Frank Rizzo 0 Posted April 1, 2013 He might need a hardware flasher installed if he has truly bricked it. God knows how, Rogero's last few CFW releases are stable. Unless he used an old one. I don't know why he didn't just put CFW 4.40 1.02 on, the very latest ? Only thing is to search http://www.tortuga-cove.com/ and look for others who have had a similar problem.

Frank Rizzo 0 Posted April 1, 2013 The early CFW''s Rogero released for 4.21 were very unstable. This list shows what worked and what didn't.

Good news is he doesn't need to have a proper nand/nor dump anymore to restore like previously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coorva 10 Posted April 17, 2013 ok so the customer dropped off the ps3,,and yes will not boot,,not even to recovery,,he also dropped off proskeet black tar edition,,i have never used proskeet,,and from what i gather he does not have a backup of his nand,, i think this is a waste of time but would the E3 flasher dump whats there now if there is anything,,proskeet looks like a nightmare to hook up,,any thoughts??

jbp210 46 Posted July 13, 2013 Old post but i will bring it back up. If it boots to just a black screen, most of the time all per console data should still be intact. You need to use Hxd or any other hex editor and pull all per console data of the dump and add into a valid dump the reflash. If you come across them in the future i do bad flash repairs i can help you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baileyscream 0 Posted January 27, 2014 all you needed to do was create a new dump patch it as a downgrade (ie replacing all the ros0 and ros1 areas) flash it back and if you patched for the latest cfw then enter recovery and re-install the cfw (once patched it will enter recovery) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
