wutangrza based on flukes1 cfw, this is the one that will be the norm

[Thommo]

no bricks but no bu manager working yet. wont be long though.



==================

Step 1 Download the above files and extract them all into the same folder

Step 2 Open a command prompt, navigate to the folder where you extracted the above files, then type:

You don't have permission to view the code content. Log in or register now.

Step 3 Delete PS3UPDAT.PUP

Step 4 Rename PS3CFW.PUP to PS3UPDAT.PUP and thats it! You now have an official 3.55 with lv1/lv2 peek and poke enabled You’re now ready to install the PUP, make sure your console has 3.55 official firmware installed, prior to flashing the peek and poke enabled version. You will need to install it from the recovery menu. Also, after flashing the 3.55 peek and poke enabled CFW, you can then install Geohot’s CFW. You will still retain lv1/lv2 peek and poke.

or check the replies for precompiled pup, make sure you md5 it first.

legit md5 is 05933bb7a89bee87b0aa45c74f980e81 if it matches your good to go.

went on to mine no problem i wasnt sure about the geohot 3.55jb though i wasnt ready for the beeps i thought it had just crashed out, i couldnt find his test.pkg to test either im pretty sure everythings good though, i needed to install the cfw through recovery menu but it looks like how ever you do it its safe.

 

[Explosivo]

any chance someone can upload a precompiled version to somewhere?

also where can i dl 3.55 ofw?

 

[rawsy]

they have the ofw over at ps3hax mate.

apparently rogero 7.8 backup manager is working . im unable to test as im working away from home.

 

[zad]

One more quick question. GEO's CFW i have just got from his website. It is only one file in the zip. a PUP file is this right ?

 

[Thommo]

yes its a .pup,

just be prepared for your face to drop when you hear it making beeps then it shuts down lol.


just read someone saying rojero's bu manager working in this thread well i can safely say it isnt, no bu mangers work yet well not in the way you want, i presume you can still do the pkg way but tbh ive not even tried as im not interested in that method.

 

[iliveinuk]

yeah, those beeps !!!! i was like, hmmmm, wtf is going on here

I have read if your using multiman, and you press R3 to do an update there is a new one available for the cfw, is this correct, as im not at home to try that yet, so if anyone can give that a shot then let me know, hate being sat in work when theres better things to be done at home sorting this ps3 pmsl

yeah theres a new one but it does what the old one did, it will direct boot certain games but using the pgk thing.

moving files and eboots ect isnt for me im prepared to ait for a real solution.

 

[iliveinuk]

ahhhh, thanks mate, and yeah, i cant be arsed to mess with more files, just want a loader like we had when using the old dongle method, thanks for the fast reply

 

[jamesyboyjim]

[marra]

i seriously sh*t my self it sounded like a bomb ready go off

 

[Leeagt]

i seriously sh*t my self it sounded like a bomb ready go off

i've not got round to it yet . too scared of bricking......

 

[iliveinuk]

lol, yeap, the screen went blank, then the odd beep, i was like, hmmmm, now what, didnt read anything about this, then another beep, so i thought, how long does this go on for, shall i switch it off, then another beep then a few more, then it switched off, imagine my relief when i press the power button and it booted back up, im guessing a few more out there had that look of ahhhhhhhhh, thank f**k for that


Guys this is only when updating the geohot 3.55 pup, not the main cfw if your worried

 

[ManofScience]

I'm a bit lost again - soon as there's a tested way of running my current backups but without the minimus but via a BM - then i'm in!

online doesn't bother me that much to be honest...
