Horny
I WILL CONTINUE TESTING FOR OTHER BUGS
The following were found in CFW 3.55 Version 1.1 (THEY ARE ALREADY FIXED)
New version Resolves these issues
Can be found here: You must login or register to view this content.
As some of you are aware the first PS3 CFW has arrived which could be good for the hacking community, HOWEVER though feature are added through this, this actually takes away some as well.
Note the following are missing (hidden) from the PS3
-Data Utility
-SAVE DATA
-PS2/PS1/MINIS SAVE DATA
-Anything Under GAME IS MISSING
So Download at Your own risk, although Gamesave still work there is no way of backing them up the easy way (FTP once it gets sign), same with game utilities, you install no way of unistalling them. Although i Formated my system prior to this the option were still there and other users on other forums are reporting (nonformated) that there options are missing aswell.

Anyway just wanted to test this out for some of you guys, I would hold off for a bit before you download this so that fixes can be applied.
I will continue my testing.
Please report any bugs so i can edit the post an add them.
Also this is more of a Proof of concept that the idea works

So using recovery menu is the only way to get official Sony firmware back? And using recovery mode do you lose all gamesaves etc?

my facts are correct as many other users reported the same thing. It might be just for fat, however i doubt since the FIRST wave of CFW had the same script. The new One has everything working again. (updated Script that's why it's fine for most)
Also here a video link prooving it more
