    This tutorial seems pretty simple. Does it have all the steps I need to do? I mean, if I follow this step by step I'll have DEX FW without any bricks or something like that or does it need anything else that is not in the tutorial? And after installed do I need to do anything else to be able to play games?

    nice! one thing i want to know.. months before when i was still on CEX, i already did qa-flagged my console before using otheros pup and qa_flag.pkg to have the option "install via harddisk" and switched from kmeaw, ofw3.55 to trueblue vice-versa. now im on DEX, do you think its still safe to revert back to CEX without bricking my console? :D

    once you qa_flag your console it will stay forever (as long you are not updated to higher than 3.55OFW CEX)
    TBCFW v2 already have qa_flag integrated into their CFW
    but it not safe installing DEX from TB CFW

    Thanks for the tut. I've bookmarked it in case I ever decide to take the plunge. (no spare hard drive to do so at the moment and money being saved up for a new PSU for the PC) +rep for the share. Now don't make a site and leave lol.

    if ur asking whether qa flagging will remain after converting to dex, then the answer is yes. it's pretty much like a cfw on cex, but with several dex options. they'll still be there if u revert back to cex.

    one question....why do you have a step to copy petitboot but you never mention installing it?

    Part2: Dump Your Flash And Root Keycheck wether your console nand atau nor CLICK !!! Here
    install Latest multiMAN (CEX Version)
    copy dtbImage.ps3.bin in root of your USB (For nor console)
    And For NAND console rename NAND-dtbImage.ps3.bin to dtbImage.ps3.bin and copy to your USB
    plug your usb to your PS3 and Open multiman and Open Filemanager (select+start) Select any file > press O > open in hex viewer > press Select+start > choose yes on option dump your flash storage (Otherwise Choose NO) file will copied to USB extension .norbin (nor console) Or .nandbin (nand console)
    install eEID_RKDumper.pkg then remove your USB then run eEID_RKDumper
    open multiman go to file manager
    open folder dev_hdd0/temp then copy eid_root_key to usb (48bytes)
    petitboot isn't needed
