[PS3] Do NOT Upgrade to firmware 4.45 on the PS3

[FirstTimer]

Well, I wouldn't call them maids .

Slaves?

Well, I wouldn't call them maids but we do pay a couple of women to clean our house.

Slaves?

LOL. You guys. No, I mean we just call them our cleaning ladies. It's not like they live with us like a maid would.

 

[SethMode]

Man, people here haven't heard of cleaning ladies? Who cleans your parents house for them? Or is that how you collect your allowance?

Our house would be a dusty, fur riddled mess without our cleaning lady. The few times I actually do it, I do a shitty job (on purpose?)

 

[Glenbino]

LOL @ you guys acting like having Molly Maid stop by the house is some kind of insane luxury. I think it costs me like $160 a month (about $10 an hour) but they clean the whole house and do me and my girl's laundry while they clean. Well worth it if you don't have someone to spend all day as a homemaker and especially if you have pets.

I'd pay a maid service before I'd pay a gardener any day.

Nothing like waiting a fucking week if you got fucked by this thing.

I'd be PISSED if I were one of them.

I understand not being able to test these patches on every possible scenario but you would think consoles with larger replaced hard drives would be one of those key things they test.

You never know. They very well could have and just didn't come across the problem. Quite a few people on here have upgraded HDDs and didn't see the problem.

Oh, I know. But that seemed to be the biggest issue. It seems that I lucked out because the update was pulled before my console auto-updated. I'd be willing to bet my paycheck that if the update went through I'd be fucked right now.

I'm FUCKING pissed. Haven't been able to play any games since April, and it's almost fucking July.

I would say they should compensate everyone affected but I'm sure they'll have some company line about how you changing out the HDD was your choice.

I was hearing some reports that it affected people with stock HDD's as well, just at a much lower frequency.

4.46 is now available. Here are instructions if 4.45 bricked your console:

My PS3 was bricked before 4.45 - 4.40/4.41 fucked me up. I wonder if this will work?

 

[jms493]

U cant boot up in recovery mode?

 

[jeffx]

After reading some of the posts over at the psu forums, I'm staying away from 4.46. Dudes are complaining of black screens & data being corrupted - WTF? Since my problems started after 4.40, this 'fix' wouldn't have helped anyway.

Another bang-up job by Sony. How could they not take into account PS3 owners with upgraded HDDs?
