Which PS3 break is better and Way To Choose a better PS3 break!

Ever since jailbreak team released its PS3 break product last month, there are so many PS3 break products in the market nowadays. A small number of people use its cell phone to break it successfully, most of the other guys choose to buy a PS3 break product, it is so difficult for us to choose a satisfied break item because they are so many different these products, different quality different price ….similar features…Wow , all of these make us feel dizzy.

So what’s the point to choose a favorite PS3 break for your PS3 is a big problem, And now I am here to take away the mystery and let you guys see the things inside, and hope I can help you to choose a best product!

Here are nearly all of the break products released in the market , maybe you have already got one or would like to buy one :

There are so many different PS breaks, what’s the difference between them?

All of the break products are basically use the PSGroove source code, and PS3 break itself is a small USB single chip, actually the function of PSGroove is to make the single chip run a fixed action and take your PS3 login debug mode. Now PSGroove already supports starting game without booting disk, and it is a must that there will be more and more new features in the later time, but there is a premise---- your PS3 brerak is upgradeable !

Many guys have known that there are two main different types of chips for PS3 break in the market. Amtel ( AVR AT90USB162 ) and PIC18F , also there are other chip , PS3KEY , actually it’s largely identical but with minor differences.

Let’s take a look at their appearance:

PS3 break-Game Accessories

AVR chip:

PS3 break-Game Accessories

PIC chip

Both of them are able to flash the system and break the PS3, but the way to login the update model are different. Some of them contains a upgrade button and others update automatically when you plug it to PC. The second need to set the Boot loader or put a scheduled application in advance.

No need to see , it is easy to distinguish these two chips ,Just take your PS3 break apart. Or connect to the pc and it shows “T90USB162….” It is AVR chip, if nothing comes out , it’s PIC.

PS3 break-Game Accessories

this is the earliest AVR chip

About the update method , if the official team releases its update firmware continuously , well ,that’s great , there is no need to worry about then, just use it and follow the update with the official team. But what if the team don’t update the firmware, players should flash the PSGroove firmware by themselves; What’s worse, if your ps3 break even don’t have the update function, that’s weird, you need to open the item find the chip or short-circuit chip stitch, actually , In my opinion ,ordinary players are impossible to complete it .

The PS3 break market is so chaotic that many of customers even don’t know how to choose a genuine PS3 break. Because most of manufacturers didn’t concentrate on providing real great products for customers, they only try to hack lot of money in short time and don’t care about the after sale service.

It is a fact that AVR chip is out of stock in recent days, most of manufacturers use the PIC chip. Under the costs pressure and big profit, It is possible that some of manufacturers will change their ATMEL chip type even they are still using the AVR now. Who knows it!

Choose a trustworthy dealer is the most important aspect when you buy the break, here are some of my suggestions. I have done a deep research on PS3 break team , and have long contact with them, so I can send you some advance !

Until now, PS3 break team has released four products in total: PS3 break V1.0、PS3 break V1.1 PSHUB、USB break . Let’s say it one by one

PS3 break V1.0: it is their first product , and if you bought it in the very early time , Congratulations, it is upgradeable, and in the later, some fake dealers start to sell PIC items, this is the fact ! So now just forget it , and if you want to by ,V1.1 is your correct choose

PS3 break V1.1: this is the latest product, I am sure it is upgradeable if you buy from formal dealer. Notice : according to my info , this product has come out only for three days . it is in short stock, most of shops don’t have enough or no in stock, so be careful!

USB break: until now, there is no evidence proves it is upgradeable, so I don’t recommend!

P3Hub: in my opinion . this is a great PS3 break , actually ,it’s a best choose if you can afford to buy, It not only has both AVR and PIC chip options , but also both add the hardware update , so whatever chip you choose , you can flash the firmware by yourself. Another, it has two USB interfaces , Convenient ! It is one of your best choose.

There are also some other ps3 break products too, Forgive me don’t have enough time to talk them one by one, I will continue it later.

If you guys have some other questions ,if you still feel confused in sth about it, if you want me to find a good dealer for you . You can go to www.fyygame.com to leave message to me or twitter me(@fyygame).
i will try my best to help you and make sure everybody buys the best PS3 break you need !

PS3 firmware 3.50 disables some USB peripherals, consumers report

PSJailbreak-Game Accessories

Owners of various PS3 peripherals, including (but not limited to) the Yobo PS3 Joybox, the XCM Cross Battle Plus Adapter and the SplitFish FragFX, are reporting compatibility issues after the release of PS3 firmware 3.50. Some conspiracy theorists believe the rampant failure of these devices is linked to Sony's ongoing battle to circumvent further use of the PS3 jailbreak, which requires a USB tool to activate.

Fyygame suggests that this issue may be a side effect of Sony's discovery (and subsequent disabling) of "counterfeit" PS3 controllers. A recent consumer alert on Sony's official website states that "SCEA does not support continued functionality of counterfeit or unlicensed controllers in system software updates and these devices may cease to function in the future because of system software updates."

The Fyygame report adds that "no third-party controllers that are officially licensed by Sony" have been disabled in the latest update. Considering the affected devices haven't been officially licensed, it's unlikely that a fix will be offered. A SCEA representative told us that "SCE does not support continued functionality of unlicensed controllers."

PS3Key Teaser PKG Installer and PS3Key Tape Fix Guide Arrives

Update: The PS3Key v2 update is now available, which offers the recent PSGroove features including:

New features in v2:

1. Now supports peek/poke commands.
2. Backups on USB HDD can now run without an original game in the BluRay drive.
3. Works with Backup Manager 2.

Today One French site have shared some screens of the PS3Key Teaser PKG Installer loader, and I post a PS3Key Tape Fix guide for those unfortunate enough to get a first-run production PS3Key PlayStation 3 modchip which contains a design flaw.

To quote, roughly translated: "Following our page on PS3Key, Team PS3Key contacted us and denies making a clone PSJailbreak.

She presents her own at the loader manager PS3Key which only works with the PS3 master key and provides the perfect situation at future upgrades of the chip PS3Key the reactions of Sony."

That said, it appears the PS3Key Teaser will only work with official PS3Key modchips and not other clones... at least for the time being.

PS3Key Tape Fix Guide

There is no light at all from the PS3Key LED while inserted in the PS3 USB slot after doing the jailbreak. Also known as the PS3Key DOA (Dead On Arrival) problem.

Disassembly

Remove the rubber back of the PS3Key as shown below, it should come off easy.

PS3Key-Game Accessories

Bend out the tiny clamps holding the board (PCB) using a small screwdriver or a pair of pliers with really thin tips as seen below. The board should slide out easily once these two are bent out. Be careful not bending the clamps "back and forth" too much as they could break off.

PS3Key-Game Accessories

Remove masking tape

The bottom side of the PCB can be seen here with the masking tape removed. The two clock (crystal) pins are visible. PS3Key bottom side of PCB, the masking tape has been removed from the two clock pin solder joints.

PS3Key-Game Accessories

Solution

Here you can see the board after I applied the electrical tape which should be enough to prevent the pins from shorting out against the metal case. Use quality electrical tape to cover these solder joints, perhaps two layers of tape just to make sure the pins will not pierce through after wear and tear.

PS3Key-Game Accessories

Done

After this just slide the board back in, carefully bend the clamps back around the PCB and push the rubber back on (sounds almost kinky).

If you want to buy one PS3Key for trying, you can go to fyygame.com. There are many kinds of PS3 Jailbreak for you choose.

PS Jailbreak gives way to PS3 Break

PS Jailbreak is the previous product to crack the PS3 and it has got punishment from Sony. Players may have got the news that another cloned product of PS Jailbreak, called PS3 Break have been born and take over the market in a short time. Ironically,

The PS Jailbreak has to give way to the piracy of it.

PS Jailbreak has been quite popular for a period of time until the update 3.42 and other legal measures Sony took to resist it.

Obviously, some of you won’t be excited by the actions Sony has took. If you have bought a Jailbreak, just don’t upgrade to firmware3.42.However, Sony thought about this too. You won’t be able to play any game in multiplayer mode because you can’t sign into PSN anymore without the 3.42.You must be upset. Here comes another news may make you happy again. PS3 Break just came into being when Sony is still busy dealing with PS Jailbreak.

The PS3 Break has lots in common with the PS Jailbreak. They both use the USB port and look like U disks. They are both compatible with all fat and slim models. Besides, you can use them exactly in the same way. PS3 Dongle has some advantages on the other hand. It can upgrade hardware firmware thoroughly and the key “Upgrade” for software upgrades and avoids to be blocked by Sony. Is it the end of the PS Jailbreak? Are there any other new products can do the same things as PS3 Break? We have no idea. Piracy is such a serious problem now and it costs a lot to resist it.

We can also expect Sony to do something to stop this new piracy. But Sony needs more time to take action.
