    ok im like minutes away from upgrading from updating to OFW 3.55 due to working BM's available now i have a couple questions.

    I own a Fat Backwards compatible PS3 as we all know the old dongle method for 3.41 disabled the PS2 playback function (maybe even PS1 i dont recall tho i know the virtual memory cards were completely disabled tho, i want to know seeing as how this is almost the same thing as using a dongle if my PS1/2 playback ability will be disabled with these BM methods also.

    Another good question i dont understand witch CFW would best suit me.

    I get the difference, one dose not have the sign PKG function and only patches in peek/poke (Wutangrza) and needs Geohot CFW to install only signed PKG files and the other (Kmeaw) is almost the same as running the old dongle jailbreak we can install unsigned PKG files at it was made to skip the signature file check, HOW EVER both have peek/poke in the LV1 and LV2. so witch one should i install and use?

    A good side note to consider my PS3 is completly blank i have recently done a complete full format of the HDD as it was acting up really badly so there are no pre installed un-signed PKG files to consider.

    Is game compatibility the same for both CFW's as it was for the Jailbreak dongle?

    Can i update the games and expect them to function as they should?

    check this.

    http://psx-scene.com/forums/f187/cfw...rsation-76406/

    People are complain about black screen issues but i'm not having any now.
    I dont use discless option and i guess this option make the most problem playing games.

    but i'm using waninkoko CFW and you dont ever want to use that one on your PHAT PS3.

    right but the main part of my question is will this effect my back wards compatibility like the dongles did as it just implements a payload that used to cripple the BC on the dongles

    also wtf are we using peek/poke for it wasn't on the original PSJB nor the original PSgroove code and those executed back-ups just fine why isent it possible without peek poke on CFW i feel the LV2 patching = BIG BULLSEYE for sony but thats just my thoughts ( i have 2 systems so it dosent really effect me that much) as it patches the kernal

    You can disable/enable payload and no more start+eject start up. I think so far so good. When it does to patching, it does patch like normal payload does which is the memory. And easy to disable with new multiman 1.13.0 for kweaw. After disableing patch you get your backward game compatibility as well as blu-ray and dvd playback. I have tested all kinda things with my phat and everything works as normal. But that doesnt mean it will work for you

    However Waniko does patch lv2 permanently which cause the brick for old nand phat ones.

    good deal thats the kinda reply i was looking for thanks

    ive done quite a bit of reading and it seems that wut+geo is a good route to go think i would like to keep the signed PKG only thing and not skip checks any input on this?

    or perhaps any input on why u chose Kmeaw would help
