Hello, I have a doubt, I want to return from DEX to CEX, if I do this tutorial one and brick my console, http://www.ps3crunch.net/forum/threa...6428#post46428 , and then unbricking with this another tutorial, http://www.ps3crunch.net/forum/threa...6086#post46086 one, would be in CEX? Thanks

yes try with rogero's f/w but be prepared for a brick

if you brick then follow with second tut and you will be back in cex

edit: can you let us know how you get on?

all you need to add to that is your ""metldr" from your flash.

what is it saying in linux when done?

should look like this http://www.ps3crunch.net/forum/threa...5682#post45682

Hey. Thanks for the reply.

I put the file so that the path is: /home/ps3/metldrpwn/metldr

Is this right?

Even with my own metldr present there I still get that zero filled file. This is my command line log:

ps3@ps3:~$ cd metldrpwn
ps3@ps3:~/metldrpwn$ sudo chmod +x ./run.sh
[sudo] password for ps3: 
ps3@ps3:~/metldrpwn$ sudo insmod ./metldrpwn.ko
ps3@ps3:~/metldrpwn$ sudo sh ./run.sh
+ insmod ./metldrpwn.ko
insmod: error inserting './metldrpwn.ko': -1 File exists
+ cat metldr
+ sleep 1
+ cat appldr-metldrexploit350.self
+ sleep 2
+ echo 1
+ sleep 5
+ cat /proc/metldrpwn/debug
PPE id (0x0000000000000001) VAS id (0x0000000000000002)
lv1_construct_logical_spe (0x00000000)
SPE id (0x000000000000003b)
lv1_enable_logical_spe (0xfffffff7)
lv1_destruct_logical_spe (0x00000000)
+ cp /proc/metldrpwn/dump /home/ps3/dump_eid0.bin
+ rmmod metldrpwn.ko
ps3@ps3:~/metldrpwn$

So what's the matter here after all?

Thanks.

i am no expert but this looks like the error;

insmod: error inserting './metldrpwn.ko': -1 File exists

you have the metldrpwn.ko in the folder?

insmod: error inserting './metldrpwn.ko': -1 File exists

He got this error because before launching script, he inserted this module by hand. So, this is not releated to his problem with zero filled dump.

Yes I do. The successful log some posted right after dean's tutorial doesn't show this, so maybe we need to fix this error.

He got this error because before launching script, he inserted this module by hand. So, this is not releated to his problem with zero filled dump.

By hand, as opposed to copying metldrpwn folder to /home/ps3 using the command line?

In the last instruction in dean's tutorial reagarding this dump, he says that we should repeat sudo sh ./run.sh if we don't get a proper dump. I repeated this entire procedure multiple time but everytime I got that zero filled bastard.

Sorry, my bad English.

ps3@ps3:~/metldrpwn$ sudo insmod ./metldrpwn.ko
ps3@ps3:~/metldrpwn$ sudo sh ./run.sh

This mean that you insert metldrpwn.ko by hand (I don't know how to name it in other way). After this, you have launched script. In script there is line which do the same as you before with metldrpwn.ko, this is why you got error because metldrpwn.ko is already working. So, it's normal that you have got error on this line and also this is nothing wrong. This is what I want explain to ohnozeibricked.

Anyway, I do this the same as You because from script metldrpwn.ko won't insert, so I launched it and after that, launched script (run.sh). For me everything goes ok and already I'm happy DEX OFW 4.11. I'm doing it without hw flasher so I have then full pants (PS3 cost me almost whole my salary).

I even thought maybe this had something to do with my PS3 model, bue I believe that it's the same as dean's, so it can't be it. (CECH-2004B)

Thank you Berion I understood, especially about the full pants lol

NuclearAqua, i had error's quite a few times, in the end i put the metldrpwn folder inside another folder and launched from there and it worked.

Hopefully you can have success, i am sure otherwise someone will be able to help

[Berion]

BTW: Have you extracted metldr from *your* flash dump and place it in exploit folder? If not, this is the reason of empty dump. I remember that when I download package from DeanK, there's his metldr in folder. You must replace it by yours.
