How many patches did you apply to your lv2kernel?

I just compared mine and yours, and yours have a lot of patches.

If I remember correctly I have applied in 4.70, 8/9 patches for 40/45 patterns
You, as you have applied?

No, I do not apply any patches except for peek/poke as managers can do patches which [MENTION=89]aldostools[/MENTION] @deank prefer since patches can be changed in future.

If so, some old patches can conflict with new patches due to its asm functions overlapping each other

Yes, it is correct as you do. It also saves a lot .... very ..... time.
As long as the Ferrox is stable is not a problem.
 
im pretty new to irishman and ive installed the one you suggested Alexander.. but when i press on a game and the ps3 reboots... then theres nowhere i can see the selected game mounted as BD or antyhing... cant find where to start the game :(

is your ps3 doing an complete reboot? or just going back to the xmb menu? normally theres a folder in your xmb "app_home/ps3_game" where you can find your mounted game.
 
Thx Alexander

Forrex 4.70 working fine with IRISMAN 3.45 ( Some Games Like COD:Black OPS 2 + BF4 ) with PSNPATCH 4.66.40 for ONLINE

COD:Ghost black screen

thx alexander i call play online again

after installing the CFW've tried:
Restore File System (Recovery)
Rebuild Database (Recovery) ?

It seems strange that the PS3 will reboot after mounting a game O.o

Maybe is not reboot, just quit to xmb? Try what Alexander said and/or check game is mounted under /app_home/PS3_GAME/ in xmb. If nothing help try diffrent payload setting in irisman, etc. If game is iso, you need mamba payload selected because this cfw is non-cobra.

That happened to me,what to do is go to the game in irisman and press triangle then go to config game and do these settings
Requires disc..no
Direct boot..no
Extebootbin..off
Bdemu..off
Ext/dev..off
Hope this helps,i have gta v playing with these settings.And a big thanks to you Alexander,great work mate,now waiting for NoBd version as this ps3 keeps cutting out(near ylod).

Cant install CFW on OFW 4.70 . CFW can only install on 3.55 OFW.. So you need to downgrade your console (if you have a downgradable model)

This thread/app may be of help for you: link

Please be serious or not answer at all. (Thanks)
 
Multiman work on any 4.70 cobra (mmcm mode). For standard cfw you need to wait probably like playerkp420 said. Or ask deank to do it faster.
