Haxor!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi,
Couple of months ago I received YLOD on my phat ps3. That`s why I bought another one - 250GB Slim.
Right before the YLOD, I was able to get a full backup of all my stuff from my old phat console via FTP... so all my acc information, savedata and most importantly GAMEDATA was saved on my computer (+ all dev_blind, dev_flash folders etc ... in other words ... everything except GAMES folder).
I have over 200 songs downloaded from RB3, while the prod_qa method was still working. Tried transfering my user accounts with all exdata and savedata via FTP, also transfered the whole game folder (where the game data is stored) and rebuild database in order for them to show in the new console... it did work till that point .... tried reactPSN to activate my 3-4 games (Dungeon Hunter, Plants vs. Zombies) etc... + all songs for rockband.... but they did not work .... I followed all the steps from tutorials for reactPSN ... had my “aa” acc renamed and had the exdata folder created in my USB with all those .edat and .rap files in it.... but still I wasn`t able to activate them.
BTW ... the new console is on rebug 3.55.2 firmware with 0.4 package installed and my old console is on 3.55.1 …. If this does matter.
So what I did was write in the reactPSN tutorial thread. The starter of the thread there explained, that when doing the rebuild database, it erases the licenses ... and because this is a different console, that`s why they don`t work ... I`m not sure if this is correct (please confirm).
That`s why I brought my console for reballing … gladly now it works … so I have my old console still working, also DLC … but I don`t know till when….
That`s why I decided to upgrade my OLD PHAT console to official firmware in order to play MW3 (witch I`ll buy these days). I don`t want to update the new slim console, because if the other one receives YLOD again, I will be left with only one console with official firmware, witch of course is the worst scenario.
What I`m asking is:
1. If I upgrade my console to 3.73, will I loose all the DLC witch was purchased through prod_qa method?
2. Is it possible to activate my RockBand Songs to my new console by any chance? I don`t really care about my other games that I mentioned earlier, cause the one that I can`t download again is just Dungeon Hunter … I don`t mind loosing just that game… most important is the RockBand DLC?
3. If I mess something with my old console (cause I also want to swap the 500gb HDD,witch I have in it, with her old 60gb or with the new 250gb from the slim) will I be able to activate RockBand DLC using reactPSN to that same console, and how? There are no package files for RockBand DLC … what I can do is the same what I did on the new slim … if I put the old 60gb HDD, then transfer gamedata via FTP, rebuild database … if the rebuilding erases the license, can I still activate the songs using the reactPSN or not ( the difference with what I tried before is that this time it will be on same console).
4. Can I swap two HDD`s formatted by same PS3, without having to format them all the time. I`m talking about the 500gb in my phat ps3 with her old 60gb?
Hope you understood my questions, and can help me …
Thank you so much in advance !!!
