Yesterday, Sony released the anticipated PlayStation 3 system software update 4.91. The PlayStation 3 update patch updates the console’s Blu-ray player.
What else does the PlayStation update patch include?
Regarding the PlayStation 3 update patch, hackers are warning that the update renders the existing jailbreak dysfunctional. The official update notes say the following for the 200 MB update: “This system software update improves system performance. Please note, your PS3 system requires a renewed Blu-ray player encryption key to play Blu-ray discs. Please update the Blu-ray player encryption key by refreshing your PS3 system software.”
These annual patches still frustrate hackers. All existing jailbreak tools will have to be updated. As stated on the jailbreak forum PSX Place, those who accidentally update the system software will have to wait for all jailbreaks to be updated by hackers. There is no way to roll back the system software. Resetting the system doesn’t work either.
