Questions about upgrading from 3.55 to rogero 4.3 v2

Hello everyone,

I have some questions about going to rogero 4.3 v2.
I have multiman 04.13.00 installed and it is saying that my console is now on Firmware 3.55 (SC-36 | Hermes).
It is a FAT model and have never updated it more than 3.55

I know i have to enable QA before doing anything.
Do I First have to go to Rogero 3.55 before updating to Rogero 4.3 V2 or can i do it directly from my version?
Do I have to rechange all my eboots to the original ones or will my games still work with the custimized eboots?
My games are on 2 external HDD of 500 Gb's each, can it read it from the 2 hard drives at the same time?
If I don't like it, can I still return to 3.55 kmeaw like it never happened?

I don't care if i can play online or not.
I want to do this because it seems easier to play the newest games.

Thx in advance !
May the Scene be with you !

Rogero himself says that the proper and safe way is to do it like this:
3.55 CFW ---> 3.55 OFW ---> 4.30 CFW
These should be done, preferably, via Recovery mode.

I think your current multiMAN supports 4.30 versions because it is resigned for it. Even if it doesn't you can always download another one for 4.30 CFW.

I didn't enable QA Flag or anything while updating my console (guess I was over confident :) ). All my eboot fixed games work on the new version without any hassle. Yes, multiMAN can read two HDDs at the same time and you can load a game from either.

And you can downgrade to 3.55 kmeaw using the downgraders at any time, but I doubt you would want that. Its much easier to play games now. No waiting for fixes and etc... Its working flawlessly for me. :)

Allright!

thx a lot
I will do it right now and let you know if everything went ok :)

Good luck... Hope everything goes well

It's working :D

I updated back to 3.55 OFW and then directly to Rogero 4.3 V2
I didn't installed the QA but everything is working just fine :)

:o

anyways, glad its working!! Hope you dont run it to any problems. Happy Gaming. :)

Well ...

I thought it was working but fore some reason when I run games from hdd nr 1 without hdd nr 2 being inserted they work.
But from the moment that I insert hdd nr 2 the games won't work anymore.
The games are showned fine in multiman but when I start them from XMB I first have a black screen and then it automaticly returns to XMB.

Weird, it seems it doesn't work with 2 hdd's after all :(

thats interesting. i thought it would work when i saw all the games listed but i never tried to start a game while two hdds are plugged in. Have u tried select+x? Any change?

Yes i did try select + x and it doesn't work.

But i discovered something.
I have 2 HDD's one with usb 2.0 and one with usb 3.0
I will call the one with usb 2.0 "HDD1" and the one with usb 3.0 "HDD2"

When I start my ps3 with both HDD's inserted and I start a game from HDD1 it works.
When I close the game and start a game from HDD2 it also works. But ..
When I try to start a game from HDD1 again after that it will not start, I can choose the game and multiman will load it correctly but when I start it from XMB I first get a black screen and then a return to XMB.
When I try to start a game from HDD2 after the failure of HDD1 it will start a game and it will work!

I tried it otherwise to see if it depends on the HDD that I first start but it is always my HDD1 that will not work after starting a game from HDD2.

this is really anoying and I think I will go back to kmeaw if I don't find a solution to this problem.
Am i the only one getting this problem?

Well dude, you got a weird problem. I had once connected my 1tb hdd and my friend's 2tb hdd together, and multiman read it perfectly. Thing is I didnt try and run games. I just copied games off one on to the other.

Personally that wouldnt be a big problem for me. I would just letter the HDDs, like HDD1 for games A-M and HDD2 for games M-Z. multiman will be less bulky too.

but you can always downgrade if you dont like the new CFW. Personally I love it because I can run latest disc games with out having to copy them and apply a fix.

Here is my tip if you are planning for a downgrade: READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!!

P.S: if its possible, report the problem to Deank.
