Do NOT install in Slim consoles! Looks like users are reporting bricking issues. That's weird as the CFW was tested on both models.

I recommend updating first to OFW 3.55, then to CFW 3.55. I'm sorry for all the consoles that have died, this was unexpected :S

@hackinblack Maybe the reason we said not to patch lv2 is because it happens to be DANGEROUS ?

 

[Leeagt]

Think i'll wait just now. Lots of Bricks being reported. I'll update the op

Working in an alternative way, with no brick risk... No ETA.

 

[marra]

reports are saying do not install this over geohots cfw or you will get a brick make sure you goto orig 3.55

 

[marra]

sry to keep replying to my own post but i want to make sure no one misses it,

imo do not use this if you have a 60gb fat launch console, looks like alot of them are turning to bricks.

wrong theres reports it works over ge'so and others have bricked on ofw.

its random there is no cause.

<flukes1> wanin changed the structure of lv2
<flukes1> to make room for a bigger payload
<flukes1> no surprise it randomly bricks, that's asking for trouble

end quote:


he just wrote what he wanted to lv2 so thats why theres a risk of vricking no matter what console.

its the exact reason flukes1 was doing the lv1 thing to be able to do lv2 safely.

you do this its a 50/50 there is no reason or wrong or right console. LV2 is the risk you write to it you risk the brick...

model of ps3 or the way you do it isnt a factor.

It needs to be installed on OFW 3.55 in recovery mode.

most people reporting bricks are either not checking to make sure the checksum is the same or installing it though the XBM.

again wrong, theres loads of bricks from ofw using recovery,

theres also sucess from geo's straight to the new one via recovery AND xmb.


its the patch, the payload in lv2, its either sucess or a brick regardless of console, im on irc channels and on the ps3 websites.


reports are all over the place but there no one cause or console ect.. that its affecting.

 

[neorage]

think of the brick as neo from the matrix..

an anomoly.. in the code.. will run perfectly.. tho piss him off and will go all kung fu on you .. lol
