(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Well my dad updated to 3.60 so he could redownload some pan stuff(i kno i yelled at him) but ive read were you brick your system then emter recovery mode? a few questions.

1) Do you have to brick it first to do recovery mode to downgrade?

2) If so wats the best way to brick your system?

3) Will it delete our saved stuff? or can we do a backup?

4) Can someone verify that this even works?

Thanks in advanced

Yeah but he said in that thread that it stucked on 70% and his ps3 was f*cked up after that.

I dont know if he fixed that yet :carling:
You must wait till there's a cfw or a real good downgrading method.

Keep your system's hard drive, sell the system and buy a new one on 3.55 on eBay or something. Only way back.

Also loads of people seem to have parents, siblings or friends who update their PS3s w/o them knowing; couldn't you put a piece of sticky paper on the PS3 saying "DO NOT UPDATE" or something?? :confused:
