Basically, on PlayStation Home. They blocked CFW Consoles from going online, when they were underneath the current firmware. They did this as a hot-fix, similar to the trophy sync.
What they did, was checking the headers (user-agent) when PS Home made requests to the files. The user-agent actually exposes your firmware, and even when you spoof it says 4.46 if that's your CFW.
What we did was grabbing 4.50 libhttp.sprx and replaced it, that made PlayStation Home work. I'm thinking that we need 4.66 libhttp.sprx in order to make the trophies sync. The issue is that when I tried to replace a libhttp.sprx from 4.66 into 4.46 it keeps freezing when I start my browsers and attempt to make web requests.
Anyone able to test and see if this is the case here too, perhaps some way to change 4.46 to 4.66 (To the current firmware).
The PlayStation Home HotFix, were actually an idea I gave a PlayStation Home Developer which they then leaked to Sony. Sony then applied it to PlayStation Home. We could still edit this in memory to change 4.46 to 4.50 to bypass it.. Basically changing the user-agent version.
There are plenty of sprx's that aren't being spoofed when you use spoofer, this is one of them that were checked in the Playstation Home HotFix.
It's extremely easy for games to determine CFW's with this. A simple web request could do it, even you can do it yourself and block CFW's with htaccess etc. Either way, if this doesn't fix the trophy sync it will defiantly reduce the risk of being banned from games.
How a OFW PS3 Would look when you make request:
Mozilla/5.0 (PLAYSTATION 3 4.66) AppleWebKit/531.22.8 (KHTML, like Gecko)
How a CFW PS3 Would look when you make a request:
Mozilla/5.0 (PLAYSTATION 3 4.46) AppleWebKit/531.22.8 (KHTML, like Gecko)
This can be hotfix'd server sided, so curious if that's what Sony did.

So does that mean that this hot fix also included banning a lot again as well? or do you mean it just reduces the chance in general.

The chances in general, each time you load a game and the game load remote resources through web requests they are able to get your firmware. Changing this to ofw firmware would make them think it's a normal ps3

No idea. I haven't been banned my self at least and I am spoofing that to 4.60 (I need help to spoof it to 4.66)

When I go to checkyourinfo.com/request in the browser on rebug 4.65.2 with spoof I see 4.66, and I still get the trophy error.
