(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Okay here is how to unban or prevent yourself from being banned on PSN.

Console ID's CAN be retrieved from OFW Consoles.

Tools Needed:

-CFW Console (3.55)
-PSID v1.6

    ftp.gx-mod.com/ps3/console/Hacking/PSIDPatch16.zip

-Genuine Console ID (Some say generated ones work but they do not unless you generate a valid one by chance)

(By genuine I mean from an actual PS3, not a randomized one.)

/ Optional genuine PSID.

This is not for nefarious use, it could also be used for masking your current console ID / PSID even if you aren't banned that way your actual console won't be banned.

I was going to release this with a 4.21 app that repokes the spoofed id's on restart etc, alongside a Console ID Dumper for memory dumps, but couldn't test information I had and don't have enough time really.

Procedure:

Firstly downgrade your PS3 to a 3.55 CFW if not already on 3.55.

Install PSIDPatch to your ps3 ensuring you place your GENUINE console ID in a file named "consoleid.txt" in the root of your USB.

Example of consoleid.txt:

    0000000100850007F400156D349708FC00000000000000000000000000000000

The first 16 bytes are your IDPS + Console ID, the rest are Nullbytes (0's).

(If your also spoofing genuine PSID then put a file named "psid.txt" on the root of your USB containing the GENUINE psid.

Launch PSIDpatch on the PS3 with the USB plugged in, press L1 or R1, Depending on what your spoofing.

If you used a genuine console ID (L1 to patch inside psid) you will be able to connect to PSN, if you get error "0x8002a224" the console ID is not genuine.

I'd recommend making a new PSN account with spoofed console ID.

You will have to use SEN Enabler to get on PSN on 3.55, and will also have to run PSIDPatch each time you turn your PS3 on.

In short:

Get ps3 on cfw 3.55.
Install PSID 1.6
Put a genuine console id in "consoleid.txt" on root of USB Stick
Run PSID and press L1
Connect to PSN

(Console ID resets when PS3 is restarted so has to be done each time.)

P.S : Stoker25 included his source in the 1.6v release of PSIDPatch, so if anyone wants to update it the offset that needs to be patched in (rebug)4.21 is:
//00064b00 (16 Byte) (LV1)

P.P.S : The PSID does NOT need patching but in my opinion a ban will occur after so long if it doesn't match up with the console ID.
According to Euss, the MAC Address should not be changed as Sony cannot retrieve it, and shouldn't be changed in NORBIN as PS3 may be bricked.

P.P.P.S : I will make a 4.21 / 4.30 version if people send me there LV1 and LV2 or NORBIN Dumps (These can be obtained by running rebug toolbox on any CFW (3.55+ ) going to the furthest right column (utilities) and doing both "Export Hypervisor LV1 Memory" and "Export GameOS LV2 memory" then sending me them via PM if possible.

How can you get a PS3 Genuine Console ID, or if i have another PS3 that i dont use, where can i find out the console ID?

What firmware is the PS3 on?

~0x00

4.31 OFW, and i want to switch it (PS3 ID) with my PS3 that is on ROGERO 4.30 V2.03 which is banned, also i PSID Patch by stoker25 doesnt work properly on 4.30 Rogero so i prob do what you suggested last and pm you so you can make one for 4.xx

Mhm, needs offsets changing is all, not sure if rogero uses same kind of memory mount, feel free to PM me the memory dumps and i'll take a look also if you have a form of instant messenger such as MSN, let me know your email and I will talk you through dumping your console ID from the OFW console.

bro i knew that too. by the way nice. um, the id you put in your example is a legit 3.55's id?
i got this to work. for a minute. logged out and banned again. and i will dump my ps3 to a permanent psid if get one. so i dont need to change it every boot
lots of love <3
if you people dont use your 3.55 online. just use it to data transfer. then you should donate your psids.

The ID I put was a legit (Banned sorry guys..) console ID.

doesn't work

I can assure you it does, if you would care to PM me i'd gladly guide you through the process.



EDIT: After rereading your post maybe i didn't make myself clear:

You must YOURSELF get a genuine console ID, write it in a file (like my example) named "consoleid.txt", which should then be saved on the root of a USB Stick / USB HDD and plugged into the ps3, you then launch PSID (ON CFW 3.55 ONLY ATM) and press "L1" which will change your consoles ID from it's own to the one wrote inside of "consoleid.txt" which will then allow you access to PSN.

IF you get error: "0x8002a224" you have entered an invalid or "made up" if you will, console ID into the consoleid.txt file, this error code comes from sony not me, so i can't understand how you would argue thats meaning, maybe i'm misinterpreting.

Contrary to slander and popular belief the PSID in stokers tool does not prevent you from going online or not, i believe it may be a hash of some sort.

(if you have tried dumping the ID of your 4.30 system with PSID your console ID will be incorrect and won't work, you need to dump your LV1 and extract it (whole process takes at most two mins..))

My question is, first of all when i save my genuine id to my usb, do i have to save it by typing it on a notepad or what tool would i use? second is that will i need to use the rebug toolbox for any enabling? Thanks
