Thank you so much. The firmware version is 4.86 by now, and just min version of it is 3.56. Checked with minverchk because I can't access any internet hotspot. I will do all the process with bgtoolset and after install 4.86.1 lite, enable qa flag and downgrade.
Thanks again, really appreciated...
Ok, I have a 2511A with lfcaro min ver 3.56. I saw that I can or cannot go for cfw on these models.
What's is the best solution for those models. And how can I try installing CFW on it? Bgtoolset can help me verify if it can receive a CFW? I would like to install 4.84.2 rebug on it

Thank you @bguerville , @Coro and @jcorrea for all info. The PS3 system updates normally to 4.86, and on bgtoolset, it says that is compatible with CFW.
Now I'll try to change my friends mind to put CFW and not HEN on this console.
Thank you all again for helping me.
New info: I tested the BD drive.
With PS1 Games: Works normally
With PS2 Games: As stated by the model 2501a, the recognizes the PS2 disc, but shows incompatible software
With PS3 Games: Strugles a lot to read, some times boots the game, some times it even show the game.
PS3 was on 4.85...
Ok, but my question is: can I install the firmware, even with the drive not reading BD Discs?. Example: the drive read a music cd, but not a game, can I install the hfw on it? Because I want to install HEN on it.

I have a slim 2501a with a defective bd drive (it struggles to read discs, when it reads).
Is it safe to install hfw 4.86 on it? If not, there are any hfw version with the noBD bypass?
