When using any kind of custom firmware, having access to the PSN is at least a part necessity. One way to cure that itch is by using PSNPatch. It disables custom firmware syscalls and spoofs your console IDs so that you reduce your risk of getting banned from the PSN. For those with Cobra custom firmware, this build includes a brand new stealth plugin that keeps those important CFW files hidden on system boot. You can of course turn them back on through button combination if you need to. When combined with the webMAN plugin, in theory you can boot XMB backups without losing your PSN account to Sony's prying eyes. See more details below!

for 4.XX CFW & COBRA 7.0

• New vsh plug-in to auto boot with cobra 7.0 systems (the "true-STEALTH" experience) (see footnotes);
• Added support for aditional cobra syscalls (these are hard to find, but it is safer to disable them also);
• If cobra is detected the current and spoofed Firmware version are displayed;
• This version brings news for Cobra 7.0 users. Other CFW users DO NOT NEED to update as ALL PREVIOUS PSNPatch VERSIONS are compatible with EVERY 4.XX versions (even 4.53).
