hello,

some person bricked his 40 gb ps3 and after bring it to me.I have use it progskeet trying to get a clean dump form nand ,but was it not,flowrebuilder keep announce me about some errors ,when trying to unscramble.so i have used a donor nand from the very same kind of mobo.Flashing went fine no errors or issues.Now when i power up that ps3 nothing changed,same solid green light,no recovery menu,no a/v signal.but the most bad is now power on usb ports.

From my experience with other nand's ps3 i observed,each time when downgrade went fine,after reassembling all togheter,ps3 power on normally,after a while it get off ,with no beeps if everything is ok.This one,despite the fact flash went ok,is stayng in that green light forever.

Ps3 was sealed and i'm sure ports were working before that brick happend.So i need to put this in fsm ,but with no power on usb ports it is impossible.Knows anybody a method to unblock this ports in some other way?
thanx.

i dont know much about flashing .but what i do know if u flashed that doner nand dumb onto the other nand and it fully flashed then u can say goodbye to that ps3 .
u cant u other nand dumb on diffent ps3, because of the perconsole info and u said u never got a good dump from the 1st ps3.

well r.i.p ps3 if u did flash that doner dumb.

just wait for some other people to confirm or not what i just said
************* [ - Post Merged - ] *************
o yeah if people are coming to u to downgrade there ps3 etc , give it up as u don't know what your doing to sort out other peoples ps3 .

what you can try is an external powered usb hub...
is there any hdd activity?

[salomon890]

well,hdd did not work properly.i can hear the hdd starting,you know that usual sound of spining,but no lights either on hdd led.it is same as before falshing.This could be a sign to a half dead rsx,maybe.

Bios flash from the other consoles will not work because every ps3 has a special bios flash for this console.

If you flashed a dump from a different PS3, that one is toast.

that's what i thought

[salomon890]

it was bricked anyway.i still got the dump from this ps3,so i can flashed back any time.Problem is it was already bricked when this customer bring it to me,so i extracted dump form one already bricked ps3.
playerkp420 i did this in the past with succes.flashed with donor nand ,wasn't worked,so used again original dump,which was ok ,ps3 worked normal,so is not toasted.
I experienced this so if you have original nand dumps and use a skeet should be no issue if you flash back the nands.I'm not sure with the nor ,but with nand worked just fine.
