PS3 NFW 3.55 v3 Custom Firmware, Includes Cobra USB Support

Using this now, wondering if I would still be able to play online with this NFW? Is there any chance of my ps3 being bricked?

Very nice! Can't work out if the 3.70 spoof PUP has region change built in or if the region change PUP has 3.70 spoof built it - I would potentially need both features tbh.

Loving the cinavia workaround feature too

thanks man
