  • Custom Firmware FERROX 4.85 COBRA 8.20
    We made you wait so long this time ... But we keep the promises :)
    Now you finally have the new CFW from Cybermodding, the FERROX 4.85 !!

    The developer @ Alexander this period has been busy not just, but the wait is over.
    The 'Perfect Custom Firmware' is updated to version 4.85, including the latest COBRA version, 8.20 . For the rest it is the same CFW that you know, clean and light and with the only Patches needed by the vast majority of users. It is the Custom Firmware most suitable for all those who often go online and do not use the SPRX Mod Menu. Very reminiscent of good old Rogero, clean, functional and safe (as much as possible).

    Let's get back to us and see the features of the new FERROX 4.85 COBRA 8.20!

    FEATURES OF THE CFW FERROX 4.85

    Optional: Includes XMB Mod installer
    /
    Install/Remove included XMB Mods or the CyberModding Homebrew Store

    If you like our Cybermodding Homebrew Store, or the Graphic Mods seen in previous FERROX, this Installer is for you. This Installer was created based on the XMBM + Team installer and inside you will find the possibility to install or uninstall the Mod and the Homebrew Store.

    The installer was introduced in the Custom Firmware when installing FERROX. This means you will always have it available, without having to use a USB stick. To install the PKG, just go to the Package Manager, and navigate to Install File Package - Internal Storage of the PS3 system. The installer will always be there, but if you want you can delete it via File Manager from the dev_blind / ferrox / pkg directory.

    The use is really simple, there is not much to explain.
    You can install the Mods, and you can reinstall the original files at any time from the installer. Ditto for the Store.

guys i updated my ps3 for a overflow nobd patch and i can't play games the games don't appear on xmb i don't know how i can resolve i downloaded ferrox non bd patch but wen i try update him says
no applicable update data found
please guys resolve that for me i am desesperate

hi guys im sorry, i tryed installed cfw without correct name on pen drive, i renamed the archive and works, my ps3 is alive again
So the Ferrox noBD is can play your games normaly like it should to be ?
 
So, I've been trying to use Artemis lately and not only do the cheats not seem to work after attaching them but after a few minutes of play the PS3 shuts off completely into blinking red light mode (80gb Fat). The game I was trying to cheat is a PSN digital game however there were cheats for this game in Artemis so I figured a disc game isn't always required?. A video I watched was saying to make sure Cobra is enabled but isn't Cobra enabled from default in this? Tried to use rebug tools to enable it in case it's not, but it says not compatible or something so I can't manually do it.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

guys, last saturday i went to play fallout 3 and my ps3 stopped, ok i tried restarting it and nothing, i turned it off and on again, on the strength, but it bugged everything, it asked to analyze corrupted data, finished and entered a wait screen and nothing happened, I do not remember but I found a way to connect it like jumping start, so far so good I thought it was just a bug and went to play, hung up and called again and the same bug, I went into despair, I tried all kinds of recovery and nothing, until I realized that I was showing an error message 80010201 and that it didn't connect to the internet, but I thought it must be a "symptom" of the bug, but I started to think it was and maybe the wifi card burned ?, so i searched the internet and found that this bug could be caused by a bug in the system that could have corrupted, so i thought my hypothesis is right, but i tried to format the hd on the pc and nothing, so even today i am here, after I formatted it still calls, but the intro is slow , it bugs in the xmb (as if the control stopped, in games it didn't happen) I kept the video game and it's there until today, I don't know if it's a bug or if the board really burned, well I don't know what to do would be a lot of help if someone could help me

hello, I have currently installed overflow 4.85.1 (CEX) installed on my PS3,
can I install this firmare on my ps3?
 
Hello guys, i'm super new with Ferrox CFW, can you tell how to activate QA flag in this CFW please?
Install and run this package, you will get a black screen and then be returned to the XMB. See the Release Notes tab for how to verify that the QA flag has been enabled.

My experience, 80010201 error can occur if the Bluetooth module has a problem or the FAT NAND console has finished downgrading (hardware flasher) but does not enable QA flag (installed using firmware that uses VSH CEX).

The solution:
1. Fix if the bluetooth part has a problem.
2. Enable QA flag or use firmware that uses VSH DEX, such as rebug Rex or D-Rex

Can I install it without a Bluray drive? Mine is broken, and I'm afraid of getting loop, so I wanna know if that "patched blu-ray disc" is a patch for those who don't have a functional blu-ray drive.
 
Hi, I love this CFW and I'm wondering when we're going to see a 4.86 release for it. No rush, figured out how to spoof PSN but it's nice to be able to use youtube and crunchyroll on my ps3 without running software on my PC to spoof.
 
Having trouble with crunchyroll. I install the package, when I run it it says it needs to update to the latest version, then after downloading and installing latest crunchyroll it asks me to sign in again. I guess the version on NoPSN isn't the latest?
yeah i think thats the problem...sorry i have not used that one so i didnt know
 
Alexander can i have your contact number or instagram i want to ask you something

Having no time for development, I only limited myself in porting the cobra 8.20 to the new Ferrox.
I received hundreds of reports regarding the release of the new Custom Firmware, so I wanted to cut out some of my free time for the release of this new version.
If there will be new Original Firware Sony ex 4.86+, surely the release of the new Ferrox, will happen in a long time (a few weeks after the release of the OFW)
Aleksander please reply back i want to ask you somwthing
