PS3 finally hacked

[Harrison]

Very nice indeed. That is definitely what a lot of people have been hoping for a long time.

Btw, removing additional languages keeps the games a lot smaller! Dragon Age Origins f.ex. has german and french, and once removed you save almost 4GB of files!

what are you doing about the online?

i think there as some games that you need to update on the net to be able to play on-line, and then PS3 ask you to upgrade first the firmware...
so, if this happends with a original game you are forced to upgrade firmware...
or can you allways update a game without upgrade the PS3 firmware ???

I was playing Army of Two: The 40th Day for the first time on Friday, basically also trying it out as it's already a bit older game, so chances were high that it would ask for an update. Indeed when booting the game, it wanted to install version 1.02, I said Ok, and it just updated the game and started it normally. The PS3 was in normal boot, not in jailbreak mode. So that seems to work normally. Only thing you can't do is signing in, meaning using online play or PSN.

Demon/Teho:


i went to http://www.dingoo-scene.com/TheCompl...guxWindoze.htm

to check full instructions and i did all the stuff including:
cmd line:
usbtool-win 1 hwinit.bin 0x80000000
and
usbtool-win 1 zImage_dual_boot_installer_ILI9331 0x80600000 (9331 in my case)

he said ok-done to all, but i should see some "Dingoo launching the flasher script"
but it did nothing.... black screen ...

i allready formated fat32 and copy the "local" stuff everything is ok, but after the command line nothing happend.

anyone has an ideia ?

In the root of your micro SD card must be a folder called "local", as you have, the zImage file named "zImage" and the "rootfs" file. Then switch on the Dingoo and hold the select button pressed until you see the penguin on the screen, then it boots into Dingux. Of course only if you did everything right with the dual boot install.

Can't remember which message I got when the Dingux install successfully finished?

[Tiago]

If have all the files in SD card, that i am sure.
my problem is in dual boot install.
you have to make 2 command line instructions, both gave me an OK-Done, but it should appear some linux initialization on dingoo screen, but it stay black...

[Demon Cleaner]

Ok, but what happens now when you try to boot into Dingux?? Perhaps it worked and you only didn't get the Ok-Done message.

[Tiago]

when i start the dingoo, it goes to the normal green screnn, nothing different from the old setup.
Even with reset+select button is the same thing, it starts as always starts.

I am sure i have all files in sd card... i wonder if all versions of dingoo work with dual boot...

They should, there's not many models, and they only differ from countries. The so called "original" ones have the Dingoo paw on the back, others are just plain black or white.

I would say that your dual boot install didn't work then, just try it again. As if it's not in the memory, you cannot boot to it. It's difficult to go wrong, if you're a bit familiar with hacks, installs, firmwares or whatever is a similar operation, you should get it working.
