    Great video, but this is totally insane, it's real madness! You have to take apart all the console to arrive to the battery! Are they fool?! I remember the Sega Saturn, that had a specific door on the back to access the CR2032 battery... why Sony did this for a piece that needs to be replaced after some years?!

    What an absolute ridiculously bad position of the battery. You could actually say this is practically unserviceable.

      It does seem crazy how much you have to take it completely apart to get to it. When I find something like this, I would likely two things. I would solder on two sets of wires off the solder points on the bottom of the PCB where the battery holder is. From these two sets of wires, I would solder on a separate holder that can be placed elsewhere in the case as I'm sure there is room under the DVD drive area so that less has to be removed to replace in the future. The second set of wires would be left covered but available so you could solder on another battery holder temporarily with a battery in place as you do the actual replacement so that the time isn't lost in the process of the battery swap itself.

    The trim pieces actually slide off, pushing up and to the left, when facing you. I tried your technique, which worked but ended up breaking one of the legs in the center of the piece.

But for some reason the PS3 sees my USB with PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP. But when I try to update it via storage media, it says no applicable update data was found, and i can't get it to recovery mode because the touch power button is unstable and doesn't always detect my finger, sometimes it does but when i am holding the power touch it loses my finger and doesn't do the recovery mode procedure. Why doesn't the ps3 detect the update file?
