Are you bored with the standard PS3 bootup sound? Or would like the old one back [pre-3.00fw] Well now you can thanks to Alejandro+ Jaicrab and PS3mrenigma. They have produced an app that allows writing to dev_flash.
Also thanks to Japsander for the idea of the Epic Tune Of Success, and Comgenie for the manager XD

[PART 1]
To get the R/W dev_flash to work, you’ll need a hex enabled with Peek&Poke. Then fire up the app.
You’ll get an message saying “This program enables A Dev_Flash unit with WRITE ACCESS! It is your responsiblity!
If you erase the firmware or make it brick its YOUR FAULT!” etc. Press O to enable the rewritable flash. it will go “……. Success” then it will quit, taking you back to the XMB.
[PART 2]
Fire up Comgenie’s Awesome File Manager
Scroll down to “dev_alejandro/vsh/resource/
untill you see two files one named: coldboot_multi.ac3 and another called coldboot_stereo.ac3.
These two files are what you will need to change, in order to get a custom bootup sound. Dont to anything yet…
[PART 3]
Grab any mp3 you want, be it from a game or whatever it doesnt matter. Load up XivD4PSP.
You will need to trim it to around 8 seconds as it will get cut off. [like in the video] You’ll see Set Start/Set End and apply trim.
Audio encoding AC3 640K
Once that is done, and you are happy with your bootup sound, rename it coldboot_multi.ac3 and then the same file as coldboot_stereo.ac3. Save it, by doing Ctrl+S.
Now, copy the files to a USB stick, you should still be in Comgenie’s Manager.
Select 0000 (far right usb) and press select for the screen to go red. Then press O to copy the two files over, and replace them. Exit to the XMB.
Power off your PS3, with or without your JB, and listen to your new Boot Sound.
