cecha01

I'll make this short and sweet, does anyone here have a scan/images of the original PS3 Console Box Art? I just bought a CECHA01 and I wanted to get a box made for it (instead of buying it on the internet) but I can't find any high-res or centered images of the box. I was wondering if anyone...

Hello there; PlayStation 3 hacking noob here, I recently imported a CECHA01 PS3 into Europe to play the back-catalogue of PlayStation on one box with no emulation issues and without upscaler boxes on my 4K OLED TV. I already had some PS2 game discs when I had my old TV and a standalone PS2, but...

Hi, i'm new here so please forgive me if i'm posting on wrong place, anyway i have this PS3 model CECHA00 with YLOD, the previous owner has removed the 4x NEC/TOKIN from the bottom of the board, so i replaced it with 16x 470uF 2,5v Tantalum Capacitors, but the console continue with ylod...

I've tried searching for this topic, and I've gotten some mixed answers. I'm trying to find out for sure what the problem is so that I don't waste my money on replacement parts that won't fix the issue. I apologize, as I know this topic has probably been covered at length somewhere else, but my...

Hello! I've finally gotten around to diagnosing my dad's old cecha01 that had a ylod like 10 years ago. Because I'm not the greatest at soldering, I ended up lifting the RX pad needed to use the syscon. I scraped away at the trace and soldered the wire to it and assuming it was fine, it wasn't...

I just finished running the last of us main menu stress test for a hour and and 45 minutes. PS3 is a cecha01 with zssr psu (ordered a aps-231 on eBay for $35). 65c-69c on CPU, 60c-61c on RSX, webman fan speed set to 36% auto/max 72c. How much lower would my temps be after the swap from zssr to...

I have a Playstation 3 (CECHA01) that attempts to boot up but gives the Red Screen of Death. I noticed that the hard drive light flashes briefly before the screen comes up. The internal fans do turn on and seem to work. I've not been successful in accessing the XrossMediaBar menu or the...

Hello, I recently got my hands on a Fat PS3 CECHA12. I installed HEN on it after I initially had the CFW evilNat 3.88 jailbreak. I couldn't find a way to play my PS3 games online so this seemed like the next best alternative. That, and from what I have read, its a safer way of doing it as of...

I bought a week ago a CECHA01 PS3 dated January 2007 and it plays great, for $90 on FB Marketplace. I feel like a kid on Christmas. It sounded like an airplane when turned on. I opened it up to find tons of dust, an excess of white thermal paste, and the grey and power cables in the fan jumped...

Hello! You probably guessed by the title, but I have an old but functional CECHA01 with the warranty sticker still intact. I left this system on the shelf collecting dust for many years and recently decided to jailbreak it and back up my library. So I have been running it quite a bit lately...

Ps3 turns on fine no YLOD or nothing like that but when i see the Sony logo on boot seconds after it goes black with pixals. anyone know whats going on and how to fix if possible.

From OFW 4.85 I installed HFW 4.85.1 and after that I ran the nand dumper since I have a CECHA01. I pressed "initialize exploitation" and I got the success message printed out, but immediately my PS3 shut down and is now blinking with a red light and can't be turned on. It's the yellow light of...

Hello! I have this CECHA01 that I've been working on repairing and I troubleshooted everything and came to the conclusion that the board that came with it when I purchased it broken from ebay, was not married to the PS3. It does take disks, it'll read them but nothing comes up on screen. Eject...
