Post: ps3 downgrade and cfw?
08-26-2012, 01:14 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); hi im a bit of noob but i was wondering if i pre-load 3.55 cfw spoofed for 4.21 onto an internal hard drive (from my pc, if there is a way) will it work or will i get something like data corrupted or that it needs to update?
also if anyone knows if it is possible to downgrade my ps3 4.21 to 3.70 or below with the X3max jailbreak dongle?
thanks, my ps3 is CHECH2502A

your firmware is stored on the motherboard not hdd so that would not work and if this "X3max jailbreak dongle" doesnt include taking your ps3 apart and flashing your nor/nand chip no it will not downgrade your 4.20
the only way to downgrade is to flash it back to its lowest firmware with a tool such as:
E3 flasher
Progskeet
Teensy
im sure theres more but there are just a few known ones off the top of my head
it can be a job so unless your confidant enough or you have a good enough tutorial and a lot of patience i would not go up this road can leave you with a dead ps3

so true if they would just spend 15 mins before they post they would see that the day before somebody would have asked the very same question and got the very same conclusion theres no 4.20 jb and you need a tool to downgrade
