Just gonna create this thread quickly to get some thoughts and tips for what I can do.
Basically I got Habib Cobra 4.55 CFW installed on my PS3 and I installed Ccapi 2.5 homebrew, I started up the homebrew and the PS3 froze. I found out that Ccapi was not compatible with Cobra. Now my PS3 freeze everytime when booting but it still works in safe/recovery mode.
What would you've done at this point?
I'm planning to install Rogero 3.55 downgrader via recovery mode to get back to 3.55 and then install another CFW. I'm pretty sure it will work if not please send me a PM or post before it's to late haha.
Already got a experienced guy that answered some of my questions but some more tips would help.
Thanks! 🤝
Post anything you know, this could be helpful for others since there's barely any talk about this problem on the internet.
What I needed to do:
-Restore my 320gb hard drive to get rid of Ccapi 2.5.
How to restore your hard drive:
-Put it in another PS3 and it will automatically restore.
-Put it in a PS4 and it will automatically restore.
-If you have a ESATA station you can restore your hard drive via PC
My PS3 even froze in safe mode so I could not restore it in my own PS3 Slim. What I did was that I put my broke PS3 hard drive in my PS4 and it made a automatic restore of my PS3 hard drive. I installed everything and got my PS4 setup on my PS3 hard drive then I turned off PS4 and took my PS3 hard drive out and put it back in my PS3 slim and wolla.
Now the PS3 will ask you to update, in my case it said 4.55 or higher since I was on 4.55 Habib Cobra. You CFW is still there and will always be. Install any 4.55 CFW or higher, I installed 4.60 Habib.
Your PS3 is now back up and running.
Noob Q&A:
Q: Will my PS4 hard drive be restored when I put it back in my PS4?
A: No, when you put back your PS4 hard drive in your PS4 everything will be as normal, it will not ask you to reformat.
Q: Will I go back to OFW? Will my Jailbreak/CFW disappear?
A: No it will not as long as you don't update with a OFW update when it as you to update. When it ask you to update simply take any CFW that you want that's 4.55 or higher and install it.
PM me if you got any questions and hope this helped someone. 🤝
