no need to format the ps3 buddy,it wont effect the hdd.n dont suggest him to use the e3 crap flasher for now since many console had brick

no idea how long it takes dont think it takes much and just backup all your movies etc from HDD anyways no use of CFW stuff after you update

well my wee bro just delted all his homebrew and games from his hdd and updated to ofw 3.72 and nothing happened to him, only down side is if you dont delte everything before you update youll have to format to get space back as theres no other way to delte games from the harddrive.

[abhi98228]

i just wish someone makes a Soft dual boot 3.55 and 3.73 so that we can play online as well as downloaded games :D i dont wanna mess up with E3 flasher

so first delete all cfw apps and games then go to recovery mode and update 2 ofw 3.55 without having to format is that it ?? =) tnx for the answer in advance
