My Mood:  | | | | | trying 2.81 downgrade to 1.5 but cant tell what the motherboard is, help!!!
hi,
i have a psp which i got at christmas (5 months ago) and have heard about these hacks, homebrew and such and such. now, i want to down grade my psp to version 1.5 from 2.81 but there is nothing written where the motherboard name should be (by the umd drive). Is it safe to downgrade without knowing what the motherboard type is? I am willing 2 get gta liberty city stories if i need 2. Is there anything i can do at all to get it to 1.5 firmware??? sum1 plz help!!! ps: i will try and enclose a picture if possible.

Instead, open your UMD tray and look at the top right corner of your PSP and check to see if it says 'TA-083'; if it doesn't say that, then you are safe. If you do have the unpatched GTA:LCS, then Google the term '3.03 firmware download'; that will most likely find you the 3.03 update! Find the appropriate downgrader at: N00bz!

Points: 3.61 Donate | | If you can't see where the motherboard is written, then you don't have a TA-082. so you're safe. But don't go buying GTA:LCS at a retail tore, because they all sell the patched version (which will not work with the downgrader). So what I am suggesting, is either borrow the game from a friend who you know bought GTA:LCS around the time when it was released or you can rent from a store and hopefully that will work with the downgrader; and if it doesn't, then at least you can have some fun
