Is my PS3 Downgrade-able?

Hi there, I have had my PS3 for about a year now and i never used it after 3.55.

Now after hearing there is a method on how to Downgrade from 4.20 to 3.55, that got me working. So i came here for an explanation.

I have a PS3 Slim, and i have not used it since april. The model number is CECH-2503A and i don't think it's on 4.20, but on a previous version (Something like 4.11)

Could you please let me know if i will require anything other than a USB? e.g : Hardware flasher.

Thanks

Download this, MINVERCHK, to know if your PS3 can downgrade to 3.55.

You will need a hardware flasher like E3 Flasher to get to 3.55.

Click the banner up top labelled PS3 Scene Status for more info.

LOL yeah it will go down to 3.55 fw because your the first one to think of this.


Now giving you a serious answer no only way to downgrade is by using a hardware flasher period. take a look at this list http://www.ps3devwiki.com/index.php?title=SKU_Models if your console model is not downgradeable your screwed for now.
