[Sarah1331]

With the 1.0,1.1 they come with retail bitstream and need flashing to read solderless NAND clip
if you buy my adaptor board you don't have to flash it tho so you can


solder your NAND on and read it with retail bitstream
Or
Use a NAND clip on retail bitstream

So my adaptor cuts the need for injectus and progskeet adaptor board 1.0,1.1
If you get a 1.2 you need to flash it I think (ask if it comes with bitstream) if it does you don't need injectus

But again for NAND clip you will still need adaptor board mine or progskeet

@baileyscream A little advice here fella. I'm expecting my e3 clip through the door today as my soldering skills aren't up to scratch just yet. I have 2 slim consoles both identical model numbers one cfw one ofw now i never wanted to put cfw on my ofw and vice versa, now I need to downgrade one of these as I'm unwilling to downgrade any of my pals consoles until I have successfully downgraded one of my own. Which leads me to my question. Which console is gonna be less hassle to downgrade? Many thanks in advance for your advice.

remove that link please and just to confirm that is a bad dump flow rebuilder won't extract it without errors What guide did you follow?

At this point though, I accidentally unplugged the ps3 while moving it and now when I boot up I'm not getting any video. The data light comes on briefly but then nothing else. The system doesn't shut down or really do anything. Am I bricked at this point? I do have three original dumps that I verified using your guide. I am using the E3 Linker and have checked all of my solder points. Thanks again for this guide and all the hard work all of you guys put into this forum.

erm
thats a new one!
what .pkg was being installed?
game ones wont affect the o/s
the rest i suppose may depend on the .pkg
does the controller connect either with bluetooth or via usb lead?
can you check the hdd is in propperly (you say you have E3 flasher. is this installed? it may be loose in the hdd's sata port or the hdd dock may just need turning off then back on.

so many possibilities. i need much more info from you.

dont flash anything as it may make matters worse if the E3 is still attached (there may still be a faulty connection. so dont jump the gun)

thanks.
i need to do a full stripdown guide for that model as the ffc's going to the bdvd drive are different aswell.

You mean broken dump right ? Damp ?

And both the dumps are not valid.

Did you flash your ps3 with this dump ?

Which guide did you follow ?

[denis-str]

Hi all I'm from Russia, there is the problem of the BRIC PS3 FAT 80 GB CECHK08 dumps with errors can anyone fix it? a huge thank you to all who help in the decision of the problems. ps wrote through the online translator)))

if you buy from
http://www.siliteo.fr/
this is what you get



. the progskeet 1.2
. the progskeet usb adaptor
. the injectus
. the "Y" adaptor board (for dual nand)
. a 50pin ffc for progskeet to "Y" adaptor
. ffc cable for progskeet to usb adaptor / injectus
. 2x ffc cables for "Y" adaptor to NAND clip (not included) or the mentioned qsb maybe? (also not included)

the progskeet 1.2 you get just the progskeet board
you need
injectus (to program the bitstreem for NAND)
"Y" adaptor
NAND clip

get @Sarah1331 's board and you dont need the injectus or the "Y" adaptor
as it makes the prog "plug and play" no swapping bitstreems (or forgetting to like i have a few annoying times) when you swap from NOR flashing to NAND flashing

*******************edit***************************
after reading some poorly translated french (thats me trying to translate)
the items
. the injectus
. the "Y" adaptor board (for dual nand)
may not actually come with the prog 1.2
mine was sent to the wrong address by mistake and these could have been added as an appology from the above site.

@Sarah1331 did you get yours from the same site?
if you did did you get these items as part of it?

Thanks for the response. The packages that were installed were show time and another random emulator. I don't think that affected it since it stayed on sometime after that. It was only after it was reset that it started doing this.

I've checked the hdd and it is seated in the esata station correctly. When booting on the data light on both the ps3 and station does flash briefly but only for a few seconds.

The controller does not connect to Bluetooth an just flashes when plugged into the USB.

I've checked all the solder points on the e3 linker and they appear to be strong. I have just recently sent my original dumps to the checking thread and they came as valid if I need to go down that road. Thanks again and let me know if I can provide any more information.
