87w ago - Following news of Sony's new
PS3 Firmware 3.72, today the
E3 Team have made available a demo video of the PS3 E3 Flasher with PS3 Firmware 3.72 and 3.55 Firmware running in dual-boot mode on a PlayStation 3 console.
To quote: BIG NEWS FROM E3 TEAM
E3 FLASHER , downgrade 3.72 to 3.55 successfully! Dual-boot v3.72 and v3.55 successfully! With E3 FLASHER, all is so easy, just switch and works!
And another BIG news is E3 will provide NOR FLASH CLIP free in our 3K limited version! So all Slim models now supported and versions of FAT consoles with NOR and no need to solder anything for downgrading, or dual-boot!
NAND FLASH CLIP also fininshed, will be available in the new up-coming E3 FLASHER NAND version.
E3 Flasher shipping date will be with little delay because of adding extra NOR clip. We will inform shipping date in next few days, sorry to bring inconvenience for our E3 pre-orders.
Translation needs a bit more work (I know it's Google Translate's best Boss
The Fat 256mb NAND PS3's require soldering and doesn't support Dual Boot.
The Fat 16mb NOR PS3's requires some sort of soldering and does support Dual Boot.
The Slim (16mb NOR only) PS3's require soldering in some capacity and does support Dual Boot.
But coming soon:
The Fat 256mb NAND PS3's won't require soldering and will support Dual Boot.
All the NOR PS3's won't require soldering at all.
I hate reiterating the article, but someone will ask the questions lol
I though there was no soldering involved for the slim, oh well.
