You may need to install the CFW PUP from the PS3 Recovery Menu.

PS1, PS2 games run in backward compatibility mode.Prepare yourself for utter and absolute awesomeness. Current PS3 homebrew and new homebrew will need to be “retail” packaged and signed that’ll happen with fail0verflow’s tools.No piracy, no backups – straight homebrew. With the above point in mind you should know this CFW does not enable piracy.This CFW does not modify the kernel in any way, meaning all the current compiled homebrew out there will not install or run using “Install Package Files” from the XMB.

3.41 on the other hand: upgrade or create CFW 3.41 and for the interim you’re still able to jailbreak and run unsigned ‘brews. So if you’re already at 3.55, where you’re unable to downgrade, then for the moment you have no other choice but CFW (or OFW) 3.55. It’s whatever original PUP file you use – only you cannot flash a version lower than the current version installed on your PS3. If you’re currently running 3.41 (or earlier) you can either remain there and create a specific CFW PUP for that version, or you can upgrade to a later PS3 firmware version, like 3.55 for example.

Connect that USB device to your PS3 and install from Settings -> System Update.

Copy and rename CFW.PUP to a USB storage device keeping this directory structure in mind: /PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP.

Create the PS3 Custom Firmware (CFW) from the original/official update (OFW):.

Extract and copy “PS3UPDAT.PUP” to the “ps3utils” directory.

Download PS3 3.55 (or whatever official firmware PUP) from here.
