So i came across over a few ps3 systems. I bought 7 slim 320gb 24xx and 25xx for around 73$ here in Sweden... but only 2 have this wierd problem. One of them had picture and everything. But after i downgraded it then no picture on then screen is coming or sound is coming from it. Tried everything and i really mean everything. It gets power and it has to green but no picture or sound.

Then secound one is a bit better but the controller wont sync at all? Tried pressning reset Button and all that stuff but still it wont work? Both USB port looks good and non of them is syncing.

Any help out there that could help me a bit ?

When you flash a bad backup to the console, and then shut it off and try to turn it back on, you will receive GLOD. This is fixable by flashing a good backup (if you have one) to the console.


As for the second, try booting the ps3 into recovery mode and selecting options "rebuild database" and "restore file system".
This will attempt to fix simple issues that the console may be having.

when i made a backup everything was green. no error no nothing. i did dubbel check everything to.

i cant go into recovery menu by holding the power button.
When i press it down nothing happends. It only shuts down after 10 secounds. i tried multiple times but the same thing is happening.

It can show green sometimes without actually being good, that's why it is best to make multiple backups and assure that it is perfect every single time before you decide to flash.

This could also be glod from a failed/failing RSX chip, but being as it was right after a flash, I'd lean more on it being a bad flash..



The second ps3, will it run and boot to the XMB, or no?

Oh so what should i do with it?

Then secound one is booting up but when i Mount my controller it wont charge at all. I cant sync it with then console. Then only thing thst happends is that then 4 red light on then kontroller is flashing.

Well, you will have to decide which is the problem. Both (bad flash/GLOD) are fatal so you really have nothing to lose.. You can try to first flash a good backup (if you have one) to the ps3, and if that doesn't fix the problem, then you could have bad backups. If it is not a bad flash causing it, then the ps3 has a failing or weak GPU, in which case the console will need a reflow, a reball or to be replaced. Although, I can almost guarantee you have written a bad flash if you received the GLOD right after restarting after flashing.



For the second ps3, boot into recovery mode and try options "rebuild database" and "restore file system". Let us know if it helps or not.

I cant get into recovery mode by holding power Burton down. Already tried it.

When im holding then Burton down it obly shut off itself

I'm not trying to question your knowledge. I only do not know how much you know and just trying to help.

Are you doing it correctly?

1. Turn on the console
2. Hold the power button and shut it off
3. Press and hold the power button, it will turn on with a beep, then beep once again, then you will hear two beeps, in which case you should let go of the power button

You should then be greeted with the recovery menu.

I actually have one doing the exact same thing and i know what he means. It comes on stays green and wont turn off but when u do what your saying it only beeps once and turns system off. Does not go any further, and will not go into recovery mode.

It dosnt work. Then only thing thats happening is that its shutting down
