Have you got a CEX and DEX dump if so follow below.

1. Get your CEX dump and rename it to CEX-FLASH.EID0.NORBIN (if it's NOR) or CEX-FLASH.EID0.NANDBIN (if it's NAND) and Get your DEX dump and rename it to DEX-FLASH.EID0.NORBIN (if it's NOR) or DEX-FLASH.EID0.NANDBIN (if it's NAND)

2. Put these 2 files on a USB

3. Then place on USB001 (right slot)

4. If you are going from DEX to CEX, your console MUSTN'T be QA Flagged! or it will result in a semi-brick if it is enabled.

5. Go on Rebug Toolbox, go to the 4th tab along and go to 'Rewrite Target ID in Flash' and hit 'X'

6. Quit game and then turn PS3 off with controller and turn back on and you will be on DEX if you were on CEX or you will be on CEX if you were on DEX

I suggest you update to 3.55 OFW through recovery mode then update to OFW but only do this once you are back to CEX.

You will have to keep CEX that is retail firmware just do what I posted and update to OFW after going to 3.55 CEX.

Personally I would sell/trade the console and buy a OFW PS3 lol but that is just me.
