PS3 Bypass Date and Time on Boot

My PS3 has a dead CMOS battery, and to replace it I would have to replace the thermal paste (motherboard Ver-001). With CFW, is there any way to skip this screen automatically? I have already activated Cbomb and autoClock fix, but the screen still appears when I turn off the PS3 from the power.
 
Did you try using Auto Fix Clock in webMAN MOD 1.47.48m ?

Earlier builds only fixed the clock, but still required to enter the Date and Time. The latest build auto-accept the page and sets the time automatically. It works as expected on my PS3 slim with CFW 4.92.2 Evilnat.
 
Yes, the Autoclock fix works normally, it's just that whenever I unplug the PS3 from the power outlet, right on the boot screen it asks for the date and time, but I wanted to skip this screen automatically, how it was supposed to be with a 100% cmos battery.
 
That makes sense, since you have no way to keep power after unplug. The clock fix I'm not sure how it works off hand, but once power is completely lost, I dont see how it would remember the time. Probably just have to replace that battery.
 
I think there could be some option to switch or remove the time request at boot, jumping to the xmb directly, and thus updating the time, either by autoclock fix or manually, just like on an xbox 360 that does not use a cmos battery.
 
Maybe I didn't explain myself correctly... webMAN MOD 1.47.48m (current build available on Github) skips the screen that prompts for the date and time when the system boot (after unplug the system or cut the power). Auto Fix Clock must be checked in /setup.ps3

It keeps pressing X to accept the page until XMB is loaded, then update the date/time using the time returned by my web server.

Note: It doesn't work if you're using the Lite edition.
 
Thank you, I updated the webman version 1.47.48K to M and it worked, but it still appears for 1 second, maybe it would be interesting in the future to remove it completely or alternatively through cfw, without depending on webman, but I don't think it would be that simple.
