How to Jailbreak PS3 and Install CFW on 4.90

The process will be quite long compare to our previous jailbreak videos but it is recommended to follow each step exactly as it is to avoid issues, specially on dumping and checking the flash files.

Another TIP. Always install HFW twice before installing any xploit on the ps3. And any issues with the update, use safe mode for the update.
