Mine match, but it's getting late here so I think I'll definitely wait until the morning.

So maybe there's still some hope. I'm keeping the fingers crossed for you man.DoctorWho said:You can "brick" both a PSP and an iPhone, yet there are ways to restore them if you know what you're doing. If it gives YLOD, I'm not sure what can be done though.

CFW generated also checks the md5 correctly.
That is why i said dont update. Seems to be random bricks. CFW russian roulette

I took that to mean that he had patched a confirmed 3.55 PUP and is verifying that it's got the right MD5 but I don't think he specified whether he upgraded from 3.41 or 3.55jb or whatever...JaseC said:

What? That's idiotic, you shouldn't mess with shit like that.iNvidious01 said:apparently the guy who made this messed with lvl2 to make it accept a bigger payload, this is why random consoles are killing themselves. lesson = let the guinea pigs go first
EDIT: dont even bother with this update, ever. wait for something else as this is fucked

Im not a fan of the way Flukes has put this stuff out there, there are going to be a lot of Pups floating around with the potential to brick systems.
I would suggest everyone to be careful which CFW's they use. (in the next few days)
xtop said:why do we even need waninkoko's firmware anyways? i thought with the tools that flukes was releasing, that dev's could get their backup managers to work with geohot's firmware? or am i completely off base here

test_account said:The console gets bricked, is it just to hold down the power button on the PS3 to get into recovery mode to fix it, or is it bricked "forever"?

Ok, that has to suck :\ Its not possible to even go into factory mode and fix it if you have one of those downgrade dongles? Or perhaps PS3 firmware 3.55 doesnt support firmware downgrades?itxaka said:foreveralonebricked
Anyone knows where are the diagrams to do a nor flasher for the ps3? I guess that I'll try that as I won't buy another ps3 for a long time xD

Consoles that seem to brick are the CHECH04 models like mine. WTF, from all the models out there xD

Possible unbrick for you? Have a dongle?
SuicideUZI said:It seems like geohot is being sued for nothing because assuming in a months or even a weeks time they get a reliable CFW with backup manager support no one will even be using geohot CFW anymore, and his never actually allowed backups to begin with
Ah ok, hopefully there is a way to restore the PS3 firmware without having to buy a new one or get it repaired (if it cost money).itxaka said:There is some files out there to downgrade 3.55 but I haven't tried them. I'm still looking and how to made a downgrader usb jig xD
But I don't think it will work, as the console breaks in half a second so it doesn't load shit. Worst part? My Top Spin 3 disc is in the BD unit! Fuuuuuuu
I guess that I'll check if I still got guarantee and sent it to sony to see what they say. If they repair it for 150 I guess I'll bite.
Didnt Geohot mainly got sued for leaking the PS3 decryption keys, and not mainly because of his custom firmware? I havnt really checked too much into for what reasons he got sued for, so i am just wondering =)SuicideUZI said:It seems like geohot is being sued for nothing because assuming in a months or even a weeks time they get a reliable CFW with backup manager support no one will even be using geohot CFW anymore, and his never actually allowed backups to begin with

I've got a 60 so there is NO chance that I'll be upgrading until this get worked out but has anyone here managed to upgrade their BC capable ps3s?
Yep, mine is one of those.Dani said:If you have the following PS3 units, do not upgrade (check serials):
Phat CECHG04 40GB
Phat CECHG03 40GB
Phat CECHC03 60GB
Phat CHECH04 60GB
This seems to be an issue with PAL 40/60 fattie units.
Mine's a JP NTSC 60GB. I'm still holding off until the reasons for the bricks emerge, though.Dani said:If you have the following PS3 units, do not upgrade (check serials):

This seems to be an issue with PAL 40/60GB fattie units. So if you have a fattie 40/60GB do not use the new CFW 3.55!

If you still have some popcorn left, here's what went down between Mathieulh and Waninkoko (hackinblack) on Twitter:-ScrabbleBanshee said:I'm not doing anything to my PS3 until there is some killer homebrew app like XBMC available, but this whole thing is very exciting to popcorn at. My hats off to you brave guinea...pioneers, without you, a safe and stable mod wouldn't be possible.
@hackinblack maybe there was a reason flukes1 didn't release a PUP. Maybe there was a reason none of us messed with the coreos...
@hackinblack Now let's see how many noobs will brick their ps3s updating to "your" firmware....
@Mathieulh Of course I'm not using flukes1 tools.
@hackinblack I somewhat have a hard time believing that, besides even if you were not, patching lv2 for backups is STUPID and DANGEROUS.
@hackinblack There is a reason everyone says not to do it and no one (but you) is doing it. And trust me, it has nothing to do with skills..
@Mathieulh Then it's time for me to push MY tools to github.
@hackinblack So maybe you are using your tool but that doesn't change neither the risks, not the pointlessness.
@Mathieulh I'm not saying that my tools are better or the risks using my tools are lower... I already know I made a huge mistake.
@hackinblack I am glad you admit that xD
