I was using the E3 Flasher and when the restore process finished, I was at the black screen and it said i need use 4.30 or later for my OS. So i downloaded MiralaTijera_CFW_4.31_PS3UPDAT.PUP and it gives me "The data is corrupted (8002f157)" I tried using OFW and it gave me the same error.

What do I do now? I tried swapping hdd's and formatting still same error.

You need 3.55 to run a CFW so you need to do this again maybe.

Following more than one guide is a good way to brick your PS3.

Follow the guide below. If you don't have a downgrade dongle, when you get to Chapter 2, follow METHOD 1.

Read everything carefully, so you understand what you are doing.

Look like its going to work now. I patched the dump file and set all the switches down and pressed start and waited till it was done (All was stated in your guide) and its installing now.

Funny thing is though, he is trying to do it without a FSM dongle. The guide on the wiki does not tell you how to do that.

Reinstall the firmware from the recovery menu.
