Bypassing PS3 PSN checks (guide by Tsukasa035):

Things you need:


  1. VMware Player with Ubuntu Desktop version installed (or a separate PC)
    *Ubuntu Server Version can also be used if you know how to work your way around Linux
  2. Charles Web Debugging Proxy



Installing the certificate on your PS3

1) Go to: C:\Program Files\Charles\docs
2) Copy charles-proxy-ssl-proxying-certificate.crt somewhere and rename to CA24.cer
3) Using AsbestOS Installer or mount_alejandro, put this file and overwrite the existing in dev_flash/data/cert

Installing and setting up dnsmasq

In your Ubuntu VMWare box:

Change your VMware network settings from NAT to Bridged:
You must login or register to view this content.


(The following commands in Terminal can also be pasted instead of typing!)

1) Reboot your Ubuntu box.
2) Start Terminal (Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal)

3) type: sudo apt-get install dnsmasq

4) type: sudo gedit /etc/hosts
4.1) Add the following 2 lines:
192.168.1.XXX feu01.ps3.update.playstation.net
192.168.1.XXX auth.np.ac.playstation.net

*NOTE: 192.168.1.XXX needs to point to the computer where Charles is running!
Replace eu with the region you're in! {eu, uk, us, mx, au etc...}

You must login or register to view this content.

4.2) Save the file and exit the text editor


5) type: ifconfig
You must login or register to view this content.

Make note of the following line: inet addr:192.168.1.XXX <-- This is depends on your install. This IP is what you will enter in your PS3 as DNS Server.


6) type: ps -ef|grep dnsmasq to confirm dnsmasq is running.
You must login or register to view this content.

From your Windows (host) PC, type ping [IP YOU GOT FROM ifconfig] and make sure you can see it. This concludes the Ubuntu part.

Installing and setting up Charles

Assuming you have installed Charles:



1) Save the following block of text as ps3-updatelist.txt somewhere you can easily access:

You must login or register to view this content.

Make sure you have no webserver or anything running that uses Port 80!! People say Skype may also use this port!

OPTIONAL 5) Proxy -> Windows Proxy Uncheck it so you only receive entries from your PS3 and not the PC you're on.

6) Proxy -> Proxy Settings <-- Note down the HTTP Port Charles is using

This concludes the Charles Web Debugging Proxy setup.



On your PS3, use the following network settings

DNS Server: {IP of virtual machine where dnsmasq is installed}

Proxy Server: {IP where Charles is running}
Proxy port: {Port of Charles you noted earlier}


Now, go and test your connection. If everything is configured properly then you should see some entries in the Charles window and be greeted with the following:

I've been on Geohot's since it came out. Then yesterday, I put on 3.55 OFw then the Patched Kmeaw 3.55 CFW. I took the .crt out of C:\Program Files\Charles\docs. Then I run AsbestOS on my PS3 and exit out of it when it says Cannot add patchset. Then I go into Comgenie's file manager and copy my CA24.crt to dev_flash\data\cert. Then I exit file manager and my PS3 freezes.

For people who have Windows there is a way to have Ubuntu and Windows using Wubi.

You must login or register to view this content.

And the good part is you can uninstall it like a normal program Happy
