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”.

Where did you get this from? Randomly guessing?

nope i done some research and found that sequence i carn't remember were from tho :\
and by a couple of videos ive seen it looks possible to me so i was just wondering it would be good if someone could still test it tho

Maggbot timeout!
Honestly, i see & understand what you mean. But this is 'teasing'. It's like showing a kid a cookie! xD but seriously it's like showing them the cookie and saying but im not going to give it to you. or showing a peice of gum to a friend and saying look, you can't have this. You have therefore attracted attention to yourself because of a pointless statement but this could give people the ambition of finding this themselves. But honestly, If you have the key to happiness, ur not gonna enjoy it by yourself. (the QA Flag being happiness o.O and yourself being Mathieulh)
