PS3 Firmware Update 3.42 is Now Available, Details Incoming

Category: PlayStation 3 & PSN News  By: PS3 News - (us.playstation.com)
Tags: ps3 firmware 3.42 ps3 firmware update 3.42 ps3 update blocks ps jailbreak

141w ago - Update: Several users who updated to PS3 Firmware 3.42 have now confirmed (along with Sony directly) that Sony has indeed added 'additional security features' and patched the PS3 exploit used for PS JailBreak, PSGroove and PSFreedom as expected so it is advised you do NOT update if you plan to use them.

For those who just signed in to PlayStation Network, PS3 Firmware update 3.42 is now available to download.

Download: PS3 Firmware 3.42 Update (US) / PS3 Firmware 3.42 Update (EU)

While we can speculate on whether Sony blocked PS JailBreak with it, etc feel free to grab it below and report in the comments any changes you notice and we will update the news accordingly.

Mate all you have to do is google that mswinsck filename and download that file... then place Logans and the ocx file in the same folder.

Or check out this guide: http://www.ps3news.com/forums/ps3-guides-tutorials/bypass-update-check-windows-7-ps3-v3-41-lg5tool-112501.html

I think nobody knows yet... It seems many know the existence of that log, but nobody have any kind of real info on it.

We need more infos, where is it, when is it sent, etc... As I said in another thread, we'll have to wait for Devs to tell us.

I've been trying to get a good answer to this since the jailbreak was released.

All I want to know is where the log file is stored? I've gotten conflicting information from this site and a few others. Some people say hdd, others say flash, none of them are devs. Really wish a dev would step forward and at least say something about it...

Sorry about that. I will not let anybody touch my PS3 no matter what. If someone want to then I have to be here to make sure not to updated FW. Now, you are stuck and hope someone will work around it. Maybe not.
