Probably. From the Playstation blog:
"A new PS3 system software update, v3.56, will be released soon. This is a minor update that adds a security patch."

Anyone who calls someone a fag for jailbreaking their ps3 is obviously a pussy because he can't do it. All were doing is making more fun out of the game and system we paid for. If you have a problem, find something else to do. All I did was delete the files (Comgenie, blackbox etc) and then perform the update. What ever patch you had on at the time will stay on after the update. So pick your best patch and update the system. Should be a new jailbreak coming out tonight.

Actually, the PlayStation 3 update 3.56 update does not ban jail-broken PlayStation 3s. I jail broke mine only a couple of hours before the 3.56 update. I successfully upgraded the ps3, but my ps3 is no longer jail-broken... The good thing is, the system is still fully operational. I haven't seen any problems. I guess I'm going to wait until the jail broken 3.56 is out.

According to VP of Network Operations Americas Eric Lempel via Sony's official blog on the update, to quote: "A new PS3 system software update, v3.56, will be released soon. This is a minor update that adds a security patch."
Needless to say, if you value PS3 homebrew, Jailbreaking downgrading or accessing PSN on a hacked PS3 it would probably be wise to hold off updating until PlayStation 3 developers can examine the 3.56 update.
The new 3.56 firmware does not block or ban any jailbroken ps3's. I have 2 jailbroken ps3's and they all still work, just not jailbroken anymore. U can get a new .pup file when its released, should be a week or two til its public. i have a patch stuck on my hdd, for mw2 it should still b there unless u erased mw2 data off hdd right after firmware update. Congenie and blackbox ftp dont work either, and will not load. Keep a look out it will be fixed very soon

Here is a pretty logical explanation of what will happen. The 3.56 is basically a system security scan to look at your files and your previous software version. If your system was jailbroken then don't update it because most likely in the next update Sony will know that you jailbroke it previously because they kept track of it from the security scan. Therefore, in the next update they will more than likely ban you.

No! Does NOT BAN your console!
Your console will not be banned because you was playing using a custom firmware. But know that if you update you will not be able to run homebrew or any other software that was meant to use with a Jailbroken console.
Sony does not have a system running a log on your Hardware like Microsoft has on Xbox360, so they are not checking if yours is jailbroken, they are just updating and people that doesnt' want to update can use the console but not online.

Yes the 3.56 firmware update has blocked all jail-broken PS3's with sony's new security patch.Luckily they are only days away from getting the the encryption codes and jail-breaking this firmware so you shouldn't have to wait to long to get a 3.56 jailbreak
Hope i helped.

No it will not ban your console
3.56 disables the use of homebrew
If you have a jailbroken ps3 and want to update make sure you return to OFW
People are already working on 3.56 jailbreak and then extra keys sony added have already been found.
To all the haters **** off and stop complaining its our console and we have the right to do what we want with it

Do this. find the 3.55 original update. put in a folder called update then put update folder in folder called ps3, then put ps3 folder on a flash drive. Turn ps3 off. hold power button until you hear 2 beeps. one right after another, then let go. u should be at a menu with 6 options. go to system update. and it will try to find ur update in the usb flash drive. then just follow the directions to download the 3.55 update. then download 3.56

As of now, you should be fine. I'm was running KMEAW 3.55 CFW but updated to Sony's 3.56 OFW just minutes after it was released. My patches still work, as does hosting a lobby with it running. If you were unaware, KaKaRoTo had the new keys within the first hour of Sony's OFW release. So, I wouldn't worry, the fix will be available soon enough.

it doesn't ban jailbroken ps3s. It just makes it where u cant access blackb0x. i would recommend jailbreaking ur ps3 and gettin the patch before u update it or u will hav to wait until some1 comes out with a way to jailbreak 3.56 ps3s.

Your PS3 MAC address will be banned. Jailbreak that. You'll need to pay 299 for a new ps3 to log in on PSN. I hate with all my heart people who jailbreak the ps3. Unless u are missing a hand or some fingers dont do it, games are fun if you play honestly and extremely boring and stupid if you jailbreak it. Don't cheat, THAT IS PATHETIC

It appears to be a security update aimed at 'jailbroken' systems...
And I'm soooo glad. I tried to play MW2 the other day after a bit of a break, and every lobby was modded.
I just want to play the game the way it was meant to be played.

I am downloaind the update right now, I have a Jailbroken PS3 Slim 120 gig... Not sure if that matters or if you want to know anything else about my setup... but I will let you know if it bans me or not.
No it does not ban you. If you are already jailbroken you can still use programs like Blackbox and Multiman but you will not be able to jailbreak after the patch. I updated and I can still sign in and everything is the way it was.

It just about made me cry when I saw the update, but It won't do anything to your playstation besides remove the Jailbreak. Any other apps you installed (BlackB0x, MultiMAN,etc ) will still show up on your ps3, but you won't be able to play them. However, you still will be able to use your modified patches on CoD until Infinity Ward comes out with another patch.

Tyler is right. Here is his answer-credit to him.
dont update follow these steps to bypass the update and still play online on 3.55
go to network
connection settings
custom
go to DNS settings
put both settings as 67.202.81.137
then save
sign in
it works
thanks man- everyone thumbs this up!

it does not bann you it just stops users from using challenge lobbys on mw2 or any custom patch online but still can use in a private match its just to stop all the people goin online with there lobbys and raping them i expect there will be another hack soon there always is also if you havent updated yet and dont want to go to your internet settings change your dns settings to 67.202.83.137 for both of them then save your settings and sign in this works for certain countrys:
usa, uk, ireland, scotland<<< thats all i know

I believe the firmware update is set to make an attempt from further jail breaking. Sad that people need to jail break something like the PS3.

It doesnt ban your jail broken ps3s.. i updated mine just now, n i host challenge lobbies for mw2.. 3.60 will ban jailbroken ps3s from playstation network.

It makes the system unusable for hacks, the next update will lock your hardware out based on ststem scan from
Security patch. Oh btw, ahahahahahahaha, you tools get what you deserve. Soooo happy right now. I really hope hacking a mediocre game like CoD was worth it ahahahaha...

by the way you can bypass and not update the PS3 and still play online!
go to network settings, and choose custom. press x until you come to DNS settings and put this in the DNS
Primary DNS: 67.202.81.137
Secondary DNS: 67.202.81.137
and then test your connection. you can now go online without updating your ps3 and still have those HACKS!!!

LIFE SAVER ... trust and try it before you update.. please do not post on youtube coz it will get patched fast... AND TO ALL IDIOTS LIKE JT WHY ARE YOU EVEN ON THIS THREAD WEIRDO??? if you dont like it then JOG ON!! ppl are saying 3.60 will ban jailbroken ps3s but if you update to 3.56 then your machine isnt jailbroken so it doesnt make any sense to me and if its a 3.41 jailbroken ps3 then they are not gonna update to get banned so how is it gonna affect us?

So if you want to be un hacked update. If you want to keep jailbreak dont update.

No! it doesn't it is a system scan in which it scans all files on the system in the next update suspected to be 3.60 which will then ban any jailbroken systems
