(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); **UPDATE: You can do this from Geohots or Orginal Firmware. Doesn't Matter**
** Yes, you can still play online**
** No, You don't lose game saves or anything when you do this. Unless it bricks lol**
** Signed Backup Manager For Waninkoko is available below!**

1. It's Simiple, Get a Usb stick (Make sure it's FAT32) So the ps3 can read it.
2. Then On the Root of your Usb, Make sure You name a Folder Called "PS3".
3. Then Click the "PS3" Folder you have just made, then Inside that Make another Folder Called "UPDATE"
4. Should be something like this before you use the usb " /PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP"
5. From there you download Waninkoko's CFW then you put that file into the "UPDATE" Folder.
Flash it from Settings -> System Update (or the Recovery Menu if you need to),

Similar as Geohot's Cfw. However you install Geohot's CFW, Do the Exact same. And Make sure the folders of the PS3 is All Caps or It will not read the USB.

People have been bricked on Slim PS3 Due to reasons, Some Ps3 Slim may fail, and Some may Pass. Please make sure you know what you are doing if not, do not go further. Go and research before you go further.

Any Problems, Any Questions, Please ask.

Well, so far there have been no issues with the slim ones, a couple of my mates installed it on their PS3 Slim and have had no issues.

You can use FTP Mate, but as far as i know, you need to have FTP installed via GEOHOT firmware before installing this one.

Same as gunhead88 post above.

Please, only use at your own risk, just because it worked for some people with the same model doesnt mean it will work for you.

The chances that it wont at slim, but nevertheless, there is always a risk.

Hi, I'm kind of new to this whole thing, So basically I can install this and play downloaded games that I install via " Install package Files" ? Are there anyother steps? And what are the risks?
And what else does it do besides allow you to play downloaded games?
