    Hi guys, been away from the scene for a bit, I been on a JB 3.41 since the JB ever came out and have no problems with it regarding home brew and playing my backups via external/internal HDD

    My question is should I stay on 3.41 or update to 3.55 CFW?

    What are the pros and cons?

    Or should I just stay on 3.41?

    Any advice or tips are greatly appreciated in regards on what I should do, thanks a lot!

    and quick side question, 3.41 requires the USB dongle to boot up in JB mode, for the 3.55 CFW, is that USB dongle still required to boot into JB or since its running on a CFW every time the PS3 boots up its already in JB mode?

    and I have a phat ps3

    I was in the same boat as you, I have a 60 gig phat and made the jump to Kmeaw CFW a couple hours ago and loving it. All the games I play work, synced my trophies and the best part no more need for a dongle, just boot up and go.

    thanks man, I think I just might do the update, now b4 I do, since im on already JB 3.41, can I update to OCF 3.55 just like that then continue with the process of making a CFW 3.55 or do I have to delete the jb files on 3.41 before I update?

    thanks in advance

    better stay on 3.41 and if want to play online upgrade to 3.55 Geohot cfw

    btw WANINKOKO & KMEAW CFW base on PL3

    which mean a lot of random XMB crashes

    I have 4 ps3

    3.01
    3.41x2
    3.55 GeoHot CFW
    shagratt71 : "To obtain this package please make a minimum of a US $2.00 force donation

    Star Wars sucks because George Lucas ripped off shagratt71 and i just donate $349.99 for a new ps3

    He's working his way to screw us all... Change all the PS3 homebrew to donationware

    +100 to that, i have an old ceche01 BC and it was very unstable. actually couldnt get to a save point in dead rising 2 it was so bad. xmb crashed 20 times atleast in the hour or so i had it. tried lv2 and syscall35 to no avail. as long as i can convert 3.5 eboots im stickin with 3.41. forgot to mention that even after recovring psn account my original psn were no good downloaded joe danger, ftp and install pkg on xmb, fails with a code. even netlix simply kicks u back to xmb even after udtating it on kmeaws. psn access wasnt all that great. i ll find the ones i already bought and put them back on 3.41 eventually.

    I'm pulling the trigger as we speak. I have installed OFW 3.55, am about to install the KMEAW one, which as far as I can tell has received good feedback and isn't bricking anyone.

    Then, I'm going to try Gaia 2.01.
