Post: MultiMan- "Bye Bye Old firmwares!"
02-13-2013, 10:24 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Deank has released a statement mentioning that he is dropping support for ALL firmwares whether they are CEX or DEX. This includes popular CFWs like Rebug 4.21.2 and PS3ita 4.21 v.9. The change will take place on v5.00.00 which means if you want to stay on a lower firmware then 4.19.00 is the last you can use.

This is a HUGE decision by Deank as many people still use 3.55 CFWs like Kmeaw and 4.XX like Rebug REX. Some have started to speculate that huge firmware revisions will be taking place with Rebug's website going down and now the 4.30 DEX firmware being released. This could lead (IF developers can figure out how Sony patched 4.30+ DEX conversions) to a 4.31 REX firmware and a new 4.3X DEX firmware with better 4.XX support from MultiMan.

If you want to stay on 4.21 or lower CFWs then stay on 4.19.00 MM or switch to Iris Manager.

With multiMAN 05.00.00 only 4.30 and higher firmwares will be supported. Supporting 14 different firmwares is too hard to maintain compatibility with.

These will no longer be supported:

3.41 OFW
3.41 OFW + DONGLE
3.41 MFW (HERMES)
3.55 OFW
3.55 CFW KMEAW
3.55 CFW COBRA
3.55 CFW TB
3.55 CFW REBUG/ROGERO
3.55 OFW DEX
3.55 CFW DEX
4.21 OFW DEX
4.21 CFW REBUG
4.21 CFW ROGERO 1.00..2.03

These and later will be supported:

4.30 CFW ROGERO 2.05..
4.30 CFW REBUG
4.31 CFW

In the beginning mM used to support 1.90/3.00/3.14/3.21 firmwares but then suddenly the new additions started to cause issues with these old firmwares so I leveled up at 3.41. Now 2 years and 6 months later I think it is time to go up again.

Users of unsupported firmwares can stay with 04.19.00 or lower multiMAN version – anyway – it has more than everything one may need. Or switch to Iris.


Me I'm sticking with my PS3ita 4.21 v.9 DEX firmware and I'll live with 4.19.00 but tell me what you think of this decision. Are you angry or upset with it?

{EDIT}To clear some of this up and to back him up on this decision, look the fact is, 4.19.00 is a great release and has very few bugs. There is practically no reasons to stay on 3.55 or 4.21 CFW besides the REX version. 4.30 CFWs can do ALMOST everything that 3.55 can plus more like no patching of games to work.

Deank NEVER said he was going to completely abandon the previous firmwares, he is just not focusing on making it compatible with ALL firmwares, meaning 5.00.00 MAY work on 3.55 but may have bugs that he will not care to fix.

This is a thread from February that isn't a support thread. Make your own thread in the questions section.
