PSFreedom – Hack your PS3 using a Nokia N900!

Ok, I’m not 100% sure on this because I don’t have, nor do I know anyone who has a Nokia N900. This apparently isn’t a direct port of PSGroove either; it’s KaKaRoTo’s own implementation of the same USB Hub-emulating exploit. Does it work? I’m hoping someone reading this has a N900 and can confirm. If that’s you, try this:

1. Download psfreedom.tar.gz, extract it, and copy the files to your N900 into /root.
2. To enable, type: ./psfreedom-enable.sh
3. Unplug or switch off your PS3 completely killing the power.
4. Connect your N900 to your PS3 via USB.
5. Boot your PS3 using the power button quickly followed by pressing the eject button.
6. Now you should see Package Manager in the XMB allowing you to install and run unsigned code.
7. To disable and return your N900 to normal, type: ./psfreedom-disable.sh

Some video to back it up:



KaKaRoTo, props. Nice work.
Update: A few peeps via the comments have confirmed that PSFreedom is indeed working.
Update: KaKaRoTo has released the PSFreedom source code.
Update: Apparently it works on a Nokia N800 and N810 using this method. Try it out, let us know.
