from the 3.56 but i cannot extract the vsh folder and i cannot find the dev_flash folder in the ps3update.pub yet would be fantastic if i had a little bit of help because i am looking around and way to fix this myself not sure if this will work though and i found something that might be interesting it’s called software_update_plugin.sprx not quite sure what it is but i found it in the dev_flash, data, vsh, module and in the vsh, resource folder i found software_update_plugin.rco i am not sure what i was doing i was just looking around anything related to version software update user accounts or the internet or the psn.
