SKFU's Exploit Loader available

SKFU said : "So here is the result of the simple idea. The first code which is 100% PS3 only compatible. No flash, no bd-java or similar. The actual exploit is not finished. This is just the loader you will need and a proof of concept of the methode used to load it."

Well, if anything, they've cracked the ability to upload our own dynamic themes.

But I'm no hacker, so I don't know what all this unlocks.

ryuzu5825d ago

That's exactly what this does - the guy has reverse engineered a dynamic theme that puts Hello World in the background...

It may mean people can create their own dynamic themes (until Sony deactivates the feature). Where it goes beyond that depends on how dynamic theme code is allowed to interact with the rest of the OS.

mushroomwig5825d ago

Great, so should we expect firmware 3.41 to disable dynamic themes?

Thank you hackers, once again your actions proves that you don't give a damn about anything else apart from the "fame" of being the people to hack the console.

ThanatosDMC5825d ago (Edited 5825d ago )

I actually want Sony to let us make our own dynamic themes so i can have babes doing whatever on my screen while im on the XMB or an aquarium type deal or some swaying grass or fight scenes.

sikbeta5825d ago

@Mushroomwig

IF that happens, GOD DAMN HACKERS!!! FFFUUU, I don't want to Lose Any Feature, I didn't care about OtherOS, but Anything else is Important to Me, better those nerds don't F*ck up my Console cos They'll PAY FOR IT!!!

Theonik5825d ago

@Sikbeta: No if that happens it is Sony you should be looking to f*ck because they are the ones that have been selling you those dynamic themes that would then be useless...

hey I'm always up for free dynamic themes xD

UnSelf5825d ago

what kinda self important prick puts "im the best at everything" in his background.

LETS US TELL YOU THAT, you yutz

WhatARump5825d ago (Edited 5825d ago )

Stop fucking with the PS3.

It only does everything -including revenge.
Someone's never heard the expression "don't bite the hand that feeds"

On a side note why do I keep hearing this annoying song every time someone does something stupid?

zireno5825d ago

"It only does everything -including revenge"

haha funny :)

ChozenWoan5825d ago

Show the hacked PS3 on PSN while the hack is operating.

Having a custom dynamic theme (or any hack now that I think about it) does me no good if I get kicked/banned from PSN.

Ohh and I'm still not that impressed as dynamic themes are not going to lead anywhere else in the system.

Theonik5825d ago (Edited 5825d ago )

Even if it doesn't lead to anything more than custom dynamic themes this is really cool. I thing this is worth it for making cool themes without a devkit alone. I also hope this might lead to full homebrew like emulators. I've been wondering if the homebrew community could port PS2 and NGC emulators on the PS3 hardware for a while.

@ChosenWoan: That's not entirely true. Dynamic themes can run scripts on the PS3 so it is possible to use them to modify files on the PS3 bypassing the security system. That's probably why Sony hasn't released the development kit for dynamic themes to the public.

xino5825d ago

actually the update to disable the dynamic theme will be 3.45
remember Other OS update was 3.21

get it?:P

Wow seems alot easier than I expected. I probably won't be using this but interesting none the less.

StylizedPlayer5825d ago

This is extremely misleading. The guy has cracked an app on the PS3. The VSH/XMB modules are not on the kernel level and this will need nowhere

ALFAxD_CENTAURO5825d ago (Edited 5825d ago )

Sorry, but who wants the Picture from Geohotz as a dinamic Theme?

http://mytriniphone.com/blo...

Was going good until I saw that face in the TV.

Dramscus5825d ago (Edited 5825d ago )

I would really just love to have my own dynamic themes. Also the only reason I would ever want the ps3 hacked is to be able to implement plugins. If they can manage to make in game music plugins for the psp I'm pretty damn sure some creative person could do one for the ps3.
Edit: And save states.. better menu's.. lots of good stuff could come.

OneSneakyMofo5825d ago

The more the PS3 gets hacked, the more likely Sony will take away features. As much as I'd love to create my own dynamic themes, I'd rather have the ability to buy them than for Sony to disable them entirely.

Proxy5825d ago

Hackers offer additional freedoms and Sony threatens to squash them at the expense of their paying customers. We then blame the hackers and praise Sony.

Next time someone successfully hacks the PS3 Sony should just disable every PSN account and charge everyone 1000$ to get their account back. People would really hate the hackers, while considering Sony as having done nothing wrong.

badz1495825d ago (Edited 5825d ago )

during the removal of OtherOS, people did blame the hacker but I hardly found anybody praising Sony for it! the closest to "praising" that I found is something like "they have to do it to protect their interest" - and that's not even sounds good to me. - more like bitter!

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle35d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7735d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde42d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy42d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12542d ago (Edited 42d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga43d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit43d ago (Edited 43d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199243d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga43d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac43d ago (Edited 43d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman43d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger43d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box43d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion43d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7243d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7543d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit43d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14943d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7743d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
