With the recent release of OFW 4.88, and seeing that no CFW 4.88 has come out in these last days, PS3 developer Evilnat decided to make a new update of his CFW with a number of new options like an added File manager, Option to toggle Cobra debug/normal versions, disable CFW syscalls, block PSN login if CFW syscalls are enabled and several fixes and improvements. Cobra 8.3 is added from Github repository and it is enabled by default It has been tested for a long time since Evilnat was developing 4.87.3, it took months of research, developing and tests and a few weeks for 4.88. No bugs have been found, but if there are any, feel free to let him know and Evilnat will fix it as soon as possible. To avoid issues, make sure you have the latest version of your favorite homebrews like, webMAN MOD, ManaGunZ, multiMAN, Movian, etc…

Do you still need to use PSNPatch to access the PSN store as a little unsure about the SEN/PSN Enabled in the readme file. I tried with PSNPatch/X option but unable to get download list in Account Management. Signed in OK but failed on some things. Many thanks for this release too. Installed fine over 4.87 Ferrox CFW with no issues. June 21st, 2021 at 2:35 am Zengobag says:
UPDATE. PSX, PS2, PS3 and PSP ISO’s working fine through webMan MOD 1.47.32 Can access download list but get an error. Checked error number on internet and tried to activate PS3 but get same error number. Can you look into it please. Many thanks. June 21st, 2021 at 5:49 am shin oni says:

@shin oni You can try installing CFW 4.88.2 Evilnat Cobra 8.3 [CEX] [BETA] Link: Mega Maybe your issue is related to one of the fixed issues. This is the changelog: July 8th, 2021 at 1:46 pm Zengobag says:
Lost a few options with your first release. Had to revert back to Ferrox Version to get back.. Playstation Store was not there in Package Manager for some reason.. Willing to test this version for you.. BETA version.. What is happening with PSN store Access.. Can’t use Ferrox as need 4.88 firmware.. Is it safe to use without PSN??? – forgot the name. lol.. too many beers last night!!! Wouldn’t work with your first release. Is it PSNReact?? Just ripping ALL the Mega CD/Sega CD games to PS3 HDD (That I have – some missing but still 80Gb in size) so can’t check app names at moment. Any help would be grateful.. Thanks.

NON RELATED… Still copying the Sega CD’s over… Look at time stamp.. Took ages to install D3:RoS of which I backed up before installing from store.. 22GB if anyone interested in that.. UK Version. Russian is 12GB if anyone wants it.. Will need to log in to PSN store and get from download list.. July 9th, 2021 at 9:18 am Zengobag says:
PSN Store is a big thing for me.. I have over £300 in purchases from there.. Many x-buys.. So I have paid for PS3 version and have Vita and PS4 versions too of same game.. I don’t want my account banning due to using CFW.. Looking in to buying a PS4 Pro pretty soon.. The Store gives me an Instant library for PS4.. Would you advise switching to OFW and getting the stuff off store and switch back to CFW after for another back-up.. 4Tb NTFS drive ready for PS3 backing up.. and YES.. MultiMan – Restart in CFW mode – Button in Lower Left -> PFS driver.. Scans and then I start the 1Tb backup.. lol Told you I wasn’t a noob in first post.. hehe July 9th, 2021 at 9:34 am shin oni says:
hi, updated to beta version, still havin controller issues..some buttons work but not in right way.. July 9th, 2021 at 3:06 pm aldostools says:
@shin It could be an issue with your controller. Try using a different controller or downgrade to the last version where the controller worked without issues. I haven’t experienced any issues in the controller. July 9th, 2021 at 6:09 pm aldostools says:
@Zengobag My advice is that create another account, so you use one for purchases and another only to play online. That way if your account is banned, you don’t lose your purchases from your primary account. Before login to SEN/PSN, you *always must* disable the CFW syscalls. Doing this your CFW technically is OFW. NEVER launch a backup manager or homebrews while you’re connected to PSN. And the most important *DO NOT* use cheats or mods online… July 9th, 2021 at 6:18 pm Gamersline says:

HI, I updated my CFW to CFW 4.88 Evilnat CEX Cobra 8.3 on my fat ps3 and now ps2 games wont load or if they do i just get the starting screen and then it freezes. Any help would be great, and yes I had the ps2 iso on the internal hard drive, and tried irishman and and webman games still wont load. September 5th, 2021 at 8:37 pm aldostools says:
@retro_king If CFW 4.88 Evilnat CEX Cobra 8.3 is causing issues, use the latest Rebug Toolbox 2.03.06 to enable the QA flags, reboot then install your previous CFW. If the problem still persists on the previous CFW, then the issue could be the ISO images or a hardware issue. September 5th, 2021 at 10:34 pm retro_king says:
@aldostools Hi, thanks for your reply, Rebug Toolbox doesn’t work on CFW 4.88 Evilnat CEX Cobra 8.3, Previous CRW? I didn’t think you could roll back after updating to CFW 4.88 Evilnat CEX Cobra 8.3? September 5th, 2021 at 11:46 pm aldostools says:
Follow the instructions: Rebug Toolbox 2.03.06 is compatible. I made the changes. If QA flags are enabled, you can downgrade to any FW version. September 6th, 2021 at 9:01 am retro_king says:
ha cool, thanks aldostools, the Rebug Toolbox 2.03.06 works, I managed to get one ps2 game working, but then when I tried castlevania i get the loading screen then have to reswitch my ps4 dual controller back on by ps button, then soon as I do that the screen freezers and I have to reboot September 6th, 2021 at 1:34 pm retro_king says:
aldostools says:
I depends of your needs. Evilnat 4.88.2 Cobra 8.3 <= Very stable. Allows PSN access. New PSN features in Cobra / CFW Tools September 6th, 2021 at 9:41 pm retro_king says:
thankyou, just a quick note, how many times can you downgrade? can you run dex on cex machine? September 6th, 2021 at 9:54 pm aldostools says:
If QA flags are enabled, there is no limitation in the number of installations. Rebug 4.84.2 REX allows to convert CEX console to DEX and back to CEX using Rebug Toolbox. September 6th, 2021 at 9:58 pm retro_king says:
your very knowledgeable I appreciate your help, I wont ever install the official firmware lol now i know i can lower or higher the firmware that’s made me feel more relaxed SO THANKYOU. September 6th, 2021 at 10:08 pm retro_king says:
need your help again @aldostools so I downgraded to Rebug 4.84.2 REX Cobra 8.1 ps2 games work fine now, but i want to play psn ps3 games that I have a collection off, but FATER I Installed the pkg to the psn game and used psnpatch I get an error message when i try to load the game, so anyway i found that i need to log into my psn account to activate psn games to be able to play them, but i cant log in due to the fact im on cfw 4.84.2 firmware, so i tried to follow a tutorial lastnight regards to update text file, but it requires me loading multiman and going into File manager / mmos but it says in brackets its disabled, so now Im clueless on how i can get around to playing psn games on my fat ps3, any help would be great? September 9th, 2021 at 10:14 pm aldostools says:
Your options to activate an account are: September 9th, 2021 at 10:35 pm retro_king says:
thanks for your quick reply, some psn games don’t have a exdata or rap file just crack pkg, also with Rebug 4.84.2 REX Cobra 8.1 when i upload pkg files to pkg folder on ps3 they don’t show in the folder on my ps3, is there anyway to enable this in Rebug 4.84.2 REX Cobra 8.1 September 9th, 2021 at 11:05 pm aldostools says:
If the game/DLC is signed as FREE npDRM, they do not require a rap in exdata. All purchased games/DLC require a rap (except if the right information file (rif) is already installed). The packages should be placed in the root of USB or in /dev_hdd0/packages to show in Package Manager. I see you have too many questions about basic things. I recommend you that visit http://psx-place.com/forums September 9th, 2021 at 11:27 pm ghost1991 says:
hi if i update my ps3 to this version help please September 30th, 2021 at 11:20 am aldostools says:
@ghost1991 it is not enough to wipe the history. You must also disable the CFW syscalls before login to PSN. This CFW implements a new safety feature that blocks the Sign to PSN screen if the CFW syscalls are enabled. It is recommended to also disable the auto-login to PSN. September 30th, 2021 at 11:57 am ghost1991 says:
@aldostools nice so if i want to go online and entering the store i disable the auto-login to PSN long time ago September 30th, 2021 at 2:02 pm aldostools says:
@ghost1991 reboot after you finish with PSN to enable the CFW syscalls. This new CFW allows to re-enable the CFW syscalls without reboot. If you reboot, there are less possible mistakes. September 30th, 2021 at 2:11 pm ghost1991 says:
@aldostools ok September 30th, 2021 at 5:40 pm aldostools says:
CFW syscalls are enabled by default. They must be disabled manually before login to PSN. September 30th, 2021 at 6:02 pm ghost1991 says:
@aldostools i need some help pls October 2nd, 2021 at 5:57 pm aldostools says:

No. But you can use Apollo Save Tool by bucanero. Fake save data is a debug feature available in Rebug REX 4.84.2 March 14th, 2022 at 2:25 pm MoDzITALY says:
in rebug I have a problem that I cannot update cfw to 4.88 evilnat, it does not find the relevant files on the usb, yet I was on rebug 4.84 D-REX EDITION and I switched to rebug 4.86 LE EDITION without problems, how can I update rebug to evilnat, someone explain it to me. Thanks April 26th, 2022 at 6:51 pm aldostools says:
@MoDzITALY you need to put the PUP on the USB drive in the folder X:\PS3\UPDATE The PUP must be named PS3UPDAT.PUP (verify that you are showing the file extensions) If you have issues accessing your USB drive, you can FTP the PUP file to /dev_hdd0/updater/01 You need to enable QA Flags in Rebug Toolbox and enable Debug Update in QA menu. There will be a new option in System Update menu that will let you install from the System Storage device. April 26th, 2022 at 7:22 pm MoDzITALY says:
ok thanks, one last question, if i can do the installation of this cfw, after i need to enable sen enabler spoof (i’m not that good at modding ) April 26th, 2022 at 7:26 pm aldostools says:
You don’t need SEN Enabler with Evilnat CFW. One of the measures is that the PSN login is disabled by default. You’re forced to disable the CFW syscalls to gain the access. There are other tools that allow to create a fake account that let you play PSN games without going online. April 26th, 2022 at 7:31 pm MoDzITALY says:
MoDzITALY says:
I have a problem, the qa flags do not go, rebug toolbox tells me that it is not available to activate it, how can I do? April 26th, 2022 at 7:58 pm MoDzITALY says:
MoDzITALY says:
MoDzITALY says:
And then one more thing, if I should stay in 4.86 lite Edition REBUG, the Sen Enabler spoof gives me the version of 4.87, and it’s not 4.88 day is that okay? April 26th, 2022 at 8:18 pm MoDzITALY says:
last question and I’ll leave you alone, webman mod [4.88] can i install it if i have rebug 4.86? April 26th, 2022 at 8:23 pm MoDzITALY says:
then I have the update but while it is running it stops and gives me the error 8002F82B, how do I fix this problem? April 26th, 2022 at 8:45 pm MoDzITALY says:
