Hello to everyone here,

I got a huge problem,

last week I wachted a video on the internet how I could install a cfw on my ps3. However, I guess this guy told me ***** and the result ?

The Playstation is stucked in the Software Update mode. Even when I put the plug out and turn the playstation 3 on the playstation in still stucked in the Software Update mode.

The custoum firmware which I wanted to install was developed form PS3Xploit Team. A jailbrek for the verison of 4.85.

The huge question right now ist following:

The is the playsation fixable or is right now junk ?

You’ve completely bricked it. I just don’t get how you managed it as the key to jailbreaking consoles is to follow instructions completely by the letter. There are literally thousands of guides out there.

Okay. And there is no option to fix this ?

@AK-89 Well you only have one shot at it. Hold the power button until the console reboots three different times. If it boots into safe mode then you can reinstall official firmware from there. If it doesn’t work, you now have an expensive paperweight.

@AK-89 It’s not that you only have one try, it’s that if it doesn’t work then there are no other options.

Okay good to know. So the what is the first step ? To get in the safe mode ? And the how can I install the orginal firmware ?

@AK-89 Hold down the power button until the system reboots into safe mode, it should take a few minutes and don’t take your finger off the button even if something comes on the screen. Take your finger off when the ‘preparing’ screen appears. Then you should select the option ‘system update’ and hopefully it should install the correct software.

Do not just watch a video next time

follow a guide step by step, and be very careful not to make mistakes.

Was just about to suggest safe mode, hopefully it fixes it for you.

This is why you don't mod systems. I guess you can contact Sony but they will charge you since you tried to mod it.

@Tasuki Not really. It’s why you don’t mod systems unless you’re absolutely certain you know what you’re doing.

R.I.P ... I cant get into the safe mode. But nevertheless, thank you guy's for trying to helping me.

@AK-89 Just to try one more time, make sure the PS3 is turned off, hold down the power button. You should see it try to turn on once, ignore that and continue holding the button. It should then reboot again in safe mode.
