I don't know about the rest of you, but I am very disappointed in the latest firmware update. I mean, its cool that you can change your profile color and everything, but this new firmware seems to be so glitchy and its really starting to bug me. As soon as it came out, tons of threads about trophy problems have been popping up everywhere. I am sure this is from this firmware since it also started happening to me right when i downloaded it. Many other problems have been centered around 3.10 also.

So, now that I have shared my views on the subject, what do all of you guys think about the latest update? Do you like it? Do you wish you could go to an older firmware? What do you think?

I may be able to help with your controller. Have you tried the reset button on the back?... Turn everything off, then turn just the system on and not the controller. Now, hit the reset button with a paper clip. Once the ps3 is up and running, plug your usb cable into the controller without turning the controller on. Once its plugged in, turn the controller on. You should now be able to unplug your controller and have it synced.

3.10 Prevented the DS3 from Syncing with my Slim. This fixed the problem and hasn't show up since: (can't remember if the usb was plugged in or not...) 1. Turn on your PS3 system using the power button on the PS3 console, NOT on the controller. 2. When the PS3 turns on and the PS3 logo shows up on the screen, hit the PS button on the controller. The controller will sync with no problem. Other than that - Facebook... meh. Color Choice for whatever - Nice touch but small selection and kinda weak.

I had both of these problems. I finally got my trophies to sync when I was gaming late a night (low traffic probably). As for the controller issue I had it yesterday for all my controllers. I just shut off my ps3 using the button on the front, then turned it on by pressing the PS button on my controller. After that all my controllers worked wirelessly again.

I honestly can't understand why people make so much of a fuss outta this trophy thing, I really wish none of these "achievement" faetures were even conceived. Yes it's an issue and it should be addressed, but not to the point where people are literally desperate for help and/or make it priority number one, it's not like the console's damaged. Whatever happened to playing video games for fun?

Meh. I haven't had any problems but the update hasn't really done much for me at all.

The Trophy colors were already in 3.01... but the controller synching issues I keep hearing and reading about from fellow users is having me want to keep away from it for a while. But annoyingly, I fear that I may be forced into updating just to access the PS store (just like I was with 3.01). Has Sony made 3.10 a required updated to access the PS Store?

facebook "integration" is kinda cool and kinda **** and pointless at the same time. has anyone tried using facebook on the PS3 browser...does not work!!! you would think that they could chage the borwser settings so you could at least leave a comment etc...

I like the way photos now have a grid display instead of the the single column they had before. Other than that, I don't care about any of the new stuff. Haven't had any problems.

i realized that for some odd reason the controllers won't get recognized by the ps3 if you shut down the system by pressing the power button on the ps3 (i have a slim one along with the 3.10 update)... the remedy of this is quite simple, you do not have to reset the controllers, just turn the ps3 off and unplug the electricity cable (since the slim does not have an off switch at the back) and then plug it back in (i wait for 10 seconds to be sure)... after this all of your controllers work again wirelessly, strange but this is what i found out by trial and error... :)

Meh, im not even gonna bother downloading it, its of no use to me anyway, 3.00 knocked out my connection. I dont need any more problems and it seems a pretty useless update to me anyway.

I thought it was just me! I hope Sony fixes that problem with the next release.
