i swear it's not broken, dvd's and music works totally fine and it didn't just accidently stop working after converting to dex

I've seen this before to and there are threads and topics about this. Best fix is replacing the Drive for some reason the laser just wont read Games which is really strange. Id take apart the PS3 and check to see if all components are plugged in! they should be if u didnt shake it or move it to much but you never know tbh! ill look for possible fixes and respond if i find something helpful!!

Bro, debug settings, check for bd drive access or something like this. If it's on bd Emulator, switch to bd drive. Problem probably solved.

Maybe try this ?

Downgrade to the official 3.55 Regular DEX firmware(not rebug type.)

Then install the 4.46 rebug firmware mad for your LV2 type( DEX or CEX) and then you can spoof to 4.60.

Or you can try to switch to BD drive within the debug settings>bd drive access.


And if it still doesn't work, can't you just insert the game disc and try loading it in multiman or ITA manager?


And what happens when you try to click the DVD icon?
