Kmeaw from our IRC EFNET CHANNEL #PS3Test has released a CFW that enables LVL2 Syscalls, or if you already have Wutangrza CFW installed, all you need to do is run the lvl2.pkg to enable the syscalls. This is a simple .pkg file that you will need to run before running Backup Manager, it will patch lvl2 and add syscalls into the memory, and when you reboot, the syscall?s are removed safely, so when you reboot, you will need to repeat the process

This doesn't seem to be working for me. I install OFW 3.55 and after that I installed Kmeaws firmware over that. I installed multiman and open manager before runnign a backup I ran the lv2 patch and ran multiman and launched my game and selected the disc from the xmb and I just got stuck on the black screen. With open manager I got the same thing.
So I went into recovery mode and restored offical firmware and then into recovery again and installed the kmeaw firmware again and still the same thing.
PS3 slim using my copy of midnight club and a copy of nba jam..

Try using Rogero Manager 7.8 for 3.55. Thats what works for me. Multiman doesn't work with all the games apparently. I was just playing NBA Jam off of it. I also think that if you modified any of the eboots they have to be put back to the originals.

I got it to work but for some reason I had to follow this, seems like others where having the same problems and I had to fix permissions. Here is a quote
Quote:
It seems that alot of folks are having issues installing and running backups on there Ps3′s due to the bug in PL3 that effects file permissions. Here is what I have been doing to get around the black screen hangs and disc read errors.
1. fire up multiman, blackb0x, whatever ftp & transfer your backup
2. run your lv2 pkg of choice
3. run the fix permissions app that is installed from running the package located here ? http://www.mediafire.com/?cyi363utdttieux
The app will go through the HD and correct the file permission errors that come with using PL3. I have been using this method after each game backup I install,
however if you install (ftp/copy) 5 at a time the app only needs to be run once and it will fix all 5 games as it does its magic to the entire drive.
Now as far as USB, hampster driven HD?s etc I can not say as I do not have any of the above so I have not tested it myself.
When I tried gaia and open manger I never tried the permissions fix before uninstalling it and I got black screens and freeze. When I tried to uninstall open manager it says it has been corrupted so now its suck there as corrupted lol.

Yeah for some reason every time i try to run rogero mamnger or open manager all I get is a black screen and the system freezes. Gaia manager with integrated lv2 works find and so does multiman.

I believe you got the waninkoko CFW do not install. Go to ps3hax.net to search for the real kmeaw CFW.

Another question or few depends on whit what i come up during writing :)
so i have successfully made an installation of Kmeaw CFW and than I should install the roger manager...installed it and when i try to run it, ps3 keeps staying in black screen and it does not come up with anything else even after 5 mintues.
as a further reading on that matter, what to do if screen stays black i installed also fix permissions PKG which would allow for user to go further than black screen...
any ideas or the manager should be that way..?
thanks for answer
p.s. any other manager which is better and its signed for 3.55?

If you use the latest Rogero Manager 7.9a there's no need to run the lvl2.pkg each time as this is done when the Rogero Manager starts.
I'm using this to run gt5. works great

That depends on the system...Rogero 7.9a crashes my console if I don't run LVL2.pkg first.
[edit]
Just saw on haxnetwork that Kmeaw released a new version of LVL2.pkg to fix these issues, hopefully we will see Rogero Manager include the fix soon:

Same here with the crashes issues, I didn't post a reply for the same reason because I saw the updated lv2 patcher. All common problems that I expected to see.

Yeah at least for now. The game devs do have the ability to lock games to their regions and I think that they will begin to do this

All for the big buck. Id rather that then the serial numbers on blurays disc and needing to call a hotline to play your game.

thanks for answering
I have another question: Is it possible to revert back to Official Firmware 3.55 or is there no going back?
If it is possible, how would one do that? Do they have to format the hdd or just update with OFW or what?

The devs are not as dumb as sony...they know that they make more money by leaving the games unlocked...they even make games just for this (like sega...they sold countless copies of "Master System" to US users because of the double trophies.

You can revert to 3.41, and reinstall OFW 3.55 from there.
