PS3 Custom Firmware 4.80.1 Rebug REX/D-REX released
Not so long ago, Sony released Firmware 4.80 which was an yet another stability update. Rebug CFW is back as well with a few new features. Of course, the Cobra 7.3 payload isn’t missing from this release. That means you will no longer need the PS2 Launcher to play PS2 game,s you can launch them now directly via the Disc Icon from the XMB and many other cool features! But take a look yourself below.
How to install 4.80.1 Rebug REX/D-REX
- Download the Rebug PS3UPDAT.PUP from the official Rebug site (there are two versions, one for CEX and the other one for DEX Systems, choose the one you need)
- Create on a FAT32 formatted USB Flash Drive a Folder called PS3, then into this one, another one called UPDATE
- Copy the PS3UPDAT.PUP in the UPDATE Folder.
- Plug in the usb flash drive to your PS3, Go to Settings > System Update and install it.
- You’re now done and can setup the CFW.
Like all Custom Firmwares, you can only install 4.80.1 Rebug if you’re already running a Custom Firmware, or Official Firmware 3.55 and below on your PS3!

I was using the ps2 games converted in classics mode iso.bin.enc in the internal HDD but even with cobra 7.3 i still need the launcher to start them.
I can use the games now in .iso directly and in the external too?
Yo can use .iso directly but only in Internal
Oh, thanks dude!
Well i guess i have to wait for habib , i like it more , its less bugy and more stable for PSN mode
Rebug has no Bugs it’s actually the most stable CFW you can get.
Btw Habib lost his interest to make PS3 CFW so you will wait very long, but Habib is still part of the Rebug Team
If you are looking for a less complex CEX CFW, theres also FERROX 4.80 Cobra 7.3.
There’s nothing complex about Rebug. It just has options. You don’t have to use any of it if you don’t want to and it’ll still work like a regular CFW out of the box. Don’t be scared
Any no bd update or CFW 4.80??? 🙁
If I converted my cex console to dex do I install the d-rex or just the normal rex. I don’t want to brick my console
When on dex install d-rex when on cex install rex. Actually rex and d-rex are the same firmware but with one little change between them to allow for installation on cex or dex.
So on my converted dex console I should install d-rex
Yes, for a converted dex console you want to install d-rex, if you tried to install rex it would not brick it would just not install.
ive ordered teensy++2.0 , teensy2ps3 adapter board and 360 nand and nor clip. im hoping on downgrading 2 ps3 fats this would be amazing
did you downgraded those PS#’s or what ?
Can this be installed onto any PS3?
No, it cannot be installed onto any PS3
So, I just installed their 4.80 CFW. I have CEX version, I reviewed all my settings on my rebug toolbox especially the COBRA enable option before installing the new 4.80 cex, but after I installed the 4.80 CEX, I couldn’t find “Enable COBRA” on my rebug toolbox. Control Fan Utility won’t run, webman enable option is in toolbox but not appearing in XMB after enabling, mm won’t load the games. Im just baffled what happened after installing the new 4.80 by REBUG.
Do you install Rebug toolbox 2.02.10?
