(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok so I'm new to this and I've done A LOT of research so hopefully I'm not so much of a noob. And yes, you can still insult me and call me a noob if it makes your life easier o.o

Aaaanyway...

-I sent my PS3 to get downgraded to 3.55 ofw with an E3 Flasher thingy.

-While I'm waiting for it to be ready (this Monday) I have already downloaded REBUG 4.30.2 REX EDITION and 4.41 Version Spoofer 2.3 AND a GTA EFLC mod menu.

-When I get the PS3 back, I will move/copy the REBUG 4.30.2 REX EDITION file to a USB flash drive that has more than 200MB (mine has 900+MB :nerdSmile BUT FIRST!!!! wait for it...I will create a PS3 folder in the root of the flash drive and then another folder inside that folder named UPDATE and then I will move/copy the file inside that folder AND THEN rename the file to PS3UPDAT.PUP :megusta: so it looks like this: PS3>UPDATE>PS3UPDAT.PUP then I will plug it into my 3.55 ofw PS3 then update it via Storage Media and let it do its thing :| And then install the REBUG Toolbox but I don't feel like explaining how to do that o.o so after that I guess it's cfw or whatever you wanna call it :/ movin' on then..

Now to install the spoofer goofer (which is the part where I don't get a single thing :( help! please)...

-I will turn on the PS3 and enable QA Flag.

-Move the 4.41 Version Spoofer file onto the root of my USB flash drive and plug it into the PS3 and install it from Package Manager.

-Now I go to 'Games' and then select Rebug Toolbox then select 'Selector' and change System Mode to Rebug and watch it reboot.

-Disable QA Flag. And that's that...

The thing is that I'm very unsure if that's how to install the spoofer or if that's even the spoofer lol I would GREATLY appreciate it if some of you would help me out :( And did I do the jailbreaking right or no? LOL omg now I don't feel so confident :cry:

Thanks guys, -owlie

Sounds good to me but then again, I've been on OFW since 3.56. Don't rely on me at all.

Mostly dead on, good for you! Not too many noobs do research for themselves. ^^

Alright the spoofer is wrong tho and that's where I come in. You don't want the 4.41 spoofer, that is for other 4.xx CFWs like Rogero, etc., you want the "Rebug Update v.2 for 4.30.x CFWs" and install that. This will give you an updated Rebug Toolbox that when you turn "Rebug Mode" on it will spoof to 4.41. So in summary, follow the below steps...

Always make sure a disk is not in the BR Drive as it will update to this firmware if it is higher than the CFW you are trying to install. As in 4.40 OFW will be chosen over 4.30.2.

0ptional) You can install 3.55.4 and activate QA Flag from the Rebug toolbox as it is IMO better to QA Flag the PS3 on 3.55 than on 4.xx CFWs, but it is your choice.
1) Install "Rebug 4.30.2" from USB as you said.
2) Install "Rebug Update v.2 for 4.30.x CFWs" and run the app.
3) Go to the very right-most column and make sure it says "Enabled"
4) For the spoofer, go to the settings column and change system mode to "Rebug Mode"
5) Restart console and check System version, should say 4.41.
6) Log in, be careful tho, banning is a possibility.


Hope it works out for you, congrats, and if you need any firmware files go You must login or register to view this content.

Ok, I just know very little about the QA Flag lol So you're saying that it is better to install REBUG 3.55.4 REX EDITION instead of 4.30.2 REX EDITION for the QA Flag thing right?

Let's say that I'm going to jailbreak it exactly as I said, but instead of using 4.30.2 I will use 3.55.4....now, when it comes to the spoofer, at what point(s) will I toggle the QA Flag on? and do I leave it on forever? or at what point(s) do I turn it off? and when will I install 4.30.2 (my friend recommends it to me)

and on the spoofer, do you mean You must login or register to view this content. the first one? lol sorry I attacked you with all these questions, I feel like I'm finally getting this part Happy

Thank you so much guys for helping me out, especially Pseudo_Soldier for taking his time in resolving my spoofer problem over PMs. Deserves all the rep he can get and even more! I will be more than happy to post the resolution to the spoofer problem as it's totally wrong how I said it, only if it is asked for.

Edit---

There might be a post below this post asking Pseudo_Soldier to explain a few things for me as when I submitted that post it said that it had to be approved by a moderator and it hasn't been approved yet so when they approve it, it might just end up underneath this one and make everyone confused lol or hopefully it'll end up above this one and make it less confusing. Just to let everyone know, this problem has already been resolved.
