probably not necessarily needed per say, but it is recommended to change while you are in there. reason? the crap that Sony uses is minimal and brakes down pretty easily and after a short time, is no longer functioning. Its actually the reason for a lot of PS3 overheating issues. I would always recommend that while you are in there, upgrade the paste to a high quality paste. Something along the lines of Artic Silver 5. doing this does worlds for prolonging the life of the PS3

so correct me if i think this is too easy, first you buy a e3 flasher,the screwdrivers to open ps3. then you open up the ps3 till you get to the motherboard, then once there you attatch the e3 clip on it, then u hook other side to the e3 reader device, then go on pc and update the e3 flasher and then you go from there, is it easy as it sounds? and can i do this to a ps3 on 4.70ofw downgrade to 3.55ofw

there are plenty of good tuts out there(I would recommend watching a few all the way through before attempting to do the downgrade). It is pretty simple if you can follow directions. Hardest part honestly is separating the motherboard from tray. There are many recommendations to do this ranging from a hair dryer, to using a heat gun. I would make the personal recommendations to NEVER use a heat gun as a lot of ppl do on the board of a ps3 or any other sensitive electronic equipment period. The reason for this is simple. Being an auto tech by trade, I know how hot heat guns can get. This is entirely too much heat to be used on electronics simply because it can melt the existing solder on the board...which is basically what causes YLOD and/or RLOD. So yeah, watch over a few tuts all the way through, and if you feel confident enough to try it, then by all means. I definetly would NOT however recommend doing it if it is your only PS3...as if you mess up, there is a chance you will brick the console ie: making it non useable except to rip a console id from and basically use as a door stop at that point. I waited until I had three ps3's before I downgraded one of them. One of the three I left OFW, the second I jailbroke and set up for CEX. and the third one which I recently picked up was jailbroken and converted to DEX.... But that's all besides the point. Yeah, downgrade is pretty easy if you can follow instructions, just watch some tuts and see if you are comfortable attempting it.

Hey I have a question. What are those 4.46 and 4.70 patchers and 4.60 downgrade files I see in the pic?
Cuz I thought it didn't matter what firmware the PS3 was on. That all that matter was that the PS3 model was included in the list of models the e3 flasher worked on.

ok so example, if you extract the 4.50 dump, you have to use the 4.50 patcher to patch the bkpp dump, each firmware have a different patcher, some times the older patcher will work on the new dump but its risky i would not advise u do that

Guys so I'm trying to downgrade my PS3 with the e3 and for some reason when I try to get a dump I get the 10001100 error. I even tried the styrofoam trick to apply extra pressure but no luck :(


I have a fat 40gig PS3 Model CECHH
Any advise?

Check the error code on e3 flasher wiki I'm sure it's memory card not inserted correctly or lose the error code 10001100
