PS3 CECH2001A Update error 8002F14E

[Buty]

Hello, I'm having a strange behavior with this console. Some months ago, my BD Ribbon cable broke but since I was not using the Drive, I took it out and started using the Evilnat NO-BD firmwares which suited me just fine so I didn't replace the ribbon until recently.

I wasn't able to play any ISO based games without replacing the cable (standard) but after doing so I can play any format in the NO-BD firmware versions.

However, I can not update to Standard firmwares, even with the ribbon cable attached and everything working as normal. When I replaced the cable, I only connected the Daughterboard at first, but after getting the error I tried the whole drive, same thing, the system only updates to NO-BD firmwares.

Things to note:

BD-Drive blue light keeps blinking forever, then stops for some seconds in a loop. It used to make some "motor" noises but it stopped.
The drive takes the disc and spits it out, nothing happens.

make sure both cables are connected -- power and data cables.

Hello, they are both connected, maybe the power connector is faulty? Because I bought two Ribbons and both give me the same result.

if the drive's light is blinking and the disc goes in, then the power cable is working. check that the data cable is well connected and that it has no tears/breaks in it.

UPDATE: Checked everything again, tried to install a Standard Firmware and while it does let me install and restart just fine, when i check the version with Webman it still says it's stil NO-BD.

I know the firmware did get installed because I tried REBUG 4.84.2 to differentiate from Evilnat 4.89, what's weirder is that there is no official NO-BD REBUG 4.84 afaik.

BD led still blinking.
