Hi,

I've got a slim 120gb model running latest firmware...obviously I need hardware flasher to downgrade and I don't really want to buy it just to do one console...

Does anybody provide a downgrade service on this forum or have e3/teensy/progskeet I could borrow????
 
Not to worry I've bought the E3 Flasher Limited kit so I'll be able to do it myself :)
 
I posted a link in another thread which says you do not need an E3 flasher. Would it possible for you to confirm?
 
It's fake...trust me you need a hardware downgrader to downgrade from the newer firmwares....
 
I'm confused now as there's people saying that they have downgraded and patched etc. ? This is for the latest machines?

I thought (reading the other threads that all can be downgraded, it does say Phat owners wait though)
 
Certain older firmwares can be downgraded with just a dongle, custom firmwares can be downgraded via the xmb, new firmwares need a hardware downgrader... And certain models such as 3000 series slims cannot be downgraded at all at the moment

Hiya, how did you get on pootas ?ive been toying with the idea of buying a progskeet or a e3 flasher, progskeets seemed to go out of stock everywhere when i decided to go for it and its due to a new version coming out, the e3 flasher i nearly bought couple of weeks back aswell but read aout the clip been very easy to break so was un decided, had one in my basket on sites fair few times but then at last minute not bothered lol,which version did you buy mate and where from ? Thanks
 
It's still on its way to me. I've read a few stories about fakes or cheap clips but I just thought it's gotta be worth a try...

I bought the e3 flasher limited from alibaba express, paid on my credit card so I'm protected if it's faulty or fake. It's the solder less kit and hopefully they will release a nand clip soon...

hiya, ok mate thanks, you have to keep us posted how you get on, i nearly bought one again last ngiht lol, but dont know if i be better off with a progskeet , be great if you keep us posted mate, thanks
 
Well I love ke the e3 flasher but I also like progskeet... I guess there's only one way to figure out which is best..... Fiiiiiiight.....

Or just get the progskeet and we can compare lol

hiya, im not too clued up on ps3 scene really and just thought can your ps3 be on any firmware to use e3 flasher or progskeet ? am i correct in thinking as long as your ps3 had 3.55 ofw on at some point it can be downgraded regardless of what ofw you are on now ?
 
Basically any ps3 apart from the 3000 series slims can be downgraded regardless of current firmware installed

hiya, you need a usb dongle aswell dont you for the downgrade process ? i have a minimis dongle sumwhere which i believe can be used cant they ? can guarantee il order one and cfw for latest ofw will come out with no need for 3.55 fw lol, how much did you pay for yours mate ? and you say it was from alibabi website ? i might get one ordered you know,
 
Ye you need a way of getting into factory service mode, I don't have a dongle so I'm using psfmod on my android device...

I paid $121 delivered off alibaba so not too bad....

Thanks for the heads up on this....I had looked into buying one not to long ago.

so what instead of the usb dongle can you do on the android?

so buy your self a progskeet or a e3 flasher and happy days with any machine that is basically not a slim?

They've quickly released an update haven't they....

An update to the PS3 system software was released on 30 October 2012.

Take it in fight back against the new CFW

Rogero_CEX4.30_V1.03

I like this bit....

An issue that freezes the game screen has been observed in some PlayStation 3 format software. This version of the system software addresses this issue.
