(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); hi, im downgrading a ps3 the ps3 isnt actually mine its a friends, i only have 1 bios dump, this dump comes up with everything okay in NOR inepector, but in the PS3 Flash tool there is 2 errors, i also checked this dump in BWE and shown 1 error, the ps3 is bricked and i do not know where to turn,

the ps3 is a CECH-2503a i check the factory firmware and it is 3.40, could someone possibly take a look at my dump?, really stuck here,

when i dumped the clip was properly on both ends the e3 flasher and the nor chip, i used a few tips while putting it on, like sanding down the corner to miss the resistor and a couple of pennys with tape, i check round the nor chip and i could not see any prongs showing, when i dumped the file, i patched the file and went to flash the ps3, soon as i hit start the e3 started flashing i could not turn the ps3 off by the power button, so i unplugged from the back, turned it on and i got nothing, but i looked at some unbricking forums and i soldered a wire to 2 points on the mother board which allows me to turn the ps3 on, i tried reflashing but i got nothing.

PLEASE HELP, MUCH LOVE<3

yeah i did use the 3.55 tool i think it was the first light then the 3rd and 4th flashign

There are some issue with the 4.55 tool bro
You need to open it up and then press Ctrl+F12 together and a little menu should pop up
Uncheck "Enable Hash Checks" and then try again to see if you get the "BAD" again

Most likely you need to add more pressure on the clip. What is the model number of the ps3?

right iv just tried reflashing,, the first light is flashing, 2 3 & 4 are not, then the rest are, what does this mean?, and the model number is cech-2503a

Be more specific!!!
Which lights bro are flashing or blinking!

on the 0 - 100 % the lightd that were flashing was 1, 5, 6, 7 & 8, iv just looked at a solder tutorial, im good a soldering i think im gunna go for that so it has a good connection, what do you think to that?

up to you brahh
But that 1 5 6 7 8 error is because the clip is not making good contact with the chip
Do you have the Ps3 open up like in my video



If so just add some little bit of cardboard pieces in between the fan and chip
Or some coins
this will add more pressure onto the clip bro

that is the tutorial i followed, and yeah my ps3 is out like that, i think im just going to solder tbh bro, then i know iv got a decent connection and can get the job done
