That is probably when it was released to the devs by Sony.

"To try or not to try , that is the question " << Shakespeare wrote this when he had converted to DEX LOL
By the way someone (dev) should check if its safe to use it (install a flasher before installing just in case) .
Also always beware if it has any "surprise" or tracking feature (who knows what has this thing on it ) .

This DEX Firmware came out long time ago and it was also told that was not allowed to install on CEX Machine becuz Sony made some changes that checks whether the PS3 is an actual DEX or not and cause Bricking..
So be aware of what you're dealing with if you ever attempt to install this on your CEX machine

No. DEX 4.30 was not released. If it was show proof. Cause this is the first time I have seen it.

Waiting for some tests :D

Maybe Rebug will find a solution with this bricking monster!
So hopefully we can enjoy a 4.30 REX, and not only 4.21!

The file name makes me think it has been out since Oct. 17, 2012. PS3UPDAT.PUP.430.001.forDEX.release.20121017

EDIT - Just confirmed, that this will brick your CEX to DEX converted console. CECH-2001A converted from CEX, installed from PS3ita 4.21 DEX CFW. Installed fine to 100%. On reboot after install, 3 beeps and flashing red light.

Yeah, I wouldn't try and install this unless you have a real test unit.

Only for official developers. Or inside groups.
Not for us Users.
Of course it bricks. But we can still decrypt it and get the goodies.
People do have real Dev units and can install it, And get the files too.

Yes, the readme for rebug rex 4.21 said that they made 4.21 instead of 4.30 because 4.30 will brick your console which is why they made 4.30 cex only later. Yes this is old.

If the eEID5 is the problem, as far as I know we can change our target id in eEID5 with ObjectSuite.

One good thing about this release so far is people who are on 4.30 and 4.31 now have a cinavia fix.

I know MiralaTijera released a fix already but it was kinda broken.

$ony could bring a new update for weeks now but instead of that they use the ban hammer to get the cfw users from psn.
I think they are working on a big update that is hard to crack just like after the 3.55 time.

Rogero and Rebug 4.30 CFW both already have working cinavia fixes..

People on 4.30 and 4.31 CEX of course, wont have cinavia fixed from this release...

cheers for the test...player

so it bricks....and this must have been around for awhile..they just not share it, maybe took/used it on real dex to get something going?

, job done and let it floats the internets....

full eid cex2dex is the way, this scene is a hard ball....

yup, but this isn't changing "full eid5" only the "IDPS" > 82 and not fully converted like eid0 so with that tool its real save way to switch

but not full eid5 cex2dex conversion, it needs a full conversion/calculation however one does it..else its just not full dex

Apparently GTA:V devs used 4.30 DEX.

Blatantly someone had it but withheld it, as they knew way back then that 4.30 would brick a converted dex.

That method does not really need anything, only sony can give you a valid eid5

if we just knew what to calculate from where to where (eid5) isnt it the same procedure as convert eid0 using our rootkey+the keyseeds, must be possible if u know howto

I fear this aswell. Ive got a very strong feeling that 4.30 CFW is going to be the last CFW for a while just like 3.55 was. And I bet you it will be something like fw 5.0. To mark the beginning of this new security feature in the firmware

I can't see Sony doing this due to the fact PS4 is imminent Sony will want to sell all there PS3 stock within a few years so they might allow future PS3 updates to be hacked IMO

I doubt it. They can't do anything about hackable PS3s. We got the keys.

Also, there is a 4.31 CFW. So 4.30 CFW definitely isn't the last.

Oops I forgot about 4.31

Ya I know we have the keys to patch future firmwares its just that its sony. Im pretty sure they are looking into every angle possible to maybe have some sort of extra verifying check or some crap that is encrypted etc. You never know

how will they do that in a fw ? when we can decrypted everything in a pup

for the ps3 to decrypted something new ,i guess the ps3 would have to know how to decrypted it .
which would be in the pup file and like i said above we got the keys to decrypted everything in a pup
so devs would find it i guess

Ok I understand what you saying now

. I did know that lv0 was used to decrypt firmwares but I didnt stop to realise that if sony was going to patch it they would have to do a hardware revision.

Does anyone know if the "HDCP" option is non-functional on c2d units because of hardware difference, or is it because of incomplete conversion? If hardware related, that could be their check right there, although I've always assumed CEX and DEX machines are identical, hardware-wise.

it only works on these special av ps3's. but deank has said he could deactivate it with target manager. i also have tried it, but it did not work for me.

They are identical hardware wise, but that does not mean they are configured the same.

It sets it in software to offstate, but the Syscon and HDMI tranceiver are still set in onstate since boottime.

I was checking the wiki and it seems that:
"There is a check on eid0(!) in lv1ldr, that will trigger a panic (fun fact: it's impossible to generate the checked data yourself, so no cex2dex without ugly patches anymore). "

It may be patchable. The scene can be very negative so I want to stay positive about this.

If otherOs can be brought back to the ps3, and to ps3's that were never intended to have otherOs, I hope this check can be patched out of the firmware.

As for when will Sony stop with the PS3 updates? I say not for a very long time. Sony would still need to support the blu-ray on the PS3. Once the PS4 comes out, there will be a price drop and many will swarm the ps3 with it's extensive and unique library and the blu-ray player.

As long as blu-ray movies keep getting released, there will be firmware updates.
