Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drives on 3.15 & 3.50 FW Without Downgrading

Category: PS3 Hacks & JailBreak  By: PS3 News - (ps3devwiki.com)
Tags: remarry ps3 blu-ray drives remarry ps3 drives ps3 downgrading ps3 fw downgrade

62w ago - Following up on their previous 3.55 release, today the anonymous PlayStation 3 developers have shared details on remarrying PS3 Blu-ray drives on Firmware 3.15 and 3.50 without the need for downgrading the consoles.

Download: Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.15 FW / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.50 FW / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.50 FW (Mirror) / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.55 FW / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.55 FW (Mirror) / Remarry PS3 Blu-ray Drive on 3.55 FW (Mirror)

Changes: Small error fixed, FDM is resigned proper now for all versions (3.15, 3.50, 3.55)

From the included ReadMe files via the PlayStation 3 Developer Wiki (linked above), to quote:

Remarry guide for 3.15 firmware

1. Have the console on a working 3.15 firmware

2. Download the Remarry files (remarry-3.15.rar) and unpack to root of USM Mass Storage device. The following line is already changed from 1 to 0:

     #---------------------------------------------
     # Install Systemsoftware
     #   0 = ??s?????
     #   1 = ??s????
     #----------------------------------------------
     0
This will make sure the drive init PUP is not installed, thus preventing RLOD because of syscon hashes on downgraded consoles.

3. Download official firmware <=3.30 as drive init PUP and put it root of USB Mass Storage device

Content of USB Mass Storage device should be thus be:

MD5: / SHA1: / CRC32: / CRC16:

  • Lv2diag.self C48E5EBFC00ABD89094CB73A2B0BEA59 / D229AC694910272DDEA9276B9FD4A2664800638C / C2D0A2B0 / 5327

  • fdm_spu_module.self BD9B61DBAA0F068C28563C7A0A62F3D5 / 85B4F6DF16A5B643BE67C7AFC55D2E6BF00B7B99 / C95B7E8 / FDD0
  • PS3UPDAT.PUP
  • cfg/standalone.cfg

4. Put the service mode JIG/dongle/PSGrade into port 0 (closest to the reader) and get into factory service mode.

5. Put the created USB Mass Storage device from step 3 into port 0 (closest to the reader) and run.

  • Drive Init Executing means it is starting the remarry process
  • Drive Init Failed with big pink letters 'NG' (No Good!) means the process failed. Most likely solved by fixing the communication issue with the drive.

6. After you run the initial remarry process, do not take it out of factory service mode.

7. Put a BD movie disc in and run it on the PS3. (This restores your DRL files!)

8. Then you can take it out of factory service mode.

9. Launch as normal.

Remarry guide for 3.50 firmware

So my PS3 is saying that I need to update my firmware in order for my bluray encryption to revalidated. If I do these steps listed post #25, will I lose all of my games and features? I currently running Hermes 3.41CFW on a 60gb fat.

Thanks.

The message is simply when you power off using the switch instead of shutting down correctly.

I will add also that I installed Rebug after doing this and it broke it again. It could be due to the LV2 patching, but I will be testing Kmeaw later today and see if it does the same.

As of now, just use the OtherOS++ CFW. It works perfectly with Multiman etc

so is this a 2nd method to marry a BDROM drive from another PS3 to a different PS3 or is this just some way to get video playback working if somehow you loose it ?

Bit confused..
