So I understand that downgrading supposedly kills blu-ray, and to restore it one must have a blu-ray drive on PC or install Linux on PS3. Not an option for me.
But what if I instead, UPGRADE to 3.55 and jailbreak at that point? Do I STILL kill my blu-ray? My current firmware is 3.42.
Also, if I do upgrade to 3.55, can I upgrade directly into the jailbroken 3.55 or do I have to install the OFFICIAL 3.55, and THEN jailbreak it?
Thanks!
You are going to want to install CFW on your console, upgrade to 3.55 and then install kmeaw or whatever your preference is. I haven't heard any reports of it breaking blu-ray.
Here is one tutorial on installing CFW: http://psx-scene.com/forums/f187/[cf...me-sexy-76406/
And here is another one that i personally used and i think might be easier to follow:

I have a phat 20GB (one of the first PS3s) and was on FW 3.41 (using a TI-89 to JB).
I used this tutorial -> http://psx-scene.com/forums/f118/cfw...ll-pack-77294/
and upgraded to CFW 3.55 and am able to pay all my back ups. I have not lost Blu-Ray capabilities or any function on my PS3.
Just make sure you follow the directions EXACTLY how they are presented.
