Hi iam new to this site.....
I would like to ask you guys on how to downgrade my FFCC limited edition psp which i bought in Australia and i think when i bought it came with 4.05 firmware.

i have researched on the Pandora battery and magic memory stic but i dont have the pandora battery but my cousin who has a pandora battery and he is currently running m33 custom firmware can iuse that. Canu u guys tell me on how to downgrade firmware 4.05 then upgrade it to psp m33 custom firmware.

Iam a noob man =(

if you're interested in installing CFW anytime soon you should probably return that one for a different, older, PSP slim...

a new PSP slim coming with OFW 4.05 is nearly guaranteed to be a TA-088 v3 motherboard inside and therefore (at present) unhackable ...

people believe that dark alex will find a way around the protection of the 88 v3 but that hasn't happened yet and may not for a while.

the crisis core package doesn't come with 4.00+ firmware; they were released way earlier and only 77,777 are made.

only way to downgrade a slim is with pandora's battery and magic memory stick.

if it didn't come with 4.05 like you said then ignore my comments about the 88 v3

did it come with 4.05 or did you ever EVER update it... so maybe you forgot what it came with .. . . but now its 4.05...

this question is very important.

if you updated it from 4.01 it could be trouble ... you would need to have had something less than 4 on it originally to be sure you can install CFW...

you should just give it a try anyways... maybe you friend can loan your his pandora battery ??

if you're sure it came with 4.01 though it may very well not work.

no it won't brick ... with the 88 v3 motherboards they just added security that won't let the custom firmware install...
