Hacking Need help of possible

rebug is an xml file with a link inside. iirc, the update will be around 200MBs. it's named after its MD5, so check that before installing. speaking of which, I think the update has its own checksum (based on what I read on psdevwiki), but it's better to be extra cautious.

You should use the 2.0 version not the 1.0 version.

Ive had 100% success with 1.0 and 2.0 with about 100 ps3s done. 2.0 is much smoother.

what im saying is that im very particular when it comes to following guides, i dont like to deviate. so im looking for a guide for 2.0

iirc it should be the same concept, just 2.0 is much smoother, as long you use the correct Nor Dumper and Flasher not NAND you won;t brick.

CEX, it is retail, DEX is developer, CEX is what you should be using.
