A new PlayStation Network-enabled custom firmware was released a few days ago, which is bad enough in its own right, but the real trouble comes from the follow-up release of the "LV0 decryption key," because that allows any changes Sony makes to the PSN security code to be decrypted "with little or no effort." Access to the LV0 key means that PS3 firmware packages can be decrypted on a PC, then re-encrypted with existing firmware 3.55 keys in order to run on hacked consoles.

I honestly don't know. I saw this pop up on my news thingy and immediately thought of you guys, since I always see everyone talking about PS3 firmware stuff in the shoutbox. Smile

Once you have the master key, its done. All you need to do is decrypt and grab the 4.30 kernel and search for any key change in there, sign a pkg with said FW's keys and you should be able to run on that FW


Oh my mistake Smile

I checked to make sure I wasn't double posting (searched for LV0 and 3.55) and I swear I didn't see anything posted about this -.-
