Firmware Updates

**mavsman4457** · January 17th, 2007, 03:16

I have upgraded to 1.32 and I am really hoping for an exploit or some kind of hope soon even if it means that I have to buy a new PS3 with 1.10 on it or if it means that I have to wait for a downgrader. Ideally it would be that PS3's full potential could be used on any firmware through Linux but I would take anything that I can get.

hey, i upgraded to 1.32, am i ok? or am i screwed? i hope i'm ok, i'm sticking with 1.32, and hoping someone creates a cheat device like the one on psp!

Well since no exploits for homebrew have been found, I dont think it matters much. Plus there is a supposedly HUGE update coming to coincide with the Euro release (word has it that it will make the PS3 a very formidable Media Center device). So really not updating just limits you in the end as far as using your PS3.

Then again, by not waiting you forfeit any homebrew abilities, if they ever arise.

Its a tough call, but since I am at the current firmware already (1.32 I think) it doesn't really matter...

theres another update coming tommorrow (1/24/07). if i have my internet plugged in my ps3, will it update the firmware automatically without telling me? also if you have 1.32, they confirmed that your safe! the iso loader works with firmwares up to 1.32! DON'T UPDATE TO 1.5 until they say it's okay!

I was going to update to 1.5 anyway, but I couldn't seem to sign into the PSN until I had updated.

I did some research on it and man is that some ****ing bull$#@!. I cannot believe that a group would 'research' an exploit for the SOLE purpose of pirating.

OK it can play backups, if one has linux installed... But still, this is just ridiculous. No 'Hello World' or anything decent like that, just straight to the PS3 destruction via piracy.

I hope better, more legit things come out of this rather than simple piracy...

i won't be using the loader, i'm buying all my game. i'm just glad they could hack the ps3, cause now there's a chance of them creating a cheat device for ps3! that's all i really care about!
