When I first got to the motherboard, I connected a cable from the tristate to the GND (ground), but it didn't work. I checked soldering and it looks good. Then i did your trick, I applied thermal paste and put 4 pennies to each cell. I turned the PS3 on and it went full blast. After that I tried...

I will practice my soldering before attempting to fix the PS3. I have never used an E3 flasher, so I will have to be extra careful not breaking anything....

That is my worst fears... The good thing is that I'm almost sure it's a software related issue since I had bricked this PS3 multiple times in the past and taken it to shops to get fixed. When I bricked it the last time which was around 2013 possibly. I decided that one day, I might be able to...

Thank you guys very much!! I have an action plan for now which is great. I will post whatever happens to me as soon as I start working on this puppy!

You are absolutely right, I only sent the report dump. I had removed sensitive info according to my knowledge from the report. I'm not sure if it has other info though.

I have a quick question, is it possible to update the E3 flasher while my PS3 is bricked by soldering between the TRISTAR and the GND?

I agree with you. This is my first time working on the PS3 hardware. I'm not sure If I will regret my life for doing this. I think I should give it a shot, I have always loved that one day, I will be able to fix this PS3 :D

hmmm I started looking for old footage of my bricked PS3, because believe it or not, this is not the first time it got bricked... I used to take it to a shop that used to fix it. I'm not sure If I should swap out the PSU to another one just to check. I'm sure though that I bricked my ps3 by...

Luckily, I found a dump that I made years ago. I will post it here. Dump: https://easyupload.io/n2atss I think I made that backup before I went to DEX.

Hello, I have a CECH-250-4B that was jailbroken. However, years ago, it was bricked. I bought an E3 flasher and soldering kit. Unfortunately, I don't remember how to got bricked, possiblly going CEX to DEX or reverse. I don't have a dump. Video...
