i am thinking about downgrading my 2.71 to a 1.5 with the easy downgrader ( the one where you plug the psp into a PC and run the eboot on the PC) but i am scared of bricking. has anyone used the easy downgrader, can someone give some feedback in the success rate and my chances of bricking.

thanks for the feedback, i have seen alot more success than bricks so i may just do it.

by the way what does it actually do, does it only place the files or do the whole downgrade for you

it installs all the files but you have to initiate the downgrade. And thats basically trying to view photos on your psp. If you decide to do it just follow the instructions on screen it will tell how when and how to initiate the process.

nah its not true. we need kernel access in order to successfully downgrade and kernel access is something we dont have quite yet on 2.8. plus there is something on the motherboard that "blacklists" firmware 1.5. an exploit around that is currently being worked on tho.

@blade
I would say 10 percent chance at the most. if even that.
