I think Sony has realised that many people are still using the PS3 so they are tryna break the console on purpose so that people may buy the ps4 or even ps5
It makes sense my friend, but it's only a matter of time before Sony's future consloes have only digital media, so profits will be greater without spending on physical media. The PS5 is proof of this, it already has a model that only accepts digital, this is just the beginning of a new era.
Well, my friend, although some errors affect few PS3 users who installed 4.91, as the days go by, more reports appear. I'm glad that everything went well for you.
this update bricked my a01 model that had cfw. i was able to restore it in safe mode via usb to ofw and havent had any issues since the restore, it did take a couple tries but eventually it went thru. My slim that runs hen is still on 4.90 but I havent used that console since I scored the a01. I agree with the comment that sony is trying to go after older hardware to make people buy the new, I already have a ps5 but my ps3 is fully bc so i have 5 generations of sony between 2 consoles. tldr - if not modded the update should be fine. if cfw dont do it.
4.90 HEN I’m never updating I use Bypass’s And plan to play PS3 even when service is down , I hope people just hack and move to the PS4 more instead of buying a PS5 like there trying to get us to do witch is crazy 💯
Hi, I am planning to purchase a 60GB Launch Model sometime in the future (for full backward compatibility) I have no plans to modify it. Do you think I'll be able to safely update to version 4.91? If not, I think I'll format the drives before playing any games on it.
Be careful, the 1st gen full backwards compatible ps3's are kind of like a ticking time bomb. Certain later games in the console library really push the older models hard. You may want to look into the "Frankie " mod before you start to use the console regularly.
Hello guys I have one question…. I didn’t do this update but my ps3 is no jailbroken….i have a lot of ps3 games that I can play so I don’t have a problem….if I do the update I will have any problem? Is there anyway I can bypass it without jailbreak ???
After updated to 4.91, on day 3, my ps 3 need to restore system because error, but after that, play normal until now. I play original bluray disc not mod/CFW. Next i need original ps 1 and ps 2. Now its so hard to search new old stock. Hmmmmmm......
The problem is most of the games require 4.90 firmware. And ends up on a black screen I'm using 4.75 and NBA2k17, Pes18 all ends up on a blackscreen. I need help
I got all of them except for slim model and im not undating and i dont modd or do anything except play physical copies of everything so im not chancing shat..ty for the azss save
Can i please get some help? I cant update to 4.91 my ps3 is not jail broken or anything, i get an error (8002F878) when i try to update, i cant find any useful info about this error code, not even on the playstation website.
Unfortunately, Sony is doing this on purpose, so that players can buy digital media, or to force them to purchase a new generation console. all to make more money, they don't care about their old customers
@@DewlayLomoReally you got the Ps3 Fat Lady Version that can originally plays PS2 Disks? And after the 4.91 Update it doesn't work anymore ??? And can't you reset to factory settings anymore?
@@pabloescobar5371 yup, i have the one that can play ps2 discs. After the update, the system doesn’t recognize the ps2 discs or dvd movie discs. I didnt try factory reset. The funny thing is, when i jailbroke the ps3, i can play the ps2 backups from the internal hard drive.

I’m currently on ver 4.31… Any advice/updates on your end? Thanks
I have the fat PS3 model (60GB) the limited edition one that can run PS2 games. After these updates my PS3 reads my games discs but the disc icon won't appear to launch the game, I thought it was disc drive or laser issue as it has gathered a lot of dust over the years but weird thing is it will let me play PS2 games smoothly and will only read & play one PS3 game an that is COD: Black Ops but nothing from all other games no matter the condition of the disc. Either this update has messed the settings of PAL/NTSC, confusing the system of what it can play and not OR my blu ray laser is too worn out to read double layered blue ray discs. I think its Sony deliberately sabotaging our systems so upgrade to new systems.
I have the PHAT full backwards compatible OG model, just fired it up for the first time in over 10 years. It’s still on Version 4.3, was wondering if I should update to the new 4.91.

You cannot even download updates/dlcs/patches/fixes for your PS3 games without this d4mn update because it won't let you log in! This shows how much dictatorial Sony has become - even about a old entertaiment system.
Evilnat CFW 4.91 is already out, though jailbreak on OFW 4.91 is not quite ready yet, so the CFW can only be installed if you're currently on an older version. It works great and has a lot of new custom features.
@@jestyo0o It's been almost a month since I wrote the comment you replied to. The jailbreak is ready and working, so updating is fine. Still, if you're already on CFW you can just update from CFW to CFW without jailbreaking again, just don't install OFW. If you're on an older version of OFW there's no need to update to OFW 4.91 before jailbreaking. Just go to bgtoolset, jailbreak your current version then install CFW 4.91.
