I defeated!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So went to reflash a new id to a ps3 but during the process my ps3 got stuck in the 999 downgrader.
Everytime I try to update I get either an error 8002f167 or 8002f224. the data is corrupted..
Things ive tried
1. Tried toggle qa then use the v3.7
2. Tried debug settings system update debug on
3. 3.55 ofw
4. Kmeaw
5. rebug999 downgrader
6. OFW over the internet to go back to regular firmware 4.66
7. Tried every single update via the safe mode recovery menu
8 Reflashing the patched file
9. Reforrmatting the hdd and reflashing the original dump file back to unit but that didn't work out too well for me either. Gave me the ylod which I knew it would so soldering the sbc to tristate n reflashing the backup patched nor again
And now the stupid thing wont even take the 999 downgrader
Im seriously laughing my ass off cus well the only thing else I could do is throw the ps3 across the room lol

You can try to install directly a 4.66 cfw and after that you can use the 999 downgrader. That will probably work good luck man

When you put back your ps3 together make sure that your bd drive was correctly installed some errors occur because the clip of the bd drive is not in flush. Recheck that.

Did you take the disc out (No Disc) when trying to update and make sure the usb is in the right side port on your ps3.
