great..

altough verified many times by other users and because not removed it seems to work great..depends on type BRICK correct? not all bricks are identical and "Sometimes" it requires the dump where u bricked on e.g i had something going on with a previous Rebug 4.21.1, user error but anyway it not booted correctly and only way was restoring the dump i made(with a Teensy but it wont mather on that part!) and trying to use either a ofw dump of that console or a patched 355coreos one didn't work, also note here that the 00's and FF's percentages are way different as OFW/CFW355 dumps! maybe a reason why "only" a working Rebug 4.21.1 dump flashing back restored the PS3 properly

as in other cases one can use for example an patched original made(the first one) dump or ofcourse a patched dump and getting the "connect ps3 controller"

and the guys telling back then it can't work, was maybe a misunderstanding between them that, ofcourse only the "Prohack" dump without having any valid dump of that ps3 isn't gonna work to unbrick...per console stuff..

either way nice work of Prohack with that cust dump...unbricking this sort of brick and u to @noobzega for helping others and refreshing us with the HOWTO using this dump+any valid one

btw.....i'm sure? it isn't recommended to use this way for any other/occasional/normal?

brick type where u have to restore the NAND/NOR correct, only when no USB power/HDD activity? or something

excuse the long post..
