Although I'm rather paranoid about getting banned in the future, I am taking the usual basic precautions such as using PS NINJA and not launching home brew after signing in, however as I understand there is still a high chance I will be banned at some point,. So I have a few questions I would like some answers to, if anyone can help that would be great.
1. If I get banned and purchase a new CID, will I need to input/load this CID every time I start my console or will it permanently over right what would be my old banned CID?
2. Will their be a point when new CID's dry up and purchasing a new one will become very hard? And if so when do you think we will reach this point?
3. And last but certainly not least. I also have in my possession a old fat PS3 that I fixed from YLOD but now the fan runs VERY VERY loud and I know it's always just a temporary fix anyway, so could I take this consoles CID before it dies again and just store it somewhere for when my CID gets banned? And if so how would I go about this?
I realise this is a lot of questions and any reply will not be a quick reply. But I would really appreciate it if I could get some answers. Thanks in advance Glitch.
1. Depending on the CFW that you have you can just input the new CID once and it will always load up, or you can use CCAPI to boot it at start up.
2. Depends, but the sells of CID's in this forum is not allowed. Maybe google search.
3. You can get the CID by flashing the PS3, with an E3 Fflasher. then get the CID from there.
