Got an E3 flasher (real one, after buying fake one), with a DYN-001 Samsung. Tried everything but the damn clip wouldn't work- except ONCE. Then afterwords I couldn't use most recent upgrade because it insisted it wasn't the same PS3, or it gave me clip error. Flashed in Samsung update, but still got clip error. Hardwired the thing- Flowrebuilder gave me an error, removed wires resoldered, checked to make sure they weren't grounded out or exposed wire- still corrupt NOR dump.
I used this wiring diagram http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/File:...-dual-boot.jpg
and this http://www.ps3devwiki.com/wiki/Hardw...ads_to_flasher
Except I couldn't find anywhere where there is "BYTE" to solder the "BVCC" from the E3 linker- from what I gathered from different forums, it was to be soldered to the "VCC".
What am I doing wrong? Does the "BVCC" not go to "VCC"? Has anybody else hardwired a E3 link to a DYN-001 board successfully?
I find it odd that I managed to get ONE good NOR dump with the clip, but not link board- it tells me the flasher works at least. But I can't depend on the clip, it only worked once out of God knows how many times- that's why I hardwired. And why does my flasher insist it's another PS3 BIOS with the most recent upgrade? Even if I manage to fix my NOR dump problem- I won't be able to do "one-switch downgrade" as I'm forced to use the "Samsung" upgrade.

I personally have no idea, but hopefully @playerkp420 will see this and can help you out, he is a wizz with E3 flashers.

The clip is a nightmare.

@hellsing9

thanks for the edit


@michardav

E3 LINKER>>>>>>>>>>>>PS3 SOLDER POINTS

GND >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> GROUND
BVCC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> VCC (+ voltage going to the ps3's NOR)
SBCE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>POINT (A) (USED IN DUAL BOOT ONLY)
VCC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>VCC (USE SAME POINT AS BVCC)
SBE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>TRISTATE (DUAL BOOT ONLY)
NWAIT>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>RDY (RY/BY)
NWE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>WE
RESET>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>RESET
CE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>CE
NOE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>OE

all the rest are the same ie A1>>A1 / D1>>D1

also when using the clip on the DYN-001 board then you need to file some of the clip as there are components to close to the NOR for the clip to sit flush

Hey man, I think you may have miss typed one part. The sbe goes to the nor tristate and sbce goes to point a on the cut diod.

thanks
and yea i think they either:

1. post on a lot of websites in a blind panic and then never check for responses

or

2. fix the problem but carn't be bothered posting back to tell us


mind you it could be :

3 get stuck looking at your avitar's and forget what they were doing :P

@michardav Please report back.

Did the file, had a spare one since I bought the POS fake one. Tried the dime. Got it to work ONCE.
It's why I hardwired the sucker. I cut the A->B point to do dual boot, but now I must use Samsung firmware because it says it's a different PS3 BIOS (it's not BTW); but I don't think that would give me bad NOR dumps.
I soldered all the points listed to where they're supposed to go and even used continuity tester to unsure they weren't crossed or grounded (the ones that weren't SUPPOSED to be that is).
