(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So i recently had my ps3 jailbroken. it all went well. did the cex to dex swap thing. that went well. ive modded games and what not for a few months. then i started backing up games to external hard drive. a 1tb hard drive i had my original ps3 bkpps3 files on. i was backing up a game, and my cat knocked my hard drive over. crashed it. and all my files went away. i was mad... now comes to my ps3 problem.. i went to go upgrade my ps3 hard drive to 1tb hard drive. i figured i needed to reflash ps3. but what i did to do so is grabbed a dump from the ps3 with e3 flasher, and patched it.. not checking it for a bad dump.. and flashed it.. now im bricked.. is there any possible way to get a dump and repair it so i can unbrick? i have cech 2501a 160gb model..i think i may have all the per console files good.. idk.. any help? i know how to do the solder to keep it on. and the flash fun to reflash..

use fsm dongle, then put pup on root of usb in right slot. power on at back, press power button quickly followed by eject.

what puzzles me is why did you hardware flash this after replacing the hard disk? could of skipped doing this and saved the trouble.
