Can someone be the savior of my CFW? 4.21Rogero partial brick help...
I posted this on another site but I know that there are some very experienced tech guys and devlopers that frequent these forums and wanted to get everyones thoughts..
Model: Slim CECH-20x
I had recently updated to 4.21 Rogero and everything seemed to be going fine until games started loading slower than normal and the xmb seemed to really chug following a cold boot. So I attempted what I have successfully done before and tried to rebuild the database.
So I restarted in recovery and selected rebuild database and the PS3 froze at 0%. So I did a hard reset and when I rebooted, the hard drive data had been corrupted.
At this point, I tried formating via the PS3 which wouldn't work so I pulled the HDD, hooked it up to my computer and manually reformated via windows. Did all the checks, everything looks good with the hard drive now. > Threw it back into my PS3 and tried to run restore PS3 and was prompted to insert firmware 4.21 or greater. I first just tried reflashing 4.21 Rogero but got a 8002F2C5 error. I then went through a few other options and didn't have any success either. (421to355, 3.55Kmeaw, 3.55OFW, and 4.30Rogero)
Anyone have experience with this and have some insight into how I might be able to save my CFW? I am afraid to try and update to 4.31OFW.
Its ok if you have a flasher.
All tho; just remember one thing if you are gonna downgrade, DEHASH your console.
Dont forget that otherwise u gonna brick on ur way to 4.++
