So, if we're having to do an insmod then the psfreedom stuff is just modules. Couldn't someone just compile the mod for the popular kernels? Then we wouldn't even have to flash, it would just require you to place the modules in the correct location and insmod when we want to boot, then rmmod after.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chuckhriczko:
No because the kernel needs to be custom. We needed to remove USB support from the kernel to allow for this hack to work.

I flashed the rom with backup enabled and it works great. It broke wifi but no big deal and it works flawlessly on the ps3.

Upon flashing the disable, USB came back but wifi still says error. Is that normal?

You have to reflash your original kernel. If you check settings-about software it probably still has the drmon kernel.

Sorry for responding so late .. :)

From what I can tell from reading various posts and rants, Someone managed to get hermes v4 to work with an other version of psfmod for the desire. I do not think it has anything to do with out phones. I think someone just needs to port hermes v4 over to our recovery method.

Can't wait to hack my PS3 with my evo! I refused to pay 150 for the original usb device when it first surfaced. Plus due to sony suing those distributors a lot of folks paid and haven't received the device. Can't wait to see the home brew choices coming out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
yea i am back and forth as well. I am confident sony will block multiplayer very quickly since they already have a new firmware out that suppossedly blocks this.

While i play a lot of single player games there are a few ps3 exclusive games i would miss online play for (killzone 3 is coming soon!). I am interested to see now since the first break through was made if they can keep up and continue to break new firmware updates or if after all this time sony fixed the "bug" allowing this to work and will result in a long time before it happens again.

the PS3 online experiance and software may not look as nice as the xbox but you ahve to admit they made some solid programing code. it took this long for the first true "hack" to get out while the 360 has been hacked for years.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
As i think about this i am more and more leery of it. Microsoft bans a large percentage of the modded consoles every november (they get a nice boost in holiday sales every year from it last year was over a million consoles). Not only do they ban the console from live they mess up your harddrive and saved games preventing you from using the saved games on a non banned xbox whether or not the game was legit. With xbox it isnt that bad because if yuo do get banned and dont care to much about saves (or manage to get the program to recover them to work) you can buy a used one for 130$ or a new arcade for 200$ and be good for another year.

With playstation the price goes up significantly to replace it if they can or decide to use a similar practice. I think i am going to wait a while and see how everything plays out. even if you only use homebrew if it results in a banned ps3 that cant play online along with other issues it may not be worth the risk for me. just too expensive to have to replace until we know more on how sony is going to handle things.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amw1972:
i'll give this thread a bump....love to give it a whirl IF and WHEN its available!!!

I won't pay for it...since the whole point about jailbreaking is unlocking the potential of the devices...its about freedom...and if someone is asking me to pay a premium for that freedom...then they've got issues. I'll be willing to donate...BUT not told that I HAVE to pay x amount of dollars.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpuffin:
yeah it's nice to be free but think about it this way you spend 4000 hours of your own time developing something like this and you get nothing out of it besides satisfaction of it working
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
also hacking a game console is not quiet the same as jailbraking a phone. while there is a homebrew community normally and some great stuff comes out of it the main reason people hack game console's is to play games from the HD or burnt dvds. this lets them download games and play them or rent etc instead of having to buy them.

In this case even if you have to buy equipment to do it or pay for the program 1 game is 60$~ so even the what i thought was extremely high price of the original at 150$ is only 2.5 games.

now i dont advocate downloading games with out having purchased them you can see how even paying for the ability to do this for many will quickly pay for itself. The downside is the multiplayer which some people dont care about (until a game comes out that they really want to play online) and if they manage to get this working with new firmwares (a big if since it took this long) what sony will do if they manage to get around the multiplayer problem (ala xbox 360).

overall a small fee to me isnt a big deal as i dont consider this comparable to rooting a phone for example, however as i said before i am going to wait and see what sony has up its sleeve before i do this PS#s are a lot more expensive to replace then an xbox. Plus with how easy this seems to be to get the hack working (vs some comparably difficult xbox 360 work arounds) i think a lot more people are going to jump onto this with out knowing the consequences.

I agree with this 100% HOWEVER. Considering the amount of power the ps3 has there can be some amazing things done with a hacked ps3. The sheer processing power that this thing can pull out is amazing and with unrestricted use of the 6 cell processors in it smaller companies/colleges/hacker groups can make great use of them for the price tag.

its not all about pirating software, although i wont say thats its biggest draw to the general public.

I completely agree. the problem is a large majority are going to if they can. with the relative ease it appears actually preforming the hack to PS3 is now that it has been done anyone who wants to can do it and we all know how easy it is to still get online currently. (vs xbox where you have to be willing to take the unit apart etc) while i am sure a lot of the people who might want to do this will update firmware and block it with out knowing almost every tech forum i have been on is running rampant with ps3 "jailbreak" information Many are going to play online and since they are i expect sony to take a similar stance that microsoft did.

I wouldn't be surprised if this gets to out of hand (which it could) if sony pulled similar tricks such as making a new "wave" that would require you to update the firmware to play the game (much as microsoft does on dashboard updates) forcing you to update your software and negate the ability (and possibly the hack itself) to be able to play these games.

For me there is just to much unknown with how sony will handle it. they didnt really do anything with PSP hacks so who knows. I am just saying people should be aware that this could very well result in having to buy a new playstation and that they should be cautious. I am sure the ones who will listen already know this and the rest ... well we all saw what happened when froyo was released.
