You should take out your e3 flasher mainboard (The one the resistor is on/ the biggest board). Check if there is any numbers on the back of the flasher board, if the numbers is 1312 you will be screwed, there is no known way to get this working.
Everything my seller said to me was this: "I have downgraded multiple ps3's with this type of flasher". He didn't even care to say what he did to make the "Fake" flasher works, some guy said you had to shave something of the clip, but he didn't say anymore :/
Also, you should try something higher than coins, try to cut some pieces of a t-shirt or something and fold it over and over until it's high enough to that the motherboard is pressing down constantly on the piece.
That's what I did, but no sucsess :/ I really hope you got the real version, damn clones, e3 team told us "E3 clones has appeared on the marker".
I bought it 2 weeks maybe 3 weeks before any news about clones, it's kind of boring.

Good luck!
Thanks for the info, its not a clone. Ive checked E3 website about clones. Mine is an original. Will try the stacking and see if that works
