does it work with JB2USB? JB2USB is the cheapest at the moment.
No, I don't think so. At least, know one that I know has said it is working.
So far this method is only possible between JB-King and PB2 dongles. They seem to be built using the same hardware. JB2USB firmware is different.
Don't try flashing JB-King / PB2 firmwares on other dongles. There is no evidence that it will work. You may brick your dongle.
SeeYa!

JB2 use A3P250 chip and upgrade itself via PS3 pkg program.
Both the PB2 and JBKING use A3P125 chip and an extra STM32 F103C8T6 chip which is an ARM Cortex-M3 cpu, to upgrade itself via the STM32 device's DFU way. Because these two(or one) teams don't have the knowledge of how to flash it via PS3.
JB2USB might use A3P125/250 or whatever, and they didn't adopt the DFU flash method, no STM32 device on board. Instead the dongle appear as a USB drive while connect to computer and you copy a .bin firmware to it to have the dongle upgraded.
Thus PB2/JBKING's firmware won't be compatible with it. It is unclear if a dev could and want to extract the payload from JB2/PB2's frimware and prepare it for the JB2USB
I think the bottom line here, and everywhere else in life, is... you get what you pay for. The JB2USB being the cheapest of the clones, also has the least support, and the lowest "TB firmware" compatibility. You want something that can do more, well, then you have to pay more... bottom line![]()

So to paraphrase PB2 and JB-King are identical.
