Did you cancel the update? And I would just not connect it to the internet. I don't anyway. But I hardly use mine.

To stop this, the only way I found was to get and new Harddrive. You do not need to keep the harddrive, just put it in your ps3. It will cancel the update and then you can put in your old harddrive and return the newer one.


Or you can take out the one in you ofw and put it in the cfw.

update loop comes if you have a bad harddrive on your ps3 like bd drive or wifi or else..format your hdd on pc to fat32 and try again..go rocovery menu and install kmeaw again..

I think I forgot a step. Put the 3.55 hdd into your ofw. That should format it

I had this happen one time and I am pretty sure this is what I did.
