  • [UPDATE] JB-King Responds to True Blue's Threats - Internal PS3 HDD Wipe Real

    UPDATE: JB-King has made another announcement on their website regarding True Blue's warning of wiped internal PS3 HDDs. They are warning their customers to stay away from the latest EBOOT patches until they release the new update for their dongle. They have also put together a list of what EBOOTs patches NOT to use while you are waiting for the next update.

    Statement for latest TB eboot format HDD problem!

    1.JB-king Team apologize sincerely to our little part JB-king users, whose HDD was erased by playing games below:

    2. Our Team will release new upgrade firmware next week, to solve the Erasing HDD problem when playing new games. Expecting to notice JB-king official website

    3. Kindly advise JB-king users delay to play below games before we release new upgrade firmware.

    4. In order to avoid similar inccident happenning again, JB-King office will better supply JB-King users with game Eboot download space, and welcome to download game Eboots from it.

    5. We strongly despise that TB takes the ps3 players as a tool to maintain his windfall profits. We never be afraid of competition, as which is for better servicing our customers but not hurt whose benefits.

    Warning:
    Some of good resellers noticed us kindly that,the latest 7 eboots TB released recently, will format PS3 console HDD and other unknown risks. These eboots include vicious virus code, will hurt both JB-King users' and TB users' PS3 HDD. For these virus code can not identfy JB-King and TB exactly. Our upgrade for soloving this format problem will be released in days. And invoid to lose your game documents, we advise all TB user dont play those 7 game eboots.

    Eboots list not support now:
    Mobile Suit Gundam UC
    FINAL FANTASY XIII-2
    Silent Hill Downpour
    Snipers - Invisible, Silent, Deadly
    Tales of Graces f
    STREET FIGHTER X TEKKEN
    Top Gun: Hard Lock
    The war of the dongles has just taken another step, as JB-King team has made an official response to team True Blue's recent warning to clone users. About half a month ago, JB-King had released a v2.5 compatible firmware, that worked with TB CFW v2 and the latest TB EBOOT patches. Well True Blue recently announced that users of the device may experience unwanted results, such as the reformatting of the internal PS3 HDD.


    Just how true this is has yet to be seen, but there have been report(s) of user(s) experiencing this problem when using the JB-King on the TB CFW v2. Here is what JB-King has to say about this whole situation.

    JB-King can support all coming upgrade!!!

    1、JB-King would not be blocked unless TB´s going to block TB regular users´ upgrading.

    2、JB-King users do not have to worry about the coming TB upgrade, we will crack it soon and make jb-king compatible with upgrate package, even the new TB CFW. As we have successfully made it compatible with V2.3, V2.4 and V2.5, it is inevitably we´re in the condition to make a further cracking of new ungrading package.

    3、We strongly condemn TB´s behaviour of spiteful competition, who threatens to turn the comsumers´ console to brick so as to acheive its goal of monopolizing ps3 break market. Certainly which would greatly impair comsumers´ benefits. However, similar behaviour would never be from us as we always insist on the tenet of "customer first´.

    4、As jb-king dongle comes from jb-king team´s self-designed hardware progrom, there is no doubt that we can regenerate under any condition.

    5、If TB sets up malicious code to JB-King, TB users can not be excluded. As TB can not completely distinguish the differences between TB and JB-King, that´s also the reason for why they could not block JB-King in V2.4 upgrate package.

      I second the motion as a current TB user as well. Enough is enough. Only reason I bought the damn thing is cause their was no alternative at the time. I certainly hope this fuels a good dev or two to do exactly that. I know round the time Sony was acting like a$$holes and removing other OS, is when they got their machine hacked since they pissed off the dev community. Hopefully its True Blue's turn.

      And this is just in from JB:

      "To avoid facing the latest TB eboots format HDD problem. It is advised not to run the latest eboots released after JB-King V2.5 upgrade released right now.
      We are developing the upgrade and this format HDD problem will be solved next week.
      New official JB-King eboots download space is releasing."

      Followed by a little list of playable TB games With TB of course

      And for that you'll get erased data, wait time and an, in my eyes, inferior dongle relying on another team to supply them with games.
      You're already behind 2-0 on that part in my eyes

      After a year of no progress, no glimts of "cfw" - I don't get why people still have hope for a free way of playing games. Why do we, PS3 users, have to have a free way of playing games? Anything else, cost money in extra hardware in order to either mod or play backup games.
      I seriously don't get it.
      It's childish imho - Other scenes applaud it when new hardware comes out, making new possibilities able.
      The ps3 scene condems it. and would rather be stuck in the same god damn hole as always.

      No, I think, what would be funny as hell, is if there indeed NEVER comes out a new CFW.
      I'd rather hold my breath on some techy guys figuring out how to copy/clone the dongle and releasing a way to make our own GhayB-King dongles

      In both of the cases, I don't care. I'm on TB, mah TB is realz, and I can playz new games before any other clone
      On top of that, what have the GhayB-King squad released so far, thats only been functioning on the GhayB-king dongle?

      well said i will always support trueblue till they stop releasing fixes,i bought 20,000 units from lighttake for my family computer shop and only got 3,000 left and we will not be buying them from any shop which stock the crappy clones from now on, they got every right to protect there products and fixes if people dont like what they are doing stop using there fixes, if jb crap king and other clones dont like what they are doing stop using other peoples method and fixes and make there own, but they cant so anybody who buys a clone is losing out on future support and fixes and risking there data so its not tb fault its jbking fault for ripping off and using other peoples work, why should trueblue make fixes for other cloners to use, and to all the hypocrites putting down tb for being closed down device and pay only but they stick up for a inferior and closed down device and pay only clone of the original innovators this is for you

      You know what? Some good may come of this in the end.

      Prob wont happen this way tho, but if jb king keeps cracking the TB dongle, it may force TB to release the methods (make their method open source) to make these games work in 3.55. That would be hiolarious. Because if jb king can hack anything put out my TB then TB's only defense would be to take everyone down with them.

      but like i said, this prob wont happen, but it could.

      yeah but why would they do that?

      if someone else killed your buisness by hacking your dongle, you would just run with your money? or would you release the method so the "other" company was out of buisness too?

      so if a new CFW came out right now that allowed you to play all the new games for free, you wouldnt load it on your ps3?
