Hello everyone on CCM recently the PS3Xploit Team consisting of
,
& W along with contributions from new team member
have came out with a Software Solution that writes a patch to the CoreOS (on NOR/NAND Chip) and when the PS3 Console is then rebooted you can install a Custom Firmware directly.
So downgrading back to 3.55 is not required in the process, rather "Direct OFW to CFW patching" is done to allow for Custom Firmware Installation. Since this exploit is executed from 4.82 OFW, you can only install to a 4.82 CFW.
HOWEVER if you wish to use an earlier firmware such as REBUG 4.81 for example, once on 4.82 CFW you must TOGGLE QA using a toggle tool, which allows CFW user's to freely switch CFW version from past and present.

- Verify flsh.hex file on a flash drive and in the far right USB slot!
- 4.82 flsh.hex MD5: 8E156C99101BF36EC3EDB832982AE46D
- DO NOT USE ON CFW (Custom Firmware) (Only Supports OFW)
- DO NOT USE ON PS3 Models 3xxx/4xxx (aka SuperSlims / Late Slim models) you will brick those console.
- USE ONLY ON 4.82 OFW
1) Try using a LAN connection or a solid WiFi connection during exploitation. A weak signal can cause problems.
2) If the exploit takes more than 5 minutes to work, reload page, browser, or restart console and try again.
3) If you are using a LAN connection and experience network issues, make sure all cables to router are in working order.

1. Setup a small Web server on pc or smartphone. A custom miniweb application (from:
) with small changes to the JaveScript, and supplied to host files if you would like to use it. Don't come to us for explanations about how to run a http server though. Google it.
2. Extract the files from release to your http server root folder.
3. Copy the "flsh.hex" file from release folder to root of flash drive.
4. Put a FAT32 USB key in port closest to BD Drive (/dev_usb000).
5. DOUBLE-CHECK your flash drive on XMB to make sure it shows up under Music, Photos, Videos, etc.
6. Open the PS3 browser File Address window, write the IP address of your server (and the port if not 80) & press the Start button.
7. Select the appropriate button for your console and wait for PS3 to power down. DO NOT STOP THE PROCESS ONCE STARTED!!
8. Once PS3 has powered down, reboot console and install CFW matching OFW version. If installing through XMB does not work, boot to recovery and install.
