Just installed CFW and got two errors.

I recently got a PS3 from my brother that came with no hard drive so I put my own in and got it working by updating it in recovery mode and then began following MrMario's tutorial on Youtube only to end up with two errors when I used the PyPs3Checker. Those two errors were cISD1 Semistatic 2 and trvk_pkg1 SCE and I'm not sure what those mean and if I should be worried. Everything seems to have gone well so far but I just wanna make sure nothing is fucked up and if there is something fucked up, I'm hoping I can fix it! I've uploaded the checklog for anyone who can help!

Just to be clear since I can't edit, cISD1 Semistatic 2 was listed as a Danger while trvk_pkg1 SCE was just listed as a warning if that means anything different.

Your CECHE has been refurbished by Sony at the end of 2009 or beginning of 2010, with 3.15 to 3.21 firmware. They probably replaced the mainboard (by a COK-002W ?). It has an exotic cISD1 data not yet recorded in our table.

That's interesting. Could you perform extra tasks per that thread? : https://www.psx-place.com/threads/need-community-help-to-collect-data.20882/
It will help us to better understand.

Thx for the advise :)
Yes is refurbished, the "CISD1 semistatic 2" = 009900990126 matches chronologically with the software versions they was using in the first PS3 slim model CECH-20xx

The warning about trvk_pkg1 with the "SCE" string replaced by 0xFF's is a bit weird btw, have you seen it before ?
I guess sony "nuked" that area officially and the trvk_pkg1 area is completly filled with zeroes after that, right ?

Yes, it was also the case on the CECHE01MG we seen recently. And also the previous one. For some reasons the trvk_pkg1 are totaly blank on those late produced NAND units. That's why I changed those checks from "Danger" to "Warning" in my checker : https://github.com/littlebalup/PyPS3tools/commit/6ffe6d05e8dc7af804235ee1197da900fd798d5a

That's also the case on all the 4k eMMC where trvk_prg1 and trvk_pkg1 are totaly missing.

In add, you can see his trvk_prg0 and 1 are both 2.70 version. Means it has not been updated since the refurbishment. And that's also the case on all the dumps with metldr.2 I seen. The trvk have never been updated since factory, even if the RL_FOR_PROGRAM.img and RL_FOR_PACKAGE.img are always present and updated (at least the version) in the PUP.

So it's a bit misterious. But i can say Sony changed the way to use them at some points.

I'm sorry for taking so long to reply but here is the file you wanted! https://drive.google.com/open?id=1QCMCkzqAPZEaiymnq2Ztd3FhmAG1Jal9 I hope that can help you figure out if something is wrong or not!

Thank you. It confirms at 100% it's refurbished.
Could you provide the console_versions_info.txt file?

I just put the program on the system and did the process but where do I find the text file? It wasn't on my usb drive when I did it and it was in the furthest right usb port. Did I do something wrong or is it just not put on the usb drive?

Interesting, 4.11 recorded in the syscon...

We already know it has been refurbished at the end of 2009 or beginning of 2010, with 3.15 to 3.21 firmware (right between lasts 2k and firsts 2k1 series). It was probably a mainboard replacement.
But with that 4.11 firmware version recorded in the syscon, I'm feeling at least a second Sony aftermarket intervention between February and Jun 2012. Something lighter like power supply or bluray drive replacement.
(I had a CECHH, without refurbishment data in the NOR, butt with 4.25 recorded in the syscon)

Anyway, it has no influences to use a CFW on it. Just keep in mind your console is a bit special... and has been well maintained.

Thanks for all of the help and I'm glad that the things I sent might be able to help whoever else might have this kind of special PS3!

This one was a very special case with 2 visits to the official repair service :D
I never heard (or even thought) before about 2 posible ways to update software in it
The first one (the most important) maybe was because the motherboard was connected to a "jig-pin machine", they can replace lot of ID's and all software with that method, also is connected to the online servers to update things like the IDPS

The other refurbishment maybe was made using a jig-usb for an unbrick

-----------------
But... while writing this im imagining maybe it was taken to repair service only 1 time and happened this:
1) The PS3 is sent to repair service, and it have a big problem not related with the motherboard
2) They sends the PS3 to the refurbishment plant for furter analysis to see which parts can be reused
3) They connects the motherboard to the jig-pin machine to "clone" some ID's and the hdd contents to a refurbished console
4) They sends the refurbished console to the owner (the owner doesnt realizes it have a different motherboard of the same model)
5) The original motherboard is kept at the refurbishment plant waiting for some candidate PS3 to adopt it
6) Two years passed
7) A candidate PS3 enters in the service repair, and they takes the motherboard (updated by the jig-pin machine) and upates it again with the usb-jig

...and that motherboard from step 7 is the one that have @Emeralda in his PS3


...not sure if this theory have some flaw... just speculating and thinking loud :rolleyes:
