Q&A
Q: Will I need special hardware (e.g. flasher, dongle, modchip etc.)?
A: No.
Q: Will homebrew work?
A: With NPDRM fixed, yes. Showtime would certainly be possible.
Q: Will recent games play correct?
A: Yes, its 3.7x, sure it plays all 1.00 - 3.7x games.
Q: Will PSN work?
A: Yes, its 3.7x, sure goes online without problems.
Q: Does it have Peek & Poke?
A: No. Peek & Poke require modifying lv1 and lv2.
Q: Do Backup manangers (e.g. MultiMAN, Rogero etc.) work?
A: No, see previously answer about Peek & Poke.
Q: Will my old homebrew still work?
A: No. All homebrew need the fixed NPDRM. Homebrew that relies on specific other patched functions/syscalls (e.g. Peek&Poke, BDemu etc.) will not work either, see previously answer about Peek & Poke.
Q: Does it gets us keys?
A: No.
Q: Does it gets us "CFW"/MFW?
A: No.
Q: Does OtherOS++ (Linux/FreeBSD) work?
A: No. Sony removed OtherOS feature after 3.15 and OtherOS++ relies on modifying the firmware. See previous "CFW"/MFW question.
Q: Will it allow downgrade?
A: No.
Q: Does it work on all PS3 models?
A: Yes. all current models.
Q: Are there brick risks?
A: No (standard disclaimer: It will be tested rigorously before release as you can expect from anything that KaKaRoTo has put his name on).
Q: Will this only work on 3.7x?
A: No. It was pretested on 3.60 and again confirmed on 3.73 before any public Tweet about it.
Q: What if Sony releases 3.74/3.80 before release
A: In that case it will be pretested on that version.
Q: So why are all the newssites hyping this that it does give CFW?
A: Because they don't read wiki's/blog's xD Besides, every minor news gets 'prolly CFW soon!' tagged by the bad ones.
Q: Is there a release date?
A: No, besides KaKaRoTo not able to work on it for 2 weeks, it also relies on (other people) fixing NPDRM.

And where does it say it is?? DUH
READ B4 POSTING!!!!!!!

Ur new and everything... but the first thing your doing after registering is trolling? No wonder your rep is 0.
Not even worth groaning...

Nice, like it quite a bit.

If You read what he is saying, this isnt a cfw at all or something like a jailbreak really... he's trying to sign the package files like ftp server. or homebrew so they run on the ps3 im guessing i cant think of any other method lol.

READ the part about the pkg's [07:28:39] heri, docpaul showtime would work fine
[07:28:58] kakaroTo, this means new tcl patches for mfw and some changes to manage 3.73 ?
[07:29:17] ddoo, and no I didn’t fix the npdrm algo, that’s what I’m missing (hence the “kind of” but I’m not
working on that, that’s someone else’s job
[07:30:05] gonna debut it at ccc kakaroto or before?
[07:30:06] ddoo, and even if npdrm signing worked.. how do you install your pkg on an OFW 3.73 ? :p
[07:30:22] so KaKaRoTo, once the NPDRM algo is fixed, a release will come?
[07:31:14] heri, another missing bit, but once that’s fixed, yes
[07:31:23] but I’ll probably be off country for the next 2 weeks
[07:31:30] so all work will have to be paused :p
[07:31:52] oh, fair enough. we can all wait 2 weeks hey we have waited months anyways
[07:32:06] ddoo, that might work.. you could also just install your pkg on 3.55 then upgrade…
[07:32:20] ddoo, upgrading doesn’t delete any of your packages :p
[07:32:37] ddoo, issue is, you’re lost if you didn’t do it before upgrading
[07:32:53]
but they fail because the npdrm algo is spoted by the checks in 3.56+
[07:33:13] heri, also note, I “announced” it because I was excited to see it work as expected
[07:33:22] doesn’t mean it’s ready for release
[07:33:31] ddoo, exactly
[07:33:36] yeh thats what we were saying just before you came
[07:33:43] so you need : 1 – npdrm algo fixed, 2 – a way to install stuff
[07:33:53] you only announce when you are confident it works
[07:33:58] 1 has been done by someone else (don’t know if he’ll share it), and 2.. well, I just did it :p
[07:34:37] heri, well, I was testing on 3.60 and it worked, but yes, I did upgrade to 3.73 to test that it still
works just to make sure I don’t tweet any false hopes
[07:34:46] but you cant run what you installed until 1 is fixed correct?
[07:34:59] middleman, exactly
[07:36:17] interesting
[07:36:19] nice, thx KaKaRoTo
[07:36:40] * KaKaRoTo needs to hide now if he wants to get any work done
[07:36:42] ttyl

no cfw, no keys, no downgrade, no backups. whats the point?

hey sorry if this is a dumb Q. but will we be able to host with this ? :/

The point is you use homebrew and install .pkgs meaning modded lobbies and such. This is a huge step in getting closer to cracking an actual 3.72 CFW

Only if he finds a way to install .pkgs and run them (which he is working on still). You need to be able to install .pkgs to host because you need to install FTP servers onto your ps3 to put patches on your ps3. So far he has succeeded in running homebrew but hes still working on .pkgs
