  • NEW LOOK OF XMB;

    From this version, the FERROX takes a new look.
    Ideas realized by dear MiZiO90, who worked to make the coolest FERROX CFW around!
    It is not a theme.

    It is some internal changes.
    Changes were introduced to 'clock, the horizontal lines in the screens, in colored lettering, to' Full Banner at the top right, in the section 'System Upgrade', to the menu screen that appears when holding down the PS button, and a new logo FERROX pulsing during uploads.

    A large lavorone!

    You want to see the screen?
    Open the spoiler to make a 'better idea of the new look !!

    Combined with the new Look with your theme you prefer.
    Or maybe combined with a Wave!
    It comes out a XMB fear

    PS. The Logo FERROX bottom right, is only visible to 1080p resolution.
    I think we all still play with the 'HDMI. Then no problem!

  • Tips INSTALLING THE CFW from the developer;
    • Download the CFW at the bottom. Rename the File .pup exactly: PS3UPDAT.PUP and confrontatene the 'MD5 with what you find at the bottom! You can use the Tool md5sums.
    • Take a USB FAT32 formatted, and create a new folder called PS3, inside this create another 'other still called UPDATE, and inside latter' inseriteci the PS3UPDAT.PUP File, which would be the custom firmware.
    • Insert the USB in the far right of the PS3 port.
    • Be sure to: Remove any disc from the player Ps3, Remove any games loaded with any Manager, Disable Internet Connection.
    • Ok. You can choose to install the CFW from the XMB or from Recovery.
    • On the XMB will just go into 'Settings' column, then 'System Upgrade' and choose 'With storage media'. Select the CFW and will start the process.
    • To enter Recovery Instead, turn off the console. Turn it back on by holding down the Power button until the console is turned off again. Now turn it back on by holding down the Power button until you hear two beeps very close. Then release the Power button! Recovery time from the menu, select 'System Update' and follow the instructions.
    • For a clean installation, you can install 2 times the CFW. You can also go back into Recovery and click Options for Rebuilding the Database and Restore the System File. So you'll have a setup more than clean and safe.

not sure. the only errors I recall r 80000009 which relates to firmware revision issue. 80000017 which relates to a game simply not loading (usually the result of the game not being fixed for the firmware ur on or the game simply being corrupted.) and, the series of F's and 0's on the vita when a vpk is corrupted.
 
8002f2c5 is the code for
Code:
 Error with installing Firmware update. The PUP is not recognised as valid update. (Can be generated by pulling the storage device with the PUP when it is still in checking stage. DANGEROUS!). Or when trying to install MinVerCheck.PUP inmediatly after an hdd replacement in PS3 models with a NOR flash
So if the pup is valid, this was not a straightforward update, something else must have taken place...
Something like a change of hdd requiring cfw reinstall but the current cfw on NOR is not Ferrox 4.80 Cobra?

I'd redownload then. the pup is fine, so if u keep having issues, the problem is likely the storage medium. don't use an hdd unless the internal hdd with update debug enabled.

Hi, I partly managed to solve ps3 games now work creating file ISO witch genisops3 but ps2 game cd don't work when you have a solution You could give?
 
I have used ps2 classic GUI of Aldo's tools for create iso and i have Mastered with cdburnerxp but even ps2 original cd game work So I don't think it's a problem with programs.

What model of console are you using? Is it a ps2 backwards compatible?
 
I have a ps3 with hard disk 160 gb. I don't know if it is backwards compatible
Well it's very important to know that information if you want to use original ps2 games.
Backward compatibles don't use the same emulator & provide support for features/games that BC models cannot.
Check the model SKU at the back of the console, it begins with CECH....

I don't understand. PS2 Classic GUI in my tools collection is not used to to create ps2 iso.
It is for *CONVERT* ps2 iso into PS2 Classic PKG. If you burned the PKG, then that's the problem.
