PS Jailbreak Cloned, Ported To Teensy++ USB Chip

by Mike Bendel on August 31, 2010 @ 4:54 pm


Homebrew developer and administrator of partner site LAN.st Mathieulh has confirmed that a group of devs he is working closely with have successfully cloned the yet-to-be released PS Jailbreak USB modchip. What’s more, is that they’ve ported over the code to a programmable USB chip known as the Teensy++.

In regards to when other USB chips will receive similar treatment, Mathieulh noted that there is “no ETA.” His full tweet is below:

Right now as far as I know the (original clone) code has been ported to the Teensy ++ There is no ETA as to any other devices so far.

Fun times ahead. For those interested, programmable Teensy++ boards are available at PJRC for the reasonable sum of $24, which comes out to approximately $30 after shipping dues. Certainly beats paying ridiculous amounts of money for the so-called “official” solution.

WOOT! I'll buy a teensy++ if the source is going to be released soon.

It's very surprising that the most solid machine has been broken without soldering, wiring any "old school" modchip to it. The modding tech also develops as well as consoles.

Teensy++? I know I friend of mine who has one, may be worth giving it a shot.

Last time I saw it, it was in a rubber-duck case and once plugged in posted a Facebook message using your account. Reminded me why people cringe when I ask them to put things onto my USB Flash Drive.

Well you know what they say, if you strengthen a part of the whole, whole thing becomes only a part. If they strengthen both the hardware and software to safeguard from hacking, they are prone to the wit of the simpler civilian. Softmodding is usually the result of both hardware and software safeguarding. The effects of Wii is an example wherein it becomes uber safe to modify because you are not entirely changing the programmes embedded within the console, just piling a custom one over the original legit one. And if it causes trouble, just unplug it and everything's back to normal/
