Waninkoko finally got a CFW 3.55 yesterday functional and backup support.

A CFW that, quite contrary to what some may think, not based on Flukes1 tools since had a while back Waninkoko developing what is now a reality, and has therefore had to develop their own applications.

Today, specifically along this morning, will be published on Twitter because if he does here we have no doubt that the server will come down, as it did last night after anticipating the news.

We apologize to all you that you saw affected by this problem and hope that never happens again a similar flurry of visits, although it is something that escapes from our hands and we can not avoid.

As I said Waninkoko, the CFW should be available before 12 am, you'll enjoy it.

Apparently this CFW will enable backup managers on the PS3. But there has been a lot of "news" today surrounding this. And a lot of these things have been fake releases. Just wanted to warn everyone, not to blindly install some new CFW until it has been approved and tested by the masses. But the above news appears to be real so all that we need to do is wait until tomorrow and see if anything real pops up!

Its not released yet as far as speculation goes. The news is that is going to be released at noon (Spain time) which is 6AM Eastern Time(USA). I will keep an eye out and update as soon as I hear anything more.

No i have not tried this and I strongly advise not doing this ATM. This CFW has had so much hype following it, so im sure that there will be a fix so it doesnt cause a brick, but right now the only thing that we can do is wait (like we have been)

This thread is now a warning that if you come across this CFW to stay away from it ATM.

I used it and it works just fine on my fat cechk01 ps3. Funny because my original jailbreak did not work on my ps3. I had to use psgroove... I hate when retail stuff doesn't work

Please remember to code tag any external links, an easy way is to highlight your links and press the "#" button on the toolbar.
Or you can manually type in the code tags... [code]Links[/code]
[url] tags need to be removed from links as they make the links live (clickable), they do not display correctly & send a referrer when clicked ie our site details get sent to the other site which can be problematic
