were can i buy the stuff i will be needing to do this..thanks man.....nice post

important update. this will not work for 3000x models and most likly not for the 4000x either. you can plug a e3 into a 3000x do back up and write to the nor but the ps3 blocks the e3 from editing it while writing to the nor. better understanding it blocks downgrade.bin from editing the nor on site.

Very easy tutorial.

Follow the steps to downgrade a ps3, but when you get to the first step of the usb downgrading part after putting your ps3 into service mode, use rogero 4.30cfw ver. 2.03 on the root of the usb with the lv2diag.self to downgrade instead of the roger 3.55 . so again no 3.55 ever touches the ps3 during this whole setup! Doing this will also now allow CECH-300x models original slims to be downgraded to 4.30 cfw as long as it never touches 3.55

The whole reason for this was to find out if the e3 flasher fits a CECH-400xx model super slim models, but all i needed was proof that you can downgrade from 4.31 to 4.30cfw with a e3 flasher, SO

IF ANY ONE OUT THERE HAS A E3 FLASHER AND A NEW SUPER SLIM MODEL PLEASE TEST THIS IF IT WORKS! YOU CAN MAKE BACK UPS OF THE NOR INCASE IT FAILS. unless some one wants to donate me one or trade for one of my cfw ps3's with some cash we will not know if this works just for that model.

Here is proof you can but i still do not know if the CECH-400xx models are compatible since i do not have one.

e3 step 1 - switch pup's with rogero's 4.30cfw v 2.03 - my link has it set ready
e3 step 2 - lv2diag out of factory mode
ps3 nor dump patcher to fix bad back ups
e3 downgrade.bin - makes the e3 flasher rewrite the nor to allow factory mode access
update.bin - its the samsung version of the e3flasher firmware allows multi console downgrades. more than one console in other words
flowrebuilder - decrypts the backups to look and make sure its good


video

here is proof ^ of me downgrading to 4.30 cfw no 3.55! my video is not cut but speeds up through the middle since it takes almost 2 hours to prove this. you see every time i drop the camera fix the e3 and finish the downgrade straight to 4.30 cfw roger v 2.03 which you will KNOW ITS SPOOFED TO 4.31, you can see the install pkg/lastgame icon after downgrading.

tut installing e3 flasher


hints! the e3 flasher always has the ribbon starting under the nor words
