Condor Updater v1.0 PS3 Homebrew Application is Released

Category: PS3 Hacks & JailBreak  By: PS3 News - (tortuga-cove.com)
Tags: condor updater v1.0 ps3 homebrew applications ps3 hax ps3 hacks ps3 apps

64w ago - Today PlayStation 3 homebrew developer condorstrike has released Condor Updater v1.0 for PS3, which offers a pseudo-recovery mode system firmware update from the XMB.

Download: Condor Updater v1.0 PS3 Homebrew Application

To quote: This app allows pseudo-recovery mode system firmware update from xmb.

I've tested it with Rogero CFW and Kmeaw, but should work with any Firmware that allows the PKG to install.

No more hold down power crap... lol.

If anyone wants to try on 3.55+ to try and downgrade, my answer is try it... what's there to lose... It should also work on PSP and PS VITA, but I haven't tested.

I think this is a very handy app, and as always, I hope you enjoy my releases...caw!

Steps:

  • Install PKG.
  • Run Condor Updater.
  • PROFIT!!!

Disclaimer: I am not liable if this application disables or damages your console and or handheld, use at your own risk.

Finally, from deank: FWIW, a simple call which you or other devs can use to get to the "recovery/Firmware menu" safely for all firmware versions would be something like:

[in psl1ght]

Lv2Syscall3(838, (u64)"/dev_flash", 0, 1); exit(0);
or as in mM 2+

static uint64_t syscall_838(const char *device)
{
	system_call_3(838, (u64)device, 0, 1);
	return_to_user_prog(uint64_t);
}
...
syscall_838("/dev_flash"); exit(0); //exit from main

It is a standard function, which works on all firmwares and all consoles (if one finds a way to call the function from a homebrew app).

Condor Updater v3.1 is the one to use, as it installs and runs on all CFWs 2.50 and above.

I still have to get NAND PS3s to work, but as for NORs this should be the final release.

NAND PS3 didn't work.

An error occurred during the start operation (80010017)

I don't think NAND FAT PS3 had different way to access recovery mode, the procedure as same as on all PS3.

yeap, same as before, NANDS don't work... I've patched everything I could think of, don't know what protection Sony implemented on those units... lol.

PS: new update for Condor Updater later today. It's an important one.
