Can someone clear this up for me. Flashing with hermes payload as posted abov (the 1st .hex, not the 2nd .hex on psx-scene,  you know what I'm talking about) and installing bootloader v2.....okay thats all fine and dandy.

However there have been alot of complaints in terms of reliability, and yet teams like PS3Key are relasing the same stuff claiming it works......does it work? Is this stuff 100% or does it suffer the same stuff as the homebrew versions?

I think you flash the main.hex found in the "PIC18f2455 12MHZ BOOTLOADER B5" folder in the pack lew000 linked to.
Then install manager2.pkg found at PSGroove.com via flash drive.
From what i have read compatibility is the same as the previous backup manager as long as you have an original in the BR drive.

I'm still waiting for my diygadget board...i ordered it last Saturday and it still hasnt arrived, and i live in canada. Why it takes over 5 business days to get from ontario to bc is way beyond me, they should atleast offer express post!

PS3Key is releasing the same stuff. thats why they thanked Hermes in their release notes.

And they mentioned with the update that if a game doesn't load without disc, then try inserting an original disk.

Herme's update is a good step forward
but so far its incomplete and i'm sticking with BakcupManager 1.0. (caz if i've to insert the original disc for some games with Hermes' payload, why not let the original disc inside all the time *like i currently do*, and play with the full backupManager1.0 compatibility). less headace ;p

I ordered from DiyGadget a bunch of the JTAG SPIs, .. their support told me it'd take 2,3 weeks to Pakistan. ;p
luckily I got the package on 10th day (today) since it was dispatched.

Not bad i'd say

[Maximize]

yeah I got mine, in like 5 days

[Shroomer]

Bah...you guys just picking on me  
I'm sure it will be here Monday.
Would have liked it for the weekend though!
 

[Shroomer]

Unless you absolutely want F1 to work, it's a waste of time. The new code is buggy and breaks features.

I've read that the new Open Backup Manager, which fixes controller sync issues, works with Hermes v1.

Also despite having been PSGrooving for 3 weeks now, I never bothered to say thanks to Looouky for the guide and confirming that the board I bought would work.

I just compiled Open BM myself, so I can see if I can take a crack at this. I'm going to wait until hermes releases the new payload though as many have said R2 is terrible.

Since i cant edit my original post...thanks Looouky.
Good work!
I wouldnt have bought a ps3 without this guide.

I ordered a pic18f2455 from Diygadget on Sept. 17th and received an email that it got shipped on the 18th. It is going to Tampa, FL, USA. It is now Oct. 4th and I have not received it yet. Can someone please advise. Thanks.

[gshockdan]

Mine was ordered on a Tuesday and shipped the Thursday and I didn't get it until the following Thursday.

Mine was ordered from the same place, came out of Markham Ontario, I am 1.5 hours east of there.  Came standard Canada Post and in a small shipping envelope.

Relax, it should be there in a short time.  IF they ship everything out of the same place, might have got held up at customs.  

I have learned over the years, if you want it NOW, go out and find it.  If not order it online! haha

I Still have a PSKey or whatever it is coming from Hong Kong.  I don't expect that until November! lol.
