View Latest Updates Below: Today, PSX-SCENE member RazorX brings everyone a new 3.55 CFW he created with PS3MFW Builder, PS3Ultimate. Along with this release, he has also shared the tcl files he made for use with PS3MFW Builder, including a 3.70 Spoof. RazorX hopes other members will help with along the way, as he continues developing PS3Ultimate. Read the following for the current specs of this project:

Currently, there are three different versions: 3.66 Spoofed, 3.70 Spoofed, and 3.55 Unspoofed. NOTE: With the versions that come SPOOFED, the only way to revert back to another FW is though Recovery Menu.

Hi all, this is a 3.55 CFW Ive just finished creating with PS3MFW Builder. It is setup in a way I think everyone will like, here is some of the options I set:

- Patched Lv1 Hypervisor
- Patched Lv2 Kernel
- Patched Package Installer
- Patched all self/sprx to secure privacy
- Patched application launcher
- Added homebrew category
- Added Start Game (Disc-less) to game category (/app_home/PS3_GAME/)
- Cleaned unwanted items from XMB
- Patched translations
- Replaced coldboot
- Replaced some RCO files
- Replaced some XML files
- Changed cinavia DRM affected files
- Changed default theme
- Spoofed to 3.70 (3.70 51968 001:CEX-ww)

Here is a image of what it looks like, although i cant take a image of my actual ps3 ive made a image that looks like it so you can see what it looks like..

After you install this CFW, go straight into theme settings and apply the default theme. I would also like to say I'd be very happy to recieve any help. That is going to really improve this CFW further. I have been trying to change the icons on the ingame xmb and the main xmb, to set it up were I dont need the theme. But, I have had little success so far, so any help would be appreciated. I have put the "Start Game (Disc-less)" in games, and the "Install Packages" in debug. In the future I'd very much like to also have the debug settings in there, so if anyone can do this let me know..

To do this firmware I had to create my own tcl files, so I have included them too. Ive also included some altered pkg files for you to try, and by altered I mean the categories changed, and images slightly altered. So enjoy...

UPDATE:

This cfw below has been updated with a 3.70 spoof and i have just installed it and it does now say version 3.70 so if you have installed the previous cfw with the 3.66 spoof just install this straight over the top of it from the recovery menu..

UPDATE 2:

For all you who want unspoofed versions here you go ive also added a spoof_version.tcl for 3.70.

UPDATE 3:

Ive just created a larger theme for my cfw it now has 16 different backgrounds in HD and SD i hope you all like it

And for all of you who want something different and know what to do with rco files ive just created a black theme which i think is fantastic i created every icon but you cant change the psn icon with a theme as far as i know so ive included the rco file to change it, ive also included the normal one to switch back its only 1 rco so its not difficult and let me know what you think so i can use that in a future release thanks..

Instructions aka 1-2-3 UFW (PS3 Ultimate 3.55 CFW):
1. Format USB device FAT32
2. Place PS3UPDAT.PUP in x:/PS3/UPDATE
3. Install via XMB
NOTE: If you are not on OFW 3.55, please download and install that first, the same way you would install NFW. You can find OFW 3.55 here.

Download: REMINDER - the only way to revert back to another FW is though Recovery Menu, unless using Unspoofed version.

Pretty easy. Just update to OFW 3.55 via the recovery menu (or maybe XMB), then install this from the XMB.

I have a question. What core of CFW do you use? KMEAW or Other? And what give us a 3.70 spoof?

This lasest spoof prevents your console from accidentally updating to OFW

so whats benefit from going from 3.55 to this??? does this allow us to play the latest games that released? or are we still waiting on something later than 3.55? I've been away from the scene for awhile so im a bit confused.

I'm guessing this question will always be asked

RazorX,
It's always nice to see new PS3MFW tasks, but for further developing:
PS3MFW is a framework that gives you much more than just a nice GUI, and I was disappointed when I saw that the only thing your tasks do is to copy & paste files.
For XML files, you could use PS3MFW's XML parser, and edit instead of replacing it.
For RCO files you could use rcomage that has full support in 0.2, unpack the RCOs, edit all XML files (again, with PS3MFW's XML parser), and than repack it.
You don't even need to use any command to unpack/repack it - the framework will do it for you.

If you need help, join #ps3mfw at EFnet, you could also see how to use rcomage and the XML parser in my homebrew_category.tcl task.

When you develop something - do it right, and only then release it.

Thanks for the questions guys, but I assume it is like any other MFW out there, in the sense that it is the same as the rest. No real major changes to the game, like a JFW DH. Just a really nice CFW one of our members decided to create for everyone here. And we decided to tell everyone about through our front page

I hope that helped.

You are on Cobra CFW? Did you lose Cinavia? I wonder if I could just patch the cinavia with those files you uploaded Or just wait for some type of NFW-Cobra to come out

I have been meaning to write a review forever now, but everytime I turn on the PS3, it seems it is to use Showtime

I think I will go ahead and give this cobra a shot, right after I write my review for ps3usercheat. Testing the following CFWs: Kmeaw, Rebug, Hermes, NFW, Cobra. I know nothing about OtherOS++ or QA Flag

ha ha NFW-Cobra ha ha, the name will be NFWv3.0-CobraUSB (Cinavia disabled files work good) QA flag is still there with NFWv3.0-CobraUSB(beta). I too know nothing about OtherOS++ (I used REBUG-OtherOS++ to QA flag then back to REBUG 3.55.2 (original))

no downgrades possible for 3.70 without the use of a nand/nor flasher and very delicate soldering
