hmmm why it doesnt work for me :D Backups? they won't work BDMV disabled is standing there ;)

What Device are you on?

Third Try and it works :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
I edited the psfreedom.ko before adding it to allow backups. ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
great, can you post the edited file here. thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
I think it's not legal to post that file, tuxing... :o
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
hmm.. dont think it will be an issue,

or else can you mail at tuxing(at)gmail
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
I always have the same problem. I never look in my pm box... :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] the3rd:
You got pm
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
thanks again

cant beleive it, this port works on touch diamond2

just jailbroke my ps3 with topaz
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Sylar00:
Can anyone sent me edited file by PM ? :x

Ty
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gwon:
Same here too.

And some clue as to where they surface when new updates are released would be appreciated.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] DiZtraction:
Is it possible to PM me the edited file also please and thankyou
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] neilhand2:
alternate link?

deleted - psfreedom wiki is back up...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mysticg:
can someone pm me the corrected file? Thanks so much in advanced. Also, how do I run haret when connected to pc, if I cant run files, from sd card when connected?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Lavezzi87:
Can I have the edited file in pm, please ? Backup don't work

ps: sorry for my little english :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gwon:
When you plug your phone in to usb, choose 'active sync' instead of Disk Mode. You'll then have access to the SD card while it's plugged in.

Exploit works. I've just ran it now, looking at jailbroken PS3 thanks to my Raphael :)

Now if someone would just tell us how to do the backup mod :)

(I tried from the wiki, putting a payload bin file into /proc/psfreedom/payload - but I'm told that payload isn't a directory.)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
Guys, its very easy to edit the file. Use some hex editor like Ultraedit. Open the .ko file and search for this ascii string: dev_xxxx

Change the string to dev_bdvd and save the file. Done. ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] loader187:
so tac... do you still have to change the payload or does editing the .ko file do the same thing?

"The payloads are what gets executed when the exploit runs. There are four different payloads currently shipped with PSFreedom in the bins/ directory :

payload_bdemu.bin : This is the standard payload with BD-Emu support (which allows to play backups)"
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
Just go to WinMo, edit and replace the psfreedom.ko, run haret and insert module. There's no difference in the process. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Soul Assassin:
Does one have to wait until android is fully booted before removing the usb cable?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] _-1g1-_:
It says unknown USB Device ... Exploit dont work.. any idea.

The one without edit worked sometimes ^^
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
Ok, this is what i have to do to get it working. I always do the same.

- Boot in WinMo.

- Plug USB to PC and Sync device (until the end of sync in pc screen)

- Run HARET and let it totally boot in Android WITHOUT UNPLUGING USB FROM PC

- Unplug USB

- Switch off (back switch) PS3

- In Android Terminal > su > cd sdcard > insmod psfreedom.ko

- Plug Diamond to PS3

- Switch on PS3

- Power > Eject

I have "unknown usb device" error if not doing the process above.

Hope that helps. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] loader187:
I did those steps and when I run it. it says insmod: cant insert 'psfreedom.ko': cannot allocate memory.

Any ideas. Is it because my main rom before harret uses to too much memory. is it because I am using the cab version where it installs it into the 'andboot' folder?

Thanks in advance
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Soul Assassin:
This really is hit and miss guys, out of the 20 times I have done this it only worked twice, looks like you have to be really quick with the power/eject, and I mean lighting fast.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] _-1g1-_:
Strange at PC it is known as USB HUB.

So It Shall work. Did you update System rootfs etc to newest?

Maybe there is my mistake that older aren't that compatible with it
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
I'm using latest complete xdandroid 2.2 bundle. Just deleted modules file and replaced with the one from psfreedom pack. Of course, replaced zimage too.

I have been able to backup (and play from external HDD) two games, so it's sure it works.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] ger006fr:
First thanks to the developer who port this to the raphael =).

I've managed to launched it correctly once, but something i've wondered, once i typed "insmod psfreedom.ko"

if i am not fast enough to push the eject button, do i need to restart the phone to WinMo and restart Haret.exe or all i need to do is to unplugged the phone turn off the ps3 then replugged the phone and try again ?

Thanks in advance =)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] _-1g1-_:
Now it works so many Trys :-O
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] wisinx:
Im with him please answer this question
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gunkle:
I have successfully done it now 3 times without rebooting my phone. My device is a Raph 500 (verizon touch pro) with the latest xdandroid 2.2 and Patched files found in this thread.

Thanks everyone for your hard work.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] txhc4life:
Working on touch pro 2

I just ran backup manager. The timing was a little tricky, and I installed android 2.2 by cab file. I'm not sure but it didn't work till I launced android from haret.exe instead of using the shortcut.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] rhan75:
I just ran it and it works!!! Thanks Devs!!!

I am using Rhod400 w/ 2.2 Blzn and everything works great, Wifi, Phone and sound. I haven't tested the gps but those three are most important to me.

Few things I noticed:

1. Timing of plugging in and pressing button has something to do with success or fail. Of the several tries, only two times worked. Both times, I waited 5 ~ 10 sec after plugging in the power to the PS3.

2. I didn't have to reboot into Windows and restart Android in order for PSFreedom to work both times.

3. "rmmod psfreedom" removes the module.

I am going to test by removing and loading the module again without reboot and try to see if it works.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] rhan75:
rmmod & insmod w/o rebooting works perfect. You don't have to reboot your phone after you are done with jailbreaking. Simply rmmod and use your phone and when you need to jailbreak again, insmod and you are all set :)

I haven't tested the playing backup games but backup itself is working fine.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] viperius:
This works.

The timing has to be just right. I think I hit it by fluke on the 8 try.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] sean222:
Thanks! This helped with the retrys...so I didn't have to keep rebooting Android.

Got the jailbreak to work after about 6 tries. I was initially too fast. You have to slow down a bit and make sure you hear the beep of the eject button...if you didn't...you're probably too quick like I was.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kawaz750:
problem

i m having a problem ,enen though i have the new folders (install paccage files and the ps3 game) in the xbar when i m trying to manage the ps3 game folder it shows me an error code ( error during the start operation 80027f14)

have anyone has a same problem

thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kosmarnik:
Same here, are you sure you have a disc inserted? Any disc?

Though I'm on Rhodium.

I checked my .ko file and bdvd string is ther and I have no frigging idea why it's not working.

Installed all homebrew that exists, well the FTP server :D

It's working nicely.

But no backups load :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] MorbusMors:
Can someone upload the files you need because PSfreedon is down atm :(

Edit: It woks again now :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Feartech:
hi!

could someone please pm me the modified ko file please?

many many thanks in return!

:)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gunkle:
Anyone having issues loading backed up games? I installed stealth backup manager and it makes the backups but when I try to load it the disc always stay as the one in my drive. I used the"modified" files posted in this thread.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Soul Assassin:
Funny no one has asked, but what happens when you receive a call or text while your plugged into the ps3?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] gunkle:
As far as I've read in other phone forums it only affects wifi and usb. All other functions are working. Plus you only need to have psfreedom.ko loaded for like 1 minute. Once the ps3 stats you can unplug and turn off psfreedom.ko
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Barathum91:
Hi everyone ;)

Well i tried now many many times to get the ps3 working, so that i can see those 2 folders.

Finally it worked, but I got the same Error as you two :(

Dont know how to fix it.

Maybe some1 can send me the changed psfreedom.ko , cause maybe i did something wrong there.

Got a Diamond 100 with Android 2.2 and I also got a disc inserted...

So if some1 knows how to fix this Error I would really appreciate it :D TY

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Feartech:
managed to get filed hexed up! installed fine from phone first time. am i being dumb but when i reboot ps3 and try to go to backup manager i get an error 80029519 and program won't load. Works fine when i plug phone into PS3 and do the power and eject button thing. so basically, do i need to have my phone plugged in whenever i want to use back manager or do i need to do anything else to make it work

cheers
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Soul Assassin:
Your phone has to be plugged in whenever you want to use backup manager.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kosmarnik:
Um, not really.

You only need it while you fire up the PS3.

You can unplug the phone then.

Still, it's cumbersome if you still use WM and have to wait for android to boot :|
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Feartech:
ahh!

thats great. at least i now know!

cheers
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] erpato:
Can anyone send me the file ko changed? thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Barathum91:
hm i got a fixed psfreedom.ko file

got the ps3 working and creating a backup just now, but i still got this error 80027f14
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
Nope, it just has to be jailbroken on every reboot.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] arifmunshi:
could someone pm the backup manager compatible ko file please,

got as far as running the backup manager trying to load a game but only the disc game was showing in the xmb.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
Ps_game folder is just an artefact for us with no function.

Just select the backed up game with backup manager, which will exit to xmb. Then the disc in xmb will change to the game you selected in backup manager. Play the game by selecting the disk.

Seems psfreedom.ko not at fault.

Hope this helps.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] erpato:
PS3 tells me: unknown usb

Anyone can help me?Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
Try again several times.

If its still no go, reboot to winmo, sync with pc, boot xdandroid with usb connected, try the button thingy again.

Keep trying as it definitely works.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kawaz750:
no backups load yet (error during the start operation 80027f14)

please help
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] OnMilk:
can anyone please pm me the file ?? :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kawaz750:
i have managed to rip games with back up manager,but i can't load them

when i try to reach ../application/ps3games/ it shows me an error code 80027F14 during start operation :(

can anyone help please ???? :o
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
Load backup games using backup manager not the ps3games folder link.

Then goto xmb you will see your disc loaded. Play
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kawaz750:
i try this before but nothing happens :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
Defenitely things do happen,but we dont notice.

On loading game in backup manager it exits to xmb, what we need has happened.

Look at the disc icon in the game menu, it must have changed to the game you just loaded at backup manager.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] kawaz750:
no change..it shows me the disk game
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] manufacture1:
Same problem... But in 1,5 hour i will check it on Assasian Creed 2. On GOW 3 it's not working stil see games from cd...

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] sergons:
Same problem... :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Feartech:
not sure whats going on, i got it working once, now all i get is unrecognised usb device flash up about 3 times. have tried re-copying all files back to sd-card. followed instructing to the letter. ah well, will carry on trying! :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] sm4rty:
best would be if you doesnt need to start haret when active sync is connected to your pc.

is this planned or possible?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] sergons:
I had the same problem till I found a way how to boot psfreedom.

Connect phone to ps3.

Press rear power button,then immediately press front power button>eject, otherwise you will get "unrecognised usb device" message.

P.S Sorry for my English.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] manufacture1:
OMG It's ALIVE!! :) Sory for tab but 9 ours siting on this was terrible :)

Don't know how i runed it. Maby fredoom of "robcrack " made that or i made something by mistake :) but after 9 ours now i am playing GOW3 :) and made copy of uncharted 1 and too working :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] sergons:
Did you installed the game on internal or external hdd?

I still can't load the backup.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] manufacture1:
Okay

First i done backup of Uncharted 1 on external. It took about 1 hour or more. After that i downloaded freedom that rob gave . Deleted earlier and gave that new one. After it normalny launched Android.... Qucik on and eject . Launched Backup manager and then i puted cd and i run Uncharted 1 and it worked :)

I hope you understand me :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] sergons:
Problem is solved.Installed freedom from robcrack, can load backups now.Thanks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] bluerein:
works great for me ..

first time everytime ..

which brings me on to this from the psgroove website

# Does the dongle only need to be used once to convert my PS3 to a debug unit? No, you must use it every time you want to play a backup. [B]Removing the dongle crashes the system[/B].

I do the jailbreak thing once then take my phone off and it still works... in fact its been on 6hrs now .. ive installed via ftp etc .. ran games.. all with the phone not connected ...

anyone confirm this??
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
PSGroove was modified to work if device is removed before loading. PSJailbreak dongle has to be plugged in anytime.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] bluerein:
ah I see...

cheers
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] bigmicka:
everyone is talking about the files from robcrack. where is the link to this?

I downloaded one last night that i thought had the backup manager in it, but when I got the extra options listed under the game menu there was no backup manager listed.

have downloaded rdx_manager.pkg to load on a sd card to load this separately if needed.

pm to robcracks version would be appreciated.

Micka
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] metalheavy:
Whoa...

I've done all this and gotten the break to work but where is this so called backup manager? I have no idea on how to install it once all this is on my ps3. I have a manager.pkg which I am assuming has to be loaded in order to use the manager? I'm lost when it comes to installing the backup manager. Anyone help?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] bigmicka:
Metal Heavy.

I am going to try putting that package onto an sd card and loading it from there.

but at work right now.

Micka
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] imatrix:
Finally, got it working, just tested on Battlefiled - Bad Company.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] manufacture1:
Okay you must do something like this.

When you goona run a PS3 in freedom mode you will se 2 options

One is Install Packages . Then you put backup menager on pendrive and run "Install Packages" and just install it :)

Done

Here you have clear instruction without link :)

* First, you need to know if PSFreedom works on your device, so go to the Device compatibility list and verify that your device is in there
* If your device isn't listed, then make sure your device is indeed capable of running a Linux based operating system!
* If your device isn't in the list and is a Linux device, then go to the ControllerList to know how to verify which controller your device uses, in order to attempt to guess if your device is supported or not
* Once you found your device in the list, and it is set as 'Complete, then click on the device name to go to that device's page
* Follow the device specific instructions for getting PSFreedom on your device.
* Once you have the driver loaded on your device, you may want to configure it to use a different payload than the default one. Read the Using bin files page for more info.
* Once you're ready, turn the switch off in the back of your Playstation 3 or unplug the power cord.
* Then plug in your device and plug in the power cord of the PS3 or flip the switch back on.
* Once you have that done, quickly press the power then immediately after press the eject button (as fast as you can).
* You will know it work when it takes a slightly longer time (about 5 seconds more) to turn on.
* The PS3 should boot up and you will see two new options in the games portion of the XMB (cross media bar).
* That's it, you've rooted your PS3, and you are ready to install Homebrew applications!
* You can now safely disconnect your device and return it to normal operation mode while enjoying this exploit.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] bigmicka:
Thanks I think that is what alot of people are missing.

The psfreedom will allow to you run the code. you still need the backup manager software on another medium to perform a backup.

Micka
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Rick200SX:
Sony has released a new firmware version, so if you update your PS3, you cannot use the jailbreak anymore... Lets hope hackers can find another way? :P

I got it working on 3.41 btw!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] rosary:
Just a question : Why do we need to connect the phone to a PC and have an ActiveSync connection?

Thanks,
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] TaC:
To initialize the right usb functions.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] metalheavy:
Got the whole thing up and running. Anyone find a way of rebooting the ps3 without rebooting the phone but just disconnecting the cable and doing the cycle of powering on and pressing the proper button sequence? I found that I have to format my sdcard and put the files back on everytime to get a clean exploited boot. Anyone have a easier way of rebooting the program through the prompt or something of that sort? There's got to be an easier to do this without going through all that hassle.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] tuxing:
My phone has been booted to xandroid since one day and did insmod thing once, since then i have used the phone as the psfreedom dongle for at least 10 times without a problem.

Even on reboot theres no need to format sd card.

You just have to properly initialise usb and insmod for once, then use it for ever or repeat steps if you go back to winmo.

Issue is all about timing the power eject combo.

Ps3 also charges the phone, helpful while on thirsty android.

Am loving it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] metalheavy:
So let's say if I have done the hack and it works. If I power down the ps3 and remove the usb cable and re-attach it with the exploit still sitting on the same screen as when I did it previously, will it still boot the exploit? Basically if I ran it once and then left it connected to my ps3 and just disconnect it and reconnect it after I shut down/power cycled without running the mod again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] rosary:
Does it make the phone to be USB slave?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] metalheavy:
Well I tried to leave it connected and it does not work for me that way. It's not incorrect cycling neither. Funny thing is when I come the command prompt and type in "insmod psfreedom.ko" the very first time after a format it will go to the next line and sit at "#" and then the exploit works perfect. But if I reboot the phone or anything of the such and try it again it will actually create 2 lines of "#"

Example: First run

# insmod psfreedom.ko

#

Example: Second or more run's of the exploit after the first successful attempt.

#insmod psfreedom.ko

#

#

#

May be something simple but maybe not. I have tried to cycle the ps3 after running it the second time several times. Sometimes cycled it 10 times with the same exact proper sequence that the first run of the exploit had. Anyone else had this happen?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] metalheavy:
All good. For some reason it was creating some temporary files and when i wiped them and tried again it worked perfectly. Anyone notice after loading a game and then "Quitting the game" causes the ps3 to reboot and you lose the connection to the exploit? I found that if you press the ps button and select Backup Manager instead of Quit Game it wont knock the exploit off. Hopefully it can help someone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] c0011j:
I must be stupid.. but when I am in the Terminal, and I typ the command cd/sdcard it says card not found.

wtf :-(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] mosimo:
cd /sdcard

Notice the space between cd and /sdcard

Got mine working finally. It really does only work like 1/5 times. Glad though becuase I finally found a use for my old Diamond. Hoping I can use this on a senseUI desire rom though soon.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] c0011j:
lol guess i didnt.. I get a message now

'insmod: can't insert 'psfreeom.ko: invalid module format'

When I type in' insmod psfreedom.ko'

I have the PSFreedom archive - BDMV support extracted on my sd card.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] djdafreund:
I'm a little confused. After reading about sony's recent firmware update (blocking u from using anything other then regular game playing unless u update, aka-semi forced) from our normal ps hacking sites, mentioning that the firmware now blocks these method's (usb mods,these,etc.) from being usable, could someone shed a little more light on this? My phone is a touch pro,, and although i don't care much about playing backups(dont want to loose online functions at risk,plus my modded wii and hdd keeps me busy enough), i WOULD love to play emu's and such pouring out, and hoping linux again too. Thanks ahead for any helpful responses.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] c0011j:
As of right now... if you update to 3.42 you will not be able to use this. And if you don't update to 3.42 you will not be able to play online.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] metalheavy:
Do you have s SD card inserted into the htc?
