PSN Restored for Kmeaw CFW 3.55

Some very smart folks over at PS3-Hacks, have restored PSN access for Kmeaw CFW 3.55 consoles. Currently the method is very technical, and requires that the user possess knowledge regarding SSL certificates and proxies. It is strongly recommended that users wait for a simplified guide before attempting this, unless they possess the technical know-how required.

Attachment 808

Personally I haven’t tried this yet, but it seems promising… This comes from an anonymous fellow who is reporting success on connecting to PSN using PS3 Custom Firmware 3.55 by Kmeaw. So install that first and then follow these steps.

The following assumes you’re technically inclined and/or very resourceful, i.e. you know how to use Google. You’ll likely need to reference Google when it comes to generating/signing a certificate and creating a CA (certification authority). That said lets get started; here we’re using a combination of two tactics:

DNS server trick: Set Primary DNS to 67.202.81.137 under Network Settings
Simple SSL proxy that basically modifies the headers for outgoing packets to auth.np.ac.playstation.net’s to change “PS3 03.55″ to “PS3 03.56″ — this makes PSN believe the PS3 is using the proper firmware version
Got it? Now here is how we accomplish tactic #2:

Replacing a SSL cert in the CFW (in /dev_flash/data/cert) with your own CA SSL certificate

Creating an SSL certificate for “auth.np.ac.playstation.net” signed with your CA certificate

Run a DNS server on your machine that resolves auth.np.ac.playstation.net to your PC’s internal IP

Create a Java SSL proxy (basically PS3 <-> PC <-> PSN). The PC claims (to the PS3) that it is “auth.np.ac.playstation.net” and is successfully accepted because a CA signed the SSL certificate

Replace the headers sent PS3 -> PSN to specify “PS3 03.56″
ChrisTechTV (if it works) they’ll need you for this one man!

Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

It doesn't matter, you will be able to play for a while, and then Sony will fix it, and then again PSN is restored and then again Sony will fix it. This cat and mouse came will become very boring and exhausting.

If you wanna play legit online games, go buy a 2nd PS3 and play legit. I have 2 PS3's, I don't have to worry for anything lol.

BTW: I hope the idiots and n00bs don't come here and talk shit how they are gonna sell their ps3's because Sony doesn't let them play pirated games on their PSN network. That shit is funny and sad at the same time.

In the xbox 360 scene, when they get banned they accept their fate and acknowledge it.

On the PS3 scene, they are blackmailing Sony for never buying a Sony product again, this desperate attempt has not been seen on the Xbox nor the Nintendo scene.
Guess what, don't buy a Sony product again you idiots, you are not even 1% of PS3 community, you are childish and immature, grow up.

This will be fixed soon like Turkish said, Really enjoy your free games offline if you want to but if not.. this whole getting online after its patched thing will become more and more difficult to the point were it's not even worth the time. Have fun with your JB console or update to OFW for online play, or have two ps3's.

You could have made that much shorter and just said "hey everyone look at me, give me attention"

Isn't it too risky to connect to PSN with CFW ? Don't you get like banned or something for that ?

I swear, it's like Turkish Copies and pastes the same bullshit in every thread, maybe the official PlayStation site is more suited to a muppet with a hatred for cfw users eh. I'm relatively new to the cfw scene with the PS3 and am a bit gutted I can't access PSN at the moment but at least I can back up my games to the HDD like I can with my 360 which I'll use for now for any online gaming needs. Hopefully a simplified solution to getting back on PSN presents itself soon for someone not so clue'd up. Like me for instance!

No Manic it's fine to play online as long as your using a legit game. I had no problems with Dead Rising 2 and Super Street Fighter 4 online.

Says the immature troll himself. By the way, playing your so called "emulators" is just as bad as pirating a ps3 game. There's no excuse, not matter how old the game is.

Are you retarded? Microsoft or Nintendo does not sue their custumers, they do not trawl the internet looking for people who 'talk' about or look at jailbreak videos. I wondered if you really deserve the hatred that you get on this site. But reading your crap makes me a believer. Or maybe you are just a troll. In future I'll just ignore you.

I bet most people who have been using 3.55 CFW online are going to be banned regardless. You guys had a very long stretch where Sony let you go online, and yes I do mean 'let'. Sony isn't stupid, they could have fixed the DSN trick a lot quicker and also have released 3.56 a lot faster than they did. They weren't just sitting there having a laugh and pouring ****tails, they would have been watching and recording console ID's to ban you guys.

IMO the only reason we have lasted this long is because Sony have let us, in order for them to keep the ball in their court. Once the do initiate bans then that will give us feedback on what they can/cant see us doing and then we will overcome it and vies versa. (like the other poster talked about the 'cat & mouse game'). Luckily though it seems on the Xbox 360 scene the hackers have won the cat & mouse game for good, but I dare say MS has some left over console IDs they can ban in another ban wave in order to give us one last hollow scare and to discourage a few people from taking up hacking.

Any way back to topic - It's great that we're are learning more ways to influence the PS3 and how it talks to PSN. That will be the way forward in permanently getting around their security, however you could be waiting a fairly long time and you may definately get a ban or two along the way.

So to sum up there is no point everybody testing this unless you're a really eager beaver and will die if you dont go online with CFW 3.55. Other wise just wait or upgrade to 3.56, because belive me they will find a way to downgrade in time.

P.S.
It is important we get a few devs running this hack in a few dozen consoles with a different set ups to see if some survive getting banned and if other do in order to learn as much as possible and make as much progress as possible (we can also see how effective those log clearers really are).

@KjGarly: Copy pasting same shit?? Where on earth did you see this post other than here? I took the time to write this shit!

@perspex: Lol I love Dead space extraction

@Trye Eyes of ps3: that shit is old, I am not a Sony agent crawling trough this site lol, but don't worry, they are sure keeping an eye out here.

@xdarkreaperzx: How am I immature, did you see me cry because my emulator didn't work? Did you see me bitch about selling my ps3 and never buying a Sony product because I dont have access to PSN??

@sertali_ozer: Ananin yogurtlu amini sikerim amcik agizli piç kurusu, sen kimsin lan artist bana ne senin yaptigindan, sikimde degilsin amcik hosafi

@Xul: Another ignorant kid, WICH customer did Sony sue?? They only sued couple of hackers, not customers. Are you still feeling sad for geosux? Man you're wasted. Unlike Microsoft, Sony was so NICE to not BAN you, and yet you still come here and bitch about it.

i've seen people i know throw their XBOX'es across their flats due to bannings and bricks,
(yay for me... free spares, not good for them tho)

i understand that PSN is OWNED by sony, they should have every right to security at that end,

the PS3 belongs to us and we should be allowed to use it the way we want,

i can't afford to download pirated games as i'm on mobile broadband with 3-network.
Games are expensive enough for mates to warrant refusal to lend (incase of loss or
damage to their game disk)
I'll explain in full later on my page if there are any further questions or complaints.

Their talking like everyone can easily make certificates and SSL proxies. "Oh now you mention it I happen to have some playstation certificates and some trickery SSL Proxies up my ass, let me get them, their a bit shitty though."

And the fact that they are still sending you hate replies proves definitely that point too lol.

But yeah, this is going to be a cat & mouse game for a while until the end.
