Does anyone know anyone in Darwin who could downgrade a PS3 from Official Firmware 3.72 to Official Firmware 3.55 on a fat model.

Thanks

I looked at that Skeet board you posted yesterday, about 40 or 60 runs of kynar to various solder points, it'd be easier just to buy a second hand ps3 with old firmware. It'd be a nightmare to solder.

5 SMD solder joins are a PITA let alone more than that for the sake of downgrading.

Ha I pretty much lost it after the first couple of PS2's I did... They sucked and they were only 28 wires.

I'll buy myself one of those Jovy 8500's and stick to reballing, unless I can program it install Stevan's skeet board.
