(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Looks like you won't be needing that PS3 firmware downgrader at all. The latest report from Logic-Sunrise is that Team X3, the guys who brought you the X3max dongle, have managed to crack FW 3.50 and are now able to run homebrew without having to backtrack to 3.41. As proof, the team has shown a vid of their latest work in action.

[multipage=Word from Logic-Sunrise]

The video can get a little blurry at times, but here's what Logic-Sunrise had to say about it (translated with Google):

And this is the third major advance in the world of hack Playstation 3: The jailbreak firmware 3.50 the PS3 by Team X3 with X3maxwithout downgrade! After the jailbreak firmware up to 3.41, then downgrade the firmware 3.50, now Team that X3 has managed to run homebrew on official firmware 3.50 without downgrading! The downgrade is also possible.

The announcement is important, and Logic-Sunrise has done well to have bet on this team. 2 big questions:

- Games like Gran Turismo 5 (requires firmware 3.50) work?
- This update is compatible with the X3max? Is it free?

We have that kind of information on LS in a few hours, but the feedback I have from them show a free and compatibility with X3max with an update, but I prefer to have confirmation. Until we have more information, a video of the feat. Knowing the team, comments calling into doubt the hack team by 3.50 X3 will be punishable by banishment to LS.

Looks like if you didnt update, you're in luck. I myself updated, but hey, ill probably get another chance haha. Well post down below what you guys think! :p

I just found this on x3s site.
Vaults Open! [ MASTERKEY ]

[2010/12/13]
Earlier today it was reported that our group discovered the masterkey – I can confirm this. The video released last week was done prematurely and out of excitement. Many of you are pushing for us release our 3.5 solution understandably so. I completely understand the logic that once released it’ll be cloned and truthfully that’s inevitable. At the same time we must do our best to prevent, or at least delay that from happening. Using the PSdowngrade as the most recent example, in just a couple of weeks we’ve seen the DigiKey team port the downgrade to their multiple brands.
Given our dedication to the X3Max it's imperative our solution is secured to the best of out ability before being publicly released
Open! [ MASTERKEY ]



If Im understanding right from this and other sources, the 3.5 downgrader is not available yet (to us anyway). Hopefully very soon. :derp:

Im really kinda mad about the x3. Before I bought I looked at their entire site, on their instruction pages it gave instructions for downgrading using x3Downgrader.bin well thats all good but the file is not available anywhere. What really pissed me off is that they have no way of contacting them through their site to b*tch at them for misleading us into buying their product. I really hate no customer service. >:(
You must login or register to view this content. is a link to their supposed downgrade instructions. BS/facepalm

I sent a bi**h email to the place I bought the X3 from and they gave me an email to the X3 team since the A holes have no contact info on their site. Thought some of you might want it also to rag on them. I sent my thoughts to them.
Their email is:
