Red screen of death can be caused in two ways, the first and less common is when changing vsh files from one cfw version to another, Zofmodz gets it sometimes when playing with vsh files. NOTE: When you sign into psn you connect to the sony server, they then give you a 'ticket' which says you are ok to be online (not banned) that stays with you as you connect to game servers, I'm not sure how this 'ticket' attaches to you (mac, idps, psid, temp data) but thios could explain how you get banned from game servers and i8n turn get banned from psn sometimes (just speculation).

(I've heard that companies like rockstar report ps3s to sony and they in turn ban you but I personally haven't looked into this so I suppose it's just assumption).ĭon't assume you will never get mac banned from psn or a game, COD ghosts were mac banning with a dedicated server and I've heard of people getting mac banned from BO3, if your idps doesn't get you back online you may be mac banned or ccapi doesn't always set the idps correctly even tho it says it has. Sony will ban a ps3 if they know two ps3s are using the same cid or if you are using cfw so it's important to delete history and hide the cfw system calls before signing in. There's a black list, it compares your cid to the blacklist and if your cid isn't on there then your granted access.

When a ps3 signs into psn sonys server will check your ps3s idps (only that id), it then decides whether or not you are allowed access to play on psn. The psid is used for games in various ways, for example save data has your idps in, that's why you have to use react psn to use save data on a different ps3 than the original it was saved on (or another method). What causes YLOD (yellow light of death) ?Ī ps3 has 3 forms of identification1.idps 2.psid 3.mac address.Ī mac address is self explanitory, every device that connects to the internet has a mac address.

Why do I need to hide the system calls and delete history ?ĭowngrade/jailbreak compatible models explained. What is an EBOOT.BIN and how does it work ? You can't use something unless you understand it.
