yes friend... fat with power button.



3 dongles right now. E3 CARD, PS3key and PSbreak.... none of them works.

Have u tried skipping that step. Maybe you are already in FSM. Try putting the files from the step 1 folder on a flash drive and insert into the right port. Then turn on ps3. If its gonna work your ps3 will shut off in about 4 min.

Don't forget to use a no check firmware and rename the pup.

So, you only have your original backup? Do you have one from after you downgraded to 3.55? If you did you could just flash fun the 3.55 backup.

Yes installing kmeaw is what bricked it.

But you should be able to unbrick with this method
. With your 3.66 backup.
