any writing in ur psp's umd drive (even haft seen or anything like that) then ur f***ed...its not that likely to brick but its still very, very risky...

plus for downloads go to:
http://www.freewebs.com/psp_hacking/Downloads.html



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...

My Comp: (will add specs later)

Yeah you can downgrade with a 32MB stick.

Just download the Easy Downgrader from PSP-Hacks and you're ready to go.

(But make sure your PSP is compatible with the downgrader first)

You can download homebrew from:
http://www.psp-hacks.com

We cant tell you where to get ISOs as it is against the forum rules.
Just use torrents!

I dont think it matters which one you use. They should be the same

But I used an EBOOT when I upgraded to 2.00 and downgraded, not sure about the 2.6 downgrader though.

But you can download EBOOTS from the downloads/firmware section of PSP-Hacks

Update it to firmware 2.6 first.

If you have a TA-082 mobo you can't downgrade, if you dont just use the Easy Downgrader to downgrade

the mobo is fine its IC6001 so no probs on the download page it says

'Your PSP CANNOT be a factory 2.50/2.60 PSP! It had to have been updated once before from a previous version or the downgrader will not work, thus a brick'

if i update my factory v2.5 to v2.6 then run 'Easy 2.50/2.60 Downgrader' will this result in bricking my psp or a successful downgrade?

I'm pretty sure it wont result in a brick.

But try asking someone who has already downgraded.
