    Hi every1,

    I have a PS3 fat ( with two usb in front). So i purchased the original PS jailbreak from one of the suppliers in Canada. received it installed everything and all good.

    Meanwhile my brother went and updated to 3.55 firmware and i had no idea. so i putt the key in do the regular thing to Jailbreak. power/eject. ..Nothing i see a red screen on bottom right corner saying something ...service/mode.. over and over till i realized he updated the firmware ( he got a hell of a beating lol).
    so then i try to downgrade but find our really fast that you can't downgrade yet from 3.55.

    Here I am stuck with a red screen on right hand.
    Is there a way i can get rid of the service/mode screen .

    Thank you for all your replies and helps. I know they are coming out with some update to downgrade from 3.55 soon

    These stories remind me of the wii... I really don't understand how people just update to the next firmware. It does take a few steps too update, not like you just boot up and accidently hit wrong button.

    I am guessing you will have to wait until there is a downgrade for the 3.55.

    If you had read a bit beforehand, you wouldn't even attempted a downgrade, knowing there isn't one yet.


    You can try this file to get out of service mode, but no idea if it works on your 3.55

    If you put the second smaller "lv2diag.self" on a usb stick by itself, it should knock your machine out of service mode!

    once you machine in service mode, all you got to do is make sure your usb stick in fat32, and you have second smaller 200kb self on it by itself, and just power on normally with the usb stick inserted into the right-most usb slot, the one closest to the blu-ray drive.

    If it works, you system will auto shut-down after no more then 30 seconds.

    Make sure the smaller self is called Lv2diag.self

    With no extra extensions or periods or labels on it.

    Just like above with the first letter in upper-case "L" and the rest in lower-case "v2diag.self".

    k the files i have to downgrade are Lv2diag.self.1 , Lv2diag.self.2 (smaller file) , PS3UPDAT.PUP and 554672619F79C2FF.fla

    i guess i use the Lv2diag.self.2. also in the near future where would i download the downgrade files

    last thing i don't do power/eject but simply turn everything off and power like normal with usb key in the one furhter to right with Lv2diag.self.2 on it . i will give it a try . hopefully it will work
