So I'm selling my xbox 360 and buying a ps3. From what I understand, I should look for 3.55 as this is the favourite and most used.
I've downloaded the PS3 E3 4.30 CFW and Manager which contains 1 x .pup file and 1 x .pkg file. Now I've read through itskamel's NOOB JAILBREAK GUIDE here: http://www.ps3hax.net/showthread.php?t=26677 but I'm a little confused at how to proceed so go easy on me guys! I'm a total NOOB. What exactly should I do next with the above files?? |

welcome to the forum
@DeZombieKilla
 you don't happen to be dutch do you? anyway, you don't own a ps3 yet right? , you better look for a version that is hackable and you probably need a hardware flasher aswell.

Dutch?? No, why do you ask?
That's right, I don't have a ps3 today but will have one within the next few days. I know I need to get one that's hackable but that's about all I know right now. Like I said, I downloaded the PS3 E3 4.30 CFW and Manager but I'm confused about the next step! Help me out guys, we all have to start somewhere, right? |

the PS3 E3 4.30 CFW and Manager is no use to you right now, first you need to downgrade to 3.55 but you need a hardware flasher to do that or look if there's a service close to you that will do it for you...
EDIT: if i'm correct then you need to look for a model CECH-251.B or below Last edited by Mr.Dutch; 10-29-2012 at 10:35 AM. |

I don't need to downgrade. I'm buying a 3.55 ps3 over the next couple of days.
There's a couple of ps3's for sale with 3.55 firmware and MPN:CECH-2003A and MPN:CECH-G03 Is this good? Last edited by DeZombieKilla; 10-29-2012 at 10:52 AM. |

Make sure with the seller that you are buying from if its 3.55 firmware or what firmware its on, and has it been downgraded before, this is a very important question because if it has been downgraded rehashing is required before updating.

OFW 3.55 ? Then you just need to update from the recovery menu via usb pretty basic stuff. But again keep a hardware flasher handy
