Go HERE and download 2.71 official firmware so you can update to it.
After you have updated to 2.71 official firmware (check and make sure your at 2.71) we will need to find out what type of motherboard you have.
Open the UMD Bay door and look at the top right hand corner and see if there is any text there.

If there is text there then go HERE and follow the guide for -2.71 PSP (TA-82 or TA-86)
If there is NO text then go HERE and follow the guide for -2.71 PSP
I know there are 2.60 downgraders but it is better to update to 2.71 and use the 2.71 downgrader.
The downgrader will downgrade the PSP to 1.50 firmware. So after your at 1.50 firmware (check and make sure under system settings) go HERE to update to 3.52 M33-4 custom firmware.
Then go HERE if you want to update to 3.71 M33-2 custom firmware (3.52 M33-4 must be installed before going to this firmware).

First off did you update to 2.71 official firmware?
If so and you keep getting a red screen then try running HEND again.
This time go to the Photo Icon and press triangle and select slideshow. This usually helps HEND to load on the PSP. You should get a blue or green screen when it loads correctly. If you keep getting the red screen keep trying. It might take a few tries before it works.
Before you can run UPDATE X.YZ you need to be running 2.71 HEND so after you do the slideshow and when it gets done go to system settings and make sure the firmware says HEND on it. if it doesn't then you need to try to load HEND again.

First off I made a small guide myself with a download with all needed files. You said it is a TA-80 motherboard which should not have text on the motherboard. If this is the case then you are safe to follow the below guide. If you have text on the Motherboard then let me know and i will change the files to the proper ones.
Start off by going to System Settings then down to Restore Default Settings. You will need to re-enter your information again after doing this option.
Now format the Memory Stick via computer. Connect the PSP to PC and then right click on the drive letter of your PSP that comes up on the PC. Then go to format and do a format of the Memory Stick (Make sure the QUICK box is unticked).
After you have formated via PC go ahead and format the memory stick via PSP under System Settings.
Now download this file HERE.
Extract the file and you will have a DOWNGRADER folder. Drag all the files and folders that are in that folder (not the folder itself) to the ROOT of your Memory stick. If you do this properly it should ask to overwrite. Choose yes to all. when it does.
Now go to the Photo Icon and select triangle and run the slideshow again. You should get a Green or Blue screen. If the PSP reboots with no screen color or just exits back to XMB go to System Settings then System information and see if it says 2.71HEND if it does then you can run the update x.yz application at Game Menu Memory Stick.
If you get a red screen or it only says 2.71 then you will need to try to load HEND again. Do this till you get 2.71HEND under system software. once it says that then you can run the updater application.

i have text on the LEFT side and it shows IC6001 and NONE on the right,I looked it up
on
some forums people said its TA 80, but maybe they were wrong.
But this IC6001 is definetly not that IC1003 so maybe i need some other downgrader? because i still haven´t found 2.71 to 1.5 downgrader for motherboard IC6001(don´t know other name of it).

Those should be the correct files. What i have read on other sites for your Motherboard it isnt a TA-82 or TA-86 motherboard. So use the files I have provided.
If you can't get HEND to run just keep trying. It could take you a bunch of times before it actually works.

You need to go to the Photo icon and then press triangle then choose slideshow. It will try to load HEND to your PSP System. After running it go to System Settings then System Information and make sure it says 2.71HEND before doing the below step.
After you get HEND loaded you then Go to Game Menu memory Stick and run the UPDATE X.YZ application. This is what downgrades the PSP to 1.50 firmware.
