ok lets clear things up. This is not a hardware failure

Its caused by idiots who have screw with the firmware updates

end of story

How is it possible to screw with the firmware updates? Isn't it like "would you like to update your firmware?", "yes please.", "thank you very much, it's updated now".

 

From starcraft's third link:

"Indeed, some users have experienced the error after mistakenly installing firmware meant for a region other than their own."

Is the console silly enough to offer firmware updates from other regions?

There's multiple ways to obtain and install firmware for those without highspeed internet access at home.
