Dispite the ****ing anoying paged articles and slow ass site, is the comments. Every time I read these comments, I make my day, seeing how YOU idiots are trying their very best to look like a nerd.

Why would I stay on QJ.net for any other reason, when there are so many other (better) alternatives, including in my own language?

Just think about it...

Don't try this for the sake of anything that is good.

It's confirmed. This is one heck of a
BRICKING MACHINE!

Either use wutangza's cfw or be patient for a more stable cfw.

The information provided in this here news post is good enough to discern whether or not your PS3 is compatible with the Custom Firmware.

Wow this guy is good. I only heard from him on the Wii hacking scene. I didn't know he would of rolled this one out!

+1 # GR8 JOB MAN! — The wii fan guy 2011-01-18 03:16

Waninkoko's work on da wii scene is gr8ly appreciated by me and many others, by i believe he won't get sued, since i believe he never released any personal info on his part, he used his own tools to decrypt/patch the firmware, he didn't distribute dem (source code), just da files available 4 download here.Other websites hav sum more detail on which models dis works 4, but 4 now, google it and wait 4 a fix.

Im just wondering when we'll get a 360 emulator on the Ps3

thatll be sweet if i could of made it myself i would thank whoever will make an attempt to creat this

+2 # DO NOT INSTALL!!!! — TheCraziness1 2011-01-18 04:09

THE METHOD USED TO PATCH LV2 IS INSUFFICIENT AND WANINKOKO HIMSELF IS ADVISING NOT TO INSTALL, IT HAS ALREADY BRICKED OVER A THOUSAND PS3'S TODAY ALONE! AGAIN, SLIM, PHAT DOESNT MATTER, DO NOT INSTALL!!!!! USE GOOGLE AND YOU WILL FIND A DIFFERENT CFW THAT PATCHES LV1 AND LV2 THE "CORRECT" WAY WITH ABSOLUTELY NO RISK OF BRICK!

# RE: DO NOT INSTALL!!!! — Vintage 2011-01-19 01:02

Brick is becoz the consumer had installed over models not listed in the later list which has not released in time at the forums.

Moreover, the mistake they made is tey have compiled a different incremental firmware and hash mdm different. & the last mistake they do it flashing via recovery mode. Geojb should be applied over 3.55ofw first, then Warin's through update in the menu, not recovery mode power hold.

I've bricked my old CECHA06 256MB but it works on the new CECH-2506B. Now using Rogero & Multiman for backups load & proven faster start up & smoother gameplay then before. Why not? even after so many years? It is a development and achievement success that only programmers will rejoice over the coming possibilities.

To know the deficiencies of the product & expand it. If you know that the disc is 8GB out of a 25gb disc blueray that you costly purchased makes you feel the program might not be fully developed or worth your buy. Programmers and gamers are not the same over the decades.

Use at the risk of having to buy another PS3

+1 # RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — PS360 Owner1 2011-01-18 08:13

It's easy to install it but I know Sony's will be releasing a new firmware update for PS3, so why bother.

I prefer to play online than having homebrew apps on my PS3.

+1 # PS3 Brick fix — K3b4b5t4r 2011-01-18 08:14

You can fix your pricked ps3 just search it in google or go read the comments on ps3-hacks.com

+1 # I done it — K3b4b5t4r 2011-01-18 08:15

I did it to mine like two seconds after it bricked keep calm people.

"We don't support and condone the usage of illegal copies."

Right

. You just like to discuss it and provide the tools for it. Your hands are clean.
Just like if I provide the tools and instructions to hack your website. I don't condone it. I am just reporting the facts.

# Thanks Waninkoko! — hypercoyote360 2011-01-18 12:06

Thanks for putting the option of playing backups back in. I understand Geohot's reasoning behind not including that feature, but there are legitimate uses for backup loaders (like me, keeping my originals sealed or for taking your PS3 places without having to bring all your game discs).

# RE: Thanks Waninkoko! — Vintage 2011-01-19 01:04

I seriously agree with you. Putting my discs in every time is such a pain in the as*.

-1 # Hmmm... — Daistaar 2011-01-19 01:37

How do you make a backup of a sealed game? Ohhhh you download it... (and it stays sealed at the store) LOL.

Do people still do sleepovers where they take their consoles? (Here come the thumbs down...)

I would stay the hell away from this FW. Tons of people (fat and slim) are reporting major issues.

I'm sure he'll fix it, just have to wait.

Hey I reported that in comments 2 days ago.

-2 # RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — Justin Graziano 2011-01-18 18:06

What they should do is allow a LEGAL disk to be fully copied to HDD and launched without disk in drive. Not burnt Blu-Ray's though.

+3 # RE: RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — ISOHaven 2011-01-18 19:38

Why would they do that? What's to stop you from dumping a rented game? Or buying the game then selling it off but keeping the dump?

Makes no sense.

-2 # RE: RE: RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — Vintage 2011-01-19 01:11

In a theoretical sense, there would not be piracy if the price of the original is kept low. And a balance of both can gauge the point where the price tag should be in.

dumps are not always permanent if it needs to reinstall. So either way both sides benefit instead of limiting the possibilities or limiting the consumers on the things they have bought, whether it is a costly console they have bought or game they had paid in full and not getting what they needed.
Imagine paying for a meal and you only get to eat the fries but not the main course.

-4 # RE: RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — Vintage 2011-01-19 01:06

Agreed! No need put the hassle of disc everytime to load for every of my original game.

# geohot — dude12 2011-01-18 18:06

geohots custom firmware is way way better and you can use multiman on that as well.

# look up — jazneo 2011-01-18 22:46

I hope you don't get sued like Geohot.

# RE: RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — Vintage 2011-01-19 01:14

As long as sensitive issues don't get breached in public it should be fine. & to understnd that federal rulings are limited by international waters and national countries regulation points that it has to go under jurisdiction of the country's barrier before passing to the accused.

Programmers and gamers are not the same.

You can use WuTangRZA, GeoHot, or Kmeaw. Pick one or all ;)

I recommend Kmeaw if you don't know what you're doing. You can use WutangRZA + GeoHot + Kmeaw's LV2 patch if you want the full experience though it's a bit more work. PSGroove has a good tutorial of how to do it and resident guru and developer ISOHaven is there as well

+2 # RE: ? — ISOHaven 2011-01-19 14:12

Daistaar is spot on. Just stay away from Waninkoko's at the moment.

It's easy for some people to say, stay away from this model or that model....sad part is, tons of people that are trying to do this don't even know what 'CECHA01' is! Some people just can't read....LOL

+1 # Thanks — Daistaar 2011-01-19 21:47

Thanks ISOHaven! Having fun with WutanRZA right now. Looking forward to a nice VLC type homebrew that can playback MKV.

I just want my OtherOS back with 3.55 so I can play all the latest titles and work on PS3 Linux. Damn it Sony, don't take away want I legally bought and paid for (I have a release PS3 I bought and paid for still on 3.15 because of Sony stupidity...) I get a 3.55 w/OtherOS and Sony can go f*** themselves.

+1 # RE: RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — Kreationz 2011-01-20 09:26

P.S. Don't care about cheats, but back-ups are nice as they load faster from the HD than the original disc. I buy my games, but I like the convenience of fast load times. My 360 isn't hacked, why? "Install to HD + Ability to Dev on it myself = no need.

# I have 2 noob questions: — jigenzan1 2011-01-21 23:37

1. Can this be installed via PSP, or am I still gonna need to buy a USB stick?

2. I have a newer PS3 20 GB (the one that ISN'T compatible with PS2 games, and doesn't have Wifi), is this a compatible model?

Thanks to anyone who has answers=)

# whoops — jigenzan1 2011-01-22 00:06

nvm on my second question; just realized it's a 40 GB version that's on the list=) so my only question is if this can done via PSP?

# RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — telemundo714 2011-01-22 19:54

does anyone know if we can go back to the official firmware after the cfw is install in case you dont want it anymore?

# RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — duck1400 2011-01-23 15:14

i still dont see the point in having a custom firmware the ps3 was made for Gaming and the entertainment it gives everyone wants to "hack" as they call it and "cheat", "pirate", and be "homos" because of reasons unknown yet. My ps3 is fine the way i bought it its fine that i play legit online games unlike on ps3 where there was a hacker every 5 meters away from u in the game... pointless, sony has a right to sue its their software that was modded and yes they can sue because its their source files he used because he didnt build his own firmware from scratch therefore sony should sue all they want. and people dont see why they sue well make your own system then have someone hack it and steal s**t from you where you lose profit then come post on how you feel.

# RE: RE: Waninkoko releases PS3 Custom Firmware v3.55 with backup playback support — profession69 2011-01-24 13:45

Agreed I like my ps3 the way it is right now piracy sucks and if they sue geogay and teamoverlygay then who cares its not you being sued your just mad because your not gunna get your "hacks" on time
