First off, thanks to Skatekid for the tutorial and XDev for the video proof.  In this tutorial, you basically need two PS3s.  This is useful for those who need to get dlc map pack accounts or so on their 3.55 cfw.  This does not work for REBUG 3.55.  It has to be one of the other 3.55 cfws out there.  And this will work for 3.61 to 3.55 as well.

Tutorial:

First off the Regular PS3 needs to be on 3.65 Firmware.
Your Second PS3 needs to Be on a 3.55 CFW “Not Rebug”
DOWNLOAD FOR SPOOF BELOW
Next You will need to download the 3.65 spoofer. Lost redirect

Thanks to wmxp over at psx-scene who has released this privacy patch for Rebug 3.55.1. It is of course unofficial since it is not made by the Rebug team. This is a modified PUP with both the official update 0.1 and the official Rebug privacy patch applied, and a created DIFF patch for the public. It is a patch only and requires the original Rebug 3.55.1 PUP file. The patch has been tested successfully on two PS3s (one phat/one slim) without issues. The privacy patch scans and edits all the PS3′s system files looking for any reference to a Sony and/or affiliate domain, and replaces it with “aaaaaaaaaaa” leaving the extension intact.

Post by wmxp:

I’m not too fond of the giant enemy crab spying on me, and I wanted the official privacy patch applied again after the 0.1 update had been done. I created a modified PUP with both the official Update 0.1 and official Rebug Privacy patch applied, and created a DIFF patch for the public attached here.

An unknown dev has released this Easy Spoof TCL Mod. It is a simple command file to use with MFW Builder to allow you to spoof your PS3 custom firmware file to older or latest version number which is now v3.65. It will even let you upgrade to v6.60 or v9.90! But do not do this because as you might not be able to update ever again or even downgrade. (more…)

Here is a tutorial on how to get Rebug 3.55.1 PSN working on USA and UK, thanks to FIFTY1_FIF_T over at nextgenupdate.   So far it seems to be working with USA and UK, but not sure about the other countries.  If you are not from USA and UK, give it a try and see if it works for you.  Let us know if it works for you and we will update this post.  There is a 3.61 spoof that you will need to download.  It will be available in our forums.

Tutorial:

1:  You need to have Rebug 3.55.1.

2:  Install the 3.61 spoof.
To install the spoof, just install and run the dev_blind.pkg. Then replace the files in the folder with the ones in your PS3 using FTP or a file manager.

3: You need an account that was created in sp-int before the outage.

4: PSN: Log in user in which the sp-int was created before the attack.

5: Primary DNS:
Primary DNS for UK: 46.166.128.101
Primary DNS for US: 67.159.31.149

Secondary DNS: 8.8.8.8

Everything else in auto. Make sure to have your PS3 NP ENVIRONMENT TO SP-INT. Then REBOOT…

Thanks to blazie151, who has informed us that Team SOS has released a very awesome tool called Homebrew Stealthing Utility v1.3.5. This will allow you to stealth a homebrew application or game as any PSN demo or full game. It will allow you to have the option to choose what you want to stealth the homebrew as. This will usually appear as game sharing. For double protection, you can try downloading the demo first and it’ll be added to your purchase history. The current features of this tool includes the support of all pkg files, grabs the game IDs and homebrew names automatically, works on virtual machines, and much more.

Features:

-Stealthed pkg file works on all firmware versions (3.15, 3.41, 3.55) including GH 3.55
-Supports all pkg files
-Supports run time arguments so you can open this program with a file or even automate it
-Grabs the GameIDs and homebrew names automatically
-Creates the -conf files automatically
-Creates the stealth pkg automatically
-Adds an additional user specified file if selected
-Can sign the file automatically if selected (3.55GH mainly)
-Pause checkbox allows manual modification of files before pkg’ing
-Works on Virtual Machines, runs with .net 3.5

Known Issues:

-Some virus protection programs don’t like it. This is because it creates all dependency files during run time, and some virus protection programs don’t like exe files appearing from thin air. If this happens to you, please add the dir this utility is stored in to your excluded list in your virus scanner.

Future Features:

-Automatic modification of ini files (like the ones in MultiMan)
-Automatically change MultiMan’s log cleaning setting

It didn’t take long for the Rebug team to respond to the release of firmware v3.60 for the PS3. Early this morning, they released 3.60 Version Spoofer v1.1, which restores online/PSN access on firmware v3.55. As you may already know, with any new firmware release, you need to run it on your PS3 console in order to restore access privileges to the PlayStation Network–Sony’s way of forcing it down your throat.

Thanks to our forum member Flym4n for posting this!

3.60 Version Spoofer is working for now. This allows PSN access but DOES NOT use the PS3ITA CFW patch. NO new CFW, F@ckPSN or PC needed.. Once the PS3 is spoofed it will stay spoofed until it is uninstalled.

Instructions:

• Press CROSS to INSTALL 3.60 Version Spoof (the status will change after 15 – 45 seconds telling you to reboot)
• Press CIRCLE to UNINSTALL 3.60 Version Spoof (the status will change after 15 – 45 seconds telling you to reboot)

With the recent banhammer coming from Sony, many jailbreaked PS3 owners are now afraid of logging onto the PlayStation Network (PSN). But it looks like you can put that fear aside (at least for now) and jump right onto PSN after you have followed this tutorial. According to ARVI, a forum member of psx-scene, he has found a way to trick the PSN server into thinking that a PS3 console running Kmeaw’s custom firmware v3.55 is a legitimate console running on official PS3 firmware v3.56.

ARVI:

PS3 Spoofed to 3.56 using LV2 Patcher with Multiman + PSN 3.56 Spoofed

Works perfect on KMEAW 3.55 (Only tested on Kmeaw 3.55)

* lv2 Patcher needed until 3.56 spoof is supported in the game managers.
* PSN Enabled with F*CK PSN.

I now have a PS3 CFW 3.55 that reports the system info to be a 3.56, with working PSN that also reports to be 3.56 when accessing the servers. The system logs should hopefully now show a legit 3.56 user when accessing PSN and also when system checks are made.

See tutorial for Kmeaw’s custom firmware v3.55 spoofed to v3.56 with PSN v3.56 spoof »

The Rebug team is on a roll. Another release for the today–a 3.56 version spoofer which tricks any PS3 running custom firmware v3.55 into thinking that it has firmware v3.56 installed. This [u]will not[/u] allow you to gain access to the PlayStation Network (PSN)–just stops your PS3 from updating to firmware v3.56.

From the PDF file:

***** THIS DOES NOT ALLOW PSN ACCESS *****

***** FOR 3.55 ONLY **** FOR 3.55 ONLY *****

3.56 Version Spoofer does exactly what it says and can restore back to 3.55 if needed. It was never intended to allow PSN access but to stop the system from updating to 3.56(I made it shortly after KaKaRoToKS had his false alarm).

Once the PS3 is spoofed it will stay spoofed until it is uninstalled.

Press CROSS to INSTALL 3.56 Version Spoof (the status will change after 15 – 45 seconds telling you to reboot)

Press CIRCLE to UNINSTALL 3.56 Version Spoof (the status will change after 15 – 45 seconds telling you to reboot)

…Enjoy

Here’s an E3 Card Reader firmware that you can use to spoof your PS3′s firmware to v3.55, as well as jailbreak your PS3 (running firmware v3.41). As with all current v3.55 spoofing, it will block your PS3 from prompting for an update to firmware v3.55. Also, this E3 Card Reader firmware will simplify free psgroove usage (I’m not sure what that means).
