this is what he said:::

You?ve all heard & read about it ? now here it is! Using 0okm?s discovered method, dark_thug was able to produce a successful method to downgrade, or better known as ?softdown,? your TA-082 PSP. But, the catch! There?s always a catch? Before you get all excited, there are a few worrisome consequences you must consider before attempting this? As follows:

It?s likely you?ll never be able to upgrade/flash your PSP with another firmware version again
You can only ?softdown? to either 1.50 or 2.71 SE-C; as mentioned above, you cannot revert back afterwards
If you select 1.50
Attempting to access anything under the ?settings? menu will cause your PSP to crash
If you select 2.71 SE-C
You may experience lock-ups during certain games
There?s also a slight chance you may brick your PSP during the initial softdown procedure. I?ve yet to hear any reports of that though.

Continue forward at your own risk!

Instructions (follow carefully!):

Use Dark_AleX?s Update Flasher to change your TA-082 to 2.50 (if it isn?t already)
Download 0okm?s 2.50 TA-082 Check & Dump to dump your firmware
Enter your serial #, specify the path to your 2.50 dump, and select your desired firmware in the Windows executable. (Screen shot below)
It will then generate the downgrader unique to your PSP.
Copy the ?UPDATE? directory to your PSP under x:/PSP/GAME
Download and install the Noobz eLoader
Launch eLoader and select ?UPDATE? from menu
(click to enlarge)

You have now started the downgrade and will soon have a patched 1.50 bootstrap.

Once completed, reboot your PSP and hit ?O? to restore settings. Viola!

Its also been noted, if you?ve chosen the 1.50 softdown path, that it may be possible to restore the settings menu by flashing a clean 1.50 registry with a tool such as X-Flash. Very risky however. Again ? use at your own risk.

Must say, nice job dark_thug!

oh i see,i only has it once coz of flashing files in 3.02 but its ok.
well i tried downgrading to 2.50 before works like a charm.
but the problem for this new downgrader is that u cannot change anything in settings coz it will crash and bring u the the Bsod.

pspjunior is rite though.this is a beta test i think to see weather it can be downgraded but u cannot update it yet at the moment so i think it is totally useless rite.
i rather wait for a updated or better version of the downgrader

yup the the good part in downgrading is u do not need to emulate 1.50 anymore.coz still the same u need to emulate 2.71 to play iso games.weird.hmm i wonder if there is an autoboot for devhook so that when u boot your 1.50 psp devhook pops out so that u do not need to run it

hahhah this is a major breakthrough i have to say! now they will definitly work on a better methodd and improve so we can upgrade adn all of this! but u said u can get SE-C aswell? how if the only way to insatll is from 1.5?

Edit: you can now update from 1.5 to 2.6+
on SE-C you can recover to 1.5 again and then upgrade again! its getting there ppl few more days!!!
