AS LONG AS THE MD5 MATCHES YOU CAN’T BRICK. CHECK THE MD5 WITH WINMD5FREE OR ANY OTHER TOOL. Copy the flsh.hex file to the root of your USB Stick. So if you got a compatible PS3 let’s put a CFW on it 😀įlash_482.hex (DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES RENAME THE FILE!!!)ġ. It will stop at some point and display the minver your PS3 supports. Then just use “Instal Update from Flash Drive” and install the file. You can check your minver version by extracting this file and copying the PS3UPDAT.PUP on a fat32 formatted USB Drive creating a folder called PS3, inside of that creating a folder called UPDATE, and copying the file into the UPDATE Folder.

This Flasher only supports Phat PS3’s and Slim PS3’s up to 25xx that have a minver of 3.56 and lower. In case of an actual brick, you can still recover your PS3 with a Hardware flasher or with the recovery menu if its still accessible but there are few simple tricks minimize the risks. This has been made as safe as possible by the Devs but there is always going to be the possibility of something that could go wrong. This is a really neat piece of software that doesn’t actually flashback a NAND/NOR Dump but writes some CoreOs Data to flash regions ros0 and ros1 to enable compatible PS3’s to directly install CFW on latest Firmware and have all those cool things you always hear about but never have.īut first of all a Disclaimer.

Now, this is where the 4.82 NAND/NOR Flasher comes into play. Now, this is not too interesting for the general user who wants to hack or as many would say Jailbreak their PS3. This means old Phat PS3’s with NAND Flash and Super Slim PS4’s with eMMC can’t be dumped with it. The NOR Dumper can dump every PS3’s Flash with NOR Flash. First, this PS3Xploit was supposed to be released Q1 2018 but it was released as a very early Christmas present for every PS3 owners.
