PS3 New Cobra 8.3 on Rebug 4.84.2?

[Casavult]

Hey guys,

I already have my other PS3 on Evilnat 4.88 (can't wait for 4.88.2!) but is it possible to use @Evilnat's cobra changes and transfer them to Rebug 4.84.2?

AFAIK @DeViL303 was working on a Rebug 4.84 MOD with Cobra 8.3

Hmmm, thanks. Maybe @Evilnat or @DeViL303 could make a comment if it's no trouble for them.

Yes, it is possible to port Cobra 8.3 to Rebug 4.84.2, I have done it a month ago to test old Cobra 8.3, @DeViL303 also created another 4.84.2 with Cobra 8.3

There are a few things to keep in mind before copying and pasting the files from my repository to flash:

• lv2_kernel.self with stage2 fail save by @bguerville and @aldostools is mandatory, this will avoid bricks/semibricks while loading stage2. If your current kernel doesn't have it, your NAND PS3 can be bricked and NOR can be semibricked when stage2 is loading. After compiling stage0, you need to add the necessary patches for CFW in the new lv2_kernel.self. Then you need to unpack CoreOS package from PUP, replace kernel and compile it again (any minor issue can be fatal when modifying CoreOS)
• stage2's hashes must be updated (I think the hashes are up to date in my repository), otherwise the PS3 may freeze at start

I recommend you to wait for someone to port and test the new Cobra 8.3 to 4.84.2, I will do it myself when my CFW 4.88.2 will be released

Thanks Nathan for the quick reply. I will wait patiently for 8.3 port to Rebug

In the meantime, my other PS3 is using your 4.88.2 final beta so I can't wait to update to the full and final 4.88.2 release!

Keep up the good work, bud!

It would be wonderful Rebug REX 4.84 to get all the advantages of the new COBRA 8.30 along with xai plugin.
Thank you so much for what you guys are doing with the PS3 scene to this day keeping it alive.

O yeah, I hope @Evilnat can add dump erk support D-REX too.

does anyone have Rebug 4.84.2 with Cobra 8.3 PUP they can post please

 

[tungatung]

Is it ready to be released, or is still under testing phase

Did this ever officially get ported to Rebug Rex or D-Rex by chance? I've been out of the scene for a second and I'm looking to bring one in my stash up to date and put some use on it.
