So now you have everything.

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

----------------------------------------------------------

Do a barrel roll!
IN ORDER TO JB WITH ROCKBOX YOU NEED TO HAVE A PAYLOAD COMPILED SPECIFICALLY FOR YOUR DEVICE.


this link below tells you how to compile your own for your device. I have no time on my hands atm or I would try this.

Anyone have a compiled file for the iPod Video (5G)? And if not, how long would it take for me to compile one?

Yes you're right the tut is very hard to understand. The creator claims the directions are as easy as pie to follow, yet no one can get it to work.

The creator even was nice enough to compile an ipod video 5thgen for us. But even with the compiled file we finally need things still aren't working.

go here to get rockbox_ipodvideo5g_jig_auth.7z

like I said though...we need a complete step by step tutorial to get this to work.

I'm eagerly awaiting a compile/tutorial for nano 1g Happy hate to be a leacher but there's no point in risking bricking my PS so I may aswell leave it to those who know what they are doing. So may goes respect to them.

No he was saying that the tutorial to create your own compiled version is very hard to follow. And there is only a compiled version available for the ipod 5th gen (video I think). So if you have any other device you need to wait until someone very clever compiles a version for that Smile

Oh, okay. I have an iPod Video (5th gen) so I'll give it a try.
