after i boot the exploit for ps3, when i go to game xmb, install package folder, its empty, do i have to create a folder and put a file somewhere?

TIA
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Ibocan-power:
No you need an normal usb and copy de manager.pkg in the usb and plug it in the ps3 and then you can install it .
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] dawen:
does it have to be in a folder in the usb flash drive or just root directory?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jeffwang:
thx for that, i had my device hard SLP'ed and follow the instruction step by step. unfortunately, still no luck. does everyone all have his mobile hard SPL'ed to get the job done?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Jim P:
Well by Hard SPLing your xperia you can change the ****ty winmo 6.1 operating system and cook some wonderful 6.5 roms that are been developed here in xda comunity.

So, you kind of HAVE TO, in order to make your xperia phone a hugely better one ;)

@ dawen

Dude at the root, place your .pkg file at the root...

Is there a way to have virtual keyboard in the terminal emulator ? I can't find the good key on my x1... And my keyboard is dead...
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] 0b3l1x:
Almost worked for me... one day.

Yesterday, when trying to repeat the same steps, the PS3 started hacked as usual, but when i tried to run the installed packages (ftp and BM), none of them worked (an error ocurred when runing.... 80029**)

The exploit seems to run properly as i installed another BM, but none of the runs now..

Any idea?

i have 2 ps3's in the house one booted into debug in 3-4 try's

the other i tried 20+ times still havent got it to work???? do i have to restart android after one ps3 has been booted??????

i dont think it would have to be restarted??
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Magarusu:
I tried neopeek's froyo and it seems to work a little better, guess it's because the greater speed it has, from what i've seen tremere's build has a bit of lag and it may interfere with the hack to start up in time for it to work, maybe that's because we need so many retries.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] 4218kris:
i finally got it to work once again i switched it off in back the switched it on pressed power then eject, all 3 buttons as fast as i could.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] jeffwang:
everything been sorted now. its all about timing actually. you have to press power button immediately after u swithed on ur ps3 from back( old thick version) and just wait about .5 sec before you press the disc eject button. and if you no luck from usb slot 1, try the other ones. you can boot ur ps3 with psfreedom from any usb slots. hope it may helps

Fatsals android works great - Froyo won't start on Xperia X1

Because I wasn't able to run Froyo on my X1 I've tried fatsals. It works great.

My sugestions.

1. Format SDcard to FAT not FAT32 (I've checked this twice on two SDcards)

2. Extract fatsal to the root of the SDcard not to any folder andboot or android.

3. Run haret.exe then reboot and overwrite modules, zImage and insert psfreedom.ko then run haret.exe again, connected with Activesync.

4. Under android run Terminal Emulator and type instructions:

su [enter]

cd /sdcard [enter]

insmod psfreedom.ko

I think it is a matter of formating the SDcard. On FAT it works everytime. On FAT32 I've got "an unkwon USB device is connected".

As I wrote. I couldn't run Froyo XDAndroid on my X1. I think it goes about proper startup.txt for haret because when I use Blacstone startup.txt it runs and holds on "Waiting for SDcard" message. If anyone could write a step by step how to run froyo on X1 I would be greatfull. I have read all threads about it but without success.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] 4218kris:
i get the unknow usb device alot too its because the timming is wierd.. but it does work after a couple try's.. maybe it runs faster on fat not fat32?? so it helps the timming??
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] sotioa:
I just want to confirm that insmod is running, so I type 'lsmod' at the # symbol and alll I get is the following:

BusyBox v1.15.2 (2009-10-25 02:53:01 CET) multi-call binary

Usage: insmod [-knqrsv] MODULE [symbol=value...]

Options

-n

-q

-r

SO DOES IT WORK OR NOT?

Can you post source code for zImage from psfreedom_bdvd.rar. Really need this ti recompile the kernel for my phone
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] tureka:
Sorry!!!

I've taken the Terminal Emulator - term.apk from XDAndroid because fatsal doesn't have one.

Still can't even run Froyo on my X1!!! Dam..!!!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] lorddusk:
Do it like me,

i got froyo running this way ;

Fatsal to sd

boot

Psfreedom to sd ( overwrite zimage and modules )

boot

Froyo to sd ( overwrite all except zimage and modules )

boot and have fun
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] hungphi:
I've noticed that you don't need to connect on a PC (Active Sync) first when you are starting Xandroid on your X1.

What I did is the following:

- Turn the X1 on, let it boot with WM.

- Turn the PS3 on and connect the X1 to the PS3. PS3 will say shortly "unknown device", so I know that the X1 connected

- Start haret to start XAndroid

- When XAndroid is started, you can turn off the PS3 and remove the power cable of it.

- Start Terminal and type the commands

- Plug the power cable in and do the boot up/jailbreak thing

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you need to connect your X1 to any USB port to let the X1 know that it's connected and when booting XAndroid it will load the USB drivers.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] sotioa:
So you did not use Active sync at all, and it works?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] hungphi:
yup, I didn't use Active Sync and it works fine. Sometimes I need to unplug/plugin the power cord of the PS3 and boot the PS3 again with Power/Eject buttons without restarting the X1, but that is a known issue....
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] sotioa:
So you use the files fatsal-xperoid-20100221.7z and

xperia-xdandroid-20100821.7z?

In terminal when you give the cmd insmod what do you get?

Did you use the active sync at all?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] lorddusk:
when i do insmod i get nothing just a new # line

( when i try another insmod it says, couldnt insert psfreedom.ko file already exists )

and yes i use active sync

Confirmed working!

Please Help.

No ways , to unlock a virtual keyboard in the terminal emulator ?

I can't type anything , my physical keyboard is broken...
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Jim P:
Yeah, it seems strange that there is no virtual keyboard in the terminal, unfortunatelly most of us are simple users not developers or hackerz:p so you must ask this question in a more appropriate thread..

BTW, why you dont fix your phone? does it cost too much to fix the keyboard?

Yes i can confirm that the shortest the cable is, the more chances of success you got.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] deank:
PS Freedom 1.1

Is there a chance to get the updated psfreedom.ko with syscalls PEEK/POKE functionality?

It is just few bytes changed in the .hex to enable these two functions, but I can't compile the module (.ko) myself.

Any help will be appreciated!

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Capn Chaos:
Thx for the great guide, worked first time with my ps3 slim, even with a 1 meter cable( I do not have any shorter )

Would love to see this release being updated with the new features.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] vosman:
i followed walkthrough and sure everything is right,but still got "unknow usb device",and i typed command lsmod got

psfreedom 28024 0 -Live 0xbf000000 (p)

is this mean psfreedom.ko succeed or failure loaded?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] deank:
It means you did everything right. If you're running firmware 3.41 then the only thing left is to keep trying. Power-off, power-on, 'power-button', 'eject-button'.

Sometimes it takes 1 try, sometimes it takes 20 to make it work.

I manage to run F1 2010 with hermes V3 support.

first extract attached file in root of your SD card and copy psfreedom.ko from andboot to root of your sd card.

Also make folder proc→psfreedom→payload on your SD card and copy attached file in payload folder.

Follow guide from first post until you reach step android fully boots.

Then in market place download terminal emulator.

This is needed for virtual keyboard.

The type

su

Enter

insmod /sdcard/psfreedom.ko

Enter

cat /sdcard/payload_hermesV3.bin > /proc/psfreedom/payload

Run The PS3 and with open manager run game with controller support

Sorry for bad english i type this in rush
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] armorsnake:
Thank You very much, but can anybody confirm its work?

Can I insert payload_hermesV3.bin to the root on my sdcard or it is required /proc/psfreedom/payload ??
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] zackoj:
i didn`t try without hermesV3.bin in /proc/psfreedom/payload.

I put it in root of SD card and /proc/psfreedom/payload

Thanks zackoj !!!

It works perfectly (i try it with NBA2K)

Also it give me access to PS3_GAME (playing game w/o disc inside)

But I have one question:

command: cat /sdcard/payload_hermesV3.bin > /proc/psfreedom/payload

It Always needed to given? (after a restart of device) or only insmod psfreedom?

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Sedy-Emkill:
hey guys!

don't know, but terminal emulator doesn't seems to work at my xperia...

if i use the original terminal of android, i can use psfreedom ( sometime it works on ps3 , or "unknown usb device"), but the ps3 knows that there is something^^

if i use the terminal emulator, and type the commands for hermes and psfreedom out of this thread, my ps3 doesn't recognize anything... it still dont work after 15 trys or more, and there i no info like the "unknown usb device".

i thought my ps3 system is broken, and i used the recovery menue to fix it, but after this it still doesn't work.

i tried the old psfreedom commands on original terminal -> works.. so i think the terminal emulator must be the problem!

today i will search another terminal emulator... maybe there are few versions...

does anyone have the same problem?

android works normally ...

hope everybody understand MY english:D

thx
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Morpheus24:
I confirm that it's working for HTC wildfire. I'm using recovery image made by alphezain, you can look for it at psfreedom wildfire wiki.

So I don't really need to type any commands in my terminal or have my phone fully booted. I just go to recovery mode, then to load custom payload, point to folder /proc/psfreedom/payload/ and load hermesV3.bin file.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] zackoj:
New hermes V4b attached

also filename is payload.bin so change command of filename

Edit:

EASPORTS MMA works

Hi!

if any way to copy the files /proc/psfreedom from my X1 to another android, like my X10mini ??

I managed to pull the files "payload", "psfreedom", "shellcode" from /proc/psfreedom (X1) with wireless ADB, but i can't pushing this files to /proc/ (x10mini)

Any chance??
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] nobloat:
For those who can't get the virtual keyboard working due to the unclear descriptions given here.

Download the android emulator from the android market (you need THIS one, not the one that comes pre-installed with ANDROID and which can be found under DEV tools).

Once downloaded, launch the emulator and press the top left rectangular silver button (the one above the phone button). This will open up the emulator's menu, which contains the soft keyboard toggle. Press it.

Please note that the soft keyboard does NOT work in landscape mode, so you will have to collapse your real keyboard.

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] foxvengeor:
To have the hermes V4B posted payload we must do the Cat command every time to /proc after insmod psfreedom.ko ?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Ecniv_FR:
Isn`t there a program that we can create so we don`t have to acces these files each time and again??

I mean like creating a .bat file (Don`t know what that is called in Android)

is there a program you can write this kind of code with??
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] deank:
To minimize the typing one can copy these two files while in winMo (or android):

psfreedom.ko and payload.bin to the sdcard and name them as

p.ko and h4b

Then you'll have to type only:

su

cd sdcard

insmod p.ko

cat h4b>/proc/psfreedom/payload

I tried to create a 'batch' file, but for some reason it won't accept the paths correctly...
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] tunataylan:
To Automate the writing process.

Create a directory called "conf" in your android folder. (ex: andboot/conf)

Open Notepad, Paste the stuff below

custom_shells{

rm -f /sdcard/fsck*.rec

echo ""

echo ""

echo "*************************************"

echo "*************************************"

echo "******D i s c o n n e c t ****** U S B ******"

echo "*************************************"

echo "*************************************"

echo ""

echo ""

sleep 3

insmod /sdcard/andboot/psfreedom.ko

sleep 2

echo "**********************************"

echo "**********************************"

echo "********P a y l o a d ****************"

echo "**********************************"

echo "**********************************"

cat /sdcard/andboot/payload.bin > /proc/psfreedom/payload

}

Save it as froyo.user.conf in the folder you created before. (andboot/conf)

Note: I am attaching my config. As you can see, my Xdandroid is in ANDBOOT folder. if you have Android files in the Root of SD card, you should remove the "/andboot" from the codes.

Note2: payload.bin is the Hermes payloads you download from the other posts. Rename it to payload.bin or rename the codes. Anyway, I think you got it :)

Note3: I HAVEN'T TESTED THIS BUT IT SHOULD WORK. The file works like autoexec.bat as you guys asked for.

I tried it now and I confirm that it works.

I think the old android that is posted here doesn't support the user config files, so try to update your Android but keep the module , psfreedom and zimage from the package.

I use system-FRX02.ext2.

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] foxvengeor:
Have you solved the "unknown usb device" error ?

I need 5-15 tries to jailbreak...

But I'm very quick to press eject. Is it because of cable too long? I have the usb cable black origin. I saw someone who said that it worked better with an adapter.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Sedy-Emkill:
i bought an adapter and it always works on first try ... i think its cheap and very usefull...
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Ecniv_FR:
I just use the original cable and got no problems with it most of the time @ first try 2nd @ most so but what I have found out is that you must wait to plug it in untill your ps is without power...

Hope that it helps...
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] foxvengeor:
We must wait to plug what ? Plug the X1 only the PS is without power it's what you said?

And do you use the PL3 or the Hermes v4?

yup that`s what I mean... It seems that it otherwise still jam`s the hack..

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] brampower:
Hey guys,

Is there a way to downgrade my PS3 from 3.50 back to 3.41 and then spoof 3.50 (isn't that payload v4?) with my X1?

I also have an HD2, if it helps.

Thanks in advance!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Ecniv_FR:
Zie dat je nederlands bent dus doe het ff zo voor je, op het moment kan wat jij zegt wel wel maar zou als onlogisch worden gezien omdat de downgrade nog niet5 voor de psgroove beschikbaar is alleen voor de commerciële sticks...

Je hebt hier dus 2 opties:

1) koop de officiële ps3 jailbreak en gebruik deze om te downgraden waarna je hem weer met de hermes v4b kan spoofen...

2) wacht nog ± een maand (denk niet dat het nog veel langer duurt) en gebruik dan idd gewoon je xperia om hem te downgraden...

Veel succes!!
