Hi everyone

I have trouble with a 40GB FAT playstation in the process of downgrade! I am using the dongle ps3usbjailbreak as and when I press the power button and then the console will not eject and falls off the screen Connect the controller using a USB cable, and then press the PS button!
************* [ - Post Merged - ] *************
The problem is that I pressed the PS button and now the control does not synchronize with the console! I wonder if the console is brinckd if I have to solder something to restore the backup?

what do you mean by $50? $50.00 for E3 Flasher?

seems $50.00 is hard to reach, now the best price I've seen for E3 Flasher is $79.99+FP at http://www.dealsteady.com/_p5588.html....

Hm, i've decided to give wiring a shot. Unfortunately i've got no wires. I actually wanted to buy some, but then i realized that i have no idea which wires i should use in these cases 0_o...

Is there any difference to what kind of wires i use for soldering PS3 to E3 flasher?

Had the same problem with bios write errors and such. But it worked for me when i did the refit process of the clip. And make sure your backup is named correctly. Cuz with the new 3times backup update you have to rename the backup. And they dont mention that either.
It ends with 0,1,2 or something like that but just remove the last number.
Has anyone tried my method i posted in PRO.hacks guide ? (must have working backup)
I restored it from blackscreen and i also got some loop telling me to reinstall system software. Managed to unbrick my slim this way try and then send me a pm of your progress. And also if you want more info of how i did and what problems i hade with errors and such

So let me get this straight: You need 3 HDDs

one with 3.73 OFW, a dummy, 3.55 CFW

Say i am on 3.55 CFW, i plug in my dummy drive which is also on 3.55 CFW, update, take that dummy drive out and plug in 3.73 OFW?

How do i go back?

Enter your 3.73 dummy HDD, do the hole downgrade process again, insert 3.55 HDD.

alright. hey i also figured out what u did wrong with the PSPJig thing. It doesnt work properly when on 6.xx CFW and should be put on 5.xx CFW. Run the homebrew first, and then plug in to ps3.
