Can someone tell something about following spoofer? PS3 4.70 Spoof for HABIB Cobra - NextGenUpdate

It's PSNPatch which has a option for Cobra firmwares to spoof. With a change to the config file it can also successfully spoof to 4.70, however only for cobra fws.

straight from the mouth of PSNPatch:

Be carefull !!!!
That's not enough. Besides not working :)
You also need to include index.dat, version.txt and a 4.66 vsh.self spoofed to 4.70.
Carefull read psnpatch docs as it is described how it should be done.

It is not a great hassle (in fact is rather easy), but taking in consideration the past week psn server changes,
I do not recommend a version spoofer until being perfectly sure that a 4.66 spoofed to 4.70 is not easily detected by Sonia ;)

also read some of the earlier posts in this thread by him and [MENTION=29]Joonie[/MENTION] (one of the devs behind REBUG 4.65.2)

It is not like that. Don't spread rumors. Read PSNPatch docs.
Furthermore there are many other changes in 4.70 besides simple spoofing.
 
C'mon Sony!! Seriuously!!!??? Just "Close Captions" for BD/DVD? And not native MKV support from XMB or external subtitles on MP4 yet?

I think their devs spend too much time on Facebook, instead of adding real features.

BTW there is a test build of IRISMAN for devs making CFW 4.70
IRISMAN_3.44_BETA_TEST_ON_CFW470

If someone could get me a dump of 4.70 lv2 would be helpful :) (not a lv2_kernel.elf)

I'm currently trying to do a spoofer for 4.66 and 4.65 systems, however these freaking 8 new certificates are annoying me.
I spoofed to 4.70 successfully, however my PS3 tells me the error code 80710101 (no internet connection) when trying to get into PSN, I guess this has to do with the certs. Did anyone found out already if 8 other certificates aren't used anymore and if so which?

Just replacing unused/expired certificates probably won't be much use by itself. A bitmask is used to select which certificates will be loaded, the expired ones will not be included in the bitmask used by libssl or vsh.
Oh and the MD5 hashes of the certificate files are checked against hardcoded values (again in libssl and vsh) so that would need to be patched for new certificates to work.

Patching the bitmask and the MD5 check should be fairly straightforward, but presumably outside of what a spoofer would normally be doing.

(In 4.66 anyway. I doubt 4.70 is any different.)
 
On FERROX 4.70 ( Test Version ), IrisMan goes, only fitting that the games do not start. Or rather, give black screen.
I had sent the same version of MP, and I had asked a DUMP LV2 to correct the error, but I could not because I was studying.
