PS3 [UPDATE] PASTA 4.84 STANDARD DEX + COBRA DEX CFW (by Joonie) for debug/converted consoles


It's pretty much inspired by @Rancid-o 's PS3iTA except this does not come with "CFW Setup" homebrew neither "Package Manager". I know the demographic is very little for this type of CFW but I could image this this would be still useful for those who do not want COBRA neither REBUG.

The features are pretty basic.For PSN, you will either have to use CCAPI or webMAN to spoof IDPS if your unit is converted retail

This is exactly what I've been looking for in a CFW. My only request is, can you please remove the Game Quit, & Fake Save Data Owner notifications. Thank you for all your hard work :)

How identical is this to actual DEX firmware? Besides the changes specified in the patch notes.

The PUP is built out of DEX OFW and everything that's patched is noted in the patch notes.

Grab game_ext_plugin from REBUG 4.84.1 REX or D-REX and your annoying messages will be gone.

@Joonie I'm really loving this CFW. I was just wondering if you could release a COBRA version, or tell me which files I need to take from REBUG in order to add COBRA myself (if that's even a possibility).

I'm going to quote/change a few lines from the original author's post.

To mix COBRA 8.01 with a 4.84 DEX CFW, replace/add the 7 following files:

  • CORE_OS_PACKAGE: lv2_kernel.self (replace with the one from REBUG 4.84.1 D-REX)
  • /dev_flash/ps2emu/ps2_emu.self (replace)
  • /dev_flash/ps2emu/ps2_gxemu.self (replace)
  • /dev_flash/ps2emu/ps2_netemu.self (replace)
  • /dev_flash/rebug/cobra/stage2.dex (add)
  • /dev_flash/ps2emu/ps2hwemu_stage2.bin (add)
  • /dev_flash/ps2emu/ps2gxemu_stage2.bin (add)
But I do not recommend this if you don't have a flasher yourself since a simple mistake can lead bricking your system.

I actually thought about a COBRA version of this FW. So I'd say just wait for a few days.

Thank you for your reply, especially about the brick warning. I'll just wait until you release a COBRA version :)

Just a quick question, i've attempted to install webMAN MOD as it states its supported in the patch notes, but inside the webMAN category is just blank.

webMAN doesn't work out of the box without COBRA or MAMBA that supports plugin support. you need a working prx loader that can load webMAN.
