96w ago - Today PlayStation 3 developer
uf6667 has
Tweeted news announcing a new PS3 hardware flasher project called ProgSkeet.
Currently the official site ProgSkeet.com doesn't offer any details beyond the
ProgSkeet PS3 Install Diagrams and
ProgSkeet Multi-Console Install Diagrams, however, he did provide some pictures (below, with high-res
HERE) of the ProgSkeet device and the
ProgSkeet Drivers,
ProgSkeet Flasher Software and
ProgSkeet Flasher Software Update followed by some more updates in
THIS ongoing Forum thread.
Based on them, ProgSkeet appears to utilize an Actel A3P125 IC (datasheet
HERE) which is common among modchips due to its security, and offers enough address lines for at least 2 (if not more) NANDs with 16 general purpose lines and boasts 125,000 system gates with 133 maximum user I/O lines. It also offers JTAG pads, presumably used for programming the device.
Upon completion, ProgSkeet will allow users to downgrade and jailbreak their PS3 similar to the
Infectus Mod along with backing up and reflashing the console's memory.
More details will be posted as they become available on the ProgSkeet project, with a video now posted below and a
ProgSkeet Review for those interested.
The long awaited fix for Progskeet 1.2 is finally here, uf6667 confirms this should fix the write issues people were getting with 1.2.
Download: ProgSkeet_12_130401_1824.rar / ProgSkeet_12_120402_1730.rar
Dual boot using a switch (led on = secondary nand/nor, led off = primary nand/nor).
Supports both solderless nand and nor together. This should fix the write issues people were getting with 1.2.
ProgSkeet 1.2/1.21 BITSTREAM_12_130401_1824 (via forum.dayton360mods.com/showthread.php?947-Progskeet-1-2-1-21-bitstream-Mar-30-2013&p=2850#post2850) is the second progskeet v1.2 fix NOR bitstream.
ProgSkeet 1.2/1.21 BITSTREAM_12_120402_1730 (via forum.dayton360mods.com/showthread.php?947-Progskeet-1-2-1-21-bitstream-Mar-30-2013&p=2850#post2850) is another updated bitstream, again to fix the NOR read / write issues on the 1.2 / 1.21 progskeet.
ProgSkeet_12_130402_1730.dat
+ Added metastability to the DQ ports to filter out noise and glitches
ProgSkeet_12_130401_2010.dat
+ Reduced timeout from 1.3ms down to 320ns per word
ProgSkeet_12_130401_1824.dat
+ Added timeout for reads/writes (1ms), no more blocking
+ Fixed bug where it would read gpio from data pins rather than from gpio pins
ProgSkeet_12_130330_1909.dat
+ Increased metastability of USB (should no longer disconnect)
+ Restored Samsung Q compatibility that was caused by dualboot pin allocation
