you need an old grand theft auto for that one incase you didn't know

I have used that downgrader about 6 times now without any problems. Nothing special to look out for.

and you need to be at a firmware 2.5- 2.6

yeah...here's a suggestion...if you've got FW 2.0 the use the 2.0 downgrader not the 2.5-2.6 one

http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/att...9&d=1138417454

and download the 1.5 firmware update

http://www.psp-hacks.com/download.php?id=4

Now once you have downloaded the Zip Package and unzipped it with either
windows zip or winrar, winzip etc. the file layout is as follows.

x:/h.bin
x:/index.dat
x:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE/eboot.pbp (this is the 1.50 pbp eboot file)
x:/PSP/PHOTO/overflow.tif

(Where "x" is the drive your computer has given the Memory Stick)

Make sure PSP is Plugged into the AC Adapter

Now Exit the USB Mode of the PSP, and goto the PHOTO MENU, this will now
launch the version changer. The PSP Light will go off after the version
changer has done it stuff.
If the PSP does not turn off automatically you can do a hard reset yourself after the required amount of time passes. Wait approx 10-15 seconds and power the PSP back on. Once it is on Enable USB Mode and check to see if the following
file exists.

MEMORYSTICK:/index.dat.bak

THIS TRICKS THE PSP INTO THINKING IT'S A 1.0

If so all is well, goto the game menu and Launch the PSP Update and simply
follow the onscreen instructions to update your psp. The update will get to
99% and Fail, No cause for concern this is still correct. The psp will now
do a faily length restart just let it play out. Now one of two things will
happen either the PSP will restart or it will turn off. If the PSP does not turn off automatically you can perform a hard reste to turn it off. After the LED goes off and the psp has turned off.. Wait 10-15 Seconds and power the PSP back on. You now have a 1.50 PSP, Congratulations.
