Yes, finally something without the use of Pandora.
I'll definitely be saving this... Thanks for the post CaptainMorgan4. :)
No problem Sonicboy 101 I'm just glad to have my PSP back, and yeah and I hope others can use this to avoid time consuming Pandora procedures.
edit: Why hasn't this been moved to the PSP News Section yet, it's real and it works I've tested it.
please don't lash out at me, but just checking-this will ONLY work for people who have had custom firmwares right? My psp was given to me by someone who knew nothing of the scene , and he had it upgraded to 3.52 official sony fw. so that's where my psp is at and i am looking for a way to either downgrade to 1.5 or to a good custom fw. so far i only know about pandora and was hoping for something more simple. So if anyone can help please do so , I appreciate it. thanks. :o
your only option is the pandoras batteryQuote:

Thanks a bunch Captain the downgrader work like a charm on my Fat PSP, i got frustrated with my CFW 3.71 m33, my psx games kept freezing even with the 1.50 patch. I never had the same problem with 3.52 M33-4 weird. Anyways thanks again now back to 3.52 M33-4!
you will need either pandora or use one of the game exploits which requires unpatched lumnies or GTA LCSQuote:

No problems guys, yeah I just finished getting back on 3.52-2 (most stable IMO, CPU in XMB and etc) and ordering my emulators and fixing all my settings. Feels good to be back, and enjoy this downgrader. And to Donleon21 yeah this is for getting from 3.71 M33 Custom firmware to 1.5, not what you need.
well thanks anyways i thought it would have been to good to be true for me, good app for those who can use it though, good work.
does this downgrader work with psp slim with cfw 3.71 m33?
I have not tested it with the slim, try it, it won't brick your PSP anymore than it is so you got nothing to lose. I don't really see why it won't work, please try it and post your results.
If only I would had it last week...
I haven´t been able to get my stuff together to try the unbricker yet, but I hope tomorrow hehe, also I´m getting a new PC on wednesday (at last, I bought the other one like 7 years ago, so you can imagine how it was, maybe I´ll restore it too so now we will use both here at my house)
Also might try this as well cause the unbricker will get it to 3.71M33, and I still want to hang around 3.52M33 a little longer, thanks for the app
i can try it but my worry is that 1.50 fw won't work on psp slim, right?
Oh yea what am I thinking, my bad man I think I got lower the hits on this bowl here I guess.
got that clear man... thanks
thanks...will try this one...
DL in progress...
Smoke
one of the files is corrupted in the game folder on my memory stick and one of the files opens just to say the game could not be started. please help!!!!!
tested...
it works for me...
now im back again in 3.71m33...
Smoke...
Wait so no matter what type of brick you get (on 3.71 M33) it can be fixed with this?????
No matter if it's a full brick you can still access the recovery menu? I know that's kindof what it says, but i'd still like confirmation =D
Anyway, I use to think recovery menu only worked for semi-bricks
No, this is entirely not the case. If you can't access the recovery menu, then you can't use this method and pandora is the only way that'll help.Quote:

No. The PSP Slim cannot run 1.5.Quote:

To the one guy who says it showed up as corrupted data, looks to me that your on a Sony firmware and not a custom firmware, this application is not for you. Well yeah if you are fully bricked and can't get to recovery obviously tis isn't going to work. But if you can access Recovery then this WILL work for you, and it's INCREDIBLY easy.
Argh, I hate it when you install 3.52 M33 it takes ages to load up first time.
Scared me to death.
How come so many peeps brick their psp?? what are you guys doing wrong??
or are you bricking for fun?? lol. << I know that's not the case
I'm om 3.71 m33+1.50cfw. What seem to be the problem. D-A would never release junk. Before u install 3.71m33 go 2 recovery and set homebrew to 3.52.
Make sure u have the rite 3.71.PBP along with the two files in the Update to the game folder. It load just like sony frame ware.
At the end press x then manually shut down ur PSP.
There u go 3.71 m33.
Now u can add the 1.50 kernel.
Finito!
No need for the downgrader this cfw is tha best.
Can I use this on a stock working psp with the 3.71 firmware? Do I still need GTA or Lumines?
U need pandora battery & magic memory stick. U can only get recovery by having a cfw.Quote:

hey captainmorgan4 i tryied that downgrader but it did not work? i did what the read me told me2 do when i ran psp/game i found a update and a corrupted file or game please help me out thanx
Thank you nice program
Shadow first go on your PSP and go the the left and look for system settings, from there go to system information, then see which firmware you are on. I don't think your on a custom firmware so this application isn't for you, but check your firmware then post back here.
hey captainmorgan4 i check i have 3.71 but i use 2 have a lower firmware dont remmeber which thou. i upgrade it my psp twice b4 having 3.71. and what do u mean by customfirmware? and sorry 4 asking so many questions im kind of new2 all this psp homebrew and fastloaders
I signed up just to download your file but I figured I should at least say thanks. Tested and working.
Well isn't a full brick when you have no recovery menu, well i atlease consider it to be. I personally have fully bricked and it aint no fun and this can't fix it you have to get pandora. Never,ever let stupid theme flashers mess with your flash now kiddies it's a bad mistake and you'll regret it.
Yeah Shadow this is for 3.71 M33 NOT 3.71, your on a Sony firmware, you need to downgrade. If you want to be able to play emulators and stuff you need to get on a custom firmware. To do so your ONLY choice is to search and do the Pandora Battery procedure. After you downgrade to 1.5 using Pandora then you can go to a custom firmware, for instance 3.71 M33. This application just downgrades the custom firmware 3.71 to 1.5, it's not what you need. Thanks to all you guys who used this and enjoyed it, glad to hear it's of use to some people.
oh ok so if i do the pandora battery i can use the emulators and stuff right. but does the pandorabattery work on any psp sony firmware? cuz i found the pandora battery but its requirements say i need a customfirmware such as OE,M33, WC or psp with the 1.5 original kernel.
