I don't know if it works either, but do you want to buy a dongle or another ps3?

That made my morning. Arriba, E3 card readers aren't expensive. They're only about $10?

When you're bricked can you boot up recovery mode? Never happened to me before. =/

[18:15:32] <@Mathieulh> but from my analysis, he just overlapped a segment
[18:15:35] <@Mathieulh> with his dummy data
[18:15:43] <@Mathieulh> and get lv2 to crash as soon as it jumps there
[18:15:55] <@Mathieulh> of course some function must jump there for some reason
[18:16:00] <@Mathieulh> but I dunno which that is
[18:16:12] <@Mathieulh> that's proabably what's causing it to be so random
[18:16:35] <@Mathieulh> if your ps3 calls that function upon startup, you are screwed xD
[18:17:16] <@Mathieulh> of course for waninkoko his lv2 is perfect and without fail eh ? xD
[18:17:21] <@Mathieulh> or so he said on twitter xD
[18:17:55] <@Mathieulh> I'd have to check again but I am pretty sure he messed with the segment boundaries and that caused it (along with his lame patches)

[18:19:14] <@phiren> are you saying that all ps3s currently running wanky's firmware will eventually brick itself?

[18:20:16] <@megazig> he did include a timebomb, yes

[18:20:26] <@megazig> I'd remove change fw asap

[18:23:15] <@Mathieulh> eussNL he probably got a fancy function to jump to his dummy code
[18:23:32] <@Mathieulh> I bet you can probably get those dead consoles to boot if it's a race condition or the like XD
[18:23:44] <@Mathieulh> after trying to boot them for a few hundreds/thousands times xD
[18:24:24] <@Mathieulh> though until we find the function that ****s up, this is just theorethical xD

No I cannot. It turns on the bleeps and shows YLOD for a snecond and starts to flash red.
