I agree and disagree. I'm not trying to argue, more intellectually converse here haha

I fully understand sonys position. The idea of people simply renting games, burning them, and playing them off a hard drive is horrible for sony and developers of the games. I fully understand their want to disable this hack.

However, on the other side, I paid sony to OWN a ps3, not to rent one on their terms. (before rolling your eyes read on)

NOW, playstation network is free, and its sonys. So if there were an update that did something like "HEY, we notice your ps3 is jailbroken, please restore before playing online (using OUR service) that would be great. Because yes I agree with their view of people copying the games. HOWEVER, I can pirate movies, music, software, and all other sorts of media right here from my HP laptop. Does HP block downloading ports on my PC to prevent me from obtaining illegal material? No.

So for me, I DO agree with their ideas, but "breaking" MY playstation which I paid money and taxes on to legally obtain myself is where I and I'm sure many people are torn.

So again, sure, block us from your networks, cause hell, we are jailbreaking your product. But don't plug the hole entirely and definitely don't brick my ps :D (I could go on the same rant about sprint and every other android manufacturer out there in terms of plugging our root exploits. Our warranty is void, they are free and clear)

Similiar situation with dualbooting linux on ps3. Again, I paid for the hardware, and it seems sometimes manufacturers don't acknowledge that

Someone posted a file here. I believe they replaced the boot.img in the disable file. So what I do is boot into recovery, flash enable, bootup ps3, recovery, flash disable, reboot, and I'm done. Of course I'm using Quickboot and Fresh 3.2

[EVO 4G Android Development] mccurt29:

But if you're looking to upgrade to a new HD beware of the ps3 screws on the caddy, they suck big time. This required me to buy a new caddy ($12 bucks) in order to install my new hard drive. Best of luck! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] guyver2077:
does that disable flash zip only work for fresh?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Amco:
Unless something changed, most of the other roms hang at boot while fresh goes back into android.
[EVO 4G Android Development] guyver2077:
Right. But I meant was the disable zip file meant only work on fresh? I thought If I flashed it after I was done booting up my ps3.. It would remove the changes made and I wouldnt have to do a nand restore. im on bs 1.7
[EVO 4G Android Development] Amco:
All the enable/disable are the kernel for the ps3 hack. I believe the original disable returns your system back to 2.2, which is why i replaced the boot.img(ssboot.img) in the disable.zip to fresh kernel.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jeff834:
So I flashed my EVO, updated my PS3 to 3.41 since it had been a while since I used it last, and followed all of the instructions to the letter, but it just simply doesn't work for me. The PS3 takes a few extra seconds to load up like it's supposed to but I don't get the extra dev mode options under the game menu. The PS3 works as normal, but no install pkg option or anything. Any idea why that might be the case? Are there models of PS3 that don't work? As far as I can tell from everything I've read I'm doing everything correctly, just no go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tiffany84:
So does this backup games to the ps3 internal hard drive? And can I use a usb flash drive to install the right firmware, 3. 41 I think it is and also use it to install a backup manager? Thanks to anyone that can help me with this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gerald410:
yes that is correct
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tiffany84:
Can someone that has had to update the firmware on there ps3 please help me? I downloaded the update, placed on a flash drive and followed all the instructions but when it searches the flash drive it doesnt find anything. Please HELP.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jeff834:
What folder did you put the update in on the flash drive? it has to be in PS3/UPDATE all in caps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tiffany84:
I made a folder called PS3 and made a folder inside it called UPDATE and then I placed the update inside it. The download was a .rar file so I changed the name to PS3UPDAT.PUP, is that not right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jeff834:
A rar file is an archive like a zip file you have to extract what's inside it using winrar. Most likely the .pup file will be inside there and that's what you need to put on the flash drive.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tiffany84:
Ok. What is winrar and where do i get it? Thanks for your help by the way.

Winrar Alternatives...

For others that might not like WinRAR:

I've been using 7Zip for years now and actually like it better than WinRAR. Just an alternative to the norm, if you will.

For those having troubles getting the jailbreak to work:

The first couple of times that I did this, I had to try at least three times to get it to show the dev options (under game). Ever since I booted with it the second time, I've had no other issues. Also, you don't need to reboot the phone to try and boot the PS3 again. As long as your phone is on, it will inject the code properly every time, it's just down to a timing issue, that's why you might have to try and try again, so-to-speak.

Here is a tested and working psfreedom disable for Baked Snack 1.7 users.

Pull the battery and reboot you phone back into recovery to flash my file.

Returns your phone back to original working state so you dont need to nandroid backup/restore everytime. This file uses the default kernel found in BS 1.7.

can you create one of these for fresh 3.2.0.0 would be much appreciated :)....

also i'm upgrading my hard drive on my ps3 and wanted to know which one do you guys recommend i hear seagate is the best but the westinghouse (if i spelled it right is cheaper) also i read that 5200 and 7200 rpm doesn't make a difference but with this stuff it seems like it would make a difference. Can someone chime in please and thank you

After having issues hacking my ps3 with a stock rooted 2.2 rom I flashed over to Fresh. I was able flash from fresh to ps3 freedom and hack my ps3. I am also unable to use my WiFi, 4g, or tether. I would suspect the kernel isn't intended run all the Evo's features.

yea no one reads. i would stop answering them my theory if you arent smart enough to get this working by following the directions you probably shouldnt be doing it. A lot of these people are probably the same people who are going to get online and cause issues in the future because they dont read and dont have a clue what they are doing and just dont care to actually learn. they just want to download games and play them regardless of the risk. Many of them will likely be posting thread after thread when they get banned by sony complaining as well because they went online.

i'm having the same issues as the gent above but here are my specifics. Now before I go on I have read the entire thread lol but theres a question that was not ask(i will ask at the end). anyway, I have just rooted my phone using the new unrevoked3 method (one click method) that came out 2 days ago. This installed clockwork on my evo and I have the stock rom, no changes just full root. I added the files to my sd card as a zip and then cleared the cache and dalvik and even wiped the phone clean (after doing a backup of course) before flashing the zip. As said before, when booted my phone lingers on the white boot screen. I hit the switch off on my ps3, turn it on stand by, plug in the phone and do the drumroll with my finger...... and get the blank screen for about 10 seconds but when it finally boots I don't get the added files.... what am I doing wrong? I think it might be due to one of 2 things. Maybe due to clockwork eff-ing something up or me not using a custom rom first before the flash.

my ps3 is on 3.41, my phone is on froyo 2.2 with kernel 2.6.32.15. Is there anything i'm missing or haven't tried? Also when I did this, there was a game already in my PS3 so it ejected it when I did the drumroll

Thanks

i'm playing all my games from my internal 500gb hardrive. i have about 8 games now and also have transfered games from my pc to ps3 using ps3ftp (easiest thing in the world) i tranfered heavy rain yesterday which was around 24gb and only took like 1 hour.

Using the Evo to do this is very easy and please do not follow this tutorial about nandroid backup and nandroid restore cause is gonna take you forever. Everytime i turn on my ps3 i hack it and get my phone back on service in 2 minute process.

How to verify flash has been done?

Hi all, how can i verify that the flash was successful?

i was able to do it last week but now cant seem to redo hack on ps3

so was wondering if there is a way to tell the flash was properly done?

thanks for any help

i used the file at beginning of post

enable-psfreedom-Evo4G_BDVD.zip

I have evo 4g with android 2.2

i use Fresh evo 3.2.0.0

kernal is 2.6.32.15-g3a8614e htc kernel@and18-2 #7

software number = 3.28.651.1

any ideas?

thanks

Bill

edit: oopps just realized the kernel is different... i hope that means its flashed but still cant get the hack to work on ps3 after i sucesfully did the hack last week... has not been online...
[EVO 4G Android Development] dis_dj_sin:
ok i just got it to work. I think the problem is(for some) everyone is not made aware that you have to be on a custom rom first. At least in my situation.. I was able to root my phone but did not have a rooted 2.2 image to flash. this meant I still had the original layout and settings and preferences since before I rooted my phone but just added superuser to my menu.

What I did today was flashed my rom to Burnt-Droid-1.1-netarchy and then flashed my kernal to netarchy-toastmod-4.1.8-cfs. I restarted my phone to it allowed the changes to set in..then i went back into recovery and flashed the enable freedom file. then did everything in my original post but this time it finally showed up.

I hope this helps some people. Look into changing your rom and then flash the enable freedom over the custom rom of your choice. I do not think it works on the original rooted froyo 2.2

I can vouch for the board and say it works great. OP is giving these things away for an awesome price! Now I just wish we had NTFS support for backup manager.

Can we get a payload update for no disc needed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] eduardmc:
i read that is not stable, alot of games are crashing and causing black screen. stick with back up manager #1 for now until it becomes stable. i really don't mine having a disk in cause i never remove it so is like i don't really have to place a disk at all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sidezero:
From what I read the instability was due to the HEX values for the compiled versions people were using. There was a release for a bunch of boards by some dude named evil which is the one that had problems.

Looks like Amon wrote a custom recovery for PSFreedom for the G1 which someone else also ported to the N1. Hopefully it'll get ported to the Evo as well.

Hi All,

I've been trying to get this working for a few days now but nothing I do seems to work.

I've read the entire post to make sure i didn't miss anything.

I manually updated my PS3 firmware to 3.41

I rooted my evo using this guide: [GUIDE] How to root Android 2.2 on the EVO 4G in this forum.

I use Amon_RA's recovery to flash the zip file from the first post.

Just a update.

Thought i could run Fresh 3.2.0.0 with the psfreedom hack cause i dont use 4g or wifi but.....

The hack also causes no disk storage. Your phone will not hook up to pc or ps3 as disk storage.. it will unmount the sd card. Also i could not recieve pics via mms while on the hack.. so i had to nandroid back to Fresh with no psfreedom hack..
[EVO 4G Android Development] r.storm85:
I also had this problem. I had to flash Fresh Rom 3.2.0.0. Nandroid this rom. Then flash the psfreedom hack over that rom. Then it worked. I also did a nandroid of fresh with the psfreedom hack so i can switch back and forth. Cause with fresh with ps3 hack your 4g, wifi, pic mail via mms, and disk storage via pc doesnt work. Also when you turn on the ps3 when you hit the eject if you get the two beeps you didnt press eject fast enough. If you did it right you hear no beeps when you press eject.
