Cobra USB 4.31 CFW Flash

Does this mod exist? I just paid $100 for this service got home turned on my ps3, first thing i checked was the system info and it still said i was on version 4.31. Could not find Install Package Folder or any apps_games folder in the XMB anywhere! I have searched the forums and tried various methods of puting the .pkg files on my usb and nothing shows up.

You paid $100 for the service? Did you get a Cobra dongle with it?
Because I think Cobra CFW acts like OFW, if you don't have the dongle in.

I brought my ps3 to this guy in my area and he asked me what firmware i was running and i said OFW 4.31 and he said that he could do the "usb cobra flash" which i have never heard of to run CFW 4.31 he was originally asking $120 which i thought was pretty ridiculous and when i got my ps3 back after 1 hour he did not include the usb cobra dongle. He had me under the assumption he was flashing my ps3 with it??? when i started questioning him about where is the install package folder and if he could point me in the right direction he said "i dont know i only do the mods dont provide tutorials, it can be seen as circumventing."

Well, lets hope he assumed you had a Cobra dongle and installed that CFW.

Did he install any apps? mmCM maybe?

Try and enter the recovery menu and choose option 6. Install 4.25 to 3.55 downgrader PUP. http://www.mediafire.com/?6d8f6fi0hoiy86j
If that does not install, and gives an error or says No Applicable Data. Then you got robbed.

If that does install, I will give you more links to get you to the latest Rogero.

After reading that link, I think you have been scammed.

forgive me forum for i love you and respect you. but take your ps3 to that guys house. take a cpl friends. use it to smash his teeth out of his gums. then cup his mouth plug his nose and make him swallow them. take your money plus the cost of your ps3. then take his computers and any hardware and game systems for lying to you. and tell him if you see him again it will be the last time. watch him pee himself and smile. go home. (joking!!! lol)

actually im only half kidding id be right pissed off and im not small or weak. that said go get your money, preferably without getting arrested. was he a kid? like teenager? sounds stupid but im 27 so if so go tell his father he stole your damn money and get it back. if hes an adult.... ugh i HATE to say this crap but if you have txts or emails. call the cops. they will charge him. blah blah. i dont like the cops tho...
