Need help with brick

**soalokin** · 11-03-2012,02:36 AM

I got pretty much the same brick but on my NAND PS3 that was on 4.21 REX. After hitting Boot OtherOs in the toolbox by accident my PS3 rebooted after exiting it and now it just turns on with green light, no beeps no video. And recovery menu doesn't work

I was in DEX Mode I believe when i hit the boot otheros option in toolbox menu... I have a PSP and an android phone, can this help me undo this semibrick???

don't know man - still working on this one but I doubt it. I'm pretty sure you need a hardware flasher

Did you ever get into FSM?

**BahumatLord** · 11-03-2012,10:12 AM

No, it was late and the only screen I got was about the wrong hard disk. Gonna try again in a while now that I got a little sleep. At least a got a screen to come up at all - it's more than I was getting last week

if you downloaded the file pack from E3 then you got the downgrader.bin that you need for the Card Reader to get into FSM

yeah I think I got that far - trying to figure out this wrong hard drive error message

It's not helping that I haven't been able to look at the PS3 dev wiki for days. I'm having to use half assed guides from random dickheads that don't explain anything or do step by steps - they just assume you've done this 1000 times

**Quakes69** · 11-03-2012,12:12 PM

Have you tried a Different device to get into FSM? Or can you not use one cause you won't be able to get out of it?

I don't have anything else suitable for FSM dongle. Ive got an ipod that would work but the battery doesn't hold a charge

Doesn't have to be on that long. only to turn on the system. I believe once plugged into the PS3 with the PS3 ON it'll charge at the same time.

Let me check mine.

Yup, sure does. Once plugged into the PS3 that is on it charges at the same time.

You can always goto the psx-scane - See Stickies or trading-post.sytes.net - Rockbox files

Edit:
Could always goto a local pawn shop and see what they have in hand. You can pick up the old "1G's" for cheap. Probably $5 give or take.
