Did you do a firmware update recently? If so, that will disable firmware-based functionality.

You need hardware-based functionality as normal firmware updates will not disable this type of functionality.

For example, machines that have ICOS multi-region modifications from Multi-region Magic, meet this criteria.

This seems interesting but how would you update the mod with protection from firmware?
I don't understand your question, but if you're asking if you will be able to update firmware with new Sony firmware normally via file download or network, the answer is yes.

ICOS hardware-based modifications are a completely separate module from firmware module and there's nothing to update with ICOS module.

You can also verify this by contacting Multi-Region Magic, if you like.
