Hehe, too bad that you'll probably wait a loot of time.. I think without internal "help" (leaks) from $ony, they can't do much about it. Reverse engineering, and especially software encrypted like PS3 OS, is not a toy.

Hope this leads somewhere..

Hay footylad, I don't know much about test/debug firmware, but you should try putting your ps3 into recovery mode to try to fix it. download firmware 3.01, and on root of hdd of your pc make a folder called PS3 then inside of that folder make one called UPDATE and then put the file in it called PS3UPDATE.PUP (firmware file).

You will need powerISO program to burn it to CD so that you can burn it with the folder setup. In powerISO go to ACTION then go to ADD FOLDER then go to the PS3 and click OK and burn the CD. this video from youtube shows how to use the CD after.

Unfortunatly, I bricked mine at 1.85 Firmware, well before Recovery mode was even coded for....

Someone mentioned capitalization here and it got me questioning. Why DIDN'T they use capitals for Name, Company, etc ? Why did they capitalize the E in "E-mail" ? Have you even read the description ???

"You must send this name of file in your PC to your HQ by E-mail that you will get..."

Whoever coded the GUI sounds just like cfwprophet struggling with English. No offence, man. English isn't my native tongue either. But I'm studying it whenever I get the chance.

Thing is, I really started to wiggle my tail when I saw the combination of "PS3" and "JIG" but soon after reading a few posts I came to my senses... I truly hope this is real and not some Belazar scenario to get our hopes up in vain.
