Just when you thought Santa (Dark_Alex) couldn't surprise us with anymore presents for this holiday season, he has! We have a downgrader from Dark_Alex with the help of Mathieulh (right-hand man) and Harleyg. Just today it was announced that 2.71 PSPs running Dark_Alex's HEN-D will be able to downgrade their PSPs to a lower firmware (1.50) with this new program.

Unlike previous downdaters that require 1.50 helper files (illegal to distribute), this downgrader uses the raw 1.50 update file which is not illegal to distribute, so this process is much easier than previous downdaters released by Dark_Alex.

This program is specifically designed for 2.71 HEN-D users with a TA-082 motherboard. HEN-D, which enables 2.71 users to execute homebrew via the XMB, will be required for this downgrade process, and if you do not have it you can download it at the link provided below. Dark_Alex has also provided a detailed installation of this process detailed in the readme (please read the readme after you download).
  1. Copy the UPDATE and idstoragechange folders into /PSP/GAME/
  2. Get the official sony 1.50 eboot and put it in the /PSP/GAME/UPDATE folder with the name of UPDATE.PBP
  3. Run HEN-D if you are not already running it.
  4. Execute the idstoragechange. It needs 75% battery. It will change some keyes of your idstorage needed to downgrade the ta-082.
  5. The program will exit to the XMB. Now execute the generic downgrade, which will show in the xmb as "Update X.YX" in the psp language.
  6. The generic downgrader will also need 75% battery. IT will downgrade your psp to 1.50.
  7. At the end, it will ask you to press X to restart the psp. Do it.
  8. If all went fine, you'll receive a blue screen telling you to press O. Do it, and reenter your settings. Welcome to 1.50.
  9. If things didn't go that fine, you'll have a non-functional psp, aka brick.
Warning: As always, there is a chance that you may brick your PSP running a downgrader, so please try this at your own risk and follow directions exactly.

i also wanna know if you can downgrade and then upgrade to3.02 oe-b

thinkin about it, if everythin is being rewriten by the generic downgrader, that means, we would have a full fledged 1.5 psp. Therefore, you could thoretically upgrade to 3.02 oe-b without any problems.... thats juss a thought tho....ill wait till sum1 answers...

Even though i don't have TA-082, I think that DAX is THE BEST psp programmer arround. 0omk is good but he is an ass as he finds stuff but never shares the information. I am running 3.02 OE-B But this is still good for the TA-082 Owners. I am happy for you and hope that you don't brick your PSPs.

Dark-alex.org is an imposter. Don't you remeber reading aout the brickers people downloaded? You want dax.lan.st

DAX.LAN.ST is DAX's site. All others are imposters.

Dark_AleX is amazing, but alot of people who work on devs and release source code are unsong heroes as well. Let's not forget Noobz.eu

notice that the 2.71 dg came out before the ta-082 downgrader not to call you ignorant but we are a long way from a 2.81 dg for normal psps not to mention the ta types

   Re: PSPZorZ - 2006-12-27
 » d

It isn't that hard to DG TA-082's to FW 2.50 I think so once an exploit is found on 2.81, you'll be able to DG to 2.50 pretty soon and then upgrade to 2.71 then DG to 1.50... then upgrade to 3.02 OE... wow that's gonna take a while :/

   Re: Joshua (Unregistered) - 2006-12-27
 » Haha, I KNWO we cant dg 2.81 yet ive had 3 psp since launch, i should know.

But 2 got broken and now i have a freaking Ta-82:| so yea im stuck at 2.81 till they dg it. so yes i know, im not ignorant.

Now I have a question though. Does a TA-082 PSP have to come with 2.71 installed out of the box, or could you have updated to 2.71 in order to use this downdater?

Now i´m really lost ... i have a psp but can´t tell what board it has someone gently posted a pic to identify your board saying that if you get IC6001 it´s not a TA-082 but if you get 1300IC on the other side it is a TA-082 now my problem is that my psp has both those numbers on one side IC6001 the other 1003IC or something ... anyone can share some light over this plz ?
