== Quick syscon rehashing ==
Goal: To be able to install unpatched firmwares on consoles that where previously on 3.56+
 
=== The FSM dance (old alpha method, no longer used) ===
NOR only, for now! Don't use directly as is on NAND, because offsets will differ!
 
=== Patch files used ===
Depending on which step, will be used in one or both ROS areas:
* [http://www.multiupload.com/LDVW5O233F ROS-empty.bin (7 MB)]
* [http://www.multiupload.com/X69SN5258J ROS-filled.bin (7 MB)]
This will be the same for all steps:
* [http://www.multiupload.com/DYBWAJOGQK RVK-0x40000.bin (512 KB)]
 
After each step of patching, enter Factory Service Mode and reinstall nonpatched firmware (e.g. OFW)

Redump flash after last reinstall of firmware in service mode to check if both ROS areas are occupied.
 
=== Alternative QA way ===
# Patch as normal downgrader (ROS 0/1 + RVK prg/pkg) on mainpage
# install prepatched firmware in service mode
# enable QA-extra and install unpatched firmware in recovery mode.
 
=== Alternative shorter reFSM way ===
# Patch as normal downgrader (ROS 0/1 + RVK prg/pkg) on mainpage
# install prepatched firmware in service mode
# install unpatched firmware in service mode
