So you have to flash everytime you want to swap firmware ? Thats lame.
They dont flash when they swap hdds in their video showing the swapping method !

here we go to the dual boot, it is just a Semi Dual Boot and not the original Dual Boot of the E3 Team with the OFW<->CFW switch (PS3 NOR<->E3 NOR)!!

read this a second or third time

Hi,I have successful dump my Nor flash but I can`t restore it.I checked my dump with Nor Checker and do not show me any errors.I have no idea what I doing wrong but I'm starting to be angry because I spent a lot of money and I can`t do nothing

still have the same problem....... when i put in my psjailbreak2 dongle and power up the ps3, i press on and then quickly eject, it beeps 3 times but i just get the "plug in controller" screen........have tried org psjailbreak 2 firmware and one psgrade ( only one that worked) and a psgroove hex... none seems to get past the servicemode point.........

be carefully what Backup you want to flash...

for explain:

backup of a normal original firmware doesn't WORK

backup of a CFW 3.55 with the no check patch WORKS

backup of a original firmware updated from the CFW 3.55 with the no check patch WORKS


and for the semi dual boot you must patch the backup of your CFW 3.55 as in the tut explain!


who have flash a normal backup without the no check patch use the backup and patch it to make a downgrade bin named as bkpps3.bin!


I hope this will bring light in the problem!!!!


@xoda

read the tut carefully, when you use your downgrade dongle and the ps3 beeps 3 time you must put the lv2diag and the PS3UPDAT.PUP to a USB Stick and so on...!

I know but My ps3 dont turn it self off after i put i put the dongle in and press power and eject. Thats my problem. Can i just skip the rest, reflash my org bios. Put back my hdd and reinstall 4.00 to get back to the beginning ?

starting to get tired of the dongle/flasher story now..... especially the dongle!!!!!!!!!!!

Great tutorial but I have one problem with Multiman after downgroading.I don't know why but Multiman can`t see BD-EMU.I have install everything correct but Multiman show me this message:

Multiman Cannot enable BD-ROM emulator. Functionality may be restricted...

[TDCroPower2]

have you install the BDEMU2.pkg ??? you must first install the BDEMU2.pkg and then install the multiMAN!
