Downgrading:
Here we are going to downgrade your psp.
Warning & Notes:
- This downgrader is for v3.03 only. But if you have v2.81 - v3.02, no problem - you can just upgrade to v3.03 to use the downgrader.
- You need a copy of the unpatched GTA:Liberty City Stories UMD. No ISOs, no patched UMDs, not Vice City Stories. See here for some info on how to check if your version is patched. The most reliable way : the unpatched disks have the v2.0 firmware update on them.
- This downgrader is intended to enable homebrew. Homebrew is NOT the same as piracy. Don't be a thieving loser - buy the games you play.
- The downgrader will work on all current PSP hardware (TA-079 - TA-086). Patching of TA-082+ is automatic in the downgrader.
- You downgrade at your own risk. There is always a chance of bricking, although we have done everything we can think of to make this process safe.
Warning: After downgrading from 3.03 to 1.5, there are some remnants of 3.03 left in flash. If you later try to re-upgrade to 3.03 and repeat the downgrade, things will break. At some later point, we will work on a cleaner that will remove these extra files. Until then, enjoy! (Don’t worry, upgrading to 3.03 OE firmwares still works fine).
Requirements:
- Original unpatched version of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (any region). You can tell if it is unpatched if the 2.00 update is included on the disc.
- 3.03 Downgrader (this package)
Download
- 1.50 Update
Download
- 3.03 Update if you are on firmware 2.81 to 3.02
Download
Instructions:
1 - If you have a 3.03 PSP skip to step 6.
2 - Download 3.03 update (see requirements above) and place the file in :/PSP/GAME/UPDATE
3 - On the PSP, run the 3.03 update from the memory stick under the Game menu.
4 - Delete :/PSP/GAME/UPDATE
5 - Download the 3.03 downgrader (see above) and copy the contents of the folder MS_ROOT to your memory stick.
6 - Unzip the 1.50 update to a temporary folder. Rename the EBOOT.PBP to UPDATE.PBP and copy it to :/PSP/GAME/UPDATE/ . DO NOT OVERWRITE PSP/GAME/UPDATE/EBOOT.PBP!
7 - Load GTA: Liberty City Stories.
8 - It should get to loading savegame, then the screen will clear to black and fill with a light blue colour, then the PSP will reset itself (if this does not happen see section below).
9 - Check that HEN is running by going to system settings, then to “System Information” and it should show up as system version 303 HEN.
10 - If it is showing up as HEN then go to the memory stick and run the x.yz update.
11 - If you have an unpatched TA-082 or higher motherboard,
you will be prompted to allow the downgrader to patch your motherboard so it can be safely downgraded. The downgrader will not let you proceed without patching, if your motherboard requires it.
12 - Before the downgrader does anything to your PSP it will ask for you to agree to what it is doing, if you no longer want to continue press the Right Shoulder Button (R-TRIGGER).
13 - Once you have agreed to start the downgrade do not unplug the PSP, or try and restart it.
14 - Once finished the PSP will ask you to press X, and reset itself.
15 - If it comes up saying that the settings are corrupt, press x to continue, this will mean you will need to re-enter the settings for network connections into your PSP, otherwise go to step 17.
16 - Load the included NetConfigBackup application in your PSP, and select to restore, this will take the backup that was done of the network config that was done automatically during the downgrade.
17 - You’re done! Hopefully you now have a 1.50 PSP. Enjoy it responsibly.
