the 3000 series aren't moddable or Jailbreabale.
Did you get your money back? There is no way in hell a God of War 3 bundle would have 3.7 firmware. Heck, my friends October 2011 manufactured 160GB console from Letsbuy had 3.65 firmware. It could have been swapped to another console.
Check this guide for the firmware details of various Slim SKU's: PS3DEVWIKI
It's extremely difficult to find an older SKU now. Since the price cut, most of the older PS3 stocks have been sold out. Try looking for lesser known electronic stores and check if they have any older units in stock.
Why cant u buy one from the forums ?
Since you're from Borivali, did you try Indraprastha shopping center? The first floor has a shop called Do-Buy. They usually have the latest electronic goods. I had bought my PS2 from them. Check with them if they have an older stock. Tell them you'll buy the console instantly, if it's on 3.55 or lower firmware. They have a television hooked up, so if they're willing to open up the box, then you're in for luck.
Date of import is the date on which the console had been imported from another country. Sony doesn't manufacture Playstations in India. They import their stock from European countries. So don't confuse the manufacturing date with import date.
its all sold i guess
Dude there is a seller by the name of #[member='nikhiljabeen'] and he has the model u want.
He is from mumbai as well and will serve your purpose like tailor made situation. I have already sent him a pm regarding your requirement.
are you sure bro... because today i will be going to croma and will be asking the lady to opean the box and check the fW ...
I would suggest you purchase the console from nikhil.. ?
