Will there be a proper 4.25 CFW?

Just wondering if there will be a proper 4.25 CFW which doesn't require 3.55? Thanks

There is no chance in hell of that happening sorry. To do it you'd need keys from sony themselves.

Not exactly true as atm we have lv0 keys...there isnt anymore "needed keys from sony".

So yes,proper 4.00+ CFW IS Possible,its just gonna take a bit.

No, you still need the keys from Sony. This is not the same as lv0 keys. The firmware is signed with private keys and verified with public keys. The private keys cannot calculated with the public ones. Google PGP to see how a scheme like this works.

The only hope is finding a flaw in the firmware.

Which I doubt we'll find, people have been looking for this flaw for quite some time now.
Your best bet is to buy an E3 flasher.
Even if we do find said flaw wouldn't we still have no way of signing PKG files?
I guess we'll have more access with CFW 4.30 open to the devs and able to be truly looked at but I doubt there's much change from 3.55.
There could be a chance it could happen, but I'd say wait another half a year to find out.
