    • It can run games signed with Keys up to version 4.30 without any Eboot/Sprx patching needed
    • Games can be loaded from Disc Icon (with Original game in BD) and from app_home (Disc-less, but not all games).
    • Current 3.55 homebrew applications can't be loaded on this CFW, applications must be re-signed properly for FW4.21/4.30


    ATTENTION:

    1- This CFW doesn't have LV1 checks disabled and can't be installed on Downgraded PS3 consoles unless you have Dehashed/Reset Syscon Properly (if you're not sure about your PS3, Dehash it anyway to avoid any risk) Link ----> Dehashing Tutorial

    2- Always make a NOR/Nand dump using multiMAN or memdump before installing any CFW to have a recovery backup in case of any bricks.
    Having a valid NOR/Nand dump is an essential step before upgrading, because you will always have a way to recover (using hardware flashers) when you have a valid dump.
    ** A Hardware Flasher alone without a valid dump may not fix your bricked PS3 **


    3- The QA flag must be always Enabled on your PS3 for safer upgrading/downgrading operations. Link ----> toggle_qa.pkg

    4- Always use the Recovery Menu while installing this CFW to avoid possible bricks (XMB update works, but Recovery Menu is safer).

    6- Please Check the MD5 of the downloaded PUP file before installing any CFW to avoid possible bricks.

    7- DO NOT HAVE DISC IN PS3 WHEN UPDATING FIRMWARES..As the PS3 will take the UPDATE from the DISC First.

    8- You need to already be on 3.55 to install this. Installing from any firmware other than 3.55 will simply not work

      So to prevent what happened with my other ps3,what is the best way that I can do now with this system?

      I think the Rogero 4.30CFW is the best way if I wanna have it easy with the game downloads?So I just can download every game without fix the eboot.bin...
      But online gaming isn't possible I think?

      Or is it better to for for the 4.21 CFW?

      I suggest,that both of them I can install from recovery mode?
      4.30 CFW is the best choice. PSN DOES actually work. Yes, install them from recovery mode.

      Can you check in mmOS/File manager what are the exact names of both USB HDDs when connected to the HUB or directly? /dev_usb000 -> /dev_usb127

      For the millionth time, No. You need to be on 3.55.

      When they ask don't answer just tell them to read past comments. Especially since it says in the article you need to be on 3.55.

      Hey Dean!

      When both are directly connected to the true ps3 usb ports and I look at them through mmOS/File manager, they are listed as:
      dev_usb000
      dev_usb001

      With all of their folders and games viewable and looking right. On usb000 there is however a GAMEI folder and a file called script_console.txt on the root that I don't recogonize. Not on usb001 though.

      So I tried it by powering down and coming back up with the hub in use and harddrives in there. The drives were listed as:
      dev_usb006
      dev_usb007

      I'm assuming that these usb number choices from the hub were due to what ports I chose. I must have stuck them in a different order too, because the one with the extra folder and file was 007 that time. Again I can open their folders, see the files in there, like everything should be working.

      I'm on 4.30 cfw now,it's amazing!!!All that collection of games till now are possible to play!!!
      I'm happy that I survived the waiting and spend 0 bucks since 3.55 cfw...Know it is really nice to have all these games..

      Only one question,is playing online (not store or something) safe?
      So if i play fifa 13 or something in multiplayer mode,does I have to fear anything?

      Dishonored works for me on R4.21v1.09. I wouldn't update unless you have exhausted every possible option for why it doesn't work. My guess is you got the bad rip of Dishonored that is floating around. If you don't have the disc you should not be playing anyway, but I can tell you the the clandestine rip is a badrip and will not play. There is a duplex rip that will play, but I can only suggest making your own rip from the actual disc if you want to be sure it will play. I repeat: the game WILL play on Rogero4.21v1.09.

      Sniper should work too unless you have not done any reading to discover that you must update/resign eboot for the games which you have patched to work on 3.55...

      From what I've read it seems that it is safe but that you should be using an alternate account, and not your main one...? I am curious about this too. I've never used psn on my ps3 since I've been off ofw and I intend to now that the new cfw's are out. I would like to get my trophies sync'd if possible but I don't want to get the ban hammer.

      I would think you are okay since you haven't been above 3.55. Just my opinion though, I'm no professional.

      Me too! I am in the same boat as you with the same setup i haven't tried using a usb hub yet, I'm glad to know that it does work though, I intend to get a 4tb soon to test if it will work but for now we must use hubs I guess.
