This is solution to play demos, that requires FW 3.50:

All you have to do is:

• Make a HDD backup !
• Install demos .pkg (links provided in this topic) on Jailbroken 3.41.
• Restart PS3 without Jailbreak dongle.
• Do the standard FW upgrade to retail 3.50.
• Play demos: Little Big Planet 2 Demo (3.50) and Mass Effect 2 Demo (3.50) works great.
• After you're bored playing demos, do the downgrade to 3.41.
• Recover your HDD backup.

That's it.

The PSJB Compatibility List says the BestBuy GT5 Demo is playable on 3.41! but no download links..

You forgot the step where you might lose bluray playback. No thanks.

Check the frontpage, the problem has now been alleviated

I upgraded to 3.50 after getting a surprising present of GT5 today. Forgot to install the ME2 or LBP2 demos though, so I've downgraded back to install those and then I'll hop back again to play them and GT5. I'm going to grab myself an extra hard drive in the future though, as doing the backup transfer everytime is going to be a pain! (unless the devs get 3.50 emulation, custom firmware or hacked of course =D).
