I would say maybe something doesn't work. I'm just curious because the other thread about the guy who swapped his psp for 5$ for 2.00 there was someone who said maybe he sent his psp to sony and got back a lower firmware.
(It had some 2.8 homebrew but I deleted it, and currently has the psp anti theft) |

Homebrew ain't that bad now, it's just the ISOs that are the problem! |

Meh.. iv gone on for toooo long... lol
