Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Hi all! Today i purchased N900 and im completely new/noob on this phone and i don`t understand tut in the 1st post so can anyone PLEASE tell me the easiest method to get this to work?

P.S - Do i need Linux to transfer files to this phone or can i do it on windows xp? Can i just connect n900 and PC with USB and transfer the files?

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

The part you quoted is for the n900 PSFreedom GUI application.
I did not provide any instructions for the n800.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Yes, 3,42 does not work.

The first post is the easiest method. Clarify what you don understand. so we can help you.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

1. do i need to use WINSpc?(I dont have wireless network in my home)
2. Can it be done on Windows XP 32bit?(i mean transferring the files)
3. Do i need internet on N900 and does metter if i have 3gp or i need something else?(can i download this GUI app to PC and transfer it to N900 via USB?)
4. Can you explain me how to transfer files from PC > N900 and how to use xTerminal more detailed?

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

If you had it working on fw 3.41, did the jb put a stop to the forced updates?

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

1. WinSCP makes things easier. But if you don't have wifi at home then we'll have to do it another way.
2. Yes
3. Getting the PSFreedom GUI application version to install on your N900 without the n900 itself being connected will be troublesome. PSFreedom-GUI depends on other packages also. So you'll have to pin point and download those. troublesome. specially on 3G.

4. Looking at your situation. Here is what I think you should do:

1,
Root your N900. (Give yourself super admin privileges)
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/rootsh/

When you click on the download link. You get an .install file. Transfer that to your N900. You can do that over USB. Just plug in your N900 to your Windows PC. It'll show up. Place the file anywhere there.

Unplug your N900 from your PC. (You have to do this, so don't get trouble in the next step)

On the N900, using the file manager, go to that place you put the file. Click on it. Application Manager will pick it up and try to install it. You need to be connected over 3G. It's a tiny package. so it should take a few seconds.

Close Application Manager and File Manager.

2.
Plug back your N900 to your PC. Now transfer the 3 PSFreedom Files from my first post (USB). (2 .sh and 1 .ko). to the N900.

3.
Launch the Terminal on your n900. Type:
Now we need to navigate to the place you put the 3 files. What usually shows up on windows when you plug the N900 is MyDocs....so.... in the Terminal on the n900 (Case Sensitive):
To know whats currently in that directory. Type:
4.
Finally once you confirm you're at the place where the 3 files are. Type:

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

It doesn't really stop updates. Updates always require the permission of the user at some point. Whether cause a game wants to do it or the PS3 connected to PSN found an update.

If you want to play online. You have to update. If a super new game requires an update to work. You have to update. Nothing the JB can do. at this point.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Does anyone know how I can put games on the internal hd? For backups with bigger files then 4gb..

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

When backup manager says "do you wanna backup on external?" say "no". It'll say "do you wanna backup on internal?" say "yes".

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

never mind, the problem was that crappy stealth manager.. I'm using normal backup manager now.
Which backup manager is the best to use atm? Is there a difference at all between them?

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

not strictly true. if say. C.O.D black ops comes bundled with f/w3.42. you can back it up to external drive. read files on pc. delete update folder. job done jb to the rescue

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Theoretically, that is sound. but has anyone tried? perhaps there is a protection that stops the game from booting altogether if a file was missing.

Why does backup manager, copy everything?

I'd love to be wrong. :p

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To
 

thanx got it all working just fine now :D;):cool:

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Got this working fine but.....

I fancy installing the GUI. Will this replace these files that are patched to make the backup loader work?

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

there is everything in instruction, but if you are lazy just to read before asking i'll repeat.

you need to download the patched module (*.ko) for default kernel and put it in /opt/psfreedom/modules/omap1 or patched module for power-user and put it in /opt/psfreedom/modules/power40 . it depends on what kernel u use (check it with uname -r). the more detailed instruction and links for everything in the first post.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To
 

umm NO. Read again. I said the PS3 won't detecting Jailbraking after update. does it meant it still working to you? LOL

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Man, tnx so much for your time and little tut, but i have 1 prob:

I transferred 3 files you mentioned to my N900 - I plugged USB to my PC, on N900 click on mass storage mode, PC detects N900 and i just copied files there(My letter in windows for N900 is X, so i just copied files to X\: and now when i type: N900 says: I didnt understand this part, how can i find the 3 files i transferred to my N900?

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

well great for you guys, but how are you guys planning to play online? In a while all games will have a encrypted key in the disc wich allows players with legal games to play online on their account.

A PS3 without being able to play online is like a ferrari without an engine. It sucks bigtime.

I'll just buy games and support the devellopers instead.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Valid points. It's a choice really.

On the other hand, there are some people like me. I don play online much if at all. Lack of time and most of my bandwidth is consumed already by constant downloading, so no room for online gaming.

I will continue to buy games that I like. FF versus XIII and Last Guardian for instance. These will demand an update killing the jailbreak.

Until then, I can enjoy the convenience of not having to switch blurays, faster loading times, lending games to friends who otherwise cannot buy them.

Sony already made piracy difficult with bluray. I cannot imagine many people being able to download 40gb of Killzone easily.

The world is not black or white. There are many shades of gray.

ahh got it now, you should really say "PS3 won't detect jailbreak/PS3 won't be detecting jailbreak"

Anyway for some reason the dns trick doesn't work for me anymore after I formatted the HD, does it stil work for you?

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

SONY blocked the D.N.S server method. it doesnt work for anyone anymore

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

it was predictable ... :D

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

yeah. the only online access i really wont is the ability to sync trophies with the server. i hope they figure that out. but i suppose it will be blocked after a day or so. once word spreads............................

Hi, sorry for being newbie. I searched the forms but could not find the source code or the instructions to modify psfreedom to patch for backup manger. Please take it easy on me, I am a newbie.

Corso85 - I saw a lot of post asking for the patched file to run on the n810. Can you help me with this or point me in the right direction? With your help, I can modify the source code to psfreedom 1.0 and release a version for the n800/n810.

Thanks,

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

This software allows you to use the hardware in many ways, including but not limited to running pirated software.

If I understand correct it also allows you to make full usage of the hardware, running an OS you prefer. Sony's Linux couldn't access all cores. Besides, this support was removed, while previously was advertised for.

i have a 360 for playing online. far superior.

currently my playstation is like an empty shoe box.

psfreedom puts some shoes in it!

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

just saying the word "homebrew" makes you think "piracy" these days.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Well all say what you want. but 99% of all the people will use it to play pirated games even if they say they dont.

I hope sony bans you guys asses from their online services.

There was a damn good reason why the cores were blocked from usage. People enabling CPU cores that shouldnt have and burning down their PS3's shouldnt whine afterwards.

Most PS3's right now allready are on the edge of overheating in some games. wonder how it would go if you enable the locked CPU's

A friend of mine forgot to open the door to the case where the PS3 was in when he played a game. His PS3 was overheated and now always blows at max when he fires it up. A device this weak for heat will sure as hell burn down when you fire up more CPU's

Not even thinking about the morrons going to overclock their PS3's.

Well good luck with all that. You guys are ruining the whole industry with this pirated $hit!

Not to forget the god damn cheaters hacking their games to be uber users online now!!! thanks allot! PS3 was the only pretty safe place to play fair games.

In a few weeks the first hacked firmware updates will come and after that you unleashed hell on yourselfs and us. thanks for ruining it to all the fair customers!

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

im sorry but i have to disagree with those comments.

how are people using custom o/s's ruining it for you running f/ 3.42 playing online happily????

the 360 was hacked years ago. and more every day!!
the nintendo ds. hacked to pieces
the wii hacked to death!!!

but still make more money per year than you can imagine.


why would Sony ban you from the PSN??? they did it when the released a newer firmware and blocked the DNS trick! if you cant sign in they cant ban you period.

i use my ps3 every day and would never risk anything happening to it. yes im running f/w 3.42.

my jailbroke ps3 is upstairs but shhhhh dont tell sony!

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Ah. I see.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

the disabled cores are about yield, not heat. unlike the 360 the ps3 is very well built, it does not have heat problems. I agree that pirates can ruin the industry no matter how people want to spin piracy. It's usually dependent on how easy it is to do, IMO sony should enable Other OS again so that the people talking about homebrew are happy while pirates would have to open their ps3s for that exploit anyway.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

Yes.

You pulled that number out of your arse.

Why?

They're used by PS3 in games; why not allow them to be used when using say MythTV?

That is a design mistake.

What a dumb****.

Overclocking is something entirely different.

Thank you for your kindness.

Knives can be used to cut meat (animal or human meat), and guns can be used by criminals or police.

That was possible anyway.

Yeah, thanks to the console market, we PC gamers are getting your culture habits, including the lack of mods and dedicated servers.

You don't see knives or guns banned because they can be used for Bad Things (tm), do you?

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

when i brought my ps3 on release day. it boasted a lot of things that over the past couple of years have been removed!! thats theft!! plain and simple.

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

(a small bit of topic)
First of piracy is not ok its illigal.
That being said one really has to wonder about all the companys
wining about piracy when they can afford to pay an actor INSANE
amounts. I read somwhere that Johnny Depp was offered around 60m us dollars for the next pirates movie. Clearly the movie industry is making money still or they couldnt afford that.

Valve made a test on steam, lowering 1 games price to half.
They sold so much more copys that they still earned a lot of cash.

Big companys are so greedy that they cant se that lowering prices is the way to fight piracy. What normal person can afford to buy 10 Blue ray discs att full price a month or 2 games.

Anyone know how to put backup manager on root folder????? I have copied backup manager directly to my usb but when i insert it in PS3 it wont run. No installation file ERROR occurs. Anyone can help me plz............:confused::confused::confused:

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

i agree with the above post. these companys have been robbing us for years! i paid £45 for super mario 3 on the NES when it was released. and i pay the same for a ps3 game today!! and lets not forget its not down to HACKERS that piracy is a problem. they provided a tool to backup your media to a hdd in order to save the lifespan of a very badly built BRdrive. something that of course should be availible? it is on the 360. and the pc. its the PEOPLE that abuse the tools that cause a problem. and the internet only makes things worse. p2p and such. maybe soon sony will remove the XMB from its firmware. and in 3 years time release it again and charge X-amount for it!! i refer to this article here

money grabbing mo foes

Re: N900 PS3 Jailbreak Detailed How-To [Updated-GUI]
 

just drag it to the root directory of your usb drive. no subfolders just the .pkg not in anyfolders.
