| Showtime v4.01 |
Note: You must have multiMAN version 04.12.00 installed on the PS3 before
updating to CFW4.30 v2.00 or you won't be able to install Package files
because 4.30 v2.00 DOES NOT have a "* Install Package Files" XMB entry
like the other CFWs.
If you forgot to install latest mM and you are already on Rogero 4.30CFW v2.00 you can still update it by using one of these 2 methods:
1- Download this ZIP file. Put it on a USB stick and double-click/install it from mmOS and then REBOOT your PS3 and install latest mM from the bubble/PSN icon.
If you forgot to install latest mM and you are already on Rogero 4.30CFW v2.00 you can still update it by using one of these 2 methods:
1- Download this ZIP file. Put it on a USB stick and double-click/install it from mmOS and then REBOOT your PS3 and install latest mM from the bubble/PSN icon.
2- Use any FTP program (if openps3/blackbox is already installed) and
transfer the unzipped files to [/dev_hdd0/vsh/task/00000002 folder] then
REBOOT your PS3 and install latest mM from the bubble/PSN icon.

| Rogero 4.30 v2 |
CFW4.30 Version 2.00 MD5: 116ecceb79b2adde8479fd24951a5a90
CFW4.30 Version 2.00 Size: 191 MB (201,263,364 bytes)
For all the users that are having the Singstar Icon on XMB, please know that this is a pure Original FW 4.30 issue and this is a proof that I have used original 4.30 XMB files in v2.00.
This is only showing for some users and not for all, I did not have this Icon on any PS3 i have tested the CFW v2.00 on it.
Here's two link to the SingStar problem with OFW4.30 :

| Roger v4.21 |
CFW4.21 Version 2.00 MD5: 9e3053031c58490ebaf5ea5e6c7cb34c
CFW4.21 Version 2.00 Size: 191 MB (201,153,979 bytes)
This CFW4.21 is almost the same as the 4.30 version except it have some add-ons that can't be added to ver 4.30 currently:
1- It does have the default "Install Package Files" node on XMB. (no need to have multiMAN installed before using it)
2- It does have LV1 Checks Disabled and can be used directly instead of Rogero3.55 v3.7 while downgrading with Hardware Flashers.
3- It does have the Proper Cinavia Disabled Files for the users who needs it.
N.B:
CFW4.30 v2.00 also have LV1 checks disabled, but you can't use it directly for downgrading with hardware flashers because it doesn't have the "Install Package files" from XMB yet (working on a fix now)
but it have the patches that disables the coreos hashes checks and won't brick when installed on a previously downgraded PS3.
While CFW4.21 v2.00 do have the LV1 checks also disabled + "Install Package Files" from XMB, so it can be used directly instead of Rogero3.55 v3.7 for downgrading using hardware flashers.
Thanks for the mirror links : Gdrive, Senaxx, LoboGuara, Kacrut and Realth
This CFW was tested on most PS3 Models by different testers and no problems were encountered.
But as any CFW release you must install it with caution and by following proper instructions, No one will be held responsible for any damage caused.

* For details about Downgrading back to CFW/OFW3.55 Please read the Downgrade Guide below
Rogero CFW4.30/4.21 v2.00 Details
4.30 v2.00
- Rebuilt from scratch using OFW4.30 files only (no DEX/SEX files) with official XMB and full features working as in OFW4.30
- All known problems like XMB icons sorting and Demo Mode issues from v 1.04 are now all gone with the use of the official XMB.
- Removed the classical "Install Package Files" Icon from XMB to have a 100% original XMB (no DEX/SEX files used).
- Installing Package Files can be done from multiMAN 04.12.00 (XMMB Home column or MMOS File Manager).
- Patched LV1 to disable LV2 Protection.
- Patched LV1 to add peek/poke support to replace hvc 182/183 (multiMAN Direct Disc Access is now working fine with CFW4.21/4.30 v2.00)
- Patched LV1 to disable SYSTEM MANAGER INTEGRITY CHECK (to prevent Bricking on non-dehashed downgraded consoles)
- Patched LV1 Core OS Hash Check (to prevent Bricking on non-dehashed downgraded consoles)
- Patched LV2 to add peek/poke support. (for both LV1 and LV2)
- Patched VSH to enable ReActPSN compatibility (Allow Unsigned act.dat and *.rif files, Disable Unlinking/Deleting of act.dat)
- Spoofed the system version to latest OFW version 4.31.
- PSN/SEN access is available as long as the current "passphrase" still the same.
- Loading games from App_home Icon is now fixed.
- It can run games signed with Keys up to version 4.30 without any Eboot/Sprx patching needed
- Games can be loaded from Disc Icon (with Original game in BD) and from app_home (Disc-less, but not all games).
- Current 3.55 homebrew applications can't be loaded on this CFW, applications must be re-signed properly for FW4.21/4.30
4.21 v2.00
- Same Features as CEX_4.30 v2.00 plus the following add-ons:
1- It does have the default "Install Package Files" node on XMB. (no need to have multiMAN installed before using it)
2- It does have LV1 Checks Disabled and can be used directly instead of Rogero3.55 v3.7 while downgrading with Hardware Flashers.
3- It does have the Proper Cinavia Disabled Files for the users who needs it.
ATTENTION:
1- This CFW does have LV1 checks disabled and can be installed on Downgraded PS3 consoles even if not dehashed after downgrade. Just in case anyone still need to dehash, here's the linkLink ----> Dehashing Tutorial
2- Always make a NOR/Nand dump using multiMAN before installing any CFW to have a recovery backup in case of any bricks.
Having a valid NOR/Nand dump is an essential step before upgrading, because you will always have a chance to recover when you have a valid dump.
** A Hardware Flasher alone without a valid dump may not fix your bricked PS3 **
3- The QA flag is better to be always Enabled on your PS3 for safer upgrading/downgrading operations. Link ----> toggle_qa.pkg
4- Please Check the MD5 of the downloaded PUP file before installing any CFW to avoid possible bricks.
5- DO NOT HAVE DISC IN PS3 WHEN UPDATING FIRMWARES..As the PS3 will take the UPDATE from the DISC First.
6- You need to be already on a 3.55OFW or 3.55+ CFW to install this. Installing from any OFW > 3.55 won't work. (Hardware Flasher needed)
- Updating from CFW3.55/4.21/4.30 to the CFW4.21/4.30 v2.00 should be done using the following steps :
1- If you are on any CFW newer then 3.55 you can try updating from Recovery Mode to CFW4.21/4.30 v2.00.
---- If it didn't work (Data corrupted Error), then you'll have to Downgrade back to Rogero CEX3.55 v3.7 using the guide below.
2- Once on Rogero CEX3.55 v3.7 or any 3.55OFW/CFW, Update using the XMB update option to CFW4.21/4.30 v2.00
---- If it didn't work (Data corrupted Error), Start the PS3 into Recovery Menu and update yo CFW4.21/4.30 v2.00.
- Downgrading back to 3.55 is always possible using the following steps :
- Download the Downgrader PUP ---> Downgrader PUP mirror ---> Downgrader PUP
...Size 176MB (184,595,263 bytes) MD5: 49d80e07fc1f5ca1b0840e02e94635db
- Rename the downloaded file to "PS3UPDAT.PUP" and put it on your USB in: "USB\PS3\UPDATE\PS3UPDAT.PUP"
- While on Rogero CFW4.30, go to System Update from XMB and install the Downgrader PUP.

4- If you want to make sure QA flag was set, go to "Network Settings" then apply the following key combo (all at the same time):
L1 + L2 + L3 (press left stick) + R1 + R2 + dpad_down
You should see Edy Viewer, Debug Settings, and Install Package Files if done correctly.
