There is a homebrew application that boots your playstation up into F/S mode. Wanna know more? Because it isnt exacly what you wanted but its still F/S mode.

Try to fix the Power and Eject buttons, it seems to be your only option as you can't run homebrew.

no i had that problem a week ago but the cables are really cheap you can enter service mode without that but you need the power eject combo to downgrade
