PS Jailbreak USB Stick

Post by darthmunky »

http://www.ps3breakstore.com/ps-jailbre ... r-ps3.html

Does anyone have it? I'm thinking about getting it but I have a few concerns. Will it effect my ability to play online/use the PS Store and is the software uninstall-able?

pretty sure that keeps you on firmware 3.55 or older, which means that you will not be going online or using the PS Store....

this is the reason I have 2 ps3s, one is jailbroken and doesn't go online, the other is kept up to date and still go online if I want to (which I never do anyway)

Yeah I never play online with my PS3 but if there's ever a PS Store exclusive, I don't want to miss out. So, how exactly does this thing work? I was under the impression that once you unplug it, your PS3 is normal again.

You can jail break a PS3 with a regular usb flash drive. No need to buy anything special.
Just google it.
The console will be stuck on 3.55 firmware till something new gets released.

Is there any way to uninstall it though so I can do the system updates if I wish?

oh yeah, with any jailbreak you're always an accidental button press away from updating your PS3 to the latest stock and unhackable firmware ;)

better get it soon before that site gets shut down they are selling games on hard drives no way they dont go down soon.

If your PS3 is already updated with firm ware past what the jail break does can you delete the update and bring it back to and older setting?

I'm sure if you did a system update and bricked it, the jailbreak team would come up with a firmware update for the USB stick at some point. Would jailbreaking my PS3 this affect games at all? What if a game needs an update? Would that brick the system?
