Progskeet NAND adapter without solder

Post by KTH »

Automatically translated from French.

So I'm going to re-hack my PS3 slim which is on 4.31 (which had already been on 3.55).
Since there's no hack method without hardware support for the system, I see myself buying a key.

Looking at some online stores I see "Progskeet solderless NAND adapter" so I'd have a few questions:

- Is that what I need to hack my PS3 Slim MAJ 4.31 Model CECH-2054?
- 25€? Why is it cheaper? Because it's less powerful or breaks more easily?
- In my position what would you recommend for someone who wants to hack their PS3 without spending too much and "easily" (I mean by that without soldering...).
- Since it's "solderless", how does this get installed?

Anyway, thanks for your answers!

What's your ps3's "date code"?
Anyway since it's already been on 3.55, that settles it, it's downgrade compatible.
I'd rather recommend an E3 Flasher. More complete and focused on PS3s
more precisely, an E3 NOR Flasher (~68€) for a simple Downgrade or E3 Flasher Limited (~85€) for a Downgrade and Dualboot compatibility.

there's no soldering because it's a clip-mounting system. Let's say it's relatively safe. Less so than soldering over time when you know very very well how to solder but much safer for a beginner. Even I who does this professionally wouldn't attempt it without very good equipment.

As for the progskeet, it's an all-purpose chip (wii, xbox360, ps3, etc... plenty of other stuff too). What you saw at 25€ is just the clip on top of that you need the chip (~45€) so not really worth it compared to the E3 Flasher especially if it's just to downgrade a ps3.

Watch out though... I see here and there that the downgrade is compatible with the latest official firmware 4.21. It seems to work on the latest one out (4.31 I believe) but that remains to be confirmed

I searched all over to downgrade my PS3 4.31 but I was told I'm forced to buy hardware....
So is there no method these days that allows the downgrade?

If there isn't then...Well I guess I just have to buy the E3 Flasher.
For information, is the E3 Flasher a chip? A USB key? And can it be used on several consoles?

EDIT: Ah I just saw in a photo that it's a chip. lol

EDIT2: I also just thought of the Cobra ODE, it's the equivalent of the E3 Flasher but in USB, I was told it lets you emulate PS2 and PS1.
So same question, can it be installed on several consoles or does it have to stay on our PS3?

I confirm that to downgrade you need hardware.

if you skip the dualboot, the chip can be removed after downgrade.

The ODE is something else. it emulates the blueray drive and mounts isos so no dlc, mod or anything like that unlike the downgrade and the CFW.


I'm not too sure about ps1 and ps2 games. For the ODE logically it should only work on backward compatible ps3s (so only certain fats) there's a good chance it's the same for CFM.

And does the ODE then allow the downgrade and installing the hack on PS3 Slims?
And is there something cheaper than the ODE just to downgrade your PS3? (I mean a USB key).
And also, does the ODE have to stay in the USB port or can it be installed on several PS3s?

PS: Thanks for your answers.
I found the "Cobra USB", my buddy found this:

https://www.pucesconsoles.fr/cobra-usb.html

So does this key (which is much cheaper) allow downgrading a 4.31 system and also reading games from an External or internal HDD on the PS3?

no no, you haven't understood it all :?

the ODE isn't for the downgrade. it's a chip that goes between your ps3 and the blueray drive and makes your ps3 believe that the iso placed on a hdd plugged in via usb or internal is a real blueray and nothing else. no downgrade.

the usb cobra allows the downgrade but not without the E3 flasher chip

So in that case is it only the E3 Flasher?

yes. but it remains to be confirmed that the downgrade still works on firmware 4.31. I'll say it again, a lot of tutorials mention 4.21

Hmmm I'm quite lost...
Actually my cousin tells me I should get the Cobra ODE to downgrade but you just told me the ODE doesn't allow the downgrade.
So I was looking for a USB key that would let me downgrade my PS3 and my buddy's (yes so 2 PS3s, since I was saying a USB key).

I'll say it again... Only a chip allows flashing to this day. And the ode is a drive emulator. Cobra did have a USB key that allowed the downgrade but an update quickly made it obsolete.

What's the date code of the other ps3 that needs to be downgraded? A number followed by a letter. Fat or Slim? Yes a chip can be used several times.

It's a PS3 slim too but I don't have any reference for its model, I'll ask right away.

And what do you mean by "a chip can be used several times"?
What I see....Downgrade with the chip and then remove it and do the same with the other PS3?

For now and at first glance yes. However there's a risk of ban if you play games before their release for example, with no way to unban unlike with cfw.
