    PS3 - Officially Hacked

    I have read/write access to the entire system memory, and HV level access to the processor. In other words, I have hacked the PS3. The rest is just software. And reversing. I have a lot of reversing ahead of me, as I now have dumps of LV0 and LV1. I've also dumped the NAND without removing it or a modchip.

    3 years, 2 months, 11 days...thats a pretty secure system

    Took 5 weeks, 3 in Boston, 2 here, very simple hardware cleverly applied, and some not so simple software.

    Shout out to George Kharrat from iPhoneMod Brasil for giving me this PS3 a year and a half ago to hack. Sorry it took me so long

    As far as the exploit goes, I'm not revealing it yet. The theory isn't really patchable, but they can make implementations much harder. Also, for obvious reasons I can't post dumps. I'm hoping to find the decryption keys and post them, but they may be embedded in hardware. Hopefully keys are setup like the iPhone's KBAG.

    A lot more to come...follow @geohot on twitter
    so geohot has finally hacked the ps3!!

    good news for those who wnt to hack theres

    sadly my 60gb died

    Maybe this makes it possible to run (only legal!) games from usb drives and maybe better from network drives The system is fast enough for it...
    Unfortunately i have zer0 dev skills, but once the hack is released i'm sure the real devs will welcome it
    Thanx to D_A aka Team M33 (for keeping the scene alive)

    So this means like 3-5 months before any practical use ?
    I would love to play my PS2 games via HDD.... I 'll keep buying my PS3 games, because I have zero intentions on wasting Bandwidht on 20 GB s ISO..
    But Emulators and PS2/Psone on Ps3 ( and PS3 Undubs!!! specially when great games like Tales of Vesperia have no Jap Dub support!!!! .. Damn You namco!!) ...oh yea... keep it coming..

    Oh come on. Confirm his claims or something. He has said what he can do, what do you think he can do. You were pretty vocal about it before

    Only a means to poke around at the isolated SPE, and an opportunity to disable features of the isolated SPE in OtherOS in order to enable unrestricted access to system resources in OtherOS only.

    This is unusable when it comes to PS3 Slim owners, and unless some method of peeking at the encrypted isolated SPE data yields some success, we're back at square 1 - Unrestricted access to hardware in OtherOS (which is what Sony should have done from the beginning ffs!) and a secure GameOS still.
    Why do today what you can put off till tomorrow?

    Prolly this is unrelated & if the babelfish translation is correct, but how in the world u run an emu on PS3 via usb pen drive (without linux)? did sum1 manage to run unsigned sh!t on PS3?

    http://www.speksnk.org/foro/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=71395

    Babelfish YAY!

    You have a gustaria PlayStation 3 and to play to you Neon (NeoGeo) games in her? Then we have the good news, there are preparation a small package made up of the emulator SUCKS and 7 clasicazos that no-slim works (WTF is this mean?) in any console of the market, and the best thing of everything is than you will not have to be realising troublesome facilities of Linux or complicandote the life (no Linux?). It works from pendrive! (YAY!)

    The games including are:

    * The King of Fighters '96
    * Soccer Brawl
    * Fatal Fury 3
    * Windjammers
    * Baseball Stars 2
    * Neon Turf Masters
    * Blue's Journey

    … but many can be added but, and not only of Neon. In order to unload this pack, and to consult a tutorial to make it work only debeis to accede to this connection.
    Didnt kno "MAME" mean "Sucks" in spanish.

    No link to the actual file of course unless u r VIP on their forum. watta b!tch!

    gota say bable suxs when it comes to translateing stuff. this isnt unsigned code. some one has managed to get a (basic linux) install on a usb that has emulators on it with roms, kinda like a live cd you would use for your pc but this just has the emulators from what i can gather.

    if i can find the package that was posted on that site il post it here.

    this might help with the linux thing usb thing
    http://66.102.9.132/search?q=cache:h...&ct=clnk&gl=uk

    but i doubt it will come with emulators.

    i have no idea how to confirm this info that I got from another site, but apparantly, the PS3 has 3 levels of security and Geohotz only hacked the first level.
