Upgrading hard drive on a downgraded ps3

PS3 Slim DYN was downgraded to 3.55.
Then upgraded to rogero Rogero_CEX_4.30_v2.05_PS3UPDAT.PUP via the SYSTEM update menu option on the xmb
toggled the QA flag off.

Then I put in a 1Tb hdd to upgrade his ps3.

It said no system files found please insert on a flash stick, start and select together etc.


So i put the same Rogero_CEX_4.30_v2.05_PS3UPDAT.PUP file on USB and did update. Console boots up and give a dark blue screen now!!

Any ideas on where to go from here? I have valid dump from 4.30 pre downgrading and I also took another dump after the downgrade to 3.55.

What is the right move from here?

Thanks in advance guys!

This might be a dumb statement if I read your post wrong why don't you just down grade back to 3.55 OFW then put in the new HDD????

Hey everyone,

So this ps3 got fixed by flashing the downgrade patched file onto the ps3 witht the bigger hdd attched. That got it to the screen where it says please connect contoller. Followed the rest of playerkp420s guide and I was good to go.

@BwE . - thanks

@3absiso - that other thread is for a different ps3. Still no luck with that one
