How to Jailbreak Your PS3 on Firmware 4.91 or Lower with PS3 Toolset!

  • PS3 Toolset aka BG Toolset makes jailbreaking a PS3 easier, faster, and safer than ever before! If you have a compatible PlayStation 3 on firmware 4.91 or lower, you can easily jailbreak your PS3 using only software! No hardware flashers, no need to take apart the console, not even a need to downgrade! Thanks to the team over at PS3Xploit, anyone with a compatible PS3 can patch their console and install Custom Firmware (CFW).
    If you have a CFW capable PS3 the first thing you should do is backup your console's NAND or NOR flash to a FAT32 formatted flash drive. This should be done on every install, just in case your system needs the flash restored at any point in the process. After verifying your flash dump is proper, you can download the required patch for your console and install it all directly within the browser! This process will download a specific file to your console and "patch" the console so it's ready for CFW. After verifying your PS3 has been patched successfully, you can simply reboot your console, take a 4.91 CFW of your choice, and install it directly through the XMB!
    In order to do all of this you MUST have a compatible PS3. All Fat/Phat models work! If you want to perform this on a Slim console, 20XX and 21XX models are all compatible. 25XX models that have a 3.56 or lower minimum firmware version will work, anything showing a higher minimum firmware will not. ANY PS3 MODEL HIGHER THAN 25XX WILL NOT WORK! This includes newer Slim (30XX) models and all Super Slim models.
    Although this tutorial was recorded on firmware 4.91, the jailbreak process with PS3 Toolset is the same on higher firmwares as long as all of the software needed has been updated. The only differences would be a firmware specific patch, which PS3 Toolset will download for you, and a different CFW matching your firmware version. If you see the video title and description shows a higher firmware number than what is shown in the video, that means PS3 Toolset has been updated for that specific firmware version.
    If you do not own a CFW compatible PS3, give PS3HEN a try!

    Hello mr mario, I was following the video and it was doing all good until when I got into the browser and went for the ps3 toolset it gave me a bunch of errors so I cant go to the system manager. They are all towards the end and talk about allocation, like "Failure to allocate 0x1300000 buffer from browser container" or "borrow: system allocation failed" or "sysmem.alloc:global system allocation failed". What can I do? :(
    I do love your videos though so either way you earned my sub. Thanks

      @TheGl0ryKid Před 2 měsíci

      hey not sure if you’re still seeking help on the missing MD5 file, but from my understanding, it is not ABSOLUTELY NEEDED. I jailbroke my PS3 without the MD5 file present.
      Just make sure every other step shown in the video is followed perfectly, and that every other console qualification is met (compatible model and software number). On top of that, as long as you are downloading a file from the exact link provided in the description, you SHOULD succeed. I went with the CFW 4.91 Cobra 8.4 PEX download and mine did NOT have the md5 file either. I took the risk of continuing with the process as instructed and it worked perfectly.
      Please keep in mind this was just my personal experience, but if it worked for me and for a few others in the comments as well, you all should be able to successfully jailbreak without the md5 file too. Good luck.

    It worked for me, just finished mine. For anyone who gets the following warning when you get the dump, I did a little research before proceeding which said the next step where you 'apply loaded patch' gets around that (so nothing to worry about if you get same as below). Thanks for this MrMario 🖤

    very helpful tutorial detailed instructions.
    some might wonder why tutorials like this has 30min+ duration just to jailbreak PS3 but trust Mr. Mario, you'll definitely need those instructions and warnings for successful process and not to brick you unit.
    Thank you.

    • @MrMario2011

      You're welcome! I'll tell you what I've told people a few times: I would rather have verbose instructions that come with 20 comments complaining the video is too long. Historically, when I cut down on instructions and make them less verbose it would result in about 900 comments asking for more details 🤣

    Just picked up a fat 80gb ps3 for $40 from eBay and used your previous guide to install cfw 4.90. I literally installed it like 2 days before Sony issued 4.91. I can now play PSX, PS2, PS3 and PSP games. I'm finding some PS2 games are playing janky, like Blood Will Tell. I checked the settings in Managunz and on my tv but nothing seems to fix the pixelation. Otherwise, it's great

    Got a cech 2501b for $25 on Facebook yesterday, loud fan, but works great , if it bricks, no loss. A clean, thermal paste and cheap ssd will be the next steps before jailbreaking, understand the ssd will be very bottlenecked, but it will help with loading and texture streaming on a good amount of games... Excited 👍😅

    Just wanted to give this heads up: If like me, you're having issues with getting to PS3 Toolset to fully actuate PS3 (assuming that your PS3 is comparable with CFW): Get you PS3 on a mobile network. Certain ISPs are causing an interference so that the site won't fully actuate with the console. Verizon was stopping the site from checking my PS3's firmware, but Mint/T-Mobile didn't seem to care.

    What do you do if you have an old cfw installed and want to upgrade? not evilnat but another cfw? Also not hen as the console can take cfw. You mentioned at the start of the video if you have cfw you can skip the steps, but what steps exactly and where do you continue from? Can we get a vid say if you have 4.85 or so installed with cfw and want to put evilnat 4.91 which is the current latest? Do you just skip to the 29min mark and continue from there or do you need to do the steps before hand?
