PS3 How to get old gameboot + console boot for 4.82?

I think that coldboot may be in the custom_render_plugin.rco . I decrypted both 1.02 and 2.00, and there's no coldboot file. I think one of the files in there (the custom_render_plugin.rco) says sony computer entertainment. it's the same rco that contains the gameboot image. I'm not sure if there is a way to get it back short of creating a custom coldboot. that coldboot may be in the xmb modifications' section of the site, but I'm not really sure.

that red image might be being caused by the lines.qrc (the xmb wave). there are 24 backgrounds in it. I'm not sure which one is being displayed though. that's just a guess since the wave seems to be stock. does it happen with other 4.82 firmwares?
 
Damn, oh well. I changed the wave to the classic one without the particles because I like it more, but even with the particles it boots up red. I think this is something to do with ferrox cobra 4.82


This video shows the same thing happening. No matter what colour I choose the startup is always red.
 
I did a little bit of research. the coldboot.raf didn't exist before 2.70, so I think my assumption was correct - that it was a part of the custom_render_plugin.rco. you'll have to search for a coldboot like that or make one. I have a tutorial on doing this.

don't know about ferrox. I've always used rebug. have you tried rebug lite to see if it still happens?

Last time I installed rebug lite I got a softbrick, maybe because my previous attempt at installing a gameboot was using a dud file. Can I just install it over my current cfw?
 
it won't work, no. it may work if you upload it, but I'm not really sure. there may be additional patches in that file.
 
unknown. I made your coldboot by using the custom_render_plugin.rco:

Hm ok, I just really don't want to risk bricking my console again. They're both 4.82 so in theory wouldn't it work? Or are ferrox and rebug very different?

As for the coldboot, it's a different one and doesn't look very nice, but thanks for trying anyway. The "PS3" one doesn't look that bad anyway.

you can install one over top the other.

well, I spent about 20 minutes making the thing. I didn't alter the size, so I don't see how the original could be that different. it looks like it doesn't fade in which can be done with a colored coldboot.
 
It's just a different font and says interactive instead of computer, maybe I'll try modify it. Thankyou so much though!

I just meant before, will the gameboot plugin you gave me work on rebug 4.82.1 le?

yes just reinstall it through multiMAN
 
this should look much better, at least it does to me. :):
