Any M33 thing will work, whether you made it with the specific PSP to be upgraded or not.

If the M33 Creator has already been run, and the M33 update is ready, then yes.

sorry about this but i have just put the pandoras battery into my psp and apart from the downgrade it also says PRESS O to back up nand to ms/0:nand-dump.bin. and also press [] to restore nand from ms0:nand-dump.bin. What do these mean?...

That's something you want to do, it backs up the battery's EEPROM code, so that it can be replaced after the Pandora's battery has run (since it alters the code). I didn't and had to use the fake one, but experienced no side effects. But, you may have lessended battery life if you don't back up and replace the code, so you really should.

Sorry to cut in here....Those options are for dumping your psp's nand (flash) to the memory stick so if you run into a botched downgrade using the battery, you can use the backup to restore it...It has nothing to do with the battery's eeprom codes...
Its actually a good idea to make a backup of a good 1.50 nand dump, and keep it either on your magic memory stick or backed up to your computer-You may need it later on if you are unbricking someone elses psp and their nand is toast....Just a suggestion.

It should be in the root of your memory stick the file is called nand-dump.bin...

No problem-glad to hear it went well for you.
You use that nand dump you saved and rename the file to nandimage.flash and use the third option in the pandora menu-the one where you select [] (square)

It just basically makes a copy of the files in your psp's internal nand memory (flash) and then it can be used to restore your psp to working again...Think of it like the system restore function that the windows operating system uses..If you have a good working 1.50 nand dump-you can use it on other psp's as well to unbrick them..
