At least I can fight
Hello Guys
Wanted to post this as i see a lot of people bricking with this cfw and would like to help others who are thinking about it.So here:
1.First download the official 3.55 pup and flash it through recovery mode.(for recovery mode see google)
2.Then either download waninkokos patch and patch an official 3.55 pup or download a prepatched pup.
3.After that place the waninkoko pup on your usb following these directories X:/PS3/UPDATE/YOURPUPHERE.PUP
4.Then re-update using recovery menu and you will be fine.
These firmware accepts also 3.41 signed pkgs!!
AND AGAIN DONT FLASH ON 256MB NAND CONSOLES OR YOU WILL BRICK
For any questions ask me.

You wont need it in recovery mode. I did my brothers 80GB Phat without any issues. Went from 3.55 OFW to Geohotz CFW to Waninkoko's CFW. All went smoothly. Although still look up your model to make sure it won't brick obviously.
Ok thanks so i dont need to install the ofw first coz Im on geohots FW atm. And thanks marios50, but I dont know if i should do it with or without the recovery mode method

That's up to you. I found it not needed so like I stated before it's at your own risk. Good luck. You will be happy when it's all set and done
