(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Alright so a couple hours ago I updated to Waninkoko's CFW, and it works great (CECH-2001A).

Backups work, etc. But, on most of my backups now, when I launch them my PS3 freezes during the launch process. I'm not sure if it's the CFW or just my PS3. It's pretty ****in hot in my room right now, so I'm hoping its that.

Anyone else having this problem?

UPDATE: Seems to freeze a lot while going to in-game XMB, and the onlt way I can power my console down is by pulling the power cord out, which scares me.

My suggestion is don't use this FW, a more stable one will be out soon hopefully.

"OMG OMG OMG OMG don't patch lv2. Don't do it, you'll brick your console."

So Geohot and fail0verflow get sued but this clown who releases CFW that bricks PS3s doesn't?

Wait so the backups work after you went back to geos or did geos replace Waninkokos?

No the backups dont boot up on geohotz fw, even though they are still on hdd,most games work on geohotz anyway.Just takes a bit longer.I think al wait on a more stable patched lv\2 cfw.

Im over this Waninkoko CFW, Its bullshit! Actually im over all 3.55 CFW's. With every 1 of these CFW's we all have problems. Either We gotta patch it, black screens, infinite boot load, install some shit or the cfw wont let us run backups at all. I shoulda have never updated my PS3 from 3.41..
