NOTE: Do NOT install another OFW/CFW/MFW/etc with Rebug Mode enabled. While in Rebug Mode, your system is spoofed (Currently, Rebug 3.55.4 is spoofed to 4.31) and allows access to many features only Rebug Mode allows. Your system will reboot automatically, and you'll be up and running with Rebug 3.55.4 REX Edition. Then go to the left-most column (System) and choose Quit. The Rebug Toolbox is for swapping between Rebug and Normal Mode, and numerous other advanced features (so be careful.) For now, go to the second column (Selector,) and choose the System Mode option. It looks like the XMB, and can be moved around in the pretty much the same manner. Install it.ħth: Now, head over to the installed Rebug Toolbox, and run it. Rebug 3.55.4 REX can be downloaded from here.Ħth: Once you have done so, go to Game/Package Manager/Install Package Files/PS3 Hard Disk and choose the Rebug-Toolbox-02.00.00 package. You should then be on OFW 3.55ģrd: We need to get the Rebug 3.55.4 REX CFW. It will show the update for 3.55, select it, and from there, the updater will tell you what to do.

Then go to System->System Update, and choose Update from Local Storage. This is mostly a precaution incase of accidentally updating to the current OFW.Ģnd: (If already on 3.55, skip this step) Download the 3.55 OFW update, extract it, rename the file to PS3UPDAT.PUP and put it on a USB drive (or an MS if you've got those ports) in (Drive Letter):/PS3/UPDATE/, and plug it into your PS3. We now know your PS3 can install CFW, so, we need to update your system to OFW 3.55.ġst: Unplug your PS3's ethernet cable, and/or disconnect it from wifi. If that number is 3.56 or higher, we need to check your PS3 model type to know if it can be downgraded to 3.55, so go to Q4. Go to Settings/System Settings/System Information and see what number it says next to System Software (Version 3.15)Ģnd: If that number is 3.55 or lower, you can install CFW on you PS3, go to Q3.


Here is what you do:ġst: On your PS3, we need to check what OFW is installed on it. Some can and some cannot, and we need to check if yours can. CFW for 3.55 does NOT allow PSN/SEN access. Running these games will require them to be decrypted, then resigned into 3.55 keys. Q1: What is CFW?ĬFW allows you to run unsigned package files, 3.55 and lower signed packages, play music and video files, install emulators, rip your PS3 games and play them from internal HDD, USB HDD, burned CD/DVD, (MS on the oldest models) or USB flash drive, and play ripped BluRay Movies/PS1 games (and PS2 games for the few still on the oldest PS3 models.) This will NOT allow you to play any unmodified PS3 game requiring 3.60 or higher OFW, as 3.60 and 4.00 each use a new encryption on PS3 games/DLC/etc that 3.55 cannot use normally. Most Recent Sticky Update (): Fixed some details about Data Codes. Ok, so you've come to this post wondering how to install 3.55 CFW.
