PSGroove – Free And Open Source Jailbreak For PS3 Released
Those of you who are looking to jailbreak PS3, you don’t have to pay any more for the jailbreak software. Now a free and open source version of PSJailbreak exploit called PSGroove has been released by a github user. For the unaware, jailbreaking lets you install third party apps and games on your PS3 similar to iPhone.
According to it’s author, the PS3 jailbreak works on AT90USB, ATMEGA and other related microcontrollers. Here are the steps to jailbreak PS3 using PSGroove.
What you need: PSGroove code (link at bottom) and any AVR USB development board.
1. Download PSGroove files (link at bottom).
2. Configure the makefile by updating the MCU, BOARD, F_CLOCK values as per your chip and board.
Teensy 1.0:
MCU = at90usb162 BOARD = TEENSY F_CLOCK = 16000000Teensy++ 1.0:
MCU = at90usb646 BOARD = TEENSY F_CLOCK = 16000000Teensy 2.0:
MCU = atmega32u4 BOARD = TEENSY F_CLOCK = 16000000Teensy++ 2.0:
MCU = at90usb1286 BOARD = TEENSY F_CLOCK = 16000000AT90USBKEY / AT90USBKEY2:
MCU = at90usb1287 BOARD = USBKEY F_CLOCK = 8000000
Note that Teensy boards have only one LED. When the exploit succeeds, this will be turned off, instead of turning green. The general rule is that the LED should turn different when the exploit works.
3. Building
On Linux, use the AVR GCC toolchain (Debian/Ubuntu package: gcc-avr). On Windows, WinAVR should do the trick.
make clean make
4. The next step is to program the PSGroove hex code on to your PS3 board.
For the AT90USBKEY and other chips with a DFU bootloader preinstalled, you can get the dfu-programmer tool, put your board in programming mode, and run
make dfu
For the Teensy boards, you may have to use the Teensy Loader software.
5. Now comes the final part of putting to use the PSGroove exploit on your PS3.
First hard power cycle PS3.
Plug the dongle into PS3.
Press the PS3 power button, followed quickly by the eject button.
After a few seconds, the first LED on your dongle should light up. After about 5 seconds, the second LED will light up (or the LED will just go off, if you only have one). This means the exploit worked! You can see the new “Install Package Files” menu option in the game menu.

Il a t il un tutorial plus simple ou mieux expliquer pour le jailbreak de la ps3 en open source?
yes thank..is worck perfet
hi thanks for this
hi
@jordan
You are welcome
can this work on mac?
How do you know what board,F_clock,MCU you have in you ps3?Please want to install now?
hi. thanks for this, but how to know that my certain usb flash disk contains an AT90USB or ATMEGA chips?
this is cool
Hi,
Are you are saying here how to put the jailbreak software directly on the PS3 without using the thumb drive permanently? Could you send me an email to vorpal77@hotmail.com. I’m very interested in hearing more about how Jailbreak works and how it can be used. Do you need to buy just one of them and then you can hack it and use one to flash every ps3 you want to jailbreak or do you have a method of copying the jailbreak software to a new USB thumb drive and use the copies as if they were the original. This could be very helpful because I know alot of people that have Ps3′s and if I could buy one for myself and use it to help out a bunch of friends that would be great. Please let me know if I would have to buy a new USB drive for each person I jailbreak or if you only need on USB and you can use that to jailbreak and unlimited amount of Ps3′s. And last but not least if you can use this to copy the Jailbreak from on USB (original) to blank ones what would be the best way to do that and what is the best brand to use, or the cheapest brand to use?
woa that was a lot of info that i ddnt really understand much cuz im pretty much a noob. like i have a 8gb thumb drive with a lil light but wow do i use that? or would i have to sumthing else? pls help me i really have no idea wat im doing
OK, The theory is that almost any usb drive will work?
i dont think so, sum1 plz answer this question certainly, cuz thtz all i got
ohhhh ok. but ummmm can u explain steps like 2-4? i have no idea what all that said
So PSGROOVE does what? Gives you the option of not buying a jailbreak thumb drive and flash your own blank your USB Drive?
So is it necessary to have the USB drive still or does this program give you the ability to jailbreak a PS3 without having the USB drive? In other words, once PSGROOVE is installed onthe PS3 the USB can be removed. Can you answer that?
hey what happens if i jailbreak my ps3 and i put the backup manager and everything is there a way to like make it normal again?
I think you have to have the USB stick in the PS3 in at all times. once you remove and restart your PS3 it will be back to normal mode.
However I been told this will only work on PS3′s with a firmware of 3.41 any higher and you will have to wait for the new exploit.
The good thing about this jailbreak is that you dont need a mod chip so your warranty remains intact.
hi,
Does this work with ps3 3.42 firmware?
thanks very much

Does this work on Software 3.50 and 3.55???
hay zeks,yes it does work on software 3.50 and 3.55 just not 3.56 or higher
If i jailbreak, will the account get banned, the ps3, or an “IP ban”?
When you JailBreak, network access is disabled until you remove the drive to prevent PSN banning your account. (In other words, if you’re attempting to copy games to a hdd and play them on the network, don’t bother because it doesn’t work
If this work on 3.55 den,in the make file if u specify the firmware as 3_55.Its not working as the description.h doesn contain the 3.55.
what should be done for 3.55 firmware
hello guys will anyone help me get the jailbreak for all version or any one…. you can email me at chicago_love48@yahoo.com
