We apologize for the inconvenience.

           Never mind, 4.45 got pulled. If your console was affected please use the PlayStation Support Forums, as solutions might come faster from there.

Note: PS3 Update 4.45 is live, some users are currently experiencing some issues with it. Hold off if you are not sure.

 

US PlayStation Suport Forums Here

 

OP

This is just a heads up to a future PS3 update. If i get any info as to when it goes live before anyone here, i will adjust the title and bump the thread to signal that 4.45 is live...

Main Features Revised in System Software Version 4.45

 

You can now select whether to show a notification when you earn a trophy while playing a game. You can adjust

the setting under [settings] > [system Setting] > [Trophy Notifications].

 

For detailed information including limitations of usage, visit the SCE Web site for your region.

 

I for one enjoy hearing the "ding" when i obtain a trophy; but hey, i'm not everyone and i'm sure this update will be useful for some.

 

Doesn't it do that already ?

For messages and friend requests, yes.

I'm already having problems with the update.

 

All I'm getting is my blue background & nothing else :shakefist:

 

I pull my core to see it would work,but it's still the same blue background.

I just read someone on another site saying the update locked up their system. Definitely going to wait on updating myself. Is there an option to turn trophy notifications up super loud, this is what I need :)

Hmm if its done right, could be a nice advancement...... kinda like a page that shows all the new info/trophies achieved by my friends or whats going on recently with everyone, like the "recent status updates"  in forums Home.

So far, can anyone confirm if it currently is safe to download? I can hold off the update if it means I can avoid any problems with my PS3.

 

 

It is for the best to not update since I was surfing other forums to confirm that other users are being affected. I updated and nothing happened so I suggest being safe than sorry.
