What do you mean by "autoload", adrynalyne?

You no longer have to inject the kernel module manually. It will just load at boot.

Do you mean the process of having to use Terminal on the phone is eliminated?

Yes That is what it does.

BDVD will let you play backed up games from your hard drive, homebrew version will not. just use BDVD, its what you want.

Homebrew version will not enable backup of PS3 games. And BDVD version will allow you to rip PS3 games onto the hard drive using the Backup Manager (manager.pkg)

 

[xstahsie]

Yes That is what it does.

Thanks!

Is there a method that exist where you don't need to plug in your phone each time you power on the PS3?

Is this a limitation of the exploit?

 

[adrynalyne]

Just submitted source to psfreedom github. I will upload the kernel source later, and maybe not on github (they are stingy on space).

Ok got it working. Im using rmk40's Virtuous v2.6 rom with the INCredible REVoultion theme.

So i have the PS3_GAME and INSTALL HOMEBREW folders. Now how to i install Backup manager?

 

[shred1]

It works with Frankenrom fine.Took a few times to get the timing right and I unplugged my usb flash drive.Trying to back up Borderlands now.

 

[Phillyrider807]

Also what exactly is disabled once the psfreedom rom is installed? Because i can still call/txt/and use wifi.

 

[adrynalyne]

Very little in the way of usb works. Charging is about it.

 

[Phillyrider807]

So i can't charge my phone while the psfreedom rom is installed?

Edit. Wait i dont get backup manager. Why is there so many different ones? Do we need a different one for every game?

wrong, you can ONLY charge. disk storage wont work, usb debugging over ADB / tethering that kind of stuff wont work.

This is the only exploit, requires it each time. Maybe down the road we will see an exploit that sticks. But not now and not for awhile.

 

[rulevoid]

For this do we need to have the phone plugged up everytime we boot the PS3 l?

Yes, every time (only if you want to use backup manage to play games off of the hard drive or run homebrew applications). You can of course, still use the ps3 the same as you would have before the exploit.

Ahh. Ok thanks.

Any tips on Backup Manager? Is there one that will back up all games or do i need a different one for each game? On this site there is like 8 different backup managers.

[bradatz]

Just download this manager http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OBGRV0Z8
The other ones don't matter since you can't use them anymore online.

Ok, hopefully this is the final resting place of revision 4:

http://adrynalyne.us/files/kernels/psfreedom/

Homebrew and BDVD are in their respective folders. Both should autoload.

I won't be changing these directories, so they are now safe to link on wiki.

adrynalyne, is there way to not have to plug in the Phone each time you power the PS3 one?

No, there is not. Not till they figure out a custom recovery for the PS3. It will happen, but for now, this is what we have to go through.

I am using rmk's old ver 2.2 rom (ive been to lazy to update). Works perfect.
