How to install the latest Rebug CFW

UPDATED GUIDE HERE

Finally, I decided to post my guide to installing the latest Rebug CFW on your PS3.

If you're on OFW higher than 3.55, you CAN'T install CFW directly! You need to check if your model is old enough to be hackable (older than June 2011). If you're lucky enough and it is hackable, you can use a hardware flasher (NOR Guide | NAND Guide) to dump your 3.56+ flash, patch it and re-flash it before you can install CFW using the guides below.

If you're on 3.55 or lower OFW, or a hardware flasher patched 3.56+ OFW, or any 4.46 or lower CFW, you can install Rebug 4.46.1 LITE from XMB by following the guide below:

1- Dump your NOR/NAND Flash (optional):
If already on CFW, install latest version of multiMAN CEX, plug in a FAT32 formatted USB flash drive into the right USB port, launch multiMAN under the Game column and go to mmOS > Press

on any file > Open in HEX viewer > Press SELECT > Press START > Export GameOS LV2: Select No > Export HV LV1: Select No > Export FLASH: Select Yes
This creates a backup of your NOR/NAND flash so that you can recover using a hardware flasher in case of a (highly unlikely) brick. It is recommended to do it every time you upgrade/downgrade your CFW just in case something goes wrong.

2- Install Rebug 4.46.1 LITE from XMB:
Download Rebug 4.46.1 LITE from Rebug's website, verify the md5 hash, rename the PUP to PS3UPDAT.PUP, put it on your FAT32 formatted flash drive in PS3\UPDATE, go to System Update and Update via Storage Media. Make sure there's NO original game disk in the drive, NO game is mounted and that you DON'T Update via Internet or else you would risk installing OFW >3.55!

3- Enable QA:
Go to Package Manager > Install Package Files > PS3 Hard Disk and install Rebug Toolbox. Launch it under the Game column, go to Utilities and change Toggle QA Flag to Enabled. This is to ensure easier and safer downgrading.

Notes:
  • OFW 4.55 has been released, make sure you don't accidentally update. You also need a spoofer to connect to PSN (with ban risk).
  • Make sure you use mM 4.46.00 or higher because older versions are not compatible with this CFW.
  • Make sure you install the Rebug Toolbox pkg included inside Package Manager because older versions are not compatible with this CFW.
  • Make sure you use reActPSN v2.27 or higher because older versions might not be fully compatible with this CFW.

Maybe a stupid question but Should it show something else besides 4.46 for the system version in the settings menu? Like rebug4.46 or cfw4.46, etc...

I have tried to load a few games from multiman but it just kicks me back to xmb or says I have to update software with newer games?

Am I missing a step to get the games working?

So is it possible to play new games (2014 releases, madden 15, etc...) with rebug lite 4.46?
And if so some help please And if not is there another way?

Yes you can, just select Yes when mM asks you to fix a newer game.

Once mM mounts a game and kicks you back to XMB, start the game from the disk icon.

Shame deank is still nowhere to be seen, no Multiman 4.65.00 D:


Deank just show up at ps3hax forum and greets anybody there. I am there right now. :)

By the way, I updated from 3.41 to 4.46 LITE without using recovery mode. I didn't have a problem before. Why recovery mode anyway ?

Why do we need Multiman 4.65 ;o ?
I mean the older version works fine and it patches up new games so idk what's the purpose of new versions.
I'm still waiting for Rogero but he's angry cause pauline leaked his 4.60 firmware and now won't do it anymore (time was one of the issues too).

So it is. Last time I tried Multiman 4.60 with a 4.65 CFW it was saying it couldn't start the BD emulator, or something to that effect. Starting and working fine with Rebug though.
EDIT: Or not... Gonna keep trying, see if I can figure out why it isn't.

There's a unreleased version of multiman on ps3hax, idk if it works or not.
I'll be sticking with rogero for now.

That one was patched for a specific version of Habib's 4.65. Webman and every other manager are all good, I was just hoping for a working Multiman port so I could use Stealthman.

Oh you don't believed me ?

Pm you.

You didn't mentioned which CFW but 4.65 wasn't available for REBUG until it just released now. Maybe that's why it didnt work for you. Guess what ? I am comfortable with REBUG team so I go with their properly CFW. Anyway, I just speak with those people and they said you can update it without a recovery mode.. Either will works just fine. I agreed since I updated 3.41 REBUG to 4.46 REBUG through XMB previously and it worked beautifully.

It's not that I don't believe you, it's that I tried to find his recent post but couldn't find any. I checked the link that you PM'd me, but that's not deank...

Hey guys, I bought a ps3 last night. Originally it was on 3.50, and the person said it was working and he had backups. Then he updated to 3.55, when I try to install the latest Rebug. I get the following error: "The data is corrupted (80029CCA)

    @K3Nv2 Snow Day is pretty fun. My only bitch would be the camera controls, when you move around, say down, you have to move the right stick left or right to get camera to turn and get your view, other than that I like it so far.

    From what people say pvp isn't even worth it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, take into consideration how economy was back then

    Yeah that's why they listed inflation rates
