Tutorial:
Rename the downloaded file to PS3UPDAT.PUP.

Create a folder on the root(not already in any folders) of a usb and call it PS3.

Create a folder in the ps3 folder on the usb called UPDATE.

Then copy the PS3UPDAT.PUP into the update folder.

Then put the usb into your ps3, go to system update and update by device or whatever.

For example, I put the PS3UPDAT.PUP in the Folder F:/PS3/UPDATE/

NEW FEATURES IN THIS FIRMWARE:

-Other OS capability

-Save data utility put back in

UNTRUE MYTHS ABOUT THIS CFW


MYTH #1 This gets rid of my saves and game data!! Truth:This isn't true, it has save data utility and game data utility there in this new cfw download

MYTH #2 This will brick your PS3. Answer: no this will not brick your PS3, I have done it myself on two ps3s and it works fine.

MYTH #3 Sony can find people with this and ban them. Truth: No they can't, it runs exactly the same as official 3.55.

MYTH #4 You can't go online with this. Truth:You can go online, proof of this is the screenshot provided by xd366 as he's online with the custom firmware.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q:Whenever I put my usb with the firmware in it doesn't get recognised and says there is No applicable data found?

A: This means your doing something wrong, make sure the ps3 folder is on the root of your USB, for example mine was in F:/PS3/UPDATE if it was like that and doesn't work, then try a different usb device.

Also try this if all that doesn't work:
if your PS3 is still saying "no applicable update data was found" this is what to do,
1. Plug in your USB device with the update on it into a usb slot on the PS3.
2. Turn your PS3 off from the PS button
3. Hold the power button on the PS3 until the PS3 turns off again
4. Once the PS3 turns off again hold the power button until the ps3 beeps twice
5. Now a menu will come up, go to system update
6. Now just do what it tells you to do and it will install the update


Q: Can I host challenge lobbies on 3.55 or higher with this?

A: Not as of yet, you will only be able to do so once a FTP server program and backup manager is signed as official making it usable with CFW so you can put the patches and whatnot onto your PS3.


Q: When I try to run .pkgs, they don't work?

A: This is because they aren't signed as official.

Chill the F*** out. You're not doing anything to contribute to the making of the FTP and Backup Manager. So stop complaining and wait.

In general if you browse these forums, when it is released you'll know because it will go crazy with people asking for help and tutorials on what they need to do.

The only problem you're having is not reading the post that has already stated these problems. You'll find out when you need to. Now wait and stop complaining.

It wont work, you will first need to download the CFW, then wait for a signed Pkg's like the ftp server and homebrew to be released.

Okay. So what happens when sony releases a new update? Will I still be able to go online? Should I buy another ps3 just in case?

Once a WORKING makeself is made all users will ask for is a signed FTP app, and
then start making youtube videos rofl

btw whoever made this should work on their .xml editing, and know that restoring otheros
is going to be a TINY BIT harder than just replacing a file in the firmware. I would be carefull
from where you download custom firmware like this, if they **** up LV2 your FUC.KED


yes but there a tutorial on who to reverse it "every little thing is gona be alright"
