A Very Busy Day – Rogero 4.30 Release + New versions of MultiMAN, PS Tools and Yet Another Bypass released.
It feels like the dev’s have decided to just smother us in new versions of their goodness today. In my last post I mentioned the E3 4.30 CFW, and in just mere hours there has been a new version of Rogero updated to 4.30, PS Tools, Yet another bypass (allowing PSN access) and a personal favorite;
Closely following the release of E3’s 4.30 CFW, Rogero has released his own. This seems to be a port of his 4.21 CFW to 4.30. This, like the last is a CEX CFW, so again, be sure to dehash your console.
Details on Rogero CEX 4.30 v1.00 CFW:
- XMB Icons issues from in-game PS Button now fixed. You must use the patch included in the download (PS3~dev_blind.zip)
- PSN is fully functional assuming that the passphrase isn’t changed by sony.
- Loading games from App_home icon fixed.
- Runs games signed with Keys up to 4.30 without Eboot/Sprx patching.
- Games can be run from the disc icon (with the game placed in the BD) and from app_home (does not require a disc, however not all games are compatible)
- Compatibility issues with the PS3 models fixed.
- 3.55 homebrew apps cannot be loaded. Must be patched to 4.21!
- This CFW does not have LV1 checks disabled. You must dehash your console if it has been converted to DEX.
- The QA flag (direct link) must be always enabled on your PS3 to reduce risks.
- Always use Recovery Menu while installing to reduce risks.
- Do not have a disc in the PS3 while updating.
- Requires 3.55 to install.

Note: This includes MultiMAN v04.08.01 and Showtime v04.01.208
Deank has released an update of MultiMAN to v04.08.01 (included in Rogero’s 4.30 CFW Download above). This includes 6 new language files, 4.30 CFW support, Support for Standard and Hermes payloads (4.30CFW) and finally Support for BD-Mirror (external USB HDD) for use in 4.30.

Yet Another Bypass by cotojestwtf is a homebrew that most of you are probably already aware of (and most likely love). It allows access to PSN on CFW consoles; the latest revision allowing us access on 4.21 and 4.25 (No 4.30 love yet!). For those of us who do not know how to use this, I’ll write a little tutorial here (You will need a computer for this):
Step 1: Run the YABStart.bat
Step 2: Go to the Playstation 3 Network settings and in the Proxy tab write the IP Address of your computer using Port 27. This can be changed through the use of the port.txt file found in the config folder.
Step 3: Connect to PSN.
You can download the latest version of YAB Here.

A lot has been going on in PS3 land since the release of the LV0 keys. I’m highly looking forward to seeing how the scene progresses in the near future.
still cant use this .. cant downgrade my ps3 .. any other way of downgrading a ps3 from 4.30 to 3.55 without using e3 flasher?
The three options that I know of are E3 Flasher, Progskeet and Teensy++ 2.0. Progskeet and Teensy require soldering sadly.
So this means that there will never be a way to install cfw on my ps3 with out some type of downgrader?? (Im on 4.25)
If i got the E3 Limited Flasher i can flash my slim no problem tho right? it goes back to 3.41 and its compatiable. waiting on my E3 now.
Can we install ps2 games and play them?
“PS2 Multi Tools:
Fixed copying PS2 Games to HDD (now works perfectly)”
Sadly this is for back-up purposes only. They won’t Play.
Even if we have a BC (PHAT) ps3?
AWESOME ………….1ST TO COMMENT
Nope. Maybe next time, nub.
FAIL jaja
EPIC FA1L0RZ!!!
Yes ! Amazing progress.
Now just one last thing.
A soft downgrader for Ofw.
That’ll be the day…
huge bummer I’m still stuck on 4.25 OFW….
Yeah, Looking forward an E3 flasher fully emulated !
im currently running this now as wololo says even if you havent downgraded before make sure to dehash
I’d love that too.
That was a reply to the wrong thing, sorry 😛
This wasn’t written by Wololo though, just so you know. Also, in regards to that, I did not mean if you have never downgraded before. You only need to Dehash if you’ve converted CEX to DEX.
When upgrading from 3.55 to any of these 4.x CFWs, can you always then soft-downgrade back to 3.55 if you needed to?
I assume part of the CFW is keeping the exploit within 3.55 (or that they are built from the 3.55 ofw as a base)
Am I correct in that assumption?
Yeah, you can.
So, does it work on the ps3 slim 3k models?
I found the answer.
No still need cfw 3.55
Although I don’t dispute the possibility of installing CFW on 3.55+ models since the release of the LV0 Keys, I believe that it’s probably a long way off unfortunately.
Thank you Tonakai for keeping us updated. We’ll be waiting for that day or a possibility of eboot signing…
Can I run MultiMan signed with 4.21 keys on 4.30 OFW if I Data Transfer it?
I’m not entirely sure as I’m still on 3.55
Why don’t you test it and let us know how it went? 😀
I’m pretty sure that should work though.
if it work. we might be able to install pkg using xbm+ file manager
No, you might be able to open it but it will be completely useless, other apps that don’t rely on firmware patches might work though, like cracked psn games or emulators
Ninja hear my cry, I need something new for ps vita, release something bro.
on it says it works on SUPERSLIM? Is that true?
No. You have to start from 3.55 or lower firmware. Super slim’s came out with 4.XX on them. You cannot downgrade lower than what your PS3 came with.
And the reason that YAB has no love on 4.30CFW is because you can get online with 4.30, theres no need for a workaround.
hi there – everything work fine, except some of my psn titles dont start
anymore – what happend?
any idea?
thx
Only psn games you actually bought work on this. (at least thatswhat i’ve heard)
Sadly even with LV0 keys leaked I don’t think any of us that are.above 3.55 will be able to have cfw without the mentioned 3 ways, don’t think we will ever have an easy way to jailbreak 🙁
I bought a used Slim ps3 it started at OFW 3.66 and I updated to 4.30. Can I downgrade it?
You can downgrade back to 3.66, which is largely pointless as you need 3.55 or lower.
Sadly, the only option open to you is to get another PS3. :/
I might do that in the far future trust me will get one even if I don’t even update my ps3 next update I use my vista and hack that. I’m on of 1.81. So I’m good on that had Until they release a new hack for it.
You miss the important part. He clearly said “Used”, he may of got it at 3.66 but theres no telling how low it was when its original owner bought it

I’m sold!
Now can some one give me a tutorial on the safest way to upgrade from 3.55 Kmeaw to 4.30 Rogero?
I’m guessing.
1. Go back to official 3.55 with USB update.
2. Install Rogero 4.30 with USB update.?
Just sounds to easy…?
It’s really simple (luckily).
First you’ll need to dehash if you’ve converted to DEX. It may be better to use Rogero CEX3.55 v3.7 for this (Download here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/6njwvd)
Next update from the Recovery Menu using the files I provided in the article using USB like you said.
Good Luck 🙂
The DEX thing, was that the one that came out about a year ago? you need to get files off the PS3 then install stuff using them.? If so I didnt do that. 🙂
Is it safe to go straight from 3.55 Kmeaw to 4.30 Rogero or should I go to 3.55 OFW then Recorvery Menu then the Rogero install?
Big thanks. Tonakai
I cant find a upgrade 3.55 CFW to 4.20+ CFW walk threw anywhere.
I’m not entirely sure how you convert CEX to DEX because I never felt any need for it, so maybe you should research this just to be sure you didn’t and avoid a brick 😛
I’m not sure how safe that would be (lol I’m a great help!), but using Rogero’s 3.55 is recommended by his upgrade tut (which you can read here: http://tortuga-cove.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=127&t=3708). Personally I would do it just to be on the safe side.
As for the thanks; you’re welcome! 🙂
not good enought
“mere hours” it takes mere seconds to replace the coldboot image with ps3mfw builder. you should try it sometime 😉 you could call it 4.30-MFW-Tonakai.
can any CFW be run on a Playstation 3 with a 256 MB NAND?

Your point is???
i posted this in the 4.30 E3 CFW thread. just letting people know that the last thing came true 😛
Rogero 4.30 CFW v1 = E3 4.30 CFW.
[quote]Rogero v1.00 = BLUEDISK cfw without drm.
Rogero v1.09 = MONSTER 4.21 v4 cfw.. the one the Chinese where testing.
not 1 patch is new from Rogero in those fw’s.. he just put his image/name all over it.. and caused many people bricks.. because he has no idea what he is doing.. and if there is a future Rogero MFW for 4.30 it will just be a repack of this one with his name all over it.[/quote]
is this way of by passing safe to use??? because i dont want a bann or brick
I doubt you’ll get banned. As for safe, it is if you follow the instructions. 🙂
My ps3 slim is a 2501b model that was previously flashed with 3.55.2 rebug before i updated is it possible to downgrade it for cfw?
Some of that model cannot be downgraded, so double check with Minimum Version Checker (download here: http://depositfiles.com/files/wmhat510r)
Also it was on 3.55 cfw and then i updated it and its on an OFW 4.21
Derp. It should be okay.
There’s got to be a easier way for PS3 3.55 Kmeaw someone let me know if this will work.
0. Start from 3.55 Kmeaw.
1. Install 3.55 OFW from the Recovery Menu (I dont need the downgrade tutorial or install anything from it because I was on 3.55 CFW and never over 3.55? Right?)
2. Now that I’m on 3.55 OFW I can install 3.55 Rogero CFW from the Recovery Menu.
3. Now that I’m on 3.55 Rogero CFW I can go to the Recovery Menu and at last install 4.30 Rogero CFW.?
Will that work or do I need to follow the downgrade tutorial to?
I dont want to install things to my PS3 that I will not need?
Hope this helps me and other people. 🙂
I would like to know that to,.. so bump
A quick question. if i upgrade from 4.25 to 4.30 will that reduce my chances of being able to use a software downgrader if one gets developed?
is it possiable to downgrade a 4.25 2gen ps3
Looks like sony tryng to keep him busy cause they just rolled out OFW 4.31. AND *** WERE IS THE VITA EXPLOIT BEEN NEARLY 2 WEEKS. HOW SAD.
be patient. 1: 2 weeks is not even long, think about it. and 2: stop acting spoiled, we don’t deserve an exploit, we may get one and we should be grateful if and when we do.
ainda espero um ninja para o ps3 também
I still hope for a ninja ps3 also
Hey mods, quit deleting my comments XD A professional troll’s gotta troll ya know?? 😛
Or not…. seems I had an old cache, guess I just trolled myself XDDD
i have ps3 running on 3.55 ..should i have to update it on 4.30
For waiting people is a good news!
Thank you for your hard!
Take a break please!
Can I downgrade to 3.55 from the official 4.30 (latest offical update)?
lol, how to make a Nand dump using multiMAN, I hit Start and Select and it gives me a windows’ish screen now what?
TY
Were is the exploit DARN.
This is stupid I cant find a tut for making a nand backup using multiman!!
I keep finding this.
“Hit start and Select then O on the file then no no yes”
All I get is a Windows’ish screen when I hit Start and Select.?.?
Someone make a more detailed tut for updating from 3.55 Kmeaw to 4.30 Rogero. :/
PS Multi Tools (V6) “This brings a lot of new features to work with 4.21-4.30 consoles….”
I couldn’t get the ps3usercheat to work on my 4.30 cfw console? Any help? Thanks
You only worry about de hash if you went to dex?
OK I updated to 4.30 Rogero to play my retail copy of Twisted Metal and I still get a error when loading the game any idea why?
I just wanna play my game.
