(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello i've read on PS3 DEV Wiki that the 4.23 Software update wich is only available on the shop/kiosk for now, updates or changes the lv0, lv1, and lv2 in Core_OS,
this could mean Sony changed the codes because of the leaks from the past months like the CEX 2 DEX and the 3.60 EBOOT codes,
this could mean that, if there ever comes a jailbreak with the leaked 3.60 keys, it will be only on 3.60-4.21.
maybe if there come new games on later firmware they cant be decrypted.
also updates it a few things in the Dev_Flash but that are some ps2 emulator files.

this thread is to inform you about the next updates, maybe the next firmware update on a retail consoles also "updates" all the lv files
so watch out for an update higher than 4.21, like 4.25 or 4.30, it could contain this!
i should not update till there is any prove its safe to update etc

if this is not important, it may be closed

thanks for reading

You cant revert it back to retail or a lower firmware you or he has to wait till there comes a retail firmware higher than 4.23

Can't mrmacca just downgrade to 4.21 or another lower firmware?

but than you need a flasher for now, hes stuck in it

anybody know how to get threw this

Not sure that this will be truly accurate. Such a major code change (as suggested here) would be an unlikely 4.XX release. As in the past, most major releases prompt a whole new version number. For example the jump from 3.73 to 4.00. Any major changes to how the underlying OS work I can only see being introduced as part of a 5.00 release.

It's possible that even that may not save his PS3. Sometimes when you go on to other types of FW other than OFW, particularly where non-downgradable 3.56+ FW is involved it can be impossible to get out of FW that doesn't work correctly.

I dont think they can patch data transfers,what u mean not to update there's million of ps3 from 3.60 2 4.21 so I don't think it that hard 2 buy one if u update to what's the big deal?

Since sony is patching those supposed things in the next update, I think they're getting nervous about the recent releases of the 3.60 keys, I may be suspecting that a 4.21 jailbreak can be done with those keys..

Nope. It would be the end for most people. But a fair few people would just do it without data transfer - meaning that you do whatever you want as usual, but instead of using data transfer, you have to physically swap the harddrives of the 2 ps3s.
