256 with 3.6x downgrade INFECTUS nands [and other consoles repair waninbrick]


Hi, I've been working on this project for about 2 months now and, now that I know it works, I'm making it public so everyone can use it, this tutorial is for PS3s with 256mb NAND flashes, this doesn't mean it might not work on 16mb ones, the modification part is almost the same with NOR flashes, but since my 80gb PS3, which has a 16mb, is still ****ed up, I haven't had the opportunity to try it or verify it.

Hello, I've been working on this project about two months now since I've gotten to work as public so that everyone can use, this tutorial is for consoles with 256MB NAND flash does not mean it does not work in 16MB in itself is changed almost the same in those with normal flash, but because even I have my fat fucking 16mb 80GB I have not been able to neither prove nor verified.


Let's go to the point (Translator's Note: a jargon is being used here, "turron" is replaced for "grano" since both are hard things):
Nougat (the phrase I owe to some forero around here that I really liked the expression):


With infectus, we extract our NAND flash0.bin and flash1.bin and, just like in lukin's tutorial for repairing bad NANDs, we do the same process until we get our 256mb flashfinal.bin dump.
With INFECTUS flash0.bin and we get our nand flash1.bin as in the tutorial to repair bad lukin nands do the same process until we get our dump flashfinal.bin 256MB
 
nand we open this with a simple hex editor and look for this part editor


We open this NAND with a simple hex editor and search for this part:
"00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 6F FF E0"
"00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 6F FF E0"


You'll see that right below there's a very similar line, I found this data in the 000C0020 offset, it might vary depending on the NAND. Ok, so here's where the fun starts :D
ay you will see that just under a very similar line, I find this data in the offset 000C0020 may vary according to the nand and the party starts here:-D


Replace, INCLUDING THAT LINE with the 1patchcos.bin file.
EVEN replace that line with the file if you use the hxd 1patchcos.bin get in the first 0 of the line -> right click and paste writing before you have to have an open 1patchcos.bin hxd in hex and copy its contents to can paste ..
If you're using hxd, put it in the first 0 (zero) of that line -> right click and paste while writing. Before that you need to have open 1patchcos.bin in hxd and you need to copy all its content to be able to paste it.


Next, we're going to patch the second file, let's search in our dump with hxd the following part:
then we find the second file to patch at hxd we dump on our part:


"00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 40"
"00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 40"


Just like with the first file, you need to patch this one the same way. We grab the 2patchtrvk.bin from the pack and replace all its content, including
and in the same way as the first patched patched this also cojemos 2patchtrvk.bin pack the file and replace the entire contents including the "00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 40 "


"00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 40"
then we take the option we use reescramble flowrebuilder this dump so we rebuild our flash0.ECC.bin and flash1.ECC.bin


and flash the result, when you finish you will notice that the PS3 now has a nice on but black screen, it cojemos our factory jig to put it into service mode and put it in factory, then the typical cojemos lv2diag of yore and the pup you please


After that, open them with flowrebuilder and use the "reescramble this dump" option so we can have generated our flash0.ECC.bin and flash1.ECC.bin again.
(NOTE: the first pup that metais will stay in the console as the minimum version that you can downgrade then, if you want to lose 3.55 to 3.41 then you will have to put the pup up to 3.41 before 3.55 or 3.55 will remain in that if cost will not rewrite the dump again to downgrade to lower the pup that you put the first time.)


Flash the results. When you're done, you'll notice that when you start up your PS3, you'll have in front of you a nice little black screen. So now, grab your jig and put it in factory service mode, choose factory. Then, grab your good old lv2diag and whatever PUP you want.
then you put your factory lv2diag to leave the service and you're ;-)


Note: this applies to repair the brick Waninkoko NAND NOT DONATED plates even sem-001 (tested) (and step downgrade xD)


Thanks:


(WARNING: The first PUP you put, will remain as the lowest downgradable version (Translator's note: does that make sense? Lol), now if you want to downgrade from 3.55 to 3.41, you'll need to put the 3.41 PUP before upgrading to 3.55, if not, it will stay at 3.55 because, otherwise, you'll have to go and write the dump all over again to be able to downgrade lower than the first PUP you put.)
all channel # irc-hispano darkps3 for supporting me for so long ;-)
to donate the INFECTUS austaquio32 to achieve to continue with my project
to Nodial2ne paid for the help locating files in the nand
to robs1 for helping throughout the process with ideas to make this possible


and everyone who was patient and not by private haunts me xD


Now, put lv2diag to get out of factory service and you're done.


Notes:
pack:
this also goes for repairing Waninkoko's brick without a donated NAND including sem-001 boards (proved) (and were downgraded that in the process xD)


Thanks:

Ungrateful to:


er_poty : every post I make, he starts a flame, and annoys me with PMs saying I'm not even at the same level of PDNKED
Ingratitude:


PS: I've being unemployed for 4 years. If anyone wants to donate anyways, you can contact me via PM (I'm sorry but I have 2 child and the PS3 doesn't feed them or me xD)
er_poty: I do post, post it comes to creating private fights and telling him to send me get to the bottom of the shoes PDNKED
Either that or give me an f'n job! xD


PS3s compatibles with this method (Thanks pdnked):
pd: I have 4 years unemployed, who selflessly want to donate something please contact me via private (sorry but I have 2 children and the PS3 does not give me to eat me or them xD)

=How to Fix Waninkoko PS3 CFW Bricked Consoles=
After being investigating nand's I found a solution. Let's patch a functional nand OFW 3.55 with our "keys" (bootloader_0, bootloader_1, IED, ISD, and metldr vtrm) console. This will enable USB ports and will begin factory mode.
Attention! If you have not much experience with the soldering iron, start practicing with old motherboards. . I am not responsible for any damage that may occur in your console.
I use two infectus because it failed to detect both nands me. (Just go twice as fast in read / write) xD.
==Materials==
-Tester (recommended)
Soldering iron 15-30W.
-Modchip Infectus (v1 or v2.)
-Cable Wrapping.
-Tin.
-Flux
-Stripper.
desoldering braid (optional but surely going to have to use xD)
Double-sided tape or hot melt gun (to fix the cables).
S.O-PC with Windows (better Xp)
-PSGRADE / PSKEY [..] JIG mode.
-Pen (with lv2diag.self [file1] and PS3UPDAT.PUP [waninkoko v2])
==Programs==
-PS3NANDProgrammer1_41
Flow Rebuilder 230.
Flow Rebuilder 350. [BETA]
-NANDECC 130.
Infectus-USB drivers (v3.1).
-Nand Functional OFW 3.55 (256MB). (Any model 256mb)
Hex-Editor (I used Hex Workshop Editor)
For legal reasons can not distribute the nand OFW 3.55.
==Soldering infectus==
We are going to follow this outline: http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/3746/ps3inf.jpg
Very soothing and helps the soldier we all flux in both nands cables.
Note: With the +5 V, the infectus usb now work correctly, so no need to feed them.
===Powering the nands===
Items in purple is where you put the nands approximately 1.80V. I've used a solution somewhat "mikey mouse" using 4 diodes to
reduce the +5 V which gives one of the outputs of the source.
==Reading the nands==
"I have evidence that there is no need to feed the nands as the flashing red light is sufficient, however I failed to detect without food for another site. Turning on the power-supply source. "We connect the pc infectus.
"We opened PS3NANDProgramer 1.41 (" LOAD DLL "then" connect "and we choose flash0 or flash1). If the solders are correct, we will leave the data nands "Flash info" (otherwise check with tester soldering points in the nand). "The process of reading is around 15 minutes approx. "It is advisable to take more than two dump's of nands. (In case you have bad blocks, but infectus say no bad blocks).
Compare nands (flash0 and flash1) with Hex workshop program: TOOLS -> compare (select two of the same nand dumps) and found that they are identical. (Repeat the same with flash1). Guard well the CFW nands Wanin like gold brick. xD
==Preparation of new Nand's==
First of all we will extract the contents of nand brick, then will patch our "keys" in the new nand.
"We opened FlowRebuilder350 "We selected the two nand CFW extracted in step 2 and select the output file. We would like to "dump" if the order of nands is right we will create a peak of 264 megawatts and a series of folders.
In one of these we find (FDI, CSD, metldr, bootloader_0, bootloader_1, ISD, vtrm) and core_os. (LV0, lv2, lv2_kernel.self .... spu's and others.)
===OFW nands Patching===
"We opened FlowRebuilder230 "We selected the two nand's (flash0 and flash1) OFW and choose the output file (interpolate nand's).
"Now we need to patch "We opened the nand nand WFC ofw and brick with hex editor that you like best. "Now we are copying the sectors of our nand to nand functional. (Find and replace). [With Hex workshop 6 you can see what you have checked, bottom right [cursor / caret / sel]
IED (Starts "0000000600001DD000000000000000000000007000000 8") SEL: 10000
ISD (We "000000030000027000000000000000000000004000000 0") SEL: 800
metldr (you seek "metldr" begins with "00 00 0E DA .." SEL: EDE0.
bootloader_1 (You have to look in your nand WFC (has the same header that bootloader_0). SEL: 400000.
bootloader_0 (found in the first offset, sel: 400000).
Vtrm (this look in HexEdit "sceivtrm" and replace them). SEL: 400000.
Once the changes, you keep the new patched nand.
===Restoring ECC===
We open with 230 NandFlowRebuilder selecionamos "Desinterpolate in new Flashes."
-You select flash0 and flash1 (with the same order as in step 3b) and finally your arhiva patched.
The third tab, select the file that previously we had saved.
-Tight "Do Process" (we hope to complete successfully)
XD finish and now having the dumps XXX2.NEW XXXX.NEW and proceed to repair the ECC.
"We opened 1.30 NANDECC select the input file and the output, then click the" do process ". (We do this twice, once for each nand).
The ECC has to be repaired in the order of (450-550) if it is the wrong patched nand.
==Writing nand's patched==
"We opened PS3NandProgrammer 1.41 and delete [ERASE] on the nand's content. (Repeat the process two or three times removed) "Then write the [WRITE] the two nands. (How the process of writing takes about 45minutes). (We found no bad blocks, if any, check solering).
==Factory mode==
Now infectus disconnecting the pc, if you turn on the console, the LED should flash orange hd. (If it is not patched review and write nand nand.) (Because you have a bug)
Our console still does not work, however well-lit and read the usb ports. Nand has encrypted a file system (not yours). So let's create the new file system from nand. By having the correct keys on the console so you can enter factory mode and install the 3.55 v2 waninkoko frimware. (Do not probeis OFW factory when they leave you will have a nice brick mode again.)
"Once we introduce written PSGRADE / PSKEY ... etc, JIG mode, turn on the console (power + eject), will shut down to 20sec, then enter the pen with lv2diag.self and waninkoko update v2.
"After 10 minutes the console will turn off and will return to life. Then enter the pen with lv2diag.self [file2] and out of factory mode.
And this xD, the console and is alive! [Desoldering infectus and mount the console]
==Update==
Update from rms here: http://rms.dukio.com/?p=35
OK, so we all know about how the original Waninkoko firmware broke the older large NAND consoles, that was due to him overwriting some portions of Cell-OS Lv2 and the segment boundaries, god knows about the signature also. He also zeroed out a good section of the kernel, and also breaks some NAND consoles due to that. Now, you want to fix this issue? Well, you have to have:
1) A NAND Dumper
2) CORE_OS_PACKAGE.PKG patched to remove signature checks or Official Core OS/PS3 in Service Mode
3) A NAND Flasher
4) Flow Rebuilder
5) Hex editor
6) PS3 with firmware less than 3.55
OK, so you first have to dump both NAND chips (2 128MB NANDs for a total of 256MB) and interleave them using Flow Rebuilder, then decrypt the CORE_OS package to give you a raw core OS image, then open your combined NAND dump in a hex editor and search for “6F FF E0″ in the search for hex section. Once there, you should see:
00000000  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 6f ff e0  |.............o..|
00000010  00 00 00 01 00 00 00 17  00 00 00 00 00 6f ff e0  |.............o..|
Right after the second “6F FF E0″, remove the next 7,340,000 bytes, then, insert the unpacked Core OS (7,340,000 bytes). Then split the image using Flow Rebuilder (use ECC!) and flash. Hopefully it should work, and then you can just Lv2diag your way out.
Do not overwrite anything else.
This guide should help you fix any NAND console with Core OS fail.
