2.71 TA-082 Firmware PSP's Now Able to Downgrade! |
Listed in: Firmware, Hacks & Exploits Tags: downgrader, psp firmware, Sony, TA-082, XMB
Ó
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).
- Copy the UPDATE and idstoragechange folders into /PSP/GAME/
- Get the official sony 1.50 eboot and put it in the /PSP/GAME/UPDATE folder with the name of UPDATE.PBP
- Run HEN-D if you are not already running it.
- Execute the idstoragechange. It needs 75% battery. It will change some keyes of your idstorage needed to downgrade the ta-082.
- 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.
- The generic downgrader will also need 75% battery. IT will downgrade your psp to 1.50.
- At the end, it will ask you to press X to restart the psp. Do it.
- 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.
- If things didn't go that fine, you'll have a non-functional psp, aka brick.

Do you guys realize how long the TA-082 users have been waiting for this?!
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?

BTW if you visit his site he has already updated the file becouse of a glich in the hack i hope pspupdates has the newer one, don't want any bricked psp's becouse of slow coverage....
my buddy has a TA-082 or 86 i can't tell, i think i'll wait a day or to before i tell him about this just to make sure everything works. i don't want to be responsible for bricking his psp.
I said it once and i'll say it again Dark_Alex IS GOD!!

- Copy all contents inside MS_ROOT to the root of your memory stick.
- Go to the PHOTO viewer of the XMB and enter in the folder "HEN".
- If the psp just freeze, reboot your psp and try again. Currently the tiff is very unstable and it
is only executed sometimes. I'll try to improve that in the future.
- The first time you run the program, you will see quickly a blue screen, and after that a screen
that can be of two colors:
* Red: the files couldn't be written to the flash (it hapens a few times). Just keep trying.
* Green: The files were written succesfully. After that, the xmb will be rebooted. Now you can run
the homebrew in format prepared for 2.71. (see details below).
- As mentioned before, the patch will remain resident in memory, and even entering sleep mode
won't delete it. Only a hardware reset will remove the program from memory.
- When you do a hardware reset, you'll have to run the tiff again.
This time there won't be green or red screen, just a blue screen and xmb reboot, since
this time there is no need to write to the flash.
Note: the files pspbtknf.txt, pspbtknf_game.txt, pspbtknf_update r, and systemctrl.prx in the root
of the memory stick are only needed the first time the program is executed. After that you
can delete those. However, don't delete patch.bin, h.bin and the folder with the tiff, since
you will need those the next time you do a hard reset and want to run the program again.
Note2: Once the program is loaded, it is independant of the memory stick contents. So you can
freely swap memory sticks.

My story begins with a psp with firmware 2,5 and then I discovered Homebrew/iso and hacks but still updated to 2,6 to play my game that i bhought.. Then updating to 2,71 for stupid locoroco.. Then AGAIN updating to 2,8 cus of some other games.. But I stayed there, didnt updated.. Waited and waited and finally a 2,8 downgrader gets out! I couldnt wait it took 1min and I was allready downgrading.. Saw the incredible 3,02 oe-a and installed it.. ALL THANKX TO DARK_ALEX!! He has made almost all the downgraders out there..! and even more.. I even thought he worked at Sony! could someone tell me if he does? Anyway hes a really good coder and I hope he still continue.. And Dark_alex enjoy your life everyone loves you!

Then I upgraded to DaX's 2.71 SE's, and the 3.02 OE's.
Best decision i've ever made on my PSP. GO MAN. It's perfect and wonderful and 5,000,000,000x better then 1.5.

But I respect your decision!
And at least welcome to the world of 1.5! It's much more fun there. Just remember to get DevHook.

the official 3.02 update then run the 3.02 update and when its half way updating turn your psp off and then turn it back on. then your psp will start up and continue the update installing 3.02 oe-a files.
thats how i did it.

I trusted his 2.80 downdater right after he released it.
I downdated my 2.80 to 1.50 and now am very very (very very very) happy on 3.02 OE B, Ookm is a genius and I still don't see why people think he's a fake. At least backup your claim

Thats what I did with my PSP that I purchased yesterday! I upgraded it to 2.71 and then ran the aformentioned software. Werd!

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...

This news is a breaktrough in the PSP scene, posted all over the world by now. Congrats all PSP owners !
Many thanks to: HarleyG, Mathieulh, Dark_Alex and not to forget 0okm, for his PSP work, there is NO such thing in the DEV world that sounds: i'm better than you because i developped A and you only developped B.
0okm did a wonderfull job, releasing his 2.80 downgrader.
Dax did so much work so good, i can't still believe it.
Also his helpers, Mathieulh and Harleyg, thanks.
GO NOW devs and fight for life, because there is so much more 2 explore on these last glorious days of 2006, and a fantastic 2007 !

power down the psp (until is completely off)
wait 10 sec (to be on the safe side)
start it up again (make sure no UMD in drive)
go to "hend" folder in "photo"
you should see a "BLUE" screen and then the psp will restart into the xmb
NOW, you are running hend...
now try to downgrade according to instructions
good luck and let me know how it goes
Reply
Update to 2.71 first and use as directed.
Although 1.5 is wonderful, I'm sure we're all waiting to see if 3.02 OE-B works. Excellent work from DAX as usual.

i have a ta-082 2.71 running henc with autoboot thing
and i figured i should uninstall the autoboot to henc in order to install henD so when i uninstalled it, the psp rebooted and now when it tries to go to the xmb when it starts up it freezes. I've tried everything and can't get it to work. Games will run fine if they auto run from umd but it just won't go to the xmb.. any suggestions?

If OE-B recovery not compatible with TA-082, you cannot I repeat you CANNOT downgrade back to 1.50 or reflash the 3.02 OE-B if u semi-brick it at OE-B level.
Also I strongly believe that when n if OE-C comes out, maybe OE-B user need to reinstall all over again to update to OE-C. So my point here is, if you can't downgrade back, how to update to OE-C. Then you will stuck at OE-B for a long long time.
Please someone or more ppl answer my concern. We need more solid confirmation here.
Reply
BTW: If I do turn the system off, when I turn it back on do I have to rerun HEN-D or can I just run the downgrader?

Now with this new downgrader, it contains idstoragechange folder. 1st the idstoragechange r will change the ic1003 unique id to a more friendly version like the ta-079 n 081 model. after tat, ic-1003 will think tat itself is the ta-079 or 081 n so approve the 1.50 bootstrap thus allow the downgrade process.
Now the problem is after u upgrade to 3.02oe-b, will the unique id change? if i change, u cant downgrade back. so u will stuck in 3.02 oe-b for quite sometime.

i have a ta-082 2.71 running henC with autoboot thing

I've tried everything and can't get it to work. Games will run fine if they auto run from umd but it just won't go to the xmb.. any suggestions? It's just as good as bricked..

It could also be so that you have 1.00 homebrew (which I believe were compatible with eLoader and xLoader). On 1.50 you need Kxploited homebrews, btw just get IR Shell, from there you can start non Kxploited homebrew.

The other guy is talking in theory, but the IDChange allows the 1.5 subnet firmware to load 3.02 OE, it will work fine.

Just bought a PSP for my daughter and found this ta-082 downgrader (WOOT) thx to DA you da man!! I downgraded last night and all went smooth thx to the excellent instructions! My question is now that it says it's version 1.50 is it still a TA-082 1.50 or is it now an official 1.50 if u understand what i'm sayin??
I see on the 2.71 version I could load a picture then set it as a wallpaper background but with 1.50 it does not have that option is there a way to do that with the 1.50?
Any info would be great...
Thx guys...

Run HEN-D if you are not already running it. how do i do that
on the psp or the computer, and where do i get the software if its for the computer i have downloaded may homebrew this and that , WHAT DO I DO???
Reply
I was wondering, before I do this to my Brand new psp, what are the odds of it Majorly Fucl{ing it up??
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I do hace a TA-082 by tha way.
I CANT BELIEVE IT FINALLY HAPENED TO US TOO!!!!
YAY!!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Before I go any further, I want to know if it is possible to fix a psp once it gets bricked.
(Does it void my warranty??... )(I would assume as mutch...)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems that 99.9 % of tha people that have these psp's got it to work....so....Im already a big time hacker,
But Im New to Homebrew...And this does work right?
What about upgradeing to 3.02 OE-A Afterwards?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What Im shooting for is to be able to run Iso's off of my memory stick pro duo (2GB)
Im not really all that interested in emulateing anything really..

Well, Thanks Everyone!

My psp was a ta-082 2.50.
I dl the 2.71 and updated .
the down to 1.50
then to 3.02 0e A , then to oe b
Reply
I then went a puchased a new motherboard 1.5 from Japan. I have the same problem. So either I have bought a bricked motherboard which I cannot test in another psp or there is another problem with it.
If any has experience the same problem, I look forward from hearing from you.

- At the end, it will ask you to press X to restart the psp. Do it.
- 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.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I ran hen-D and then Rand the Id storagechange, All went fine but then when I execute the downgrader,
It shows the PSP thingie (Color splash thingie, that fades awat into blackness and it says it needs 75% battery, and then exits to the XMB???
When I check System settings, it says under firmware2.71 HEN-D.....
Its not bricked... Everythings fine.... WTF???
Reply
as "Update X.YX" in the psp language.
----------------------------------------------------------------
My upgrade file in my game folder, Shows on my PSP as PSP Update Ver. X.YZ??
is this right.... Did Justin B. Make a mistake above???
HELPPPPPPPP!!!! !!
HEY...........Wait a sec.....My battery is at 55%!!!
Does it need to be charged to 75% in the system even tuough I have it plugged into the wall....................
.....Ill charge it to 100% and then Execute the downgrade.
Wish me Luck!!

I'm hoping that the 3.02 oe-b will play my backed up umd's without having one in the drive as then I really have no need for the umd drive anymore. Can anyone confirm the direct loading of iso's from oe-b doesn't need a umd in the drive? thanks to DA and all his crew, I have had my psp for about a month and found out the day after I bought mine about the homebrew scene...and that I had a dreaded ta-82 mb, but now I can enjoy all the greatest everyone has to offer!!!

I wrote down how I did it:
First I went here: http://ul59.rapidshare.com/files/9174187/2.71_TA-082_EASY_Downgrader_0.1_by_csfreakno1.zip and downloaded the file.
1. I then extracted the files to my hard drive.
2. I connected my PSP to my PC and backed up ALL my files off of my memory stick to my hard drive.
3. I formatted my memory stick.
4. I made sure I had a full 100% battery and pulled out the UMD disk that was in my UMD drive.
5. I connected my PSP to my PC
6. I ran 2.71_TA-082_-_1.50.exe from my hard drive
7. WinRAR self-extractor popped up, I made the destination folder my PSP's memory stick drive letter, mine is drive "J"
8. after all the files transferred over, I shut my PSP off fully by holding down the off button for 6 seconds.
9. upon the PSP rebooting I went to the photo menu in the PSP, then pressed "X" on the photo named HEND.
10. My PSP rebooted. DO NOT TRY TO DOWNGRADE YET! COMPLETLY TURN OFF THE PSP, THEN RUN 'HEND" again! (HEND is funny, you need to run it at least twice because the very first time it runs, it does something, I don't know what)
11. Once it reboots, then you can run the "idstoragechange ", once it runs, press X.
12. once the PSP reboots, you can run the "Update X.YX"
13. Once the update is done, you will get a blue error screen, just press "O"
14. that should be it
This is not an end all be all guide, some of the steps might not be clear. I am not liable if my instructions are wrong. That is the steps I used.

I was curious, I'm on a regular 2.60 psp, and I just want to make sure, but I can't use this to downgrade my psp to 1.50?
I was wondering if you still need to use an old unpatched copy of GTA to downgrade from 2.6 to 1.5.

And this TA-082 downgrader that was posted, can anyone else say that it works 100%?
I already brought my TA-082 from 2.8 to 2.71 and now I'm just even more weary with going from 2.71 to 1.5. Sorry for all the precautions, this is crazy stuff!

if you DONT want a brick
make SURE you have hen d running
before you run the downgrader go to
system settings/system information and next to to system software:versio n 2.71 it must say hen d next to this!

i have a ta-082 motherboard...ㅜㅠ
so i can finally downgrade it??
wut is that number of people who actually get bricked and people who actually make it work??
Reply
Believe it or not - I think Im the only person to have forgotten to copy the TXT files (that are needed the first time only) to the root.
I ran HEN-D - screen went RED, thought all was well, but now when I re-run it, the PSP powers off and will not load HEN-D into the memory hence I cant downgrade.
Ive waited SOOOO long for this and buggered it at the last minute.
I'm right in thinking its written to the firmware but not used / written to the missing TXT files so now there's no way I can downgrade?
Christ I feel so stupid! Ive tried everything - formatting the MS, returning to factory defaults, hard reset etc. etc. but its no good!!
*****E!!!!!

Eventually, the screen came on and stayed on!! I navigated to the System Info, and, low and behold, it's a 1.5 PSP!!! I installed a homebrew game, and it ran!!
Although my heart is still racing, my greatest and humblest thanks to Dark Alex for giving me another 1.5 PSP. You, sir, are the man. :)

I've got a version 2.6 firmware and if I open the UMD i can read in golden letters "IC1003" inside on the corner. Does this mean I have a TA-082 board?
Can i upgrade to 2.71 and then downgrade to 1.5? (i definately do NOT want to brick my psp)
Thanks in advance.
