Oh thanks for topic.

In the guide, when it says;

Turn the ps3 back off insert your dev usb board (programmed with the correct files) into the right usb slot.

I have a E3 Card Reader, do i need to put files in it ?
In your E3 Flasher Program files i have Get in FSM and Get Out FSM.
Do i have to put the files that are in Get In FSM into the E3 Card Reader which are lv2diag.self and PS3UPDAT.PUP ?

glad we agree @playerkp420


yup using the "original Progskeet patches+E3 dump" is more unneeded steps cuse they have made E3 patches for us to use instead..so everyone happy and not wasting more time as needed

edit: to make the post complete

or use Rogero's patcher like Playerkp420 suggested with E3 Flasher instead of Flowrebuilder+E3 Progskeet patches, there u save another step If using the PATCHED 355COREOS way instead of Original E3_downgrade.bin way..for that it isn't faster...takes arround 8 minutes for both ways

yea thats the one downside bdvd's need to work. but then you carnt update without a working bdvd to 3.55+ofw so i added the re-mary files to help ppl fix this as easly as possible (unless i come round and do it for them lol)

the wiki also had a quick tut on how to remove the hash by dumping your flash changing some lines in hxd > re-flashing > booting the console > re-dumping > change more lines in hxd > re- flashing etc
this was once the best way to "de-hash"

there is also talk that the QA-flag way doesnt actually de-hash but thats for another thread lol

On this step I use PS3 Break V 1.1 and I program it and use it, after that I use PS3UPDAT.PUP with Lv2diag.self and later another Lv2diag.self to go out from FSM.

I have seen people say that. Which it doesn't actually de-hash the syscon checks until you install OFW 3.55 or lower.
It is just masking them. But once the ofw is installed it is dehashed, otherwise you would not be able to toggle Qa flag off without bricking the console.

I see people dont appreciate help.

[haz367]

lol....those guys ....i think they like adding confusion to all of it..instead of coming on board and helping people.

the only differents i see here is when using the toggle instead of FSM 2x OFW355 way it added something to EEPROM? by that toggle_qa app as of the 2xOFW355 don't though that at all...but both should dehash the PS3 the same after having installed 2xOFW355 so both ROS0/1 on NOR contains "Clean" OFW355 files one can run the reset qatoggle to remove this correct so it looks like new for the outside?!

all in all i wish i had ur skillz man..all the pro soldering...the thing is my patients isn't enough..then again it wasn't bad as Mushy told me..still like to do one myself but need some more pratice and good kynar wire, that was my main problem tho...the smaller the better..still have some Teensy's for another rainy day










anyways
nog even......dan ist kerst

Ok, i will refomulate my question.

I really don't undetstand the Finishing the down grade in service mode Part.

So i need my E3 Card Reader Programmed ? How do i do that ?

After triggering Factory Service Mode, go to the folder called “service mode files” & in there is a folder called “service mode 3.55 downgrade files” put the contents of that folder into your usb stick and plug it in the PS3's right most USB port (remove the dev usb & put your usb memory stick in its place)
(the files are rogero cfw v3.2 and the normal Lv2diag.self (365.5 KB) 3.55 get in FSM )

After triggering in service mode which i supose is done with the programmed dev board from previous step, i have to go in the folder service mode files, where is that folder ? the only folder i have on my E3 Flasher Program is the folders get in fsm and get out of fsm
