PS3 Firmware 4.83 released, breaks ps3Xploit
Sony unexpectedly released firmware update 4.83 a few hours ago, with just the typical “System stability improvement” changelog. The last system update, 4.82, was released almost one year ago, and is vulnerable to the PS3Xploit hack.
At the time of writing this article, 6 hours after the update was first reported, Sony’s official site still states the latest firmware for PS3 is 4.82.
How does PS3 4.83 impact hacks?
Esc0rtd3w, one of the developers behind Ps3Xploit, has confirmed that firmware 4.83 breaks some components of PS3Xploit.
It is not completely sure at this point whether this release is an actual patch for the hack, or if it just happens to break some of the things leveraged by the exploit, in a way that could be recovered or bypassed by the PS3Xploit team. Experience tells us however that it is very likely there’s an intentional patch against PS3Xploit here, today the only way to run hacks on most PS3s.
Bottom line, as always, if you want to keep your PS3 hacked, do not update to the latest firmware, and stay tuned for more details.
4.83 PS3 Update Confirmed to at least break some ***! 😒
DO NOT UPDATE AT THIS TIME IF YOU WANT TO KEEP ANY MODIFICATIONS!!

Idk bro but if ur ps3 is slim or fat then just downgrade by e3 flasher then when u get to 3.55 install 4.81 rebug
Thanks…
thats wierd i thought ps3 is dead almost 2 years ago..
well even there are no new PS3 games CFW still offers more than PS4 with webkit – Multiman/Showtime, PSN online, PSX/2 support…
yes the exploit is a great thing making the ps3 the best console ever made ,,and its a shame they work against us ,not with us ,,yes i run the update on 1 of my systems 4.83 …awaiting rebug 4.83
Fifa 2019 was just released. Probably did this to counter the flood of CFW users on there. Maybe, maybe not.
They probably already had it in the mix just waiting for a release. Who knows.
Praising the effort of the PS3 hacking team, PS3xploit HAN is too much pain in the *** for the super slim users anyways.
LOL Sony.
I was wondering if they going to bother this time lol
thank god i got CFW back when PS3xploit 1.0 came out
I’m sure 4.83 can still be exploited somehow, however assuming the worst, that the got it very secure and bug free this time, I wonder if all the super slim ps3s could be downgraded back to 4.82 with one of those e3 flashers, it’s just that I’ve never heard of someone attempting a downgrade on a super slim before so I wasn’t sure if it would work.
Looks like s simple proxy bypass is all you need. At least for now.
Look on the bright side. At least I have cfw and this isn’t a problem for me at all. I am looking forward to the development of a 4.83 Rebug REX.
The Proxy Bypass still works for now.
Is there a way to access PS Store on PS3 without updating? I want to be able to download games I bought but don’t want to update.
You can use any number of programs to spoof the current firmware version. I believe the one I use is either SEN Enabler or PSNPatch
Forgive me, are you saying I can use a spoof, then activate my ps+ account? I want to back up some copy protected games (Demon’s Souls & Dark Souls)
UNLIMITED STABILITEEEEE.
Guess I’ll hang on to my E3 Flasher after all. Thanks for the news.
Can you even play online with CFW on 4.82 without being banned?
Yes you can. I have been playing without any problems up until this new firmware came out. Now when i try to sign in, the system prompts me that there is a new update available.
I can confirm that you can play online with CFW on 4.82. I’ve played a few multiplayer rounds of Peace Walker a few months ago. Still not banned.
I thought it was just if we use cheats, or make it obvious enough that we’re on a CFW, that will get us banned?
I have tried to access online by using spoofs to no avail on rebug 4.82 cobra, any solutions to bypass these patches Sony keeps applying lol?
*** SONY
Do I need to quickly make a HAN PSN account, or am I already too late to be able to activate it online?
Showing a picture of a PS3 super slim and then talking of “System stability improvement” is kinda weird.
Is there any way to sign in into PSN on 4.82 HAN? Wanted to download some of my bought stuff but don’t wanna give up PS2 and PSP emulation
If you have the licenses on your PS3, you could use PSNDLE to get URIs to the packages and install them manually.
I was gonna jailbreak my ps3 so.I can start modding,does this mean that I can’t now considering that I already updated to this version
This is $ony doing a fw upgrade just for f*cks sake 😉 a nice goodby from them to the ps3
Help can one downgrade this 4.83 to 4.82??? I got this info late.. And my multi man is not working again… Help!!!
