We have here the PS3YES Pro, a new product from PS3YES crew with extended features to compete with the new jailbreak dongles. Before I continue I must state they STILL provide support for the ps3yes(the early versions) and are among the best in providing the newer payloads for flashing after available from scene of course.

PS3YES-Pro Features
* 8M Bytes flash memory.
* Quickly recognize PC or CONSOLE in 6 seconds, act as a USB Disk on PC.
* No need to flash the firmware for update JAILBREAK, no need to install the update software, no need to install the driver, simply copy the files for update.
* The "update files" is the various branches of JAILBREAK native payload, complete with hardware-independent, no need to care what chip is suitable, no need to care the chip running on what frequency.
* Automatically turn to USB disk mode after JAILBREAK, for install the game manager
* Support Hermes v4 (v4b) inside, if empty the USB disk, will automatically load it.
* Support PL3 branch, including fw3.01,fw3.10,fw3.15,fw3.21,fw3.40,fw3.41 can directly copy the payload files to use.

Plug it in a computer and after 6seconds the image below appears showing you the actual size of the dongle



The dongle comes with these files already available on it



Upgrading
Simple Instructions available here
Important part here is the renaming of the payloads.

Quote:
Normal payload name rule is start with "port1_".
For example, "port1_hermes_v3_1007", the dongle don't care the left part of filename.

PL3 payload name rule is start with "payload"
For example, "payload_dev_3_41.bin", the dongle don't care the left part of filename.
Heard on to the Upgrade& Downloads page for new features PS3YES-Pro Upgrade

Some other nice features about this dongle

* Create a file name "ps3yes", next time it will completely act as a USB storage until you delete it.
* Create a file name "breath", the dongle will turn the blue LED "breath" after JAILBREAK.
* Create afile name "blink", the dongle will blink the two LEDs after JAILBREAK.

Thanks for link, but this also affects the audio, I need something which will slow down the video but keep the audio at the original speed.

Well, you can add the audio to the movie after you fix the movie . I am not sure though, just a thought.

hey guys, i have an issue with the ps3yes pro.
The internal payload (when the key is empty), i think is Hermes v4b.
It doesn't work here, gives black screen. the ps3yes pro LEDs display success pattern exactly like if it worked..

When i try other payload, such as port1_hermes-evilsperm-cyberskunk-xoeo.bin or payload_default_payload_3_41.bin , it works great.

I flashed the PS3Yes! PRO to v1.0 ( http://www.ps3yes.com/Downloads/ps3yespro_1_0.zip )
but that doesn't help.

Why internal Hermesv4b doesn't work for me? any idea?
ps3 is 3.41, 60GB, fat.

Oh also, if i try http://www.ps3yes.com/Downloads/port1_xoeo_hermes_v4b_psn.zip as file, it works.

So why Hermers v4b INTERNAL does not work? i don't understand.

What do you mean by hermes v4 internal?

If you mean using the ps3yes hex files then you using the wrong ones!
Only use the files listed in the ps3yes pro dongle's page. You wont be able to use the first dongle hex files on the pro.

The pro dongle payloads will star with either port1 or payload, which is why those 2 work as you have said.
So leave the pro dongle flashed with ps3yespro_1_0 file, then use whichever bin file listed on http://ps3yes.com/English/Ps3yes-pro.aspx do not use anything from this page on the pro dongle http://ps3yes.com/English/Download.aspx these are only for the original dongle.

bigo, thanks for your answer but you didn't understand the problem.

When the PS3Yes! Pro is empty (no .BIN files), the ps3yes PRO will use Hermes v4b that is BUILT-IN, internal. This Hermes v4b does NOT work here (black screen).
Please try on your side, just JB with the ps3 yes pro totally empty.
It will be using Hermes v4b. Does it work for you?

However, If I use the Hermes v4b payload as a .BIN file (the 2nd download on this page: http://ps3yes.com/Chinese/Ps3yes-pro.aspx ) then it DOES work.

So to sum up:
- The Hermes v4b internal doesn't work
- The Hermes v4b as a file (by putting the .BIN file on the Yes! Pro) does work.

That's why I think ps3yespro_1_0 (which flashes Hermes v4b INTERNALLY) is dodgy/corrupt.

Could you please test the _internal_ Hermes v4b on your side? (just remove any file temporarily from the stick and JB normally)
Thanks.

Just tried it, removed all files from storage space and it worked normally with my pro dongle. jailbreak loaded and can run games.

Yes, I contacted PS3Yes directly and indeed my unit is damaged.
How/why it happened, I've no idea :(
I can still copy new payloads to the storage space and it works but the internal payload is screwed for some reason.
Thanks for testing anyway bigo93, appreciated ;)
