Just double checked the page... it was this one:

Thank you Berion. I learnt quite a lot yesterday... I started from the basics as I didn't even know that the CFW was installed in the flash memory.
Got it working at the end by installing a CFW in the new HDD2, following this guide as all other sites seemed down:
*...
Hi guys,
I got a PS3 slim with a CFW on it. I don't know much about what it had, I think it was a Rebug CFW 4.82 with many tools and all was working fine on HDD1.
Today I got a larger HDD2 and I was trying to upgrade it. What I did so far was:
* format HDD2 on PC
* put HDD2 on PS3
* update...
Hi guys, I recently got a PS3 CFW and I've tried a few shooting games which do not have in-game options to configure the Y-axis so that if you press up the cursor will go up at the moment.
I cannot control the cursor like that, so I was trying to find any setting in the PS3 system settings to...
And checking the compatibility chart of that readme, it seems a lot of options are just for DEX consoles with DEX Eboots, which I think I don't have at the moment. No clue how to change from my CEX console to a DEX one either or how to get the DEX Eboot of those games.
I'll try to find...
Thanks, I'll have a look.
I've never installed any plugin just yet, would you recommend one method being better over the other (in their readme file)?
1- Method 1: Running XPAD with PRX Loader or Cobra boot_plugins + Button Combo
2- Method 2: Using webMAN-MOD Plugin

I have been trying the CFW method for a while. My console is getting frozen when I click on 'Patch NOR Flash Memory'. I've tried connecting to http://**ps3xploit.com >Domain no Longer owned by team** (ps3xploit.me =new)/dumper/index_nor.html or self-hosting the files and connecting locally, but in 3 cases in each method the console just freezes and I...
Ah, I see. I thought PS3Xploit v3.0 (HAN) could be used by PS3 25XX as well, and as it was a later version it would offer what CFW can offer plus more stuff. If that's not the case, I'll forget about HAN for now (it seems more complex to follow).
And If I can install CFW directly then, do you...
Hi,
Pretty basic question but I'm getting confused. I've got a PS3 slim 2503 (date code 0C) in 4.82 OFW and by reading about it, this model should be compatible with this instructions to change to 4.82 CFW: PS3 4.82 CFW Installation Guide for Dummies (NOR_NAND_writer_release_1.0_PS3Xploit.zip)...
Sorry, further update.... managed to sort it out.
The main problem in my case was the software, SwitchSD2Vita.VPK. Somehow with that installed, even if not used (as in, if I was booting up directly in the PSTV internal memory), it was not recognising when an external USB device was plugged in...
Hi guys, I retried quite a lot of combinations now and:
* The issue I was having with the 1GB USB stick seems to be related to that item only. I bought another USB stick and that one is recognised now.
* I'm having problems with a 250GB Sata HDD though, which is not recognised when plugged in...
Is there anything specific one needs to check in order to assure compatibility?
I've tried 1 USB drive of 1GB, formatted as exFAT, which is MBR. Light flashes, but PSTV still says - Please attach a USB.
Any idea why this could be failing? I want to buy something bigger, but not sure what I'll...
