    You could try the WAB Version Changer to play a UMD movie if its trying to force you to use 2.0 insted of 1.5.

    Sonic3D you say?

    /me wants.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    no, i think it makes your 1.5 think/say its a 2.00


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,968 ✭✭✭jcoote

    I did it and it works perfectly, you need the ac power connected though. The great thing about is you can play umd movies and games that require 2 and you can still use the UMD emulator as well. Sweet program

    "these programs will write to the PSP’s flash memory and as with any programs that do so, you must use caution as they could brick (permanently damage) your PSP. Programs that can help you do this are:

    WAB Version Changer v2.5 – Download [here].
    PSPSet v0.9 by Placasoft – Download [here].”
    from : http://pspupdates.qj.net/


    IS it only 2.5 ? that could brick it ?
    is v2 safe to use?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭techguy


    I'm just after downgrading and it works perfect so far although it was pretty scary cause of all the talk about making a fancy brick...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,264 ✭✭✭JBoyle4eva


    Ok, I'm gonna get shot for asking this, but could you please tell me the benifits of downgrading my PSP and how can I play these old game on emulators.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,009 ✭✭✭rabbitinlights

    Google is your friend there are plenty off sites that have them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭techguy


    are they just standard roms?are they not converted for the PSP or anything?..

    Thanks..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,942 ✭✭✭Mac daddy


    Correct they are just standard roms - you just need a suitable emu to load them ;)

    They are not converted specialy for the psp.

    This is really stupid, but if your psp has had 2.00 from the first time you used it, can you still downgrade to 1.5?

    i assume you can?

    my understanding is that yes you can downgrade


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,248 ✭✭✭4Xcut


    Yes, you definitely can.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    If you have 2.01 or above though, you're fu*ked until somebody figures out a way to downgrade them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    i jsut skipped all this after the first few posts.

    Downgraders from 2.0 to 1.5 have been out how long? months?

    Whats the crack with this one?

    Legit?

    Theres nothing illegal bout getting any downgrader software your free to use any firmware version you like, 1.5 isnt like illegal, nor is any software released as a downgrader =/

    For god sakes downgraders are avalaible from eveery version, I went from bloody 2.1 down to 1.5.

    Get with it =)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    You went from 2.1? Do you mean 2.01? Link us!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,421 ✭✭✭projectmayhem


    there will be an eboot file to work with 2.5 firmware. not necessarily to downgrade, but to run homebrew...

    some crafty buggers found an exploit through the GTA game save file


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 599 ✭✭✭Cabelo


    I'm unsure but as far as I know there's no downgrader from 2.01

    Yeah, Im looking forward to that. It will mean I wont have to keep swapping from 1.5 to 2.00 to switch between my SNES games and GTA.
