  • multiMAN 04.06.00 & New CFW 4.21 on the horizon

    It appears we may not be stuck on 3.55 CFW much longer. Deank has provided us with some conformation that this new CFW labeled Red Power's 4.21 is indeed real. multiMAN has been updated to version 04.06.00 so this CFW is compatible when it is released to the public, There also was speculation that this CFW may need a reDRM dongle in order to use the CFW. That was false information as deank also confirms this CFW will not need a dongle of any sort. multiMAN also just turned 2 years old. What a 2 years it has been for this app., was great at the start and now is spectacular. Soon as you don't think it can get any better it always does. So thank you deank for all the amazing updates and work you have put into this amazing application the past two years..Below you will find out more information about Red Power 4.21 CFW through some very rough google translations. Please everyone be patient while this new CFW makes it way to the public. Be cautious of any potential fakes. Keep in mind this is not deank's CFW so this story could take some turns before it is released to the public

    Update: The Changelog appears to be speaking of two different CFW's.



    Deank @ ps3crunch forums

    I just woke up and read some posts about some chinese sh*tty dongle for 4.21... Just to make it clear - the mM update has nothing to do with it and doesn't need a dongle if used with 4.21cfw. It is a pure speculation I guess, because there are a lot of people around who won't allow another dongle to surface anyway. I don't believe that their dongle (which I doubt it exists at all) will see the light of any day!

    Red Power's 4.21 CFW

    A Chinese website "bbs.duowan" first broke the news of a new CFW with this video and the information.

    First, get under host.
    Host model CECH-2512B
    has 4.21CFW brush good RED POWER ... get is to brush the sure 4.21 official system can brush. Verify that the 3.55 can brush, it is recommended to continue to adhere to the 3.55 positions first, waiting for further news ! Updated: RED POWER Reply - only 3.55 brush Brush risk 3.55 upgrade to the official 4.21. Hard down the machine can brush . The -------------------------------------------- system can say with certainty , which is a system of 4.21, rather than 3.55 camouflage like. PSV data management in the figure above icon is irrefutable evidence! -------------------------------------------- next game testing: Monster Hunter P3 HD - running OK because the host comes with the MM version is too old, does not support the load directly into the game to install PSP REMASTER Then copy the the game ontology install PKG USB hard disk to install the installation is complete, XMB appears Click for the MHP3 the icon to enter GOGOGO 2, Dynasty Warriors MR2 HD - running OK and Monster Hunter P3 HD game external use MM Loading install icon in the XMB (I do not know why, MHP3 not life and death to this icon, I thought it was the MM version) installed then XMB game icon. Click to go running OK so far, the PSP REMASTER the game test come to an end, no accident, then, the light tone HD should be no problem. This is also further proof, RED POWER 4.21CFW real 4.21 system. Love summer alchemical Kobo Chinese version - run OK directly load the game in MM return to the XMB can be run. (Do not Tucao that MM's name, I do not know why, get host MM title Genji, estimated the MM changes when useful to Genji SFO) after 10 minutes of installation officially entered the game the names perfect game (this broken TV box is not very clear, but still be able to see it orz), so this is not with the Japanese version of the patch in the DEX run Oh 4 Bleach Soul burning the Chinese version - run OK load the game, return to the XMB can be run directly in MM. Moves to table the perfect garbled, not the U.S. version of the finished patch (continue to the AV terminal urine quality kneeling) Disgaea 4 Chinese version - run OK directly load the game in MM Back XMB run that can. 6, Double Dragon (PSN) - run OK to install the official PKG file, then. edat authority of MM FTP sent to Double Dragon icon / dev_hdd0/home/00000001/exdata / run directly XMB can PES2013 - running OK directly load the game in MM, return to the XMB can be run. Resident Evil 6 DEMO - running OK directly install the official PKG file, XMB test on this game icon to run the game, nothing measurable tomorrow going to retest Hatsune EX it wants in the game test Some details: 1, confirmed before the release of the 3.41 & 3.55 crack EBOOT should be directly (tested with destruction company Pacific Squadron WWII, the game ontology is 3.55 cracked the EBOOT) , TB (JB2)'s, EBOOT mishap , it is estimated that 99% not 3 MM loaded higher than the 3.55 version of the game will be prompted if you want to modify the SFO was 3.55. Select "Yes" or "No" can be a normal game. This 3.55 MM change because the system directly, but masked this feature of the MM cause it will prompt OTL although no real significance. 4, genuine disk run no problem, test the journey of the Chinese version, the Chinese version of the Tokyo Jungle -------------------------------- ---------------- homebrew aspects: to my host comes with two homemade program - one OM is a MM. The MM version also comes quite old, and can be seen with a 3.55 MM reform OM can not run, MM can. Find someone to study these two procedures of 4G rods Discuss Topic. Tuesday 02 October, found that the signature is different. In addition, their own test to install the latest version of the MM and openps3ftpsplit of, can run, so it should be, and the team claimed - the system can not run other homebrew !

      If we're required to be on cfw 3.55 to install cfw 4.21, then I highly think it probably been spoofed to make sales. Unless someone out there can confirm that there is a slight issue? And it could be that they're using the key from cfw 3.55 to inject the cfw 4.21?

      One of the reason I mention this is because I recall that Lv2 peek was being explored and that there was some issues with attempting to bypass it. Seem like Sony used a key that generate random key between the BD and the system and that the key within the game itself and the system are probably generating the same key to ensure that it within the proper cheksum or such.

      Remember, this is strictly my opinion. I'm not a devs nor an I'm an expert.

      Dean has already debunked the Blue Power thingy. His mmCM update doesn't have anything to do with the Chinese theory on 4.21 CFW! It's a separate thing. His work WILL NOT require a dongle. That's my opinion!

As simple as that - that way nothing is hidden in 'their system/manager' and is available in the regular public mM version. I know for sure that their firmware uses hermes because I saw how the payload and stuff is loaded in that leaked eboot.bin, hence I mentioned it in mM's changelog.
      I have read every post in this thread. So far, so good. Keep it clean guys and girls. And please keep on topic. We value your input.

      This could be some pretty good news.

      As with past firmwares, I will sit back for a few Weeks and watch what happens.
      Luckily this may come out while I am on an extended road trip. I refuse to make changes to my ps3 while I am traveling just in case something weird happens.
      The ps3 is my only form of entertainment (other than reading books) late in the evening while I travel.
      Could give it a good chance to see the possibility of problems arising before I take a chance on it. Because I am patient on this type of thing,I was able to avoid the waninkoko disaster.

      I'm not saying that will happen, but one never knows when something new hits for all of us.

      Is there a need to get shitty about it? The article talks about Red Power and it's compatibility with mM, saying it won't need a dongle. I said I wasn't going to believe in it til I saw it. You replied saying it WILL need a dongle, i.e completely contradicting the news story. Then you go on to say that there's two different 4.21 CFWs being discussed (something that I haven't seen anything about until now). Maybe if the reporting was clearer there wouldn't be confusion, it's not about anyone "not listening", just muddy journalism.

      Seems that this is not a real CFW 4.x but a simple hack that need 3.55 CFW and that let your ps3 accept signed binary with 4.x key.
      Aka a better spoOf (cause it accepts 4.x eboot) but not a real CFW 4.x that can be installed & used with new PS3 stucked on 4.x OFW !!! You are so a dreamer...This is not as good as people expected : sorry to kill your hope !
    1. Gradius's Avatar
      Gradius -
      Yeah, looks like just a hack for fake 4.21 under 3.55. So the games will "guess" you're under 4.21 while in reality you're still using 3.55. Nothing trully news here, this is exactly what the last FW TB does. But not having the need for a dongle anymore, this is great, nothing the less.
