Department (there are 2 levels of QA flags, Minimum and Advanced). In short it could lead to a complete open PS3…and yes all the CFW, homebrew and backup manager your little heart desires.You must login or register to view this content.
Well the method of how to “QA flag” your PS3 was never posted/revealed but since then plenty of hints have been given in attempts for the “scene”, and one of the first steps was to figure out the secret button combo. Well after weeks of people trying and moaning, the man behind the emulators – squarepusher 2 has released/posted information on exactly what that button combo was. Noobs do not try this – the guide below is still a work in progress and QA flag button combo is the icing on the cake.
How to QA Flag your PS3, the button combo:
1. Be on 3.55 OFW (no rebug): You must login or register to view this content.
2.Move the PS3 cursor/select “Network Setting“
3.Punch the following button combo with your PS3 controller: L2 + L1 + R1 + R2 + L3 + D-pad Dow
4. Thats it, the “Edy Viewer”, “Debug Settings”, “Install Package” Menu will now appear.
Notes and disclaimers:
Install Package is useless and can’t install homebrew at the moment – only signed PKGs (and the first one in root of USB only).
This is not all that is needed to QA flag your PS3, but its a big start for the community – we still need all the pieces to fully QA flag the PS3 and its the scenes job to “figure out the rest”.

You what? The downfall? It's all still very much possible, no matter how much you over-exaggerate the situation :carling:

(TRIANGLE)

Two-R2
L2
HOLD DOWN
That's impossible. There is no left or right during input or the XMB would shift right or left. XMB is still responsive proof being the fact that the XMB does shift up during the sequence.
Where did you get this from? Randomly guessing?
