(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); First CFW working. Grab You must login or register to view this content., then “./create_cfw.sh PS3UPDAT.355.PUP CFW.PUP”. Permanently adds “install pkg files” menu.

I’m playing with it now… I’ll report back later. In the meantime:

1. Download ps3 utilities and ps3 tools from github / team fail0verflow:
*

git clone You must login or register to view this content.

*

cd ps3utils

*

make

*

cd ..

*

git clone git://git.fail0verflow.com/ps3tools.git

*

cd ps3tools

*

make

*

cp pkg unpkg ../ps3utils

2. Grab the PS3 encryption/decryption/signing keys from github:
*

git clone You must login or register to view this content. ~/.ps3

3. Download PS3 3.55 (or whatever official firmware PUP) from here
4. Extract and copy “PS3UPDAT.PUP” to the “ps3utils” directory
5. Create the PS3 Custom Firmware (CFW) from the original/official update (OFW):
*

cd ps3utils

*

./create_cfw.sh PS3UPDAT.PUP CFW.PUP

6. Copy and rename CFW.PUP to a USB storage device keeping this directory structure in mind: /PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP
7. Connect that USB device to your PS3 and install from Settings -> System Update

If you’re currently running 3.41 (or earlier) you can either remain there and create a specific CFW PUP for that version, or you can upgrade to a later PS3 firmware version, like 3.55 for example. It’s whatever original PUP file you use — only you cannot flash a version lower than the current version installed on your PS3. So if you’re already at 3.55, where you’re unable to downgrade, then for the moment you have no other choice but CFW (or OFW) 3.55. 3.41 on the other hand: upgrade or create CFW 3.41 and for the interim you’re still able to jailbreak and run unsigned ‘brews. See the other notes below.

Other things to note:

1. This CFW does not modify the kernel in any way, meaning all the current compiled homebrew out there will not install or run using “Install Package Files” from the XMB.
2. With the above point in mind you should know this CFW does not enable piracy. No piracy, no backups
— straight homebrew.
3. Current PS3 homebrew and new homebrew will need to be “retail” packaged and signed; that’ll happen with fail0verflow’s tools.
4. This is only the beginning. Prepare yourself for utter and absolute awesomeness.

Update: Flashing 3.55-KaKaRoTo now!

Update: And success! She flashed without bricking! Mind you, as jjolano reports via the comments, many XMB items under the GAME menu are missing: Trophies, Game Data Utility, Save Data, etc… Games (disc loaded) still boot, install and play however. I’m online with PSN too. Go Netflix!

Update: I’ve converted two PUPs for you: 3.55 and 3.41. Grab ‘em.

Update: Depending on your situation you may need to install the CFW PUP from the PS3 Recovery Menu. To do that, follow these steps:

1. Ensure the PS3UPDAT.PUP is in /PS3/UPDATE/ on your USB device.
2. Power down the PS3.
3. Now press and hold the power button, the system will startup and shutdown again.
4. Release the power button, then press & hold power again, you’ll hear one beep followed by two consecutive beeps.
5. Release power then follow the on-screen instructions. You’re now in the recovery menu.
6. Connect the USB device and select “System Update.”
7. Hope for the best.

Thanks for the tip, Carlos. Note: you can restore OFW using the above method too.

Update: KaKaRoTo has fixed the missing XMB menu items and also enabled is PS1/PS2 support for backward compatible models. So here are new PUPs for your flashing pleasure.

Download: PS3 CFW 3.41 | PS3 CFW 3.55

Congratulations to you, KaKaRoTo! Cheers!

+REP IF I HELPED

This is just a tutorial on how to compile KaKaRoTo's CFW, which has been posted before...

where show me on THIS site and i will have this thread deleted

which is unnecessary, because we have the modified .pup already.

I can't find once, because it was posted 3 days ago and by now the compiled .PUP was already released and all the threads about the full compiled .PUP have overtaken the tutorials on how to compile it..

yea this for people that dont wanna be like every body else
