Spoiler:
***Take your game out of your disk drive***

First on one of your flashdrives, You will need OFW 3.21, Found here: downloads.exophase.com/634/ps3-firmware-321/

Your second USB will contain your desired frimware,
Whether that friware is 3.55, or 3.56, 3.66,
Just put it on the USB in the PS3 UPDATE folder

-Now go to your PS3, start the restore mode menu.
----**Okay, all idiots that don't follow from here on WILL brick their console, seriously.**------------

----*Plug in both controllers, if your second controller does not turn on, you are okay,
if it does, you need to put it back into restore.---------

-----Click "Restore System Default" With first controller, and AS YOU press it, unplug your power cord,----

While spamming the O Button on 2nd controller. <<< Note: My brother always helped. :l

Okay so as soon as you unplug your PS3, make sure Controller 2 is still spamming O

Plug power cord back in, Hold the "Disk Eject" Button for 15 seconds.

Still spamming O

After 15 seconds, quit spamming O, Unplug controller 1, Put controller 2 into Controller 1's slot

Put USB with 3.21 in.

Enter restore mode.

If you did it correctly, you should go to Update, and be able to update to 3.21, if not retry,
My first console took 4 trys. Don't worry.

After you update to 3.21, Unplug power cord. Put the 3.21 USB in Controller 2's slot, put Desired Frimware USB in other slot, use wireless controller now.

Instert your CD/ early Game.

Turn on your console.

Keep pressing the PS button on your controller in tell it brings up a screen that looks like recovery screen.

there will be 3 options

"Terminate HDD Memory"
"Report Sytem Defect to Main Hub"
"Insert new Default Update"

And you will see the Registerd TradeMark Sony PS3 at the bottom.
Turn off your controller, unplug 3.21 USB, plug in Controller 2.

Press "Insert new Default Update"

It will ask for default update's registration code.

Here are a list of registration codes, they all work.
DO NOT Input them wrong, or it will YLOD your sytem.

3.55- 49-9034-3554
(Note: There are different codes for slims, which you can PM me to recieve)
3.56- 50-2534-3565
3.60- 71-6774-3607
3.61- 72-2378-3617
3.66- 94-3298-3669



Then it will say "Override error" Have an option to click "OK" or press O to leave the screen.

Switch controllers from controller 2, to controller 1, then press "OK"

It will ask for the serial number of the system.
Just enter "PS3XPR.%34" For fats and "PS3XPR.%34S" for slims.
And it will let you continue.
It will ask you to click "OK" one last time
Then you will have to press "Install"
Let it download the update, When it's finished, it will shut down, the red light will flash 3 times, Green 3 times, Red 4 times, Green 3 times, Red 5 times, Green 3 times, Red 6 times, green 4 times.
IMMIDEIETLY at the end of Green 4 times "Beep, Beep, Beep, Beep"
You have to unplug the power cord.
Then plug it back in after 15 seconds.
You will start up your system with none of your USB slots being used, it will then install the update, and restart your console.

Congratulations, your ready to jailbreak!
