Official Firmware users': YOU CAN NOT INSTALL THIS CFW ON OFW FIRMWARE ABOVE 3.55 OFW:
Use this utility for additional info about your PS3 Model and the possibility of Downgrading
 
PSP worked fine on 4.70, never got PS2 working...
But I needed to upgrade to get some of my DLCs from PSN. And I don't know how to downgrade.
An easy tutorial (step to step) for playing PSP, PS1 and PS2 games on 4.75 would be nice, I read so many tuts until now I think my head explodes....

[MENTION=6855]leyanna[/MENTION] Ready? GO! :P On cobra CFW.

PS1: Mount ISO in favorite backup manager, run game from disc icon.
PSP: Install PSP launcher (one time only), Mount ISO in favorite manager (CSO is not supported) and run using PSP launcher Download: Cobra PSP Launcher v2.00 by Cobra - PS3 Brewology - PS3 PSP WII XBOX - Homebrew News, Saved Games, Downloads, and More!
PS2: Highly recomended to use latest habib fw for that. Install PS2 ISO LAUNCHER 1.03 activate it in psnpatch (one time only). Run it (laucher not psnpatch) and maintain sync (without mounting any games). Now onwards when you mount a ISO, run the Placeholder Icon and ISO will be loaded.
 
I would really like to try this but am new to this whole thing. Should this work on a CECH3001B? Do I need to have some sort of other software or anything to do this or put it on my thumb drive and install from external storage as a system update?
 
you just need a fw at or below 3.55

Can you point me in the right direction to downgrade 4.75 to 3.55? I would greatly appreciate it.

So I found the 3.55 official firmware. Do I need a flasher of some sort or just put it on a thumb drive and install through system update on ps3?

CECH-3000X and above, or CECH-2500X models manufactured after 2010 and are shipped with 3.56 as the factory firmware CANNOT have CFW 3.55 installed, even if you try to install a downgrader PUP onto it as the post-3.55 firmwares have a built-in integrity/verification check to see if the firmware is official or not.
 
First [MENTION=56]Alexander[/MENTION] he got 30XX that can't be downgraded. Even using hardware flasher. Second [MENTION=230]gDrive[/MENTION] some 3.56 consoles (250X datacode 1A 1B which mean 01 to 06 2011)can handle CFW but, can't be dowgraded, need to be patched instead.

So how would I patch it? As I said I'm new to this but follow instructions very well. All I really want to do is be able to download a game from the internet and install/play it on my ps3.
 
If you have CECH 300X you CAN'T install CFW. Buy older model, that's all.

OK. thought in your other post you said it needed to be patched instead but I must have misunderstood you.
I've been seeing this pages and videos online about people jailbreaking 4.75 by downloading a 4.75 jailbroken file and putting it on a thumb drive then doing system update with it. Is this real or people just trying to brick peoples ps3's. I downloaded one of the files but it is password protected and you have to complete some BS offers to get the password. Just wondering if you guys think this is legit or not.

One word: B.U.L.L.S.H.I.T!

That's what it is, and if you see a bunch of cretinous jackasses providing things through surveys, then you should know WITHOUT ANY UNCERTAINTY that they're completely full of shit.

That's what I thought... Thanks for the info you guys. Going to see if I can find an older unit on ebay or something since I can't do anything with mine.

Good luck with that, and yes, you should be able to find one on the cheap if you look hard enough!

As I have written. he needs obligatorily ( CECH3001B ) cobra ode with solder tab "sata QSB". I had not read his model of PS3.
 
Buongiorno a tutti avrei bisogno di un aiutino da parte vostra se e possibile, ho scaricato ferrox da questa pagina e fin li tutto ok,
quando vado sulla playstation 3 che gli do l'aggiornamento sulla chiavetta mi trova ferrox parte poi arriva al 72 percento e mi da file danneggiati.
come posso fare? ho provato più strade però mi da la stessa cosa non so più come fare.
vi ringrazio anticipatamente.
 
[MENTION=14422]carlicri[/MENTION] , dovresti usare la lingua inglese per il supporto. Comunque se ti arriva al 72%, vuol dire che hai una PS3 con Original Firmware superiore al 3.55. Non puoi effettuare una modifica software con un OFW 3.55+/4.xx . Mi spiace.

However, if you get to 72%, it means that you have a PS3 with Original Firmware higher than 3.55. You can not make a change software with an OFW 3.55 + / 4.xx. I am sorry.
