(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); have a cech 2001B that I went through the whole process of flashing/etc. got everything back together, went to update using 3.55 rogero downgrade tool, And every time it tells me that the update is not supported on this system. I have no clue what I'm doing wrong here...I know the ps3 is jailbreakable.....I know my dumps were all good.....could I have a bad version of the downgrader or something? Literally at my wits end with this....Going to be very angry if I spent all this time disassembling and reassembling this shit....any help would be appreciated

What firmware were you on originally? If for example you were on 4.60 ofw before flashing, just install a 4.60 or 4.65 cfw now, then try the rogero 355 downgrader. If that doesn't work, you could also try rebug's 355 downgrader and I think Habib made one as well.

Im not sure what firmware the system was originally on when I bought it as I never checked. I do know, that before downgrading, I installed a 500GB HDD out of a new super slim(don't know model number) and did a 4.65 update via Playstation USB download. I played the system for a day on 4.65 to make sure it still functioned properly, to which it did. I then parked they system until I had everything required for the downgrade.

Then wen through the whole process of gathering my three dumps, verifying them in NorInspector, then using a 4.65 downgrade tool to patch the profile, to which my E3 flasher said was completed properly(alternating blue flashing LED's). Then put everything back together, and went to update via storage media with Rogero's 3.55 downgrade "updater" At this point I thought I was almost done, then I got the message "This update not supported by this system" or something along those lines.

Only possibilities I can think of are a.) My patched profile didn't actually patch, and just put the original dump back on the system. b.)My Rogero downgrader was faulty and I need a new downgrade tool.

I am a little confused as to what you meant by installing a 4.65 CFW. If the system isn't jailbroken, (which I think may be the case), how could I install a 4.65 CFW? Or am I missing something here? Please keep in mind I am extremely new at this...

Edit: Do you think it might work if I tried from Recovery mode? I just would prefer not to go with Rebug(have heard some bad things). Or should I look for another version of Rogero for the "update?"

problem solved. ran the 3.55 downgrader in recovery mode. worked like a charm
