E3 FLASHER – Downgrade 3.70 to 3.55
Team E3DIY contacted us today showing and confirming that they have managed to successively downgrade PS3 firmware 3.70 to 3.55 from their chip. They told us that this method requires NO soldering for SLIM PS3 consoles (required for phat), works for NAND and NOR, and is a simple one click and under five minute downgrade.
E3DIY team success downgrade 3.7 to 3.55 with E3 FLASHER In 5min !
Time is short and operationis very easy, this depend on E3 FLASHER special design, 1key operation and nor flash on board ! we not record any image about E3 FLASHER regards it’s not release by far, hope eveyone understand. the official version should release next week, more video and picture will be public at that time . PS: E3 FLASHER compatiable all NAND FLASH and NOR FLASH console .with slim console no need solder wire but fat console need .
The official version should be released next week, at that time there will be more videos and pictures and everything will be available to the public.
In this video there no images of E3 FLASHER as we need to keep our design under wraps until it is ready for release, I hope everyone understands.

YES! That was the collective reaction of hardcore football fans and hardcore gaming fans alike at midnight this morning when Madden 12, the video game that unofficially marks the start of the NFL season, hit store shelves. After the NFL lockout threatened to make the Madden franchise largely irrelevant this season—after all, who wants to pretend to play games that are pretend in real life, too?—Madden 12 hits stores to the same type of fan fare that it always seems to get, with fans waiting in line outside of GameStop and other video game stores to get their hands on it the moment it dropped.
Madden 12 In Your Life Immediately
That said, you might still need a little coaxing. Hardcore Madden fans always buy the game—no matter how similar it is to the previous year’s title—but if you’re the type of person who only buys a copy of Madden every few years, you might be on the fence about buying it in 2011. A piece of advice: Don’t be! Don’t just take our words for it, though. Here are five features included in Madden 12 that make it a must-buy for any football fan. Just remember: We almost didn’t have a football season at all. So don’t take this one for granted!
1. A brand-new Dynamic Player Performance feature
Know how sometimes you’ll be watching a football game and a normally-reliable wide receiver drops one pass and then a second pass and then, before you know, the only thing he seems to be able to catch is a cold? Madden 12 has factored that into the game this year with a feature called Dynamic Player Performance. If a guy makes a couple of drops, he’ll suddenly lose all his confidence and drop the ball all over the field. And if he makes a crazy catch? He’ll turn into the second coming of Jerry Rice. Pretty neat.
2. More than 100 new tackle animations, including 40 gang tackles
The NFL might be cutting down on the hard-hitting tackles that have plagued the league in the past, but that doesn’t mean the creators of Madden are cutting back. Instead, they’ve actually added new tackle animations and also given you the power to control the point of impact on tackles this season. So make sure you don’t get flagged for any helmet-to-helmet hits!
3. An improved Superstar Mode
This is a great feature for hardcore Madden fans. You can improve your best players’ skills on more than just game day now. You can also use the Madden practice mode to get the most out of your players’ talents and to improve their ability to play on game day. If you thought your girlfriend was annoyed by how much time you spent playing last year’s Superstar Mode, the makers of Madden apologize in advance for making it even better this year.
4. More than 100 new defensive moves
How else are you going to stop Michael Vick!? Just kidding. But, seriously: Madden 12 makes it easier than ever to play D against your opponents. Of course, that means it’ll be a little more difficult for you to score when you’ve got the ball. But we’re pretty sure you won’t mind the first time you’re put in charge of trying to stop Chris Johnson or Adrian Peterson.
5. A better way to organize your own online community of friends and foes
If nothing else, every new Madden game comes with a better way to communicate online with your opponents. This year is no different. You can create your own online community of your favorite opponents (up to 2000 people can fit in your community!) and you can find out where you rank amongst your opponents. It’s a great way to keep track of your stats—and to make the most of the Madden 12 experience. Soooo, what are you waiting for? Go start the experience now. See you in a few months…

gligli hat die Bombe gezundet und auf XboxHacker.net den Reset Glitch Hack veroffentlicht!
Den Hackern GliGli, Tiros und c0z, welche u.a. für ihre Werke wie z.B. Xell Reloaded, NandPro und Dash Launch bekannt sind, ist es nach 18 Monaten Arbeit gelungen erneut unsignierten Code auf der XBOX 360 auszuführen.
Der Hack hört auf den Namen “The Xbox 360 reset glitch hack” und funktioniert (wie der Name schon sagt) mittels einem Reset, welcher, sofern richtig getimed, es ermöglicht unsignierten Code auszuführen, während die 360 ihre Bootchain abarbeitet.
Dabei wird ein Bug exploited welcher dazu dient, die verschiedenen Bootloader per SHA zu checken um somit, mit einem Reset in unsignierten Code zu springen (bei der Slim wird der CB_A damit man CB_B starten kann und bei der Phat wird CB zum starten von CD geglitcht).
Für viele JTAG Anbeter die keine Xbox 360 mehr mit JTAG Hack ergattern konnten geht nun also ein langersehnter Traum und das auch mit der Slim Konsole in Erfüllung.
Das ganze funktioniert mit günstiger Hardware und gekreuzten Fingern, da die Bootrate z.Z. noch bei etwa 25% liegt, welche aber im Laufe der Zeit sicherlich noch gepushed wird. Unter anderem wird ein SPI Programmer zum dumpen und beschreiben des NAND Flashs benötigt den Einige von Euch noch haben sollten.
Der neuste Xbox 360 Hardware/Software Exploit soll übrigens nicht von Microsoft zu beheben sein.
Mbinc said it himself, software based approaches of running unsigned code on the 360 mostly don’t work, it was designed to be secure from a software point of view.
The processor starts running code from ROM (1bl) , which then starts loading a RSA signed and RC4 crypted piece of code from NAND (CB).
CB then initialises the processor security engine, its task will be to do real time encryption and hash check of physical DRAM memory. From what we found, it’s using AES128 for crypto and strong (Toeplitz ?) hashing. The crypto is different each boot because it is seeded at least from:
- A hash of the entire fuseset.
- The timebase counter value.
- A truly random value that comes from the hardware random number generator the processor embeds. on fats, that RNG could be electronically deactivated, but there’s a check for “apparent randomness” (merely a count of 1 bits) in CB, it just waits for a seemingly proper random number.
CB can then run some kind of simple bytecode based software engine whose task will mainly be to initialise DRAM, CB can then load the next bootloader (CD) from NAND into it, and run it.
Basically, CD will load a base kernel from NAND, patch it and run it.
That kernel contains a small privileged piece of code (hypervisor), when the console runs, this is the only code that would have enough rights to run unsigned code.
In kernel versions 4532/4548, a critical flaw in it appeared, and all known 360 hacks needed to run one of those kernels and exploit that flaw to run unsigned code.
On current 360s, CD contains a hash of those 2 kernels and will stop the boot process if you try to load them.
The hypervisor is a relatively small piece of code to check for flaws and apparently no newer ones has any flaws that could allow running unsigned code.
On the other hand, tmbinc said the 360 wasn’t designed to withstand certain hardware attacks such as the timing attack and “glitching”.
Glitching here is basically the process of triggering processor bugs by electronical means.
This is the way we used to be able to run unsigned code.
The reset glitch in a few words
We found that by sending a tiny reset pulse to the processor while it is slowed down does not reset it but instead changes the way the code runs, it seems it’s very efficient at making bootloaders memcmp functions always return “no differences”. memcmp is often used to check the next bootloader SHA hash against a stored one, allowing it to run if they are the same. So we can put a bootloader that would fail hash check in NAND, glitch the previous one and that bootloader will run, allowing almost any code to run.
Details for the fat hack
========================
On fats, the bootloader we glitch is CB, so we can run the CD we want.
cjak found that by asserting the CPU_PLL_BYPASS signal, the CPU clock is slowed down a lot, there’s a test point on the motherboard that’s a fraction of CPU speed, it’s 200Mhz when the dash runs, 66.6Mhz when the console boots, and 520Khz when that signal is asserted.
So it goes like that:
- We assert CPU_PLL_BYPASS around POST code 36 (hex).
- We wait for POST 39 start (POST 39 is the memcmp between stored hash and image hash), and start a counter.
- When that counter has reached a precise value (it’s often around 62% of entire POST 39 length), we send a 100ns pulse on CPU_RESET.
- We wait some time and then we deassert CPU_PLL_BYPASS.
- The cpu speed goes back to normal, and with a bit of luck, instead of getting POST error AD, the boot process continues and CB runs our custom CD.
The NAND contains a zero-paired CB, our payload in a custom CD, and a modified SMC image.
A glitch being unreliable by nature, we use a modified SMC image that reboots infinitely (ie stock images reboot 5 times and then go RROD) until the console has booted properly.
In most cases, the glitch succeeds in less than 30 seconds from power on that way.
Details for the slim hack
=========================
The bootloader we glitch is CB_A, so we can run the CB_B we want.
On slims, we weren’t able to find a motherboard track for CPU_PLL_BYPASS.
Our first idea was to remove the 27Mhz master 360 crystal and generate our own clock instead but it was a difficult modification and it didn’t yield good results.
We then looked for other ways to slow the CPU clock down and found that the HANA chip had configurable PLL registers for the 100Mhz clock that feeds CPU and GPU differential pairs.
Apparently those registers are written by the SMC through an I2C bus.
I2C bus can be freely accessed, it’s even available on a header (J2C3).
So the HANA chip will now become our weapon of choice to slow the CPU down (sorry tmbinc, you can’t always be right, it isn’t boring and it does sit on an interesting bus
So it goes like that:
- We send an i2c command to the HANA to slow down the CPU at POST code D8 .
- We wait for POST DA start (POST DA is the memcmp between stored hash and image hash), and start a counter.
- When that counter has reached a precise value, we send a 20ns pulse on CPU_RESET.
- We wait some time and then we send an i2c command to the HANA to restore regular CPU clock.
- The cpu speed goes back to normal, and with a bit of luck, instead of getting POST error F2, the boot process continues and CB_A runs our custom CB_B.
When CB_B starts, DRAM isn’t initialised so we chose to only apply a few patches to it so that it can run any CD, the patches are:
- Always activate zero-paired mode, so that we can use a modified SMC image.
- Don’t decrypt CD, instead expect a plaintext CD in NAND.
- Don’t stop the boot process if CD hash isn’t good.
CB_B is RC4 crypted, the key comes from the CPU key, so how do we patch CB_B without knowing the CPU key?
RC4 is basically:
crypted = plaintext xor pseudo-random-keystream
So if we know plaintext and crypted, we can get the keystream, and with the keystream, we can encrypt our own code. It goes like that:
You could think there’s a chicken and egg problem, how did we get plaintext in the first place?
Easy: we had plaintext CBs from fat consoles, and we thought the first few bytes of code would be the same as the new CB_B, so we could encrypt a tiny piece of code to dump the CPU key and decrypt CB_B!
The NAND contains CB_A, a patched CB_B, our payload in a custom plaintext CD, and a modified SMC image.
The SMC image is modified to have infinite reboot, and to prevent it from periodically sending I2C commands while we send ours.
Now, maybe you haven’t realised yet, but CB_A contains no checks on revocation fuses, so it’s an unpatchable hack !
Caveats
=======
Nothing is ever perfect, so there are a few caveats to that hack:
- Even in the glitch we found is pretty reliable (25% success rate per try on average), it can take up to a few minutes to boot to unsigned code.
- That success rate seems to depend on something like the hash of the modified bootloader we want to run (CD for fats and CB_B for slims).
- It requires precise and fast hardware to be able to send the reset pulse.
Our current implementation
==========================
We used a Xilinx CoolRunner II CPLD (xc2c64a) board, because it’s fast, precise, updatable, cheap and can work with 2 different voltage levels at the same time.
We use the 48Mhz standby clock from the 360 for the glitch counter. For the slim hack, the counter even runs at 96Mhz (incremented on rising and falling edges of clock)
The cpld code is written in VHDL.
We need it to be aware of the current POST code, our first implementations used the whole 8 bits POST port for this, but we are now able to detect the changes of only 1 POST bit, making wiring easier.
Conclusion
==========
We tried not to include any MS copyrighted code in the released hack tools.
The purpose of this hack is to run Xell and other free software, I (GliGli) did NOT do it to promote piracy or anything related, I just want to be able to do whatever I want with the hardware I bought, including running my own native code on it.

Here is my tutorial on how to install an IR adapter in your PS3 and a couple of tips on setting up a Harmony remote.
Items you need:
AUVIO™ Universal Remote Receiver for Playstation®3 (Costs $3 on Radio Shack website)
Soldering Iron
Some Solder
Flux (Optional but preferred)
Some Wire
Hot Glue Gun
Drill (I used a 5/32″ drill bit)
Universal Remote (Preferably a Harmony)
Lets get started. Obviously first you will need to disassemble your Playstation all the way down to being able to take off the metal shielding on the bottom of the motherboard, there are plenty of tutorials on how to do this (Fat, Slim) so I will not get into that. Here is what you need to look for once you have the motherboards bottom shielding off.
Start by applying some flux to the USB pins and then soldering the wires to it like so.
flux to the USB pins and then soldering the wires
The wires should be hot glued down and curved over like so.
wires should be hot glued down and curved
Now you can pry apart the USB adapter and take the connector and sensor off of it and solder the wires to it.
put the shielding back on the motherboard
You can now put the shielding back on the motherboard and place it back inside the bottom of the PS3 case and drill the hole for the sensor.
mount the adapter and sensor with hot glue
Now you can mount the adapter and sensor with hot glue.
slap it all back together
Now it’s time to slap it all back together!
setting up your Harmony remote
Now when you are setting up your Harmony remote (mine is a 688) for it you will want to choose “DVD”, manufacturer “Sony”, and the model number “BDP-S350″. You are going to need to customize the buttons if you want the “OK” and “Stop” buttons to work. All you have to do is make the command for the Stop button “Select” and the command for the OK button “Stop”. Update your remote and you are all set. It even works in Multiman.

You just got your iPad and have been playing around with it for a bit only to realize that it is not flash compatible, right? There are tons of people who have iPads who are looking for an iPad flash player app. While there are some solutions, none can compare to if the iPad was able to play flash straight from the Apple store. Without further ado, here are the flash player for ipad 2 reviews.
Apple has been in a lengthy and very public struggle with Adobe regarding new web technologies. As most of you may know, Adobe flash player ipad 2 content is not supported on any Apple devices such as the iPad and iPhone. flash player ipad Steve Jobs has been outwardly negative, and even downright scathing when it comes to third party technologies and software that come between the platform and the developer. The reason behind his motive is that that developers would not be able to take advantage of system enhancements unless the ipad flash app third party applications were using them – in this way, the developer’s application performance was inherently tied to the underlying software and not the platform itself. Yup, it’s unlikely there will ever be a native fiPad and flash player.
Now, a few critics of Steve Jobs might say that this is a foolish decision because Adobe is one of the major software companies around and they do not release sub-par products. However, when you look at their track record as it pertains to Mac support you may sympathize with his reluctance to support flash player app for ipad. As it turns out, Adobe was the last major third-party software developer to fully support the Mac operating system, doing so with their recent CS5 Suite release.
As much as I may agree with Steve Jobs thought process, the bottom line is that users are the ones who see the detrimental effect. So many websites are developed in Adobe Flash due to the rich media you can create, apple flash player ipad 2 and many folks now-a-days are using their iPad as a full-time computer. Put 2 and 2 together and you can see that people are not getting the complete web experience.
iPad Flash Player App
1. Skyfire – Skyfire is an app that you can download from the app store to turn your iPad into a flash playing machine! The reviews on Skyfire are mixed but overall it seems to be the best solution out there
2. Frash – Frash is newer to the iPad flash game than skyfire and there is not as much talk about frash but it is still a viable option.
FRASH
The battle between Apple and Adobe Flash is ongoing,flash app for ipad but there is surprisingly great news when it comes to an iPad Flash player update. If you have a jailbroken iPad, you can install the software package known as Frash (developed by Comex), which ports Flash support. Frash is still in the beta stages of development so it may have a few bugs here and there, but it provides a fix that many users had been looking for.
Frash has become a go-to option for breaking this barrier despite Apple’s negligence. As I mentioned previously, in order to install Frash on your iPad, you must jailbreak it first. Spirit Jailbreak is a simple and easy option for accomplishing this first.
Once that is in place, here is how you install Frash (You are doing this AT YOUR OWN RISK – I’m not responsible if you perform these tasks incorrectly or frash ipad 2 otherwise damage your device while trying to install this iPad Flash player):
Search the internet to find and download Frash.deb. I believe these are currently located on GitHub, however they may be available on other servers around the web.
You must ensure you have file access capability on your iPad. If you have a Mac, you simply need to install Netatalk. If you are a Windows XP/Vista/7 user you will most likely need a bash shell program such as OpenSSH, in conjuction with WinSCP. Again do a quick Google search to find out more information regarding these methods. Keep in mind that you can erase or move system files if you have a jailbroke iPad (read: I can damage my device pretty easily if I don’t know what I’m doing) so be careful.
With your iPad connected to your Mac or PC, open Finder and goto /var/root/Media
Create a folder name “Cydia”
Create a sub-directory folder within “Cydia” and call this “AutoInstall”
Upload the Frash package that you downloaded in the first step, and restart your iPad
Below is a YouTube video detailing the process of installing Flash on iPad.
Once installed you can now view Flash content on any website. To test it out, open Safari and go to your favorite Adobe Flash based site to test it out. What you will notice is that the flash player ipad app content is initially grayed-out and you must tap it to active Frash. If this does not work on your first trial, restart the iPad again – sometimes it is not recognized immediately.
It’s important not to forget that this flash upgrade is meant as a work around and is still in beta development. What that means for you is that you probably don’t want to abuse it or use it for any performance intensive tasks (such as gaming) where it will be more likely to kill your battery or crash your iPad. Frash is not really an app like the rest of the programs on your phone – instead it is a background process that ports flash compatibility to your iPad.
SKYFIRE
You may not know this but you can actually download different types of browsers to peruse the internet on your iPad. Luckily for you the developers at Skyfire have included a Flash alternative with their latest and greatest version of their browser app for you to use. This does not involve jailbreaking your iPad so it’s surely a safer option that the majority of people can handle. However it doesn’t work with all flash content – instead what it does is renders any videos that it finds in the flash file and outputs the audio/video using HTML5.
You can download Skyfire at the app store for $2.99. Check out some other cool features of the Skyfire browser in this video below:
iSwifter
iSwifter is another browser-like app that gives you a more complete Flash player for iPad solution when compared to SkyFire. They use a cloud-based Flash game streaming service to process all Flash content on their servers and deliver it seamlessly to your mobile tablet.
Like most third-party software, you can expect a bug here and there, but it has received generally positive reviews on it’s ability to render Flash games and other web based applications.
This video gives you a brief introduction on some of it’s capabilities.
The future of rich mobile media probably lies within HTML5 and CSS3, and not so much Adobe Flash updates that are compatible with the iPad. The reasoning is that while Flash is great for content, it is too performance heavy for devices that are made to be portable, quiet and cool with a long lasting battery, such as handheld tablet and other gadgets. Open web standards have been coming for a long time and mobile devices will surely use them to their fullest extent to ensure standardized and optimized performance across all mobile platforms. For now, we’ll have to settle for a third party flash player for iPad!
