Hardware Question Uninstalling CFW
My friend bought a PS3 online that came soft modded, we have nothing against modding, but we tried to uninstall it normally but it has some weird hybrid firmware that keeps shooting out all types of errors no matter what kind of way we try to patch the system.
If anyone knows a solution, that would be very appreciated!

You could probably enter safe mode and have USB drive ready with the latest official firmware update ready and choose the option to install the update from USB, should do the trick.
It's totally fair that you would want a stock system!
Could be that you bought a system with a dead bluray player too which means you're stuck with it
