I have this with me for some days, but didn't had the time to prepare the release notes. They should have been a little bit more polished, but as nobody read them anyway, here it is:

PSNPatch 4.70.07
[11-APR-2015]
  • New "STEALTH3" extensions for cobra (*);
  • non-cobra plugin installer improved for speed and compatibility;
  • XMB menus handling for WEBMAN removed (webman-mod automatically updates the XMB GAMES menus).
  • Includes Webman-mod 1.41.35-KW lite edition, english language.
  • psnpatch.pkg file is now LESS THAN 1MB !!!! :)
  • Official support forum: psx-place.com (http://www.psx-place.com/forum/psnpatch/psnpatch-information-releases-125.html)


(*)
A) For non-tech users:
  • INSTALL-IT. IT'S BETTER THAN EVER !

B) For tech users:

  • Cobra syscalls disabling improved to a new level:
  • A payload is installed in a random LV2 syscall, from where it immediatelly disables CFW syscalls (including its own) without any limitation or turnaround.
  • This directly bypasses any cobra syscalls table protections by using direct LV2 access (no poking needed).
  • No need to recompile for each existing or future cobra variant.
  • Independent from cobra, mamba, any other payload and firmware version.
  • It restores syscalls: 6(lv2 peek), 7(lv2 poke), 8(semi-lv1 peek / cobra, mamba, ps3mapi), 9(lv1 poke), 10, 11(full lv1 peek), xx(random psnpatch payload)
  • psnpatch plugin will report "Stealth3 ..." when successfully using this mode.

As I have a very limited availability for the time being, support can only be guaranteed here at PSX-PLACE :) I will still look at other forums, but not so actively as before.

How long have we been the official support forum, I know it used to be Tortuga Cove?
 
Nice to see that developer still working on new features, not only when new FW is released. Thank you KW!
 
'psnpatch.pkg file is now LESS THAN 1MB !!!!' should help the 20GB users :)

Thank you very much for another update, 9 months never banned, one of the best tools of the ps3 scene and many thanks to site for giving me the opportunity to thank the great developers like KW. Sorry for my bad English.

Rebug + Retroarch + PSNPatch + UMS + PS3 Net Server GUI + Rebug PS2 Classic Fix + webman-mod = BLISS :)

keep up the awesome work, respective devs to each team :)
 
I'm just curious, but I know the restart/shutdown key combos still work after cobra is disabled even with new stealth3. Is this intended? (Rebug 4.70.1 Rebug/Retail/CexQA/CobraOn/Webman-mod 1.41.41/PSNPatch 4.70.07 (seen this since 4.66, wasn't sure if intended or not)
If intended, no big deal, if not intended, curious if something is wrong on my end :)

Providing you configure webman to ignore the unload shortcut (I do this in my own system), it will stay resident in memory after psnpatch disables CFW.
It will not be able to mount new backups nor any CFW related function. But it still can receive the shortcuts, display the status messages and respond to shutdown and restart commands.

freakin' A, I thought I saw a donate link before :( No doubt $0nY had something to do with that

While PayPal was active, KW didn't receive more than like 5 or 6 euros.
So it doesn't make a change to have it disabled or not. ;)

I went back in and enabled the webman unload shortcut, saved, restarted and tested again. Even with the wmunload shortcut enabled, it still has the same result. I also reverted to webMAN 1.41.38 MOD REBUG EDITION (what it came with) to find the same thing.
I don't want to call it an issue (I honestly like the restart shortcut tbh), but I also know you are constantly improving, developing, etc. and wanted to make sure that this was the desired result :)

Well ... If it continues to do it, is a webman related issue. I can not help you further.

(Edit)
Try to press and hold l2-r2-r3 until you see BOTH PSNPatch and webman messages.
