Preparing Your PS3 for Jailbreaking:
What is PS3 Jailbreak?
The PS3 Jailbreak, as the word itself suggests, means that brilliant hackers are able to break the firmware for the PS3 game console. It means, they’ve figured out how the whole system works and how to run their own custom code or homebrews on the PS3. Jailbreaking PS3 is also unanimous to the fact that you can now play pirated games on your console. Jailbreaking PS3 involves inserting a PS3 modchip to your hardware which is a plug and play device that decodes your PS3 and lets you play your homebrew and pirated games.
Requirements:
Unfortunately, not all PS3s are jailbreak-able.
To check to see if you are eligible for this service, check the back of your Playstation 3 console where there is a barcode. You will see a model number beginning with "CECH". This is what will indicate if your PS3 has the potential to be jailbroken.
Below is a list of all eligible model numbers. If yours appears on the list, then you are in luck!
