Hacking [Tutorial]Noob-proof guide on how to get PS3 CFW on OFW 4.82

Even if it says success, you have to wait for the console to power down, if it does not power down after 20 minutes, then simply reboot the console

Another sign is if the wavy background freezes. If it says success and it's still waving it's gonna work resulting in the ps3 turning off. Add it to op as a disclaimer.

What's the differenc between this:
- 4.82 CFW: FERROX - Standard CEX
- 4.82 CFW: FERROX - COBRA 7.53 v1.00

So, now how I can download and play my stuff?

I tried using multiman. It launches even japanese games. I tried natsuiro high school seishun hakusho. it only asked me to "insert an original ps3 disc" i have no idea why it said that, i put in a burned ps2 disc and it was like "okay, that's good enough" and launched the game. Albeit in japanese. I downloaded an english patch but the game is still unplayable due to the dialog not being readable. This also means that if you have gta installed you can install mods.

Compatibility: PS3 2004B works.

Is this good? http://www.psx-place.com/threads/4-82-dualboot-overflow-firmware-for-cfw-users.15478/
Because the one you linked is 4.81 so i think i can't go online with it.
so i have to update it manually every time sony release a firmware?
I'm new on ps3 hacking scene, and i have a lot of games purchased on psn so i really don't want to be banned from psn....

3 things:

When installing the exploit in the webbrowser it says:
- success and imidiatly shut's down
- When i power on my ps3 again it says not shut down properly and starts some repair thing and boots into ps3 gui
- When i install CFW it says data damaged after 75%
