It says on http://www.qj.net/2-5-2-6-Downgrader-FINAL-Released-/pg/49/aid/57717 that the success rate (in their forums) is 93%...thats pretty risky...if I wait more will it be less risky?

And can someone send me the 2.5/2.6 downgrader plz?? For my email PM me..

P.S.
Just out of curiosity how come it's 93% success rate...shouldn't it be 100%?? Why is there a 7% failure risk?? Is it because ppl make mistakes?? Or is it the downgrader's fault?

If I insult you...don't get offended...my insults are "friendly insults"...I know this sounds stupid (ridiculous) but I am fet up of writing, "no offense" in my posts...

The reason why some people bricked is they must have shut off the PSP or something which interrupted the flashing process. Trust me, its pretty safe!

This might sound noobish but I wouldn't ask this if there was no chance of my psp being bricked but there is so I have to "annoy" you ppl with this question:

How do I downgrade? Can sum1 tell me step by step?

Is it like I download the downdater then I load it with GTA LCS and then what?

If I insult you...don't get offended...my insults are "friendly insults"...I know this sounds stupid (ridiculous) but I am fet up of writing, "no offense" in my posts...

Put the DOWNDATERTEST FOLDER which contains the EBOOT into your GAME folder of your MS.
Place the DOWNDATER folder in the ROOT of your MS.
Load up GTA as normal and select the DOWNDATERTEST.
Once you select this there is no going back, make sure you have at least 70% battery or just plug in the AC.
I will not be held responsible for the out come of your actions.

@emachine:ms is memory stick (i think)

@sudds:
I have another few things I need to clear up and thx for taking the time to answer me..

Questions:
1.When you say to put the DOWNDATERTEST FOLDER which contains the EBOOT in my game folder, u mean the 2.50 downdater folder, right?
2. When you say place the downdater folder in the root of your memory stick, my question is JUST the folder?

DONT EVEN ATTEMPT THE DOWNGRADE UNTILL YOU HAVE THE 1.5 DUMP
you'll need to get that off of someone who will send you it - as its illegal to distribute

1. if you have 2.5, open the 2.5 downdater folder, inside of which you will find DOWNDATERTEST folder - copy this to the GAME folder on your psp
2. DOWNDATER folder goes straight into root - the DOWNDATER folder has two more folder and two files inside it (cant tell you names without checking) these need to be there also

and finally

heres a guide - http://blindraven.net/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=14...
