DualBoot CFW 3.55 + OFW 4.11

Hey!

I was thinking about buying a second PS3 for Playing Online, it is getting Bored to play just Offline... i have a PS3 Slim CHECH25xxB, its allmost new only 3 Months old.

So i found out you can use Flasher to make a DualBoot with CFW&OFW, i read alot but you find so many people say this the other say that, so i trust the common PS3hax Member and would like to ask:

Which Flasher would you recommend? E3 Limited Edition looks nice to me but i find some people complaining about it wouldnt work ect...

Would you go on a new Device wjho has Warranty, or should i wait for the warranty to be over, so far i just can play Offline for another 9 Months...

Someone has done something like this? Is it worth it? As i read it needs alot of time, i am in the ComputerIndustrie and know how Computers and Game Consoles work but i am no soldering Profi.

So i am unsure what to do, i would like to Play Online and i would love to keep CFW, seems the best Deal to me. In the Tutorials its says you need a Dongle for Flasher CFW but i dont get it why, can someone Explain this to me?

What I did was I purchased a second hand PS3 for $150 and used an E3 flasher.

Downgraded from 4.00 to 3.55 with ease, and without having to solder. I think that should be your ideal approach.

Its been done, so it is possible. You will need E3 Flasher and 2 HDD for your ps3.

I really don't get what you are asking?

But instead of bumping a 4 month old thread, to ask your question. You should start your own thread. With more details about your question.
