but what should I be looking for to downgrade? Nothing at this moment, you're pretty much fucked with CECH-3001a console.

You cannot downgrader nor jailbreak it. The only solution is to buy a cobra-ode, but then again you have to solder. Then again, you wanna mod so you need to downgrade in order to convert you cex to dex.

Either sell your shit and buy a ps3 that is jailbroken or buy a ps3 that is able to be downgraded.

Yeah, just read that online that I'm fucked, I'm about to go down to every knock-off video game store in town and ask to see the back of the consoles... Might I ask what a "Cobra-ode" is? And yeah I'll be DEXing so... And I could LEARN to solder, just not very good. I could have my dad or friend do it for me if needed...

Cobra-ode:

It lets you run homebrew apps and ISO back-ups

Sooooo, basically I'd better start looking for a 3.55 and a job? No way in hell I'm going through all that.

YUP!!!!!!!
Or you can buy a Ps3 that can be able to be downgraded and jailbroken.

Yeah, seems like a lot of work just to run homebrew and ISOs
