Yes, download a retail 3.41 FW and put it on you flash drive (X:/PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP) and install it from the XMB. Don't use the jailbreak for this.
Patience will be my virtue. Okay, so I checked it out; works nice, pretty icons with lots of debug options. I reset it a few times, boot it normally, booted it JB'en. All worked good... UNTIL...
Eventual symptom: RSOD.
~PS3 Slim
~FW 3.41
~Rebugged
Here's what happened, any useful tips (excluding patronizing jabs) are much welcome. Good until:
1) I played Sports Champions (or whatever the name is, with the move controller)... this saves automatically as do many other games, so I'm not sure this had anything to do with it.
2) I kickedass at Table Tennis.
3) I exited the game to the XMB.
4) (PS Eye is still plugged in.)
5) The PS3 cannot boot the XMB. I get the message that says to plug in a controller, re-install FW, etc. (Which I do not do.)
6) I attempt multiple Rebug payloads, then older payloads, to no avail.
7) Finally, I have the brilliant idea to attempt to enter service mode... which works, and the PS3 loads.
8) (This is my stupid choice of the night.) Since all was fine before rebugging, and the de-rebugging instructions I'd read were to simply update FW back to 3.41 from the XMB. So I do. Using 3.41 on a USB.
9) It reaches 100% and reboots.
10) For but an instant the screen boots, saying installing, but before you have a chance to see anything, dun-dun-DUNNNN.... RSOD...
Any ideas, people? Or am I simply just a moron? Any ideas on how to fix, or even insights as to what I might have done incorrectly would be much appreciated.
not at home right now, but pretty sure I tried that, Factory mode is what I was in to do the new FW install, afterwhich it reboots and will not install... i'll make sure I re-attempt factory mode this evening.
There was some issue with the hard drive... all I can think of is that the game I was playing, not in jailbroken mode, altered something on the HD, stopping the rebug pack from being able to boot/run properly.
As the ps3 was in Factory mode last I saw, I assumed it was still, ended up booting with the downgrade package and the original (official) 3.41 FW on USB.
This ended up working... system restored. (to Factory/Service Mode, of course...)
hey, is there is any way to go back because my jailbreak doesn't work?
Yea easy way to go back, just use the system upgrade and downgrade to 3.41 normal. this isn't a 3.55 or anything easy downgrade once your on RETAIL 3.41 again.
