Do these work on Rebug Cobra Lite 4.86.1?

If you ever owned a PlayStation3 Phat back in the day, chances are that your nostalgic brain remembers the orchesta tune, that Sony implemented back in the PlayStation3 lifespan, until the firmware 2.80.

With the introduction of the PlayStation3 Slim and Firmware 3.00, Sony decided to unify the systems firmware and thus creating a uniform ecosystem, by replacing the signature Phat Orchestra Tune/Coldboot and Gameboot, with the more modern redesign of the PS3, thus removing the iconic PLAYSTATION3 and Sony Computer Entertaniment (Gameboot/Coldboot).

This tutorial aims to bring thoes of you nostalgic fans, back to memory lane of 2006, as well as a little bonus.

Do you think this will work on CFW 4.90?

I'm using this that some user of the forum managed to restore. he is the original of fw2.80. I don't remember the user name to give the credits but anyway ... with this .rco I just needed to delete the .raf.

Wow this is perfect,or is it? I'm not sure if the position of SCE with this .rco is exactly the same as the original. Anyway, thanks for sharing

So while surfing the web,i stumbled across some intresting video from PSM3, if any of you 90s kids remember, PSM or PlayStation Magazine,was a PlayStation Magazine published in the 90s during the PS1,PS2 and PS3 era,which usualy came bundled with demo discs.

During the PlayStation3 launch in 2006, PSM received a Pre-Production Debug PlayStation3,from the looks of it and the chassis transparency it doesnt look like a DECHA00A, although it has the Debug functionality enabled, although it looks like a CBEH1000 or a CBEH1100, anyway the model doesnt matter,but what its worth looking its the Pre-Production XMB shipped with it, from the looks of it its either a 0.090 or a 0.095 XMB, notice the different Start-Up tune, the delayed Sony Computer Entertaniment Coldboot, and the PLAYSTATION3 Gameboot wave transparency without any sound, neat stuff for devs to explore and recreate.

If either of you have knowledge on what version of the firmware it might be, your contribution its greatly appreciated

- Pre-Production XMB In-Depth

- Pre-Production Start-Up

I would like that start-up too, does anyone know where to find it?
