The Tutorial:

PC


1. Download the files that i have listed up.
2. Find the rockbox.ipod for your device and drag it to your desktop
3. Connect your iPod to the PC (remember your iPod has to be in Disc Mode, you can get him easily in disc mod my pressing Menu and the select buttom, now when you get the black screen, fast press the select and play buttom.
4. After you have connected your ipod to the PC open rockbox on ur iPod. now there should be a file called rockbox.ipod, now drag the file from before in the rockbox folder, press on overwrite and now you are done.
5. After you have downloaded the lvl2diag.self files and the modified 3.41 pup file, drag the 3.41 pup file into ur flash drive (ur flash drive has to be formatted as FAT32). now there are 2 lvl2diaf.self files, we will take the 1st file and drag that lvl2diag.self into your flash drive. Now you are done and u can plug ur flash drive out of ur iPod.

PS3


5. Now we are at the PS3. Turn your PS3 totally off (Press the Off buttom on fat ps3 and plug the power cable out of ur slim) Insert your iPod and now turn your ps3 on. Now you will have to be quick, reboot your iPod (Menu + Select buttom) and after u get a black screen on ur iPod quickly press Power and Eject on ur ps3.
6. Now it will take a while till ur ps3 is turned on. (if ur ps3 turns off after u have rebooted ur ipod just plug the ipod out of the ps3 and turn the ps3 on like normal)
7. Now you are in service mode =D
8. Turn ur ps3 off like normal. Now plug the Flash Drive from before into ur Ps3, turn the PS3 on, now this will take a while till ur ps3 is turned on.
9. Now you are on Firmware 3.41 and you have 3/4 of the Downgrading done.

PC


10.Insert you USB back into your computer, and open it in windows explorer. You will now see 3 files opposed to the 2 you had earlier. The new one is a log of the downgrades progress. Delete all of these files, and copy the lvl2diag.self file from the FILE 2 folder onto your Flash Drive, and remove it again

11. Go to ur PS3, plug ur flash drive into it and turn the ps3 on, now the factory mode is gone and you can finally jailbreak your ps3 :y:

12. YOU HAVE FINALLY DOWNGRADED YOUR PS3, HAVE FUN =D
