I only went down to 2.10 and that was enough to fix mine....but it is a much newer model.

I do realize this is a fairly old thread, but I have some questions that I don't think were answered in the previous pages.

If you had never played blu-ray movies before downgrading, are you able to re-enable blu-ray playback after downgrading to 3.41? I haven't played blu-ray movies, and haven't backed up any files on the ps3 before I did the downgrade, and now I am on Geohot's 3.55. Still no blu-ray playback though. I can still play games fine though. Btw, I have a fat 60gb console. What can I do to re-enable the blu-ray stuff?

QA flag your console and downgrade to a lower firmware (pre 3.21 or lower if possible). also what is model is you ps3... CECH???

Just to confirm, how would I QA flag it? Would I use the button combo stuff on 3.55?
Yes, it is the CECH model, and I believe that it is the first generation of fat's that were released.

QA flag requires certain firmware and a special .pkg and then a button combo. what CECH.... CECHA, CECHB, etc this is to help determine what firmware is safe to downgrade to. I would downgrade to 2.20 then back to 3.21 then 3.41 or 3.55

Alright, that's what I thought. I'm on 3.55 geohot, so then I should install 3.55 ofw, and do the button combination to go down to 2.20? I can't remember what cech it is, I'll check asap.

no the button combo wont work on 3.55 ofw. you will need to install other os pup. install the qa extra. reboot then do the button combo. then you can downgrade to what ever firmware you want. also you might want to use the pup check version to see if it is safe to go to what firmware you are wanting.

here is the pup to check what version it is safe to down to

more specifically it need to be an OOS++ pup with access to SS services (i would use one of glevand's pups) you can find them at the ps3devwiki.com under the OtherOS++ page

I'm not sure if I'm affected by this?

Bluray movies.
First I tried it on 3.41 hermes 4b dongle. Couldn't copy or playback from Multiman, playback was fine from XMB.

Then I updated to ofw 3.55 and then cfw kmeaw 3.55, installed bdemu2, 2.09 multiman.

I can still playback my bluray movies normally from xmb, but no luck with copying from Multiman.
I starts copying but it reports 0 bytes and takes a long time to do nothing.

Any ideas?

you need to enable write mode to dev_flash3, there is a linux booting app that allows it, forgot the name.

Will try this out next time I remarry a DRIVE
