Amon_RA just sent word — KaKaRoTo’s PSFreedom is now available through recovery mode on your HTC Android-enabled phone. What’s that mean? It means no more flashing kernels leaving WiFi and whatever other functions inoperable. Not to mention it’s way less tedious than backing up, flashing, and restoring all the time. Three separate recovery images have been released:
HTC N1 by Amon_RA
Features everything from RA Recovery v1.7.0.1 including ABD & mass storage.
HTC Dream / Sapphire 32B by Amon_RA
Features everything from RA Recovery v1.7.0.1 including ABD & mass storage.
HTC Desire by Klutsh
Features everything from ClockworkMod v2.5.0.9 including ABD & mass storage.
It’s simple: Flash the new recovery, boot to recovery mode, select the new PSFreedom menu option and select a payload to use. Each recovery image comes with these 4 payloads:
Homebrew only: No Blu-Ray Disc (BD) emulation, meaning no backup support.
Homebrew only with peek/poke: Again, no BD emulation, but adds peek & poke sys calls for certain homebrew. Peek/poke was introduced in PSGroove a couple weeks back.
Homebrew + BD Emulation: As the name suggests, this version enables homebrew and backup support.
Homebrew + BD Emulation with peek/poke: Put two and two together.
Amon_RA’s recovery also comes with a “test only shellcode” payload that is used for debugging purposes. Regular end-users will likely never use it. Then all that’s left is attaching your phone to your PS3 and following the jail break steps:
Kill main PS3 power source
Reconnect main power
Press power button immediately followed by eject.
If you know what you’re doing, then go ahead and download the appropriate recovery image and flash it. Otherwise you can follow Amon_RA’s instructions here. Just like a cat — there are multiple ways to flash a recovery image.
Update: You may need to re-download the N1 or Dream version if you’re experiencing BD emulation issues. Both downloads have been updated to v1.1.1.
