Can’t trickshot me!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok, i have downgraded over 60 consoles with the e3 flasher... i did everything right.

After i rebuilt it, it said Connect a controller via usb cable... press the ps Button...
after that it started to install the cfw that i always use to finish the downgrade..

after it hit 20% the ps3 shut off and now the ps3 starts up and cuts off 1 second after...
NOTE: Its not YLOD/ RLOD, it starts up and a sec later it turns off quitely and no beeps.
After Reflashing the NOR backup, it shuts off after 4 seconds...

UPDATE: PS3 Now runs without a shut down, but there is no video or HDD response.

I also found out it had Cod Ghosts in the disc drive, and was wondering if that fucked up the firmware installation... and i want to know if there is a way to install a Firmware using the e3 flasher?

Or get it somehow to recovery mode without a Shut down...

I have already tried:
- Get into Recovery mode( before and after Reflashing Nor)
- hold buttons down at start up for anything to happen,
- Removed the disc from the Disc drive
- Change HDD from the ps3, and tried running without one.

Please help me :( help will be greatly appreciated

In most tutorials they do state NOT to leave any discs in the drive as this can screw up the process.. Sorry I can't help though

No I'm saying take out the E3 clip and make sure the console is working then re-downgrade.

Can you get into recovery mode after reflashing?
Hmmm, I would reflash again your PATCHED bkpps3.bin again with flashfun, meaning having the wire from GND to NOR TRISTATE connected. Once that is done, I would continue with the installing the CFW and format the HDD if anything.

If not, the reflash your ORIGINAL bkpps3.bin and see if it starts working?

Also, is the FAN working?
is there Thermal paste on the chips?
