2. Rename the file to "PS3UPDAT.PUP" (no quotes)
3. On a fat32 formatted usb flash drive, create a folder named "PS3"
4. Inside the "PS3" folder, create a folder named "UPDATE"
5. Inside the "UPDATE" folder, place the "PS3UPDAT.PUP"

Folder structure should be:

6. Insert the flash drive into the right most port of the ps3.
7. Boot ps3 into recovery and/or select option "update system" and select your flash drive

It is a 3.55 downgrader, should work just fine, just the first steps before installing cfw, and how.

You only need to qa flag once btw. Your console should beep and restart, then install a (most likely CEX) cfw of your choice.
