(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello Members Of NGU, I am in need of some help with my ps3 & e3 flasher. Today I was attempting to downgrade my slim ps3 4.60 (CECH-2001). I Had Successfully Gotten 3 dumps from the nor chip, went on pc opened nor inspector everything looked good(all green). Then I took one of my backups and patched it with Habib 4.60 dump patcher. After that I set the correct lights on the e3 to allow the dump to be transferred. Transfer took about 10-15 minutes before completing. After that I turned my ps3 & off and when I turned it back on I was greeted with the ylod... I have just changed the thermal paste to see if that was the problem because the paste was awfully dry, but it was not the problem. I am looking for somebody with skills of a e3 flasher to help me out here. Thanks

make sure the 4 screws you use to screw 2 plates with are not to tight because if you screw the 2 plates to tight it will result in a YLOD... just try to loosen them a bit if they are to tight

I don't think that was the problem still ylod, but thanks for trying to help

sorry to hear it did not work, it did for me when i had it, i once fixed it by taking the whole console apart and rebuild it again that worked for me.. hope it does for you.. you can consider to try this

make sure that your dump is byte reversed when flashing back. open it in HxD and search for "saceru_eoldare" without the quotation marks. if it doesn't find it, download FlowRebuilder from somewhere, and byte reverse it. Hopefully this helps

Im not sure what byte revered means but I did find the saceru_eoldare in my patched dump.

ok, so it is byte reversed so e3 flasher should be able to handle that. did your fan get really loud at all?

No fan does not get loud, both chips have arctic silver 5 paste on them also. How can I put my original bios back into the ps3, is it with flash fun? Ps3 Only stays on for a few seconds.

you will need to ground the tristate by soldering a cable onto the motherboard. don't worry, it is not very hard. look at this image: You must login or register to view this content. and solder the 'GP2 (NOR_TRISTATE) to any GND point, hopefully this makes it stay on. i think it is also possible to just hold a cable to connect the two points, but soldering is definitely the better option

Success! The system stays on but how do i put my orginal bios back in? (I have it on my sd card in my e3 already)
