[psp fan]

Well iv got a version 2.6 psp i researched and researche eventully got most of the detials to downgrading but then i got a easy full version of the downgrader and im about to get a gta libety city stories un pathced i know i dont have a ta 082 model and everything the question is eloader lol sorry if im being a right idiot but once i have dongraded do i still need eloader? plus how will i put devhook on my psp? what is e loader? and can i also say DCEMU is the BEST!:)

[Kramer]

well you could upgrade to 2.71 so you dont have to get gta and downgrade from there. To your question no you wont need eloader anymore.

[brainpan]

I f I understood you correctly, you asked if you will still need an eloader(to play homebrew?) after you have downgraded. The answer is NO, assuming you're downgrading to 1.5. Not sure what else you would downgrade to though. Hope this helps.:)

[psp fan]

well if i did upgrade to 2.71 is there a easy downgrader that would downgrade me from there?

[Kramer]

yep on psp-hacks there is it comes with the 1.5 dump

[psp fan]

is it pretty straight forward?

[Kramer]

I dont know never used it but im pretty sure it isnt hard.

un fortunzntly im in europe uk so that wont work what should i do?

[Fanjita]

Your PSP region shouldn't matter for the downgrader.

You can install the US version of the firmware on a UK PSP, for instance, and there's no difference or problem.

[Kramer]

it doesnt matter which region update you use ther all the same theres no chance of bricking.

[psp fan]

one more q do i need the charger in and psp 100%?

[psp fan]

and nothing will hapenn hopefully will it?

[Kramer]

yeah its best to have it fully charged.
you should be alright but dont blame me if anything bad happens.

[psp fan]

dont say that and ofcouse it wont its charged at 77%is it kk?

[Russoxley187]

If you use Dark Alexes downgrader all you have to do it hook it all up, and click your way through...
next, next, next yeah... VERS 1.5...
Very Simple..
PSP-Hacks dot com

[Kramer]

yeah you should be alright to go

[psp fan]

well right know at this precise moment im upgrading to 2.71 its ok right know

[psp fan]

iv got a 2.71!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kramer]

alright now you just have to set up the downgrader.

[psp fan]

im downgrading and the red screen isnt apperimg

[ExcruciationX]

Just keep trying until you get the red screen... and when you get it, leave it alone until the memory stick light stops flashing.

[K.L.]

It will come eventually.

So, when you are at 1.5, make sure you upgrade to 2.00 and then downgrade to 1.5 again.

Not doing so is very risky.

I thought you didn't have to do that for this downgrader. :confused: I guess I was wrong

[Prasoc]

That is the safest option to upgrade to 2.00 and downgrade back to 1.50 because 2.6 and 2.71 downgraders become a glitchy 1.5. So if you actually run the 1.50 update when you have "1.00" (2.0 in disguise), it will install it with no glitches :)

[Spider_Loc]

is ur psp downgraded yet?

[psp fan]

I HAVE A 1.5 PSP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank u guys i dont know why do i have to upgrade again?

[Kramer]

dont worry about up/downgrading its not neccesary
but you will now need Devhook to play 2.0+ umds

[psp fan]

thanks guys yeah and plus were do i download devhook?

[ACID]

Just google devhook .45 or .46

[psp fan]

Your welcome! :)

Really, I don't know why people say a 1.5 downgraded from 2.6 or 2.71 or whatever would work bad or anything.

Mine was downgraded from 2.6 to 1.5 with the old one, via GTA and eLoader, and no problems whatsoever until now.

Yeah, that's what I originally thought! :confused:
