Sony Blocks PS3 Proxy Methods, PS3 Firmware 3.42 Issues Arise

Category: PlayStation 3 & PSN News  By: PS3 News - (psx-scene.com)
Tags: sony ps3 proxy methods ps3 proxy blocked ps3 dns bypass ps3 firmware 3.42 issues

141w ago - A few days ago Sony released PS3 Firmware 3.42 which plugged the PS3 JailBreak exploit, and today they have blocked PlayStation 3 proxy connection methods amid reports of 3.42 update issues.

As of today, to connect to PSN and use your PS3 online users are required to update to Firmware version 3.42 rendering the PS3 Firmware Bypass and DNS methods useless.

Additionally, garyopa reports via Product-Reviews.net that some users who updated to PS3 Firmware 3.42 are now experiencing various issues, to quote:

"There is numerous reports of 'Sound Problems,' they seem to be the biggest problem, with sound cutting in and out. Also reports of games like COD:MW2, Battlefield 2: Bad Company, Madden 2011 in crashing or not even loading at times.

Of course with every new firmware update, there is the series of reports of 'bricks,' the PS3 just looping, or frozen forever after the update."

Close but not quite there. If the system layout is anything like the PSP (what I've seen so far it's close enough) then the version would be stored in index.dat which is most likely encrypted
