I'm not even going to start, you guys are sheep. I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing, getting that sample size up, up ,up to the moon, and I'll let you know how many I have to manually flash along the way. Toodles.

Used it to mod Three consoles so far and am having a blast, it works with low danger if you're not an idiot. Even with BGs legitimate tool there was risk of bricking a console with power loss.

So I was playing SC2 on my E fat ps3 when it Green lighted and shut off when I exited to the XMB. Thought it was maybe some kind of hardware disconnect or something, but no, put a moderate amount of pressure on the RSX bracket and she immediately output video from a GLoD black screen. So, I...

Well then I wish BG the best of luck with his donations, seeing as I have used that nasty little Slavic mirror site to mod 3 consoles. Too bad he couldn't just release a tool that does have the 4.89 bugs \/(°-°)\/. 2 months disabling every non-russian user from getting CFW on any OFW firmware is...

Is there anyway we can get an ETA for the next release of the BGtoolset? I find it kindof ridiculous that it's been two months and we cannot even get a second DNS to get people below 4.89 through. I love the tool, but why isn't it possible to have two tools, the one I've always been using for...

Can anyone point me in the right direction to replace the fuse/cap combo for a 2120/3031 error combo in powerstep 20/21?

COK-001 board. GLOD, no video output on either HDMI or A/V, with or without HDD connected, won't cycle off for Safe mode without 4th beep and hard shutting down. Also DS3 controllers won't pair via USB, so I don't think it's RSX not displaying anything. Tried applying new paste to processers...

Yes I have read that thread upon re-reading it I noticed someone said that A models can be paired with hardware sourced from A-K models which is more what I had questions about. Thanks.

Yes, I was just wondering if the console would brick itself if the firmware on the Daughterboard was not was the MB is expecting. Saving alot of A models with this, thank you!

Yeah I noticed that it's wasn't true black screen because when a rebooted the console it would intermittently display video, so I figured it was just some weird interaction with having a possibly dead encoder, but the resolution thing is likely.

I know that you can swap power supplys between models, but can you take, say a G model BD drive and remarry it to a CFW A model, or use that BD drive to upgrade the OFW of a NoBD A model, to use a a stepping stone to get NoBD CFW?

Recently it I've come across a few BC A models with varying problems, including BD drive issues. Putting REBUG 4.86.1 lite CFW with NoBD designation on the console then following the " MyAdventure" guide has help tremendously. Unfortunately I encountered a system that appears to have an issue...

Hello I wanted to know if these two USB devices (identical chips) are equivalent during syscon diagnosis of A-K model PS3 fats? https://a.co/d/6Q9zii3 And https://a.co/d/fnVzqTe Thank you!

Long time Sony fanatic come into some extraordinary luck recently. I've got the right idea but need some guidance.
