I've never really looked into the ODE stuff before, but if you can find a PS3 that has firmware 3.55 or less, you can easily put a custom firmware on it. This past Tuesday I did this for a fat PS3 that was purchased by my step-brother for about $214.00 from ebay. I personally have a slim PS3 like in the above picture. There's many different choices of custom firmware, but I stick with Rebug.

I imagine that BD is short for Blu-ray drive, and Dos might be dual operating system.

uh thanks for your info dood, so all i need is just stay away from model which have ofw above 355?
i wanna have model which allowin me fullaccess(note like downgrade/upgrade anytimes without risk of brick)

Yep, as long as you look for a version 3.55 PS3 (or upgrade any lower firmware to 3.55) you can upgrade to a custom firmware no problem. If you want to play it safe, try to get a slim PS3. I believe they're less prone to develop the YLOD problem. Just google YLOD to read more about it. Here's an example video on how to fix the problem, but I've never known anyone to have that error: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMG-6rbanlY

uh its seems got pretty hard work for ixed:P, i dunt know how to sholderin harware:P, so you tell me that fat model seems usualy got this toruble? well then ill deciced slim model then
dood

[Mezmorize]

Yea as far as I know Sony fixed the problem by the time slims came out. Notice that YouTube videos on YLOD are showing the Fat model. The only thing you would be missing with getting a slim model instead of the fat is two less USB ports, no CF/SD/MS card reader, and no retail PS2 disc loading.

[olala]

fat is two less USB ports,

i dunt mind

no CF/SD/MS card reader,

uh i can handle with this one:P

and no retail PS2 disc loading.

this tha lame damned!, no solution? like play usin emulator or somethin tricks beside usin optical disc?

also ive hear about slim model have good point, tha model consumed less electricy charge rather than tha fat, it is true?

dood

[Mezmorize]

Yes, it's still possible to load backup copies of PS2 disc's, but I have no experience with doing that (or PSP games) yet. The only types of backups I have played are PS1 and PS3.

[olala]

thats awesome!, ive bunch psp games which i dunt finished tha playthriugh yet:P, now i can sold mi psp and get ps3 lol, got it dood, thanks for your help, im registry on ps3hack, and see what good stuff overthere, will back to you for bunch question again(hope you dunt get mad of me:P)

um after thinkin over an month, ive deciced to loosen mi intention on, even tha price is so cheap( i can get tha console bettwen $40-70$<thafat model) but tha repaired may cost pretty suckin! $50+ for ylod(dependin on tha probs may even coused $100!) heh. , also tha slim models noy tha safetly enough, ive ask friends of mine who have slim model ylod 3times as well, i never seen sony did mistake since im big fans of sony, consider this is tha first failure for sony, so sorry sony, ill buy your product if tha priced droped at <=$50(for superb slim model), till then well so sorry
