PS3 Debug / Test Firmware 3.50 - 3.60 Updates Leaked

[cfwprophet]

Yea sure just change this flag and it will run Good luck and expect a bricked PS3

If it was that easy we would have released a FULL cex2dex already, but it is more then just installing a debug.pup on a retail console.

The lv2_kernel.self will not run without some additional patches to the whole sys. Not to patch the kernel it self.

[PS3 News]

Following up on the ongoing DEX thread and previous leak, today the Sony PS3 Debug / Test Firmware 4.11 update has surfaced for both PlayStation 3 collectors and developers on the PS3 Dev Wiki (linked above) from an anonymous source.

Download: PS3 Debug / Test Firmware 4.11 / http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/firmware/OFW-DEX/4.11/PS3UPDAT.PUP / (Mirror) http://www.ps3devwiki.com/files/firmware/OFW-DEX/ps3-updatelist.txt

As always, keep in mind these PUP updates will currently NOT install on a retail PS3, and so they are intended for examination and comparison purposes only.

We have 100% confirmed that running this updater on a retail PS3 will not damage it, however, it will give the following error before the installation completes: The data type is not supported. (8002F029)

More PlayStation 3 News...

[StanSmith]

Now the big question is if you use the previous stated method and change your console to a DEX can you install this and play backups with it?

[yayodusud]

Yes you can. But it was there from a long time?

[ps3hen]

Yeah, the update surfaced... on the 16th June.

[StanSmith]

So you can change a retail to a dex and play the latest backups with this. So WHY isn't this what everyone should be doing?
Why don't we just change to dex and thats it?

I got a spare console I will be converting to a dex next week.

Gotta do a little more research before I do it as its a 60GB and it works atm and I don't want to kill it as I just got it a few weeks ago.

[bashtem]

i hope very soon we will hack this 4.1... ps3 consoles

As always, keep in mind these PUP updates will currently NOT install on a retail PS3, and so they are intended for examination and comparison purposes only.

We have 100% confirmed that running this updater on a retail PS3 will not damage it, however, it will give the following error before the installation completes: The data type is not supported. (8002F029)

PS3 DEX to CEX Switcher PUP's: Proudly presenting these special pups here for DEX users... got a DEX but can't get tools to use the thing? For example newer BD emu tools and such. Well don't fret. I included a set of firmwares here that will take away the pain. Once you run the first PUP it will convert your box to a "retail" box. you can then install Rebug, Kmeaw etc etc. If you ever want to go back to DEX (Debug) then just run the second PUP that came with it and viola back to Debug. Also this all only works on 3.55. kthnxbai.

Greetz: Mathieulh TheFallen93 Xenon7 CMX DeathClutch KiwiDoggeh Sonic-Iso K3rn3l Huegel Carly360 Xorloser barubary redline m0md4d and anyone else I missed.

PS3 4.20 DEX Downgrader: For those running DEX higher then v3.55, you might also need this special downgrade DEX pup to re-enable the feature on your converted DEX machine to go back to any lower version of firmware file. It only needs to be run once, and then you can install the normal 3.55 DEX PUP afterwards.

Description: This file enables you to downgrade again from 4.20 DEX to a lower firmware version.

Usage:

1. Create a PS3 folder on a FAT32 formatted USB stick
2. In that folder create a "UPDATE" folder
3. Copy this PUP inside that "UPDATE" folder
4. Insert the USB stick in your PS3
5. Go to system and update your PS3 through "Update via Storage Media"

PS3 4.20 DEX Firmware PUP: For those wishing to upgrade to the latest in DEX firmware, here is the 4.20 PUP, but remember it still will not give you access to PSN side of the PS3 world.

Rogero 3.55 DEX with Peek & Poke: Here is Rogero's Peek & Poke DEX.

Rogero 3.55 DEX V2: Here is Rogero's DEX V2 with the features outlined HERE.

PS3 3.55 DEX with Peek and Poke: Here is the original 3.55 DEX with Peek & Poke enabled, but it's suggested using the Rogero one as it has the downgrader built-in. Another release from 3.55 DEX with Peek and Poke.

DEX to Kiosk Switcher PUP's: Proudly presenting these special pups here for DEX users... got a DEX but can't get tools to use the thing? for example newer BD emu tools and such. Well don't fret. I included a set of firmwares here that will take away the pain. once you run the first pup it will convert your box to a "kiosk" box. If you ever want to go back to DEX (Debug) then just run the second pup that came with it and viola back to Debug. Also this all only works on 3.55. kthnxbai.

Greetz: Mathieulh TheFallen93 Xenon7 CMX DeathClutch KiwiDoggeh Sonic-Iso K3rn3l Huegel Carly360 Xorloser barubary redline m0md4d GaryOPA and anyone else i missed. Fck you : NT BA and RV.

PS3 Generator Tools 3.30 & ProDG for PlayStation 3 v4.00.1.0 and PlayStation 3 v4.20.1.0: I'm giving out the latest version of PS3 Gen (the Disk creation tool to be used with the DEX emulator) and PRODG (Includes debugging software and the latest version of Target Manager).

• PS3 Gen (the Disk creation tool to be used with the DEX emulator) NOTE: Only works on DEX consoles!
• ProDG (Includes debugging software and the latest version of Target Manager) NOTE: For usage only on DEX consoles!

From Sonic-Iso: Afaik... the reason behind the kiosk one is this. Some people can get their hands on the kiosk unit discs from retailers. These usually have nice betas. How these install is you put the disc in and restart the kiosk machine and it does this wipe and installs the betas. What i did was rip all my SHOPINSTALL folders from each disc (these are the actual betas and such) then replaced the official pup with the hacked pup and burned it to a bluray. Then i ran that puppy and got all my betaz oh and after that I run the back to DEX pup.. and rip using target manager ftw

In related news, https://twitter.com/itskamel/status/227626260690522113 has made available a NewDEXKamel.PUP (Mirror) which he states is a patched 3.55 DEX with peek and poke and also used to install retail PKGs thanking eussNL for the patch.

To quote: Ok so you converted from CEX to DEX and you have not been able to install retail pkg’s? well now you can with this firmware. 3.55 DEX ofw patched with mfw builder for peek and poke and EussNL's patch. Enjoy. Use at your own risk!

I have installed and ran Comgenie Awesome File Manager.. please post if you are running other homebrew successfully.

PSN game Mortal Kombat Arcade Collection installed and ran fine with the Duplex fix. (He owns that only one, so he tested only MK) So all PSN games should install and work. Just tested Rebug coldboot installer, and it works flawless. enjoy your coldboots. Rebug PKG installer working also! Installed Showtime 3.61 and it ran fine.

Note: You must change the filename from “NewDEXKamel.PUP” to “PS3UPDAT.PUP”

In related news from Asure: I put together the code from the different pasties, and fixed a few includes Dump_rootkey's main.cpp is a good example of how the second exploit should look.

It now compiles and runs over RPC just like the original eid0 dumper. However, by default, the actual dumping code is commented out. I uncommented it, but nothing happens, the program just sits there. This might be because of two things:

1. There are provisions for a 'isoldr.patched' in ./data/ folder, also commented. Uncommenting and using the file from PS3 Dev wiki didn't help.

2. I tried with an original 'isoldr' file from an unpacked 3.41 pup. Could be we need an unencrypted copy? Not sure at this point.

I have posted the modified source for others to peruse. This is not my work. I'm no C expert!

LSpwn: Runs like a charm on 3.41 CEX and dumps out the local storage (256kb) Could someone on DEX 4.x confirm if the lspwn PKG runs on it?

Below is a DEX to CEX video from BestHelpingsonic for those interested:

Also a PS3 4.20 DEX confirmation video from garrettcorn as follows:

From zadow28 comes a brief guide on Playing PS3 Backups on DEX 4.20 Firmware, as follows:

Here's an guide to play backups on dex 4.20, tested rachet clank:

1. first locate game
2. in the BCES00511 folder make an folder named app_home
3. drag then the ps3_game folder and all into the app_home folder (so its app_home/PS3_GAME etc in target maneger)
4. in system software or release mode set the app_home folder and choose the one you made.
5. then grab the eboot.bin unself it.
6. then make fself
7. make_fself eboot.elf eboot.bin.
8. copy back to USR dir.
9. now in xmb there is app_home folder the game shows up there.
10. start play

Note: To fix black screen games (tested prince of persia 3d):

1. after decrypting the eboot.bin to .elf, replace /dev_bdvd to /app_home
2. then make_fself

Thanks to Dean and acab for testing.

From aries2k comes some direct-boot PKG PS3 DEX 3.6+ Game Fixes: Ok, besides mmDM and targetManager theres still the old school way of playing some of the older games that have fixes. The direct boot method. although a lot of people know about this not much has been said, probably because of the very low compatibilty. There are a few gems in here and if your like me, then you might want to give your hdd some use on DEX 3.6+. I know I seen a couple of people asking about playing games from hdd0.

1. Delete any game data
2. Install the package.
3. Use FTP or file manager and copy all the files (minus the eboot) from your game USRDIR to the USRDIR on your hdd0. Copy the trophy folder if it´s not already there. should be in the root folder. the same folder as the USRDIR.
4. Go to XMB and start the game.

If anyone wants to try to make their own direct boot packages:

1. Decrypt EBOOT.BIN to EBOOT.ELF
2. Open a HexEditor and change any references from dev_bdvd to dev_hdd0 and save.
3. Rebuild the EBOOT.ELF to EBOOT.BIN using make_fself_npdrm.exe. There are tools out there that will do this if you don´t have the SDK installed. just remember the Eboot(npdrm fself) can't be signed with any keys.
4. Open PARAM.SFO and change "DG" to "HG" and save. Then make a debug pkg with your modified EBOOT and PARAM.sfo

From Lightyear, to quote: How to Make a DEX Update PKG (via ps3iso.com/fixes/138685-patches.html#post638572)

What to include:

1. The game's official title
2. the game's title ID (ie: BLUS69696)
3. make sure the DEX pkg originates from the newest update available so we can install all the game's patches!!

Notes: You don't need DEX EBOOTs. To run games using the built in BDEMU you need to have an official update for the game. You then unpack the update PKG and repack it as a Debug PKG... you don't need to alter the files at all. Also, on DEX you can run any game from the original disc as long as you have the required PS3 Firmware version.

PS3 DEX FIX Tutorial for Journey_Collectors_Edition_PS3-ZRY by ohnozeibricked

This works with Journey_Collectors_Edition_PS3-ZRY

A bit long winded but definitely works (tested on 4.20 DEX)

1.Go to the folder PS3_EXTRA \ D002, unpack the DATA000.PKG file with pkgview.

2.Pack the extracted folder NPUA70218 with psn_package_npdrm with this package.conf

    Content-ID = EP0002-NPUA70218_00-0000111122223333
    K_licensee = 0x00000000000000000000000000000000
    DRM_Type = Free
    Content_Type = GameExec
    PackageVersion = 01.00

Then install pkg on PS3.

3. Make the image as you would a normal dex image (there are tutorials for this everywhere so i will not reinvent the wheel) before you click build....

4. Tick the extra contents (new format) > Setup content Root > click File-Open > select PARAM.SFO file from PS3_EXTRA folder.

5. Go to Content Information Tab, and drag and drop all files (not folders) from PS3_Extra (delete greyed out ones) then click ok.

6. Go to Volume tab click Setup Content Items, then drag and drop pkg files from each of the D00X folders one by one (as you do each one right click and edit param. Then enter the General Parameter - Title (Default) which you can get from param.sfx in each folder ie in D000

    <param key="TITLE" fmt="utf8" max_len="128">flOw</param>
    </paramsfo>

So you would enter flOw in the Title (Default), drag and drop ICON2.PNG into Content Information Files Tab.. do this with each of the folders pkg's.

7. Click build and make image as usual.

You can make a seperate pkg for the other content ie flow, flower etc just do the same as in step 1 with the other folders and modify the content id. have fun

DONT TELL ME OMG what kind of days are these? Thank you soo much

I thought you need 2 flash back the flashCEX.bin back (backuprflash.bin from CEX-DUMP for Pre.A) If so,would it be possible to set two new lines in kboot.conf which load a linux-shell-script to flash the selected system? (like the illusion of tripple-boot: linux, Cex, Dex)

i would not risk it, flashing it with linux cause all my linux-NAND-dumps were invalid, so i use Pre.A, but 4 all the NORs out there...

Cheers
