Step1: Make sure your PS3 is in V3.55 system, either OFW(official firmware) or CFW(official firmware). Which means if your PS3 is lower than V3.55, just update it to V3.55, if you dont know how to do it, PM me! if your PS3 is higher than V3.55, sorry, you can not use this item. please use E3 flasher to downgrade your PS3 to V3.55 first.

Step2: When your PS3 is in V3.55, you need to install the PS3 True Blue V3.55 CFW. Here is the method on how to install PS3 True Blue V3.55 CFW.The update method is just the same as update the official firmware via USB storage.

• Download the PS3 True Blue V3.55 CFW
• Extract the file, you will get "TrueBlue-3.55-CFW" folder, you can see "PS3UPDAT.PUP" inside.
• Prepare a USB storage, create a folder named "PS3"in the root of your USB storage, then create another folder named "UPDATE" in the "PS3" folder, in the end put the "PS3UPDAT.PUP" in the "UPDATE" folder. So it is: USB storage----PS3----UPDATE----PS3UPDAT.PUP
• Insert your USB storage into your PS3 USB interface and power on your PS3.
• Move to the system update option and choose update via USB storage.
• Choose the PS3UPDAT.PUP and start updating, go and drink a beer, wait until it finishes updating. Don't do anything during the update progress.
• Your PS3 will be in PS3 True Blue V3.55 CFW after the installation.

Step3: Update your PS3 True blue to the latest version V2.3.

• Download the True Blue (JB2) PS3 Update v2.3
• Extract the file you will get "TrueBlueUpdate-2.3.pkg"
• Put the "TrueBlueUpdate-2.3.pkg" file in your USB storage.
• Insert the USB storage into your PS3 and then install the pkg file in your PS3.
• After you finish the installation, you will see the "True blue Update V2.3"
