PS3HEN downgrade procedure.

Recently found myself having to do this. Ultimately was successful.

I suspect just doing the 3 last steps may work. But i have not tested. In my case I did the following:

From HFW 4.84 with Latest HEN (2.1.0). Install OFW 4.8.4

Boot PS3 on OFW. Install HFW 4.8.4

Boot PS3 on HFW 4.8.4. Install HAN.

Enable HAN.

Go to PS3Exploit and 'Enable HAN PKG Blind'

Install your desired HEN HDD or USB Installer PKG. (2.0.2 in my case)

Reboot. Enable HEN.

It's because it's been update with the older files superceded. Not sure why your having those issues as I'm on the same system and it's working great for me. I'll see if I have the old 2.0.2 files in the morning for you though.

Even after doing all the OFW/HFW flashing. It doesn't touch the /dev_hdd0/hen/ files that still exist. Trying to install on top gives error. But after enabling blind pkg install, I'm assuming it's overwriting.
