Editing Enabling Homebrew

{{stub}}

There are currently several ways to enable homebrew on a console.

= Prerequisites =
* You require Firmware 3.55 or below, if you have higher than this, than you will need to look at [[Downgrading Firmware]]
* You cannot currently run homebrew on some of the later slim models, and none of the new [[CECH-30xx]] models.

= Methods =

== Geohot Jailbreak ==
While outdated, this original jailbreak can still be used to jailbreak your console.

This is not a fully modified Firmware. It is simply a patch that allows you to run code.

It installs like any other CFW etc.

== Dongle Jailbreak ==
Using an AVR/PIC or other active USB device with running specific code to exploit the USB decriptor (only works on 3.41 and older).

== Linux ==
Just install Linux and run apps on it.

Since 1.60 up until 3.20: official supported as OtherOS.

Since firmware 3.21 up until 3.55: no longer official supported, but made possible with modified firmwares, see [[OtherOS++]] and [[AsbestOS]] (http://marcansoft.com/blog/2010/10/asbestos-running-linux-as-gameos/).

== BD Java ==
...

== Browser based ==
Homebrew: Java, Javascript based

Jailbreaking: Right now, there are no exploits for browser. It's pretty basic one too, kind of IE6 for PS3, even mobile pages sometimes won't be shown correctly (Example: http://m.deviantart.com)
