Weird, I've never encountered this problem or know of a way to fix it but I'll have a look around and try to find it out.

It might have something to do with video settings being reset on the PS3 during the update, if I remember correctly it says something about holding the power button on the PS3 until it turns off and it will reset it until it works for you, try that a few times and if not look in the PS3 manual if you still have it, you can online copies of the manual on the sony site.

Yeah you extract the .rar file then rename the extracted file to PS3UPDAT.PUP then put it on the USB and make sure it's how it is in the picture.

But in the tutorial he said to put ps3 in safemode (hold down power button till it cuts on then goes back to standby mode and hold it again till you hear two beeps right after each other.) But I couldnt get my ps3 in that mode idk if its cause the firmware it was on before(2.40 or somthing like that) and didn't have at that time. But after I updated via usb to 3.55 OFW when I cut it on it stays black. Do you think its bricked or how I can fix it o_0 ?[/QUOTEh

hey sorry to butt in, but i might know what ur problem might be.. the system probably reseted itseld to default meaning your audiou n video. So if u were running a HDMI output put your normal yellow red white back on n it might work again.. i've gtten that problem 2 times now.. lol if ur doing a OFW no need to put it on safe mode.. do it straight from ur XMB BAR... hope that HELPS AND GOOD LUCK... :angel:

Just going to come in here, its ether your HDMI/AV settings have reset. You can fix that by hard booting the PS3. Also though if there no beeping or anything, is everything normal just no screen is shown?

Hmm, don't think its the video cables but Ivan try the hardboot method. Is that holding down the power button till it beeps twice? Ifso then that's not it. I've done that. And yea everything else works. Just no screen I can get it to come on now livery 1 out 30 tries if I'm luckyy.
