(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Okay guys im seeing alot of people have been bricked on there cfws ps3s from the 4.21 cfw DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK. I also know that this number CECH-2001A PS3 is among the unlucky bricks after installing one of the new CFW's by BlueDisk or Rogero. It seems that it does not matter what model you have. Right now it's a crap shoot on whether or not you will be among the unlucky paper weight owners.


I've been seeing countless reports of bricks using these new firmwares. Rogero has stated that he is working on an updated version that is safer but nothing is 100% foolproof so take this warning to heart.

IF YOU DO NOT OWN A HARDWARE FLASHER DO NOT INSTALL ANY NEW CFW UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

You're Goddamn Right
most bricks have been caused by people upgrading from reactpsn/trueblue or people with downgraded ps3's

to be safe(r) , i would restore to OFW 3.55, restore system defaults and rebuild file system / database.

I think I'll wait for a more stable release. 3.55 does everything I need it to do. I love my emulators, which is my main reason for having a CFW PS3.

You can fix this with a new a e3 flasher or progskeet maybe try the lvo+lv2 n brick fix pup that was released ages ago m8

it isnt m3
If it's true that they changed LV0 and stuff, this cfw will soon enough become useless anyway.

These few games that run on 4.21 aren't really worth the effort / trouble.
