PS3 now hacked after 3 years!
After 3 years of trying, the PS3 has been hacked by none other than one of the first few to break the Iphone first generation: Geohotz.
The patch and instructions may be released sooner than later, and he was confident that he has broken through already. In all likelihood, the hack will probably be like the recent wii hack where you play games off an external drive which contains downloaded isos.
In his blog about how he details hacking the ps3, he mentions “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
”
Stay tuned for detailed instructions and the patch!
