Thanks for sharing and sorry to hear that... Usually, when Sony releases a newer firmware, it is confirmed that is safe to downgrade from. So far, I haven't heard about 4.21 ofw is safe to downgrade. Again, sorry to hear that.

Were the necessary precautions taken beforehand?

You need to be entirely sure that every step taken during the downgrade procedure was done correctly before making incredibly bold statements.

Thread closed.
Reason: We don't have more solid reports (except what Op stated his personal experience) about this. I think it's not time to sound the alarm yet and i doubt sony took any measure against hardware flashers on 4.21 OFW
