Hacking PS3 4.10 How to softmod/downgrade?

[Cyan]

The "USB Dongle" was the first method to jailbreak the PS3 before any custom firmware were released.
Since the custom Firmware, you don't need these USB Dongles anymore.


About the downgrade, if you are past 3.55, then you NEED a hardware flasher (E3 or Progskeet, they both exists in clip, Solderless solution) to downgrade to cFW3.55
Once you downgraded, as the installed firmware IS a custom one, you don't need any USB dongle at all.
You don't need to keep the flasher inside your console either, that's why you don't need to buy one for your console, you could just use one from someone else.

If you want a downgrade, Devin is offering his service.

In that case all I need to do is find somebody interested in downgrading their PS3 to split the cost for the flasher with me Possibly my brother in law since he's the only one of my friends who isn't a "sony-hating nintendo fanboy" as they call themselves >_>
