I have compared to the LV1 of 4.88 and 4.84dex,
Only version description are different, others are the same ,
Can I Patch 4.84DEX LV1 and use PUAD GUI Repack PUP?

offset
0x1D2F1A 0x0C
0x1D2F26 0x1E
Click to expand...

LV1 offsets haven't changed much since 4.55.

0x1D2F1A: 0x0A = 500, 0x0B = 550, 0x0C = 600 mhz
0x1D2F26: 0x1A = 650, 0x1B = 675, 0x1C = 700, 0x1D = 725, 0x1E = 750 mhz

I couldn't find this pattern in LV1 dump.
001D2F10 000000A000000000 00000A02000000A1
001D2F20 0000000000001A04 000000A200000000
 
Hi everyone. I have been trying out this modified CFW doing some tests. Then it occurred to me to uninstall it by installing the CFW Evilnat CEX 4.88.2 (via XMB) and it resulted in an installation loop. Also it didn't work to take the HDD to the PC. The result is a brick and the console shuts down within seconds of powering on. Nothing happens because I have copies of my nand and the E3 Flasher. Has anyone had this problem or can you check to try to uninstall it properly?

No problem here, I already installed other firmwares on the top of it without any problems and I went back again more than 3 times , so far so good

@Mello_1993 made some YouTube videos installing and uninstalling it without any issues too
 
I was wondering if maybe we could underclocking the RSX / CPU ? to make it more stable as it should have less heat so less risk of YLOD ?
Instead of overclocking it which ofc it increases performance but also the risks of overheat/ylod...

I'm not an expert I'm just asking :p

REBUG 4.84.2 REX RSX OVERCLOCKED 600 750.

Install at your own risk.

Tested on a CECH 2100

MD5:

As the hack only affects lv1_kernel, could we have 2 PS3PATCH.PUP that only replace the CORE_OS_PACKAGE.pkg ?

One overclocked @ 600/750mhz and another to restore the default 500/650mhz, that way we don't lose the customizations.

BTW I wonder if these 2 values are part of a range. If so, maybe a 500/750mhz could be better.

How do you make a patch PUP :)
 
You would need to unpack your modded PUP, keep only the CoreOS pkg & repack it as a PS3PATCH PUP however I have never tried to do that & I dunno if available pup packing tools support that kind of repacks.

You can do that only if UPL xml gets added too. And its easier to pack it as pup than as patch pup

Yes of course there will need to be a "catalog" file.
It might be "easier" to make a full PUP with the available tools but fundamentally, there is not much difference between the 2, it should be just as easy to create a custom PATCH pup file. Patches have never really been a priority as far as I can remember.

Alternatively one could always use the PS3 Toolset to toggle that mod, of course that wouldn't be as convenient as a XMB link but probably faster than a full PUP update.

Sorry my dirty english.
I think to adjust only memory clock for 90nmRSX PS3.
Improved performance with suppressing heat generation.
This will be a good solution for FAT PS3.
What do experienced users think?

This stuff is experimental, we need more & better feedback before drawing any kind of conclusions.
Personally I would advise some degree of caution when deploying those overclocks, especially on phat consoles known to have thermal issues.
