Downgrade wtf ?!

**Milz** · 03-11-2011,04:43 AM

Oki here's the deal, i made a huge bummer ..
I had my PS3 slim jailbreaked with PS3JailBreak V1.1 Dongle fully updatet, one om my friends borrowed my ps and updated it, so now i can't use the .PUP to get back to 3.41 so the JB will work again..

Tryed getting a hand on downgrading but just can't seem to get it right..
Only thing im curious about i how the F! do i get my JB dongle to be a DG dongle, and the otherway around.. Found ALOT of guide, but none told me how to make it a DG dongle, all the other stuff i get, just that one.. Pretty annoying, havent been able to play PS for a while now..

Any help on this issue ?

Firmware 3.56 or above you can't downgrade at this time unfortunately you're stuck and I would be asking my friend to buy a ps3 can swap me out since he want to be a moron. Only firmwares 3.55 and lower can be downgraded and if you try on 3.56+ you will be stuck in service mode basically leaving you a brick till someone can find out how to downgrade but I doubt that will happen as Sony actually fixed most flaws in 3.56 and even more so on 3.60. As they totally removed all the keys. There is no lv2 anymore at least what we were used to seeing..

Thanks for the helpful reply..

Now, i'm currently on 3.55, so should be downgradeable..

Refer to earlier question ^^

3.55 can be downgraded. There are instructions. You will have to look around to figure out which downgrade hex to flash, and then check out the thread regarding downgrading to 3.55 (browse around)

Consider the alternative: Updating to KMEAW Custom 3.55 firmware. You are already partly there.

Understand that the concern here is that you said your friend updated, but you didn't say it was only to 3.55. 3.56 is BAD NEWS - attempting to go into service mode on 3.56 or above will BRICK YOUR CONSOLE.

P.S.: Smack your "friend" upside the head, then never, ever loan out your PS3 again.

You don't need to use the jailbreak on CFW as it's permenantly jail broken already. The reason you can't launch your games is because on 3.41 it required modified EBOOT.BIN which doesn't work on 3.55. You need to find the original EBOOT.BIN for each of your games and then they will work.

Many of the games are original rips of my own games etc..

Doesnt gaia read in the folder 'GAMEZ' lo locate the games ? Or is it just to be put in the root ?

But thanks alot, your answere was good info

Oh right, there's different versions of Gaia Manager depending on what folder your games are stored in, GAMES, GAMEZ or BDRIPS. You can find them in this thread, pick the one that's right for you and Gaia should show your games.

Dump gaia and go with multiman 1.16.11 is the latest I think. Anyhow it has an ini file and you tell it where to look for your games. It is also updateable via the application itself for next time you need to update and has the sweet PSX-Store intergrated for downloading and installing PS3 homebrew from the PS3 without the need for a PC or flash drive.
