Hi, thanks for all the information.

I have a weird problem that I'd like to discuss, may be there is someone who can help me hopefully.
I have PHAT 80GB PS3 which started to act weird some days ago. I couldn't save anything on HDD, no game save, no nothing. When I tried to save a game data on HDD, I got an Error message (which I don't remember because I didn't write it down.)
I thought maybe I could install 3.55 CFW again and it would solve the problem, so I hooked up my USB flash with 3.55 CFW inside. I started the update process like I did many times before, but this time at the end when the system restarted, I got RSOD !
I tried everything you can imagine, Recovery mode, Factory Service mode but with no success. After every try and installing 3.41 modified firmware (which shows 3.56) when the system restarts it goes straight to RSOD.
Then I found this page with the instructions to install 355-NOTHEROS-RSOD.PUP but the problem is because I've used that modified 3.41 before PS3 won't let me install 355-NOTHEROS-RSOD.PUP though Recovery and asks me to put 3.56 FW in USB Flash!
Now what should I do to be able to install 355-NOTHEROS-RSOD.PUP on my PS3?
I tried using Factory service mode and put 355-NOTHEROS-RSOD.PUP instead of the modified 3.41 but it doesn't work.
If someone could help me it would be very appreciated.
Thanks

I want to thank all the devs and Ps3 community and the people in the Wiki for actually fixing something that sony should have done in the first place, and not making the customer ship and pay for a tech support like sony did. This is a truly amazing day for many people around the world that bought a sony product, a CHECHL PS3 console and had this nasty RSOD problem, making many customers upset all around the world left with a brick in the closet, just like me. thanks 1 trillion times

I think the same.

thank U to all people that give us a great day, thank you very much!!
