New important information regarding NAND flash dump! Please read!
I have done the
NAND dump by these 3 methods:
1) Using "Linux terminal" (CEX2DEX says its NOT VALID)
2) Using "memdump v0.01"
3) Using "mmCM" in Debug Mode
All of these dumps are
239MB , they have missing data on them, they should be
256MB !
The final method to obtain the
NAND flash dump was:
4) Using "Jaicrab Preloader Advance v3.1"
This dump is
256MB (as it should be!) and the "
metldr" obtained from it is exactly as the "
metldr" obtained from my previous flash dumps (except the Linux dump, that one is not good).
To use
"Jaicrab Preloader Advance v3.1" the PS3 should be in
"Factory Service Mode" (not to be confused with PS3 Recovery Mode).
Usually the only method to put your PS3 on FSM was using a dongle, BUT!, there is this nice application called
"Factory Service Mode Tool v2" here:
http://www.ps3hax.net/2012/02/releas...ode-tool-v0-2/
That will make things easier, I just installed the proper PKG file and launched the application on my PS3 and voila! I was on Factory Service Mode
.
I will explain all this in my upcoming NAND guide, and I will provide an All-In-One package with everything you will need to go from CEX-to-DEX.
More information soon! xD Im almost at the point of no return! LOL lets hope I dont brick!! haha!
EDIT: Used "Jaicrab Preloader Advance v3.1" to restore the final DEX NAND flash, here are the results:
