What I did is just flip the power switch on the back 3 or 4 times and it started working. There was some waiting involved but i came back to life and I can waste my life playing call of duty

Hi,
I sent mine back, the warranty was over but Sony still gave me a brand new one free of charge. They did not say why so this must be a big problem for them.

How to fix error code 80010002 ps3

It seems to me that, the error code you are getting is about missing or corupted files to a game. Try entering safe mode and performing a file recovery. Some have also got the error code from games where a feature is no longer available. Such as (Example not true) Call of Duty no longer supporting multi player online.

My new PS3 Call of Duty black Ops game is freezing when I try to play online. I cannot get it to load at all.

I've read that deleting the files for the game and/or signing out of PSN helps (I haven't tried either, but I can't get past the title screen and cutscenes without my PS3 freezing)

Call of Duty 4 Takes Forever to Load on PC Online

If you are on a router you may want to open the ports for online play. 28960 on TCP & UDP P.s. If you are on a linksys router the Ip that you type in your browser is most likely 192.168.1.1 and for Dlink 192.168.0.1 If you dont use either of these router companies check the manual and it should tell you the Ip address, or go into CMD prompt on windows and type in "Ipconfig"

Won't read games-any bluray

Usually 80010516 = An error occured during the start operation; PS One game swapped using the eject function and then play pressed quickly, PS One game inserted again.

Well there are only two things that can be done.
1.) Check to make sure the disk is clean, as well as the PS3 vents.
2.) Get a cleaning disk to clean the lens.

If those to do not work you may want to try saving all of your game saves and anything you want to save and do a full system restore (format) IF nothing then, call Sony to have the lens replaced.

If you want you could do this your self. Many online manuals to how to take apart the PS3 and clean the lens.
