Ps3 Problems! Please Help!error Code 0x8001002b

I have just got saints row 2 from gamefly and i put the game in the ps3, the ps3 recognizes the game i hit X to go into the game. once into the game it talks about auto saving and such then i click ok then this other screen comes up downloading game data for saints row 2. well im letting it download and you can see the estimated time on the right side and it will say 6 minutes. well it gets up to 8 percent then the time over on the right starts going up by 10 seconds every second and even gets up to be over an hour of waiting time while its still on 8 percent. i still waited to see if it would go up but the an error came up on the screen saying game disc error. check game disc and restart. error 0x8001002b. im pretty pissed especially since gamefly takes forever to send games anyways but this is ridiculous. PLEASE HELP.

I bought the game recently and had this error code. Here is what i did to make my game work:

First of all I checked if the disk was dirty or damaged, and I cleaned it up. This did not solved the issue, so then I tried deleting all saints row 2 realated files so the next game start it will install the game again. This solved the problem, I was able to install 100% and the game started.

You can try cleaning up the disk, or unistalling game files. The unistalling thing have to be done a couple of times if it does not help the first time. If this still does not fix the problem, I do not know how to help.
