Hello, Im new to the ps3 mod scene and only started looking up after I updated my system. Now, that I have 4.11 I havent found any information on how I can "jailbreak" my ps3. I did see information about flashing it by modding it and adding something to the system. Id like to avoid that at all costs. Any information would be great thank you.

No you cannot.
If your ps3 was ever on 3.55 then you can use an internal hardware flasher to downgrade.

yes, I believe so. I've had my system before 2009. How should I start?

[carldenning]

1st thing is to research and find out if your ps3 is a nand or nor
