I had already done that. It was about the clip not being read properly or something. I was using the styrofoam method so I really didn't know why it wasn't working because that method works for like everyone else lol

In the end I ended up using coins as a last resort instead of styrofoam and I guess that actually gave it more pressure cuz it finally worked Smile

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

your e3 flasher is probably not seated properly, try turning it the other way maybe and make sure u feel a little snap

i hope this does get too technical for u because when i started out it was hard for me to understand some of this stuff too, but when u use E3 flasher your gonna extract a dump from the ps3, put that dump on the computer modify it then put it back on your ps3, now from there u can either install 3.55 CFW downgrader or just install a 4.75 Cex CFW, the only reason i would recommend u downgrade to 3.55 after u modify the dump on put it back on the ps3 is convert to cex, but technically u dont have to install the 3.55 FW, if u really just want to mod and dont care about CEX or DEX just install a 4.75 Cex CFW after u modify the Dump
