Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drives on 3.15 & 3.50 FW Without Downgrading

Category: PS3 Hacks & JailBreak  By: PS3 News - (ps3devwiki.com)
Tags: remarry ps3 blu-ray drives remarry ps3 drives ps3 downgrading ps3 fw downgrade

63w ago - Following up on their previous 3.55 release, today the anonymous PlayStation 3 developers have shared details on remarrying PS3 Blu-ray drives on Firmware 3.15 and 3.50 without the need for downgrading the consoles.

Download: Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.15 FW / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.50 FW / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.50 FW (Mirror) / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.55 FW / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.55 FW (Mirror) / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.55 FW (Mirror)

Changes: Small error fixed, FDM is resigned proper now for all versions (3.15, 3.50, 3.55)

From the included ReadMe files via the PlayStation 3 Developer Wiki (linked above), to quote:

Remarry guide for 3.15 firmware

1. Have the console on a working 3.15 firmware

2. Download the Remarry files (remarry-3.15.rar) and unpack to root of USM Mass Storage device. The following line is already changed from 1 to 0:

     #---------------------------------------------
     # Install Systemsoftware
     #   0 = ??s?????
     #   1 = ??s????
     #----------------------------------------------
     0
This will make sure the drive init PUP is not installed, thus preventing RLOD because of syscon hashes on downgraded consoles.

3. Download official firmware <=3.30 as drive init PUP and put it root of USB Mass Storage device

Content of USB Mass Storage device should be thus be:

MD5: / SHA1: / CRC32: / CRC16:

  • Lv2diag.self C48E5EBFC00ABD89094CB73A2B0BEA59 / D229AC694910272DDEA9276B9FD4A2664800638C / C2D0A2B0 / 5327

  • PS3UPDAT.PUP
  • cfg/standalone.cfg

4. Put the service mode JIG/dongle/PSGrade into port 0 (closest to the reader) and get into factory service mode.

5. Put the created USB Mass Storage device from step 3 into port 0 (closest to the reader) and run.

  • Drive Init Executing means it is starting the remarry process
  • Drive Init Failed with big pink letters 'NG' (No Good!) means the process failed. Most likely solved by fixing the communication issue with the drive.

6. After you run the initial remarry process, do not take it out of factory service mode.

7. Put a BD movie disc in and run it on the PS3. (This restores your DRL files!)

8. Then you can take it out of factory service mode.

9. Launch as normal.

Remarry guide for 3.50 firmware

I have the same problem... is there any fix for it? did you fix it?

Never mind I got it! I checked the config and it was trying to install the pup file I had. Make sure the freedbd and install systemsoftware are set to 0.

Fixing DRL and CRL Hashes Tutorial by Glevand

Introduction

It's a small and easy guide (via ps3devwiki.com/wiki/Fixing_DRL_and_CRL_Hashes) how to fix your DRL/CRL issues on GameOS with PS3 Linux.

Tools

You need my latest ps3dm tool with VTRM commands retrieve and store_with_update.

ps3vuart-tools: gitorious.ps3dev.net/ps3linux/ps3vuart-tools

DRL and CRL Hashes

DRL and CRL SHA1 hashes are stored on VTRM FLASH region. First 20 bytes are SHA1 hash of DRL. Then following 20 bytes SHA1 hash of CRL.

Read current DRL and CRL SHA1 hashes from FLASH using VTRM service:


sudo ./ps3dm -l 0x0 -p 0x1070000034000001 vtrm retrieve 0 | xxd -c 16 -p
8f0652bc6162a240362f90f1b2e5405b
b82ee50296791f41f9a76f4d895dd582
0db108ec03d192500000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000

Write current DRL and CRL SHA1 hashes to FLASH using VTRM service:


sudo ./ps3dm -l 0x0 -p 0x1070000034000001 vtrm store_with_update \
8f0652bc6162a240362f90f1b2e5405bb82ee50296791f41f9a76f4d895dd5820db108ec03d19250


If you write wrong hashes intentionally then you won't be able to play BD movies and you will get the following message:


Playback of BDs is prohibited on this system.
Contact technical support for assistance.

How to get correct DRL and CRL hashes:


sudo mount /dev/ps3flashe /mnt

sha1sum /mnt/data-revoke/drl/DRL1
8f0652bc6162a240362f90f1b2e5405bb82ee502 /mnt/data-revoke/drl/DRL1

sha1sum /mnt/data-revoke/crl/CRL1
96791f41f9a76f4d895dd5820db108ec03d19250 /mnt/data-revoke/crl/CRL1


Test

• I intentionally wrote wrong DRL and CRL hashes with VTRM service store_with_update.
• After that i couldn't play my BD movies on GameOS.
• Then i wrote correct hashes again and BD playback is working again
