YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:tits::dance::pedo:

Sorry for being a noob here, haven't really payed attention to the scene that much. But you do still need a USB dongle for this correct? You can't just use a regular usb?

No, this is a CFW (Custom Firmware), you don't need to use the USB dongle. For this to work you just need a regular USB.

This is a CFW that allows you to run homebrews, the most important one as of right now is the backup manager because of game backups and playing from an HDD, they are working on a backup manager for 3.55, that way we can play game from an HDD, multiMAN for 3.55 was released some hours ago, it does NOT allow you to play backups but you can make backups already! Hope I didn't confuse you...

Thanks dude, I got it

I don't understand what this does and how to download it and what to download, can someone help me please.

This CFW allows you to run homebrews, until 3 days ago we could only run homebrews with a USB dongle.

Thanks, what do these allow me to do on my ps3?

SNES9x for 3.55-JB - Nintendo Emulator
Awesome File Manager for 3.55 - File manager, that's it lol
multiMAN for 3.55 - As for now, only making backups, loading them isn't working on 90% of the games.
PS3 FTP Server v1.2 for 3.55 - FTP server that allows you to share things from your PC to PS3 and vice-versa, one of the most popular uses of this is to create challenge lobbies.

thanks, do you know how to make a challenge lobby?
