Article: Rogero CFW V2 with Better Downgrade Compatibility

[Dragonborn]

dudes, one question. With this cfw can i downgrade a ps3 with 3.70 to 3.55 without pkgskeet?

i think this work this ways: in a 3.70 ps3 i install this cfw and after i can install the kmeaw. is this right?

.... I .... I think my brain activity just got reduced... severely.

If this CFW was possible without ProgSkeet, that would mean it is Solderless, which would mean we finally had a breakthrough in the PS3 Scene, which would Naturally mean this would be the first thing to be written in this Article....

So to answer your question: NO. You cannot do this without ProgSkeet, or E3 Flasher, for this matter.

And it doesn't work that way. Don't think, it's bad for you. You just wait for someone to make a version that is solderless or easier to understand, then take it.

Hi everyoneI have a ps3 backwards compatible 60g stuck at 3.41, because the previous owner tried to update to 3.55 and the console was spoofed with 3.56. Every time I try to update from xmb, it shows me an error and when I try update from recovery menu it tells me that i should use 3.56 update or higher. There would be any risk using this cfw made by rogero to update my ps3? and then downdgrade with qa flags if they are compatible?. i need to downgrade again because blueray playback is broken.I cant use the solution published some time ago since a blueray movie was never played on this ps3. I know I can downgrade using a jailbreak but i do not have one and buy one around here is pretty expensive. I have another ps3 no bc on 3.41 and i am thinking if copy flash 1 2 and 3 to ps3 bc would solve the problem?thanks for your help!

letrange, u have to downgrade to ofw 3.40, and then from the xmb install ofw 3.41, so u will be able to install ofw3.55 and so get finally the CFW 3.55!

What dionatangg is saying you ARE going to need a JB device (dongle, dev board, iPod, TI-84, PSP, etc.) to perform a downgrade, you could try this but I doubt it will do you any good.

Thank you for your help, guys. Well, it seems the safest way to fix this ps3 is buy a jb device and downgrade to 3.40. Greetings

this is to be used with a Nand/Nor Flasher to help prevent the trophy error after downgrade

If you can get Rebug CFW 3.41.3 on your system, you should be able to updage to OFW 3.55 from there. I would go to rebug.me, and download the 3.41 CFW, and try to install it, either in XMB or RECOVERY.

I know you can downgrade from the 3.55 to 3.41 using rebug's CFW, and skip the OFW 3.40 step, so I assume if you have to use SERVICE mode, you can use that CFW instead of the 3.40 OFW if you want.

I think h+is problem here is his PS3 was downgraded from 3.55 using Factory/Service and the old 3.41(3.56) pup and the only way to fix it would be to further downgrade in Factory/Service and then upgrade (hence no BD Playback)

No this Firmware is for after you have already downgraded. Its a 3.55 MFW with a patch that fixes that get a trophy error that people are getting from the downgrade.
