aaa soo u put hdd from that jail broken... to console with cfw ... why u dont say all at first it's difrance ... just put that hd formated in pc to cfw console get the same soft habbibi version with the same cobra best... or u can instal another cfw 4.70 i am not sure bettter dont risk brick... :p cuz some cfw shits can be in flash memory... and put that hdd to jailbrake ps3 after format on laptop it will install ofw the same nember easly... :D why u use jailbrake bro ? it's
(A) Firmwares from 3.56 upwards are un-jailbreakable at the moment, perhaps it will remain that way, or perhaps we will see a break through in the future, only time will tell. BUT some ppls have 4.22 with jail :p still easy instal the same cfw and fix 2 ps3 :p but who use JAil today :D ? i see darknet autor hes use cobra ode , cfw , ofw , and e3 shits on 1 console... :D black magic for me ... ;] but why not..

Dude ur getting it all wrong. Ok im on 4.70 habib cobra 1.00 and for someone reason on my cfw ps3 when i turn it on it says file or system is corrupted and you cant press O u have to do it so i did it and it finishes and reboots but then again it shows same thing so i keep doing it and same thing show up. So i asked somebody and they told me that i have a messed up hdd so i need a new hdd. So i got the new hdd from my ofw ps3. I have 2 ps3 one is cfw the other is ofw. So i got the hdd from ofw and put it in cfw and i go to recovery because i csnt access the xmb menu so i press update and downgrade to 4.70 Habib which is the same fw i had before this whole issue happened and it freezes at 98% and then i tried 3.55 and samething. Any fw i try freezes at 98%
