  • Kado Releases True Blue Patch for Downgraded PS3's

    To Quote:
    How to use it:
    If you attend to downgrade 3.56+ console and use TB dongle after that then use this steps (if you already at Rogero CFW V2.0 do the same steps also):

    1. - Dump your NOR flash using Progskeet first if you didn't have a good dump from your console.
    2. - Download patch file attached to this thread.
    3. - Extract this file and you will get 4 folders use patch in folder "Coba_2" to patch your dump using WinSkeet.
    4. - Apply this patch to your dump then flash it to your console.
    5. - Enter a Factory Service Mode using any method you like.
    6. - Use TB CFW with Lv2diag.self to flash your TB CFW in FSM.
    7. - Start your console normally, if it brick just dump this NOR flash again then patch again using "Coba_2" patch.
    8. - If it still bricked use "Coba_3" patch to patch your dump again then flash it back to your console.
    9. - Start console normally, now your console can run TB CFW on downgraded console.
    10. - Power off your console, plug your TB Dongle then power it on again and enjoy .



    Credit goes to Kado for this patch
    Also a very big thanks goes to:
    Abkarino (Me kado gives me this not me),nice69, uf6667, rogero,muggi, eusnl, ago, and all ppl.

    Hot Tip:
    For every one interested just look at patch2 file it is and empty coreos file with only part of lv0 modified to do this trick

      If it still bricked use "Coba_3" patch to patch your dump again then flash it back to your console.
      This should be scary enough if you don't have a flasher...

      Geohot gave access to the hypervisor everything we have is built on that, fail overflow and Cfw 3.55


      The dongle exploit is the result of others working with the files that hypervisor normally hides.

      Your an idiot. Can you downgrade from 4.00 to 3.55 without a hardware flasher? Answer = NO.

      I'm a bit confused now. I've bought TB dongle and have found a guy in my town who can downgrade my PS3. Shouldn't I be able to install TB FW easily, without problems on downgraded 3.55 PS3? Why are people unable to run TB after downgrading? Sorry for a n00bish question :|
