X3MAX issues

[korn16ftl]

so i have come to the conclusion i am either doing something wrong or im restarted

i am trying to get my PS3 to boot into jailbreak mode, i have tried both x3MAX_Generic.bin and x3MAX_Generic_V1.1.bin using X3 tool v.2.0 i have tried flashing the following HEX files:
Minimus, Maximus 32, and Teensy ++ 2.0 and all of them fail to load into JB mode they all have me press the PS button upon system start up but there is no install .PKG option and my OBM (open back up manager) will not launch resulting in error 800XXXX.

what exactly am i missing he e am i supposed to flash both payload and the Generic.bin's at once or individually this just isent working out and im assuming im messing something up here (i just got it today to replace my PS3KEY)

any help would be greatly appreciated i have read the instructions some pictures would be nice in there i can tell a lot about whats going on in a picture and words than just words and it also makes me feel a lot more self assured im doing things right as well

If you use the X3MAX what payloads do you normally flash and could you upload the payload you are currently using and know works so i may try that rather than just randomly picking payloads to try that might be part of the issue like i said im unshure

I think there was a generic bin version 1.2 released to fix this issue. It's been gone over a couple of times on this board, but I'm sure searching for x3max comes up with a ton of topics. Anyway, if you still can't figure out what you're doing wrong, PM InsideX3 as he's the North America distributor of the product and has been really helpful with this issue when others were having it.

thanks for the info i got my 1.1 generic bin from here http://psx-scene.com/forums/f6/x3max...working-70736/ (X3Max Generic Update - Any Hex Bug Fixed, 100% Working!)

at least im not the only one having problems i suppose really wish they would keep there downloads section (at the X3 site) updated with this stuff....

RESOLVED:
there was/is something jacked up with USB port 1 i plugged in my nyko media hub (3 port usb hub with sd/duo card reader) into slot 1 and it works like a charm now must be a loose prong/ground or something like that. USB port 2 also shows a successful boot on the LED's how ever it says unknown USB device detected (should plug a HUB in and see if it makes port 2 work) and has no .PKG installer or does not boot the BM how ever USB port 4 woks (fat console) every boot right from the PS3 so as long as i can JB all is good until a CFW or more permanent solution is found
