Post: Backups not working on Kmeaw CFW?
02-01-2011, 05:47 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey guys...I've used Wutangrza's CFW with Geohot's CFW so I would be running on Geohot's CFW with peek and poke enabled but recently I saw a couple people saying that if I used Kmeaw's CFW the time it would take to back up games would be about 1/2 less than if I was using Geohot's CFW...

I decided to give Kmeaw's CFW a try...installed the OFW and then installed Kmeaw's CFW...

I installed the latest multiMAN back up manager and I remembered that it took me about 24-25 minutes to back up Assassin's Creed (the first one) on Geohot's CFW...so I decide to back up Assassin's Creed again just to see if there really is a time difference between backing up games...

it said 17 minutes till AC was backed up...meaning there was a difference in time between Geohot's CFW and Kmeaw's CFW...

It got to about 99% and then suddenly my PS3 freeze's...I leave my PS3 for about 10 minutes and come back to see that it is still frozen...I unplug my PS3 and attempt to back up Assassin's Creed...it reaches 99% and freezes again! :(

I get GTA: IV out and attempt to back that game up...99% and then my PS3 freezes again! :(

I unplug my PS3 and it says that GTA: IV and AC are backed up on my HDD I attempt to load them but sadly it gives me a black screen...I prefer to have less waiting time since I have about 40-50 games (which I own) I wish to back up. So help please =D

Extra Info.
I have a 1tb PS3 HDD so don't say I'm going to run out of space.

Well I don't know a solution but maybe reinstalling multiMAN or kmeaw's firmware would help.

Do you have the right .pkg file of multiMAN? Make sure you're not using the one made for Geohot's.

Yes I have attempted to re-install both multiMAN and Kmeaw's but still no luck :(

I have two .pkg's

one made for Geohot's and the other for Kmeaw's and of course I'm using the one made for Kmeaw's CFW Smile

Try Gaia's manager for backing up games. I've looked at threads with people of the same problem, then they tried Gaia... and it worked!

I have to go now, so for further assistance just Google: PS3 backups stop 99%

Hope I've helped in any way.
