I downloaded the CFW already installed with Peek and Poke, the filename was PS3UPDAT-NEW.PUP, however when you try to update via usb it says no applicable data. I renamed the file PS3UPDAT.PUP and it is found. I'm just wondering is this the official firmware? There was no mention of Netkas and flukes1 in the agreement page. Any ideas?
It's probably a pre-patched CFW. I've got the same file, and that's what it is for me.

Yes its a pre-patched fw. So should I just rename it to PS3UPDAT.PUP and run it?

Correct. Don't forget to run GeoHot's 3.55-jb after word or else it's useless. Currantly GH's JB is really just a patch for adding pgk installtion. I wouldn't be surpised if he updates his patch to undo the peek and poke.

I'm suprised he still has the jb on his website.

Just tested Geohotz's pkg installer. I'm disappointed to find the game won't run cuz I have not bought it.
He did say he wouldn't allow piracy and someone of you thought he just said that to provent lawsuit

We won't know for a while, and even then sony might figure out a way later to detect CFW's.

I hear a rumor that there might be a problem with the peek/poke functions (not console-bricking, or anything that serious), and it's causing console-freezing when accessed by backup managers.

Ive been online with the castlevania trick for about 2 hours

really? And no abnormalities what so ever?
Sony still hasn't put anti-backup measures on PSN, so no Ban whatsoever or something like that for NOW.

You can play normally, but who knows if they'll ban you as soon as possible.

how do we know if this installed correctly? I followed the guide to a t that is posted here:

http://www.ps3-hacks.com/2011/01/10/patch-...-3-55/#comments

but I can't seem to play 'the sims 3' which i ftp'd onto the internal hdd in the games directory with the proper folder name (BLUSXXX).

Multiman just goes back to XMB whenever I chose to play it and Open Manager freezes when i try to open the program from the XMB.
