Hey monk can you link us to some chipsets that are updateable and can work past fw 3.42? I purchased jailbreak but now i feel like a jackass for doing so since they haven't released their backup manager 1.1 or fw updates.... + just wanted to know if we can't add custom programs to jailbreak chipsets? I downloaded backup manager v2 but i will go bananas if i find out i can't add software to jailbreak...

thats not strictly true

some usb devices have an Amtel chip (fully updatable)

others have PIC chips, some of which have a bootloader (therefore updatable) and some others don't (not updatable (PS3BREAK, Usb Break for eg)).

the best advice is to see what other people have used, if theyve been able to use the updated versions of PsGroove then their good. My PS3Break cannot be updated (its an original one before you ask) so i cannot use firmware loader or hermes modified payload or any other new functions that will be released in the future.

So Be Warned!

I'm not saying you have to buy an original PSJailBreak, there are other WORKING cheaper alternatives. I'm just saying that the folks over at PS3Break have never supported their original product & i'm not the only one cheesed off & ripped off.
