I have problem with downgrading 4.25. console is 2504B datecode 0C
in first i try downgrade with normal E3 method(1,2,3,4,5 down 6up) but then console brick, so i solder tristate and flash fun original bios and console power on, then patch with FlowRebuilder but black screen again.
any idea?

Just for my own sanity, I have the old 60 gig Fat PS3 (CECHA01). The banner says the firmware that's downgradable is 4.20, there fore if you were silly enough to upgrade (like my dumb ass) to 4.25, you cannot downgrade to CFW 3.55?

Or if you can downgrade, you need the e3 flasher? I just want it to be clarified because, some of the threads on the forum are a bit confusing, as some say you can't and some say you can.

any idea?
did you use minver checker to see if you could downgrade to 3.55 first before you did anything else?

if you didnt then did you atleast verify your dump (not by using e3's checker as that doesnt actually check anything it should)

can you upload your origional dump to get checked?

quote me so i know you have replied pls

you can downgrade from 4.25
as you have a "phat" ps3 your console can downgrade to 3.55

go to my guide to see what is needed to downgrade
