OK BIG TIME NEWB Question, what type of wire do you use for the soldering? I never soldered before an I was just curious about that. Will audio wire work or is that just a STUP*D question???

You can use every wire but the best wire is a thin but strong wire. And if you never soldered before you shouldn't do it into your ps3.
First practise on less expensive stuff and if you think you can do it, you heve less change to destroy the system.
Has anyone firmware 1.92 already, or can confirm this still works in 1.92?

Def true. i wouldn't recommend anyone but an EXPERIENCED solderer to mess around with a PS3. What would they charge for soldering? maybe 50-60. Is it worth losing a $500 investment over 50-60? i don't think so....

No the way the trick works allows you to bypass region, since the dvd being authenticated is only the original you input first. after you can swap with anything, it will work. For PS2 games only, PS1 is another story with region, games need to be patched to match your console's region for them to work.

Be careful with the 2 switchs only because when you use the motor manually it can send current back to the board!
Read the thread FULLY man, little advice.

TSR, does the Breaker Pro work on PS3? I have a PS2 slim & it still works with the newest version. But i don't know if Sony programmed PS3 to lock out Breaker Pro for PSX games or not.
btw, anyone trying to mod any electronics should invest in an electrostatic wrist strap. It takes away the static discharge. Rub your feet rapidly on a shag carpet & go touch some metal doorknob to find out what i mean *evil grin*

So does it still work on 1.92.
Some people say their original games don't even work somehow.

Works fine on my ps3 with 1.92.
I thought the new firmware or the 80 gb model doesnt have emotion chip anymore so dont support all ps2 games the \60 gb model did.

A couple of questions that I may have overlooked.
1.)My action replay does not work on ps3. If I do a swap and load my armax will it boot?
2.)Does this work for dual layer dvds? I'm keeping into account that I would have to use a dual layer boot disc(God of War)?
3.)Can I run ps2 homebrew that I have put on a disc such as my custom guitar hero, codemajic, snes station, and other elf files?
4.)How likely is it that Sony will patch this with a firmware update?
5.)Should I do this if I have my exploited ps2 sitting beside my ps3?
6.)If backups are made of ps3 games does anyone believe that this will be the method to boot them(which if the answer is yes then forget I even asked question 5)?

2. You can swap a original dual layer disc with a backup dual layer disc and you can swap original DVD with backups DVD. If you want to play a dual layer backup you need a original dual layer game (like god of war).
4. I dont think it is very likely cause this mod is out for mounts and about 5 new firmware's came since then and still not fixed.
5. I cant imagine a reason why you should do it when you have modded ps2 allready.
6. I think some people allready tried to swap original blu-ray with backup. So far (half year) I heard nobody succesfully playing ps3 backup. I dont think it is possible whit just swap switch.

I'm going to collect what i need and get somewhere professional to do this for me and had a couple of quick questions.
1. If i can't find this exact plug what other plugs will work?
2. Wires coming of 4 and 5 go into the plug-in power adapter right?, Than where does the plug-in power adapter go?, Inside ps3 or out?
3. The other 2 switches that you can put it where do they go?, How do they work?, Is there a tut on them at all?
4. Is there anyway to open it up without voiding the warrenty?

5V source from PS3 board
Has anyone managed to get this running from a 3V source in the PS3?
This site lists the different PS3 parts, several are 3V or 3.3V.

Would it be possibly to power it from one of these?
If not, would it be possible to simply use a 5V to 3.3V Voltage regulator from the 5V source?

Could we power it from the 3V system battery?

On a other ps3 hacks site they found a new methode to play ps2 backups.
I dont know if I can give the link, but the methode is based on this methode, you have to open your ps3 too, but you dont have to solder anything.
This method works better than that one, but someone on that site is going to buy a blu-ray burner to test if you can swap a blu-ray disc with a blu-ray backup.

SOrry if this is already asked but is there any method of playing ps2 backups without taking apart my ps3 via hacking or something because if it doesn't work I'm screwed

If there should be a software method to play backups we wouldn't open our ps3's. So this is the only way (on the internet, maybe someone has other way) right now.
If you're not sure about yourself you can do the mod you better buy a second hand ps2 to play backups or just play original games on ps3.

If I see your signature you allready have a ps2. Sure it works (with backward compitable games) but if you have a ps2 next to your ps3 it certainly is not worth the risk.

OK, this is what i did -
I bought Hori Coolfan 3, 3.3 Voltage Regulator/Stabiliser, One 12-contact switch (On-ON), One 6-contact whitch (On-Off-On)
I did the same thing, guys in this forum topic had done. But instead of using two AA bataries, I used 5V source and 3.3 V Regulator.
Where did I get this source??? -- As i already mensioned I bought Hori coolfan 3 -- I got rid of one cooller, so i had two wires left (5v + and -) The reason, why i used a regulator and did not use resistors is simple. The Coolfan connects to a USB slot and USB has 5V voltage, but the Current doesn't equal to constant (so we can't use Ohm's Formula I=U/R Here) - it may vary between 0.1 to 0.5 Amper.
Sorry for bad quality foto - I am a poor Russian student and don't have a fotocamera. Hope this will help someone. Best Regards!
I am RUSSIAN, БЛЯ!
