hi forum

i am gonna have my "new" Fat downgradede via e3 flasher, but dont know which firmware to put on it after?

Rebug 3.55.2 or something else?
gonna run the firmware, until i get my hands on a true blue dongle.

and could someone please explain to me, when using the true blue, i know you have to install the firmware that goes with it, but when removing the dongle, will the ps3 still run the TB firmware? or does it run the original installed CFW such as rebug?

so really the question is, if i installed the TB and removed the dongle, would i be able to use my backup managers, on my 3.55 backups?

im unsure if it would, my understanding is if you install the true blue firmware and remove the dongle it'll be just ofw 3.55 so the back ups wouldn't work. though rebug has a cfw with true blue integrated so if you installed that to use the dongle it would most likely be rebug cfw once you remove it, so everything should work lol

yes that is also my understanding of how it would work, but when downgrading I just wondered which CFW to install at first? have read the thread about QA-flag and reFSM, and wondered if the guy that does the downgrading installs a regular CFW will I still be able to do these methods after?

hey mate never ever try the refsm way to install any other cfw , it will brick ur ps3 like mine.
i also did the refsm way and tried to install rebug cfw 3.55tb2 and bricked my ps3 and still i am not able to recover from brick

isn't that because you didn't QA toggle in fsm before installing rebug in fsm?
