Hey,

I've already asked this in the "psp 3.50 downgrader!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" thread but no-one seemed to know the solution to my problem. I would be so grateful if any of you guys(and/or girls) could help.

I'll just quote what I said in the earlier thread:

Hey everybody,

First things first, I have to admit I am a total noob to the homebrew scene since I always had the wrong firmware (kept updating needlessly). But now seems the good time to start getting into it!

I attempted to carry out the 3.50 downgrader yesterday and tried to follow the instructions as closely as possible. But everytime I get to the stage where I load Lumines and the blue screen supposedly shows, all I get is the game loading up normally.

Would anyone know why this is and how to fix this problem?

Thanks

I've got it set to english and tried every different way of starting the game (pressing X, pressing START etc). The thing I'm not confident about is the copying to appropriate folders, I've done it so many times that I'm afraid I may have messed up the directories. Is there anyway I could reset it to default settings with defaults folders to try again? Or is there way to show you my settings (folders) on my PSP to make it easier for you trying to help?

Thanks :)

Ok, I tried to follow the included instructions with the downgrader as closely as possible.

In the first level of the memory stick is my music folder and PSP folder.

Within my PSP folder are the following folders: COMMON, GAME, HEN_350, MUSIC, PHOTO, SAVEDATA, AND SYSTEM.

I put the eboot.php (renamed appropriately) in the F:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE folder.

The 3.50 downgrader PSP folder has been merged with the PSP folder on my memory stick.

Anything else you need to know?

YES IT WORKS.

Thank you so much

For some reason there was a MS_ROOT folder in the SAVEDATA folder so I went into that MS_ROOT folder to find the savegame files and put in them in the place they're supposed to be and the PSP just reset and everything seemed to work.

Thank You once again for your help in my problem

SUCCESS!!

Version 1.50. Couldn't have been more easier eh?

What would you recommend I do first with my PSP as a total newbie to the homebrew scene?

Just a single 1 gb memory stick. Although I have another 1GB but I'd rather keep that for my digital camera

Why don't you just buy one off eBay or something? And also I'm in the UK so delivery would be expensive

Sorry, but I am not looking to sell. I still don't see why you don't purchase one online rather than buying off some random person you met in a forum
