Post: Help! How can I find an update for 3.55 firmware that really works on the web?...
06-19-2011, 08:27 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I'm new to this jailbreaking stuff and I don't much about it I'm sorry... I have a PS3 Fat (version 3.65)and I've been looking all over for a PS3 3.55 firmware update on the web. I found quite a lot actually... I downloaded them and put them on my USB stick but each time I got the same message "no applicable update data was found"... There was only one that downloaded that started working but it stopped at 70% and I got the error message code 8002F828... I don't get it! Is it the same mess with adding Multiman on PS3? Does anybody know where I can find verified downloads of these softwares which work? Thanks. Serge

OP, you cannot go from a firmware to one older than it, unless you use an exploit or hack (which is not out yet for 3.61/3.65)

If you really want CFW, I suggest staying on 3.65 and never updating. I'm staying on 3.61...We might wait for months, hell we might even be waiting in vain, but that's what you have to do if you really want CFW. The lower OFW you have, the more chance of getting CFW for it.

Why was I so sure someone here would be flaming. He has a question, and if you had a brain you would have reading comprehension (and comprehend that he said he doesn't know about CFW and jailbreak).

He isn't stupid, just not informed on this. I'm sure all you know about CFW and JB is from ARTICLES AND THREADS ON NGU. It's pricks like you that ruin this community. YOU ARE NOT A HACKER. INSTALLING CFW DOES NOT MAKE YOU A 'LOL L33T HAXXOR' AND GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO INSULT OTHERS THAT ARE NOT INFORMED AS IF YOU KNOW SHIT!

That said, OP, I really suggest you google next time. For 2 reasons:

1)It saves you the time for waiting for others to reply
2)It doesn't give people like the guy I quoted a +1 on his post # and e-peen

Sorry Dude, You can't jailbreak after 3.60. But If u jailbreak 3.60, you have to be in Retail Mode I hear. You are gonna need to buy a 3.55 or 3.41 PS3 to jailbreak and host modded lobbies.

either what the other guys said, or you just forgot to do the folders, to do the folders go to the root of ur usb, new folder and type PS3 in caps, then go inside the ps3 folder and make a new folder called UPDATE in caps, and put your ps3 firmware inside the update folder. Hope it helps Smile

Did I ever say I was a hacker you dumb c(u)nt? No. This should be common knowledge. Even someone who has never had a PS3 should be able to easily guess this. A company OBVIOUSLY doesn't want someone reverting to a firmware that allowed piracy. Anyways, no one likes wannabe mods. No, I will not argue with a twelve year-old that has down syndrome, so don't bother replying. I simply won't read it.
