PS3 OFW 4.82.PUP File. According to the official patch notes, the new update provides more stability. I'm not sure what could've happened. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the update. Sony has released a new firmware update for the aging PlayStation 3 today. Main features in system software update version 4.
So not too long ago we've heard that @esc0rtd3w was working on a new PS3 hack and he was initially planning to release it on Christmas, but due to a leak he decided to move the release date, and today was the lucky day.
Quick history about myself and PS3, I got my PS3 of a friend for 25 euros well into it lifecycle, probably just before or around the launch of the PS4 as such I missed everything that happened within the scene, to add to that the console was one of the non-hackable slim, so that kept me out of the scene. but not too long ago, another friend was moving places and I was helping him move, had a PS3 with a broken BD that he decided to pass my way, it can be hacked but I had no need for it, nor did I want to pay someone to do it for me, so it stayed under my bed, well, until this morning.

To be honest, I've had trouble applying this hack for various reasons so I've decided to post a blog about it to help anyone who'd like to use this new exploit to hack thier PS3.
Ps3 4.82 Update File
To start, you need to verify your console is hackable, all phat models can be hacked, some slim models can, while none of the super slim can be hacked.
you can check model number to verify, or you can download this MinVerChk.rar (Link obtained from PSX-PLACE website).
How-To-MinVer
- download MinVerChk.rar
- unrar
MinVerChk.rar
- copy
PS3UPDAT.PUP
to usb stick into folders/PS3/UPDATE/
- plug that usb into your PS3 and try to update it, but use
Via Storage
option - this should give you a message saying can't downgrade below a specific FW
- if it says 3.56 or below you're good to continue, else your PS3 isn't hackable
- if your PS3 isn't hackable, don't fret, @esc0rtd3w said there are other goodies coming along as well, so wait and see, but don't update beyond 4.82 as Sony might patch this by then.
How-To-Patch-PS3
if you made it this far, I'm gonna assume your mincheck passed, so it's time for a disclaimer, the following steps could potentially result in a brick even if you follow these steps as mentioned, but to minimise that chance, read carefully.
what will you need?
Ps3 Update 4.82 Size
NAND/NOR Writer for 4.82
which you can find @PSX-PLACE (Please ignore the dumper, it's not needed)- PS3 CFW 4.82, FERROX, at the time of writing thats the only one I could find
- A USB Flash drive formatted as FAT32 (no need to format it, if the format is correct)
Steps
Ps3 Update 4.82 Download
- You PS3 needs to be on OFW 4.82, so use network update and update the PS3 (Ideally you'd use the usb method to update, as new FW could and will eventually be on the network which will block this method)
- inside
NOR_NAND_writer_release_1.0_PS3Xploit/hex-482--COPY-TO-USB-ONLY-IF-482-FIRMWARE-OR-WILL-SOFTBRICK
you'll findflsh.hex
copy that to the usb stick (DONT put it inside any folder)(it's been reported that someone copy their dump instead of the attachedflsh.hex
and bricked their console, so I'll repeat this COPY THE ATTACHEDflsh.hex
thats insideNOR_NAND_writer_release_1.0_PS3Xploit/hex-482--COPY-TO-USB-ONLY-IF-482-FIRMWARE-OR-WILL-SOFTBRICK
) then plug that USB into the right port of the PS3 - now you'd need to start server for the exploit
- Linux/OSX users:
- open terminal
cd /path/to/NOR_NAND_writer_release_1.0_PS3Xploit
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
- Windows Users: run the provided
miniweb.exe
- I've been told you'd need to create a folder called
htdocs
besideminiweb.exe
and copy the *.js and *.html files to it
- I've been told you'd need to create a folder called
- Linux/OSX users:
- get the server IP address
- Linux/OSX users:
ifconfig
should point to the address - Windows Users: your IP address should have been displayed by the
miniweb.exe
- Linux/OSX users:
- on the PS3 open your browser and point it to the IP address of your server and the correct html file
- nand-482.html: NAND Consoles (Phat Models Axx/Bxx/Cxx/Exx/Gxx)
- nor-482.html: NOR Consoles (Phat Models Hxx/Jxx/Kxx/Lxx/Mxx/Pxx/Qxx Or Slim Models 2xxx)
- address would look close to this
http://127.0.0.1:8000/nor-482.html
orhttp://127.0.0.1:8000/nand-482.html
- if you've done everything correctly, you should get a page with plently of warnings, read carefully.
- Click
Write to flash memory
and wait for the exploit to trigger, if everything was successful, your PS3 should shutdown- if it fails, it will retry 10 more times after which it will prompt you to refresh your browser, if you get this do just that.
- if after 5 minutes of failed attempt it wont trigger, restart the PS3 and repeat step 5
- if the exploit triggers and fails, it might cause the PS3 to freeze, wait 2 mins if its still frozen, hard restart the PS3
- if the PS3 keeps on freezing you can try this as this helped me get it to trigger every time
- open the *-482.html in texteditor
- scroll to about line 204
- find this
setTimeout(trigger,500,jump_1_addr);
and replace with thistrigger(jump_1_addr);
- save and go back to your PS3 browser, refresh and see if this helps
- if the PS3 keeps on freezing you can try this as this helped me get it to trigger every time
- Now it's time to install CFW you downloaded earlier
- copy the CFW
pup
file to your USB stick/PS3/UPDATE/
and make sure to name thepup
toPS3UPDAT.PUP
- go to the PS3 system update menu and choose to update via storage media
- once the update is complete you'd be running PS3 with CFW!!!!
- copy the CFW
