The Ultimate Idiots Guide: Ps3 hardware downgrading

[gDrive]

major issue found with the dehashing part. i have ammended it (the way i had put it gave you a rlod if you changed f/w
i have just updated to rebug and now i have rlod. so i know my info was wrong
the tut is now safe to follow

--------------------------------it did say-------------------------------
delete the “UPDATER_LOG” then put the usb stick back in and let it install again. When it turns off check the “UPDATER_LOG” again (it should say at the bottom “0x83manufacturing updating SUCCESS(0x8002f000)”)

--------------------------------it now says-------------------------------
delete the “UPDATER_LOG” and "PS3UPDAT" put in the official 3.55 firmware " PS3UPDAT" then put the usb stick back in and let it install again. When it turns off check the “UPDATER_LOG” again (it should say at the bottom “0x83manufacturing updating SUCCESS(0x8002f000)”)

sorry about that.

FIRST POST MAJOR UPDATE

Added @DEFAULTDNB 's PPC+ MD5 & DATE CHECK TOOL (DCT)
Remarry drive has been completely re-done
All files are included (linked to my skydrive instead of github)
All hash checks for the files are included
MD5 check tool is included
NOW STOP GOING ONTO #ps3downgrade AND SAYING THESE FILES DONT MATCH THE WIKI HASHES. THEY ALWAYS HAVE!!
IF THEY DONT MATCH FOR YOU THEN ITS A CORRUPT DOWNLOAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cleaned up the post and moved the "recycle your old flasher" to a new thread in the buy / sell section on ps3 hax.
Removed the individual links to the trusted downgrader own pages and added a link to @GregoryRasputin 's trusted downgraders thread.
There are more people listed there and it keeps this guide less cluttered
Added links for the upcoming TEENSY++ 2.0 NANDway & InFeCtuS guides
