Enabling Homebrew

From PS3 Developer wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

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

Prerequisits

  • 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While outdated, this original jailbreak can still be used to jailbreak your console

Custom Firmware

This involves installing a complete custom firmware, where the firmware has been modified to allow extra features

Dongle Jailbreak

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