French site PS3GEN has reported that PS3 Developer RichDevX, is working on a payload, to get the PS3 into Service Mode,here is a translated quote from the source:

As shown in this first image, we can see the red box on the XMB showing that the console actually went into service mode. In this mode, it is possible to run specific software, including one allowing the domwgrade (the opposite of update, ie back to a previous firmware). Who says so says downgrade opportunity to go 3.15 for the benefit of new and more otheros hack with PSGroove.

Payload through this, it is also possible to run each time you start the console, loading a file. Self from a USB key as explained above. This could allow the hack using only one time a dongle or other, then your USB stick could complete the task alone. Advances in the underground world push the limits even further, watch this.

What if theres a secret code

Like Eject eject eject off on eject

That was just random but there may be secret codes like the ones for your phone

As well as a LOT more.

This is infact useless to anyone with the 3.50 update. I just tried it myself and it failed. >:/ What i did was download the 3.41 update, put it in a file called "UPDATE" then put that in a file called "PS3". This allows the PS3 to register it. Then I put it on my jump drive and put it in my PS3. To get in service mode, turn your PS3 off. Then hold the power button down untill it turns on and off again. Then press and hold it again, you should hear a beep, then two consecutive beeps. After those you let go and press the PS button. Then go to System Update and it will ask for 3.50 or higher, and it can tell the difference. :/ If anyone can get this figured out it would be very much appreciated. Smile

It is in no way claimed to be useful to 3.50 users.

Thats recovery mode, NOT service mode.
