Are you ready for homebrew? 3.03 HEN and Downgrader released!

3.03 Downgrader - Image 1Fanjita may have told you guys what to do with a non-homebrew capable PSP, but now it appears that everyone can get in on the homebrew fun! The "goofy exploit" which exists in firmwares 2.00 to 3.03 was found on Friday, January 25, 2007, a date which you'd think might go down in the PSP homebrew history. But it probably won't because despite their seven-day ETA, the Noobz team has once again fortified its position at the top of the homebrew coding ladder with a 3.03 downgrader - just three days after the exploit was found!


Some call it magic, others call it an act of god, but whatever the reason for it, PSP gamers all across the world can now downgrade their consoles to the magic of homebrew-capable 1.5, and then if they wish to do so, upgrading to homebrew-capable custom firmware. All you need is a PSP running firmware 3.03 (if not then update to 3.03 using the update EBOOT found here) the downgrader files and the 1.50 EBOOT as well as an unpatched version of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.

Unpatched versions of Liberty City Stories contain the 2.0 update, whereas patched versions contain higher updates. If your copy of LCS has an update higher than 2.0 on it, then you will have to find an unpatched UMD to proceed. There's no need to worry if you have a TA-082 PSP as the downgrader will check your motherboard and patch it if necessary. Note the downgrader will not let you proceed without patching if your motherboard requires it.

Not only has Noobz released a 3.03 downgrader but they've also managed to release a 3.03 HEN (Homebrew Enabler) for the PSP. This means that those of you who aren't too sure that you want to downgrade can still play homebrew on 3.03. This does not flash your PSP, but by running HEN, it installs a patch in your PSP's memory, that allows you to run homebrew almost as if you had a v1.5 PSP. This patch remains in place until you fully turn off your PSP - it will survive the PSP being placed into sleep mode. You run the HEN application just as you do the downgrader using Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.

To use this simply download the 3.03 HEN files from the download links below and copy them to your PSP. Then run your unpatched version of GTA:LCS and the patch will apply itself. It will be stored in RAM and will stay there until you reset your PSP. Putting the PSP in sleep mode will not remove the patch. This is based on the source for HEN 2.71 provided by Dark_Alex, so the Noobz team would like to thank him for the code and the help. Additional credits go to Booster, Team C + D for the registry kernel exploit and Mathieulh for the help provided to Dark_AleX.

PLEASE READ: This downgrader has been tested by the highly-successful Noobz team and has been proven to work, however there is a small chance that bricking could occur during the process of downgrading. QJ.Net and the Noobz team are not responsible for any damage which may happen to your PSP by this application. Can you also note before use that it is possible to brick using this downgrader if you downgrade and then update to 3.03 and then downgrade again. The advice from Fanjita right now is to only use this once. If you update to 3.03 again after using the downgrader then we suggest you leave it there to prevent your PSP from bricking.

Now we've got the boring bit over with, we can move onto the downgrade process itself. Here's QJ's "how to" for downgrading from 3.03 to 1.50:

1. Update to firmware 3.03. If already have this firmware then proceed to step 2.

2. Open the 3.03 downgrade file and copy the contents of the folder MS_ROOT to the root of your memory stick.

3. Open the 1.5 update and rename the EBOOT.PBP to UPDATE.PBP then copy it to /PSP/GAME/UPDATE/
Make sure not to overwrite PSP/GAME/UPDATE/EBOOT.PBP

4. Load Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (unpatched)

5. It should get to loading save game, clear the screen, the screen should fill with a light blue color and then reset the PSP
(If this does not happen see below)

6. Check that HEN is running by going to system settings then System Information and it should show up as system version 303 HEN

7. If it is showing up as 3.03 HEN then go to the memory stick and run the x.yz update

8. 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).

9. Once you have agreed to start the downgrade do not unplug the PSP

10. Once finished the PSP will ask you to press X, after pressing it will reset it self.

11. If it comes up saying that the settings are corrupt press X to continue.

12. Enjoy your new shiny 1.5 PSP.


What do you do once you have firmware 1.5? Well, you can either start downloading homebrew games from our QuickJump Downloads site and use DevHook to run your current homebrew games or use the more popular which is to upgrade to Dark_Alex's 3.03 OE-C Custom firmware. The friendly people over at our forums have even created an easy-to-follow installation guide for 3.03 OE-C if you've never used custom firmware before. This will give you all the features of 3.03 and the ability to play homebrew and PSX games too! It doesn't get much better than this.

My friend used to have 2.71, but downgraded and now has 3.03 OE-C... but he somehow managed to brick his 1.50 kernal, so no homebrew/recovery, he's basically stuck with 3.03 but with ISOs. He was waiting for a GTA downgrader so he can start up GTA and downgrade using his intact 3.03 kernal, and you guys are saying he can't use this to downgrade since he has downgraded before?!

Thanks you Noobz, first you help me use homebrew on my 2.80, then i downgrade and upgrade to 3.03 OE-C. This is an act of god. Thank you, even thou, i'm a part of the dark_alex firmware.

# This isn't a good thing...Guest 2007-01-28 12:03
Sony's never gonna sell another game again unless they find a way to stop this.



If its not the 3.03 downgrader, its the fact that they havent stopped custom firmwares from being released, updates dont need to be fully cracked to be made into a OE firmware



people like me are going to abuse this, im going to downgrade about 5-6 psps in the next month just because i want everyone to get in on the action, but i also know that now, thats going to be 5-6 more ppl who are going to use isos, trust me, i will inform them about it



this is bad for sony, and possibly the community, i say, Noobz needs to release a umd iso check pronto, to ensure that the iso dump matches the mac address of the psp its on, start taking responsibility

I would think more like 70-75% either have no idea or dont know how (or dont care).



If people like the games enough - especially when you can get them used or for less than 30 bucks (which a lot of psp game are) - then people will always buy games. No worries.



I dont want this to be another dreamcast - but i dont think - at this time - that we have anything to worry about.

I've been downgraded since 2.71 DG came out but i've been wanting to play multiplayer for a long time now with my mate who had updated to 2.81, then the other day he updated to 3.03 believing (on my dumb advice) that he could play ps1 games (we didn't know you had to activate em) so you can imagine my relief when this downgrader came out, you guys really are my heros!

Most ppl cant find the 2.00 unpatched Liberty city stories version of the data or game.. meaning.. that this will be a long wait for me and others out there.. Time to wait even longer Perhaps when march comes around 3.04fw may hit.



And those who cant downgrade because of the lack of 2.00 unpatched Liberty city stories.. They may get the 3.04fw but thatll be kinda not a great idea unless 3.04fw had amazingly good addons etc.. that sony releases.

You have to have the Un-Patched version ofthe game.

Get it used and tell them that you have to check the version that it comes with.

2.00 + unpatched

2.60 + patched

But maybe its only for any psp game that haves the Umd unpatched 2.00fw data or whatever.

After the psp is flashed back to 1.5, it still has remnants of things from 3.03.

This causes problems when trying to downgrade more than once.(not that a need to downgrade multiple times is needed)

Is that files for the downgrader to work or is it samples for us to try out? I tried loading that cube sample thinking maybe it was some sort of homebrew showing off a 3d cube or whatever but it didnt open.

If you did everything right and got it to brick... You probably had bunch of useless files on the MS stick... which conflicted with the HEN/downgrader which caused it to brick...



You can only cry now... or wait for someone to release a unbricker, which will probably never happen ;)

# Probably...Guest 2007-01-28 18:06
Oh, that bites man. You probably didn't know that a lot of people have reported that the backlight just truns off when downgrading. All you would have had to do was turn the light back on. But, unfortunately you turned off your PSP therefore bricking it. You have my sympathies and I'm really sorry that happened to you.

I think they might get quite many units sold now that all of them are homebrewable, but the games as I assume you are refering to probably will go down a bit, but people with brains will buy the game if it's worth it (I admit having downloaded both Medievil and Tony hawks underground 2 myself but they both suck so I deleted them and did not WASTE money and more time on them)

# Awesome downgrade, but now i need helpGuest 2007-01-28 18:23
Everything worked perfect, even the upgrade to 3.03oc! Thank you Only problem is...after everything I took the files from my memory card and cut them out of the /psp/game/ folder and copied them to my computer for later use, then I put the GTA disk back in and now my psp turns on, but its a glowing black screen. Did I brick it? I can hear the umd spinning, but just the glowing black screen and I can't turn it off without taking out the battery. Oh, and I'm' a nOOb, but I did get everything to work for a couple hours. HELP, Please

I can get into my recovery, but when I "Run program at /PSP/GAME/RECOVERY/EBOOT.PBP" it doesn't work. I'm assuming that it's because I took the files off my memory card? Any suggestions? It also states in Recovery mode under "Configuration/Game folder homebrew (currently:3.03 Kernel)". Hope this helps. Will it do me any good to place the files back on the memory card to fix this error?

# general psp hackingGuest 2007-01-28 19:07
hi, i have been a heavy psp user/hacker since about july 06. Until now i havent had to use any of the GTA exploits but have used Boosters' Devhook (credit). I'm one of those ppl who tell my friends with psp's that u can play nintendo games and old sega game on it aswell which gets their attention immediately, anyway, i was wondering if anyone is working on a way to get around the new GTA expoit with a more convention method such as the previous downdgrader releases of Dark_Alex (credit also). I happen to have possension of my friends psp at the moment and 'by magic or an act of god' he had the 2.00 ver of GTA, which he let me swap my 2.6 ver with him. I also want to know if the new GTA related 3.03 expoit is as stable as say the 2.71downgrader? Cheers to every1 at qj.net, your doing a really great job. Keep up the updates.

Once you downgrade to 1.5 you need to upgrade to 3.03 OE. From there, you can run liberty city stories just fine because you're running the 3.03 firmware.

If you're worried about software sales, just make sure you buy your games.



Just because piracy is possible, doesn't make it mandatory. The responsibility lies with the individual to use their homebrew capability wisely. If you steal, you're a thief. No-one else made that decision for you.

And until Sony makes you upgrade to 3.04+ just to play an online match of any Infrastructure psp games - there will be plenty of people happy.



In many ways it is a sad thing for the psp. I'm sure that the illegal playing of ISOs has hurt the psp's sales. Perhaps why the DS sells more games by far (not the only factor, of course).



Well... Here is to the advancement of homebrew, the demise of the PSP, and the aparent never-ending effort of people who think they can get something for free.

See what happened to me above, but after i fixed it I deleted the files out of PSP/SAVEDATA. This is where the exploit would start from when loading the game.

# Flash2Guest 2007-01-29 09:29
Flash2 (there is also flash3) are part of the FW3.x series.



Flash1 isn't formatted because that happens when FW 1.50 boots up and finds all the settings corrupted.

Well, if you do everything right, you should be just fine. Just don't do anything stupid like turning the PSP off when downgrading, taking out the battery, or unplugging the AC adapter. I've done this five or so times already with downgraders and custom firmware installers and I haven't had a problem.

Thats an impossible question to ask... so many out there. Definately get iR Shell though. It adds many features to the psp like a file browser and can launch many file types. It also can be used to act as a universal remote.

Other nice homebrews are NesterJ (NES emulator), PortableVNC(har d to set up without a guide, but you can contol your PC though your PSP), Noiz2sa, Trigonometry Wars, X-Flash(firmware customizer, be careful with this one, could brick), Devhook .51 with CWcheat... I guess thats all I can think of now. I have 95 homebrew games and apps, 1 iso(I own the game), 4 devhook firmwares, a video(Word Dissassociation ), hundreds of ROMs, and 1 ps1 eboot(Crash 2) on my 4gb right now... and still have 1300mb left! :)

First of all, good job on the DG but I will pass.



With everyone downgrading and using isos and not supporting the new content coming out, we are killing the psp and the games that will come. As of now, the Ds is winning and with everyone going back to old firmware, why should developers even try anymore. I know you guys all dont care and wont probably read this, but, take a moment and think about what you are doing.



Class dismissed lol.

# is comming!!!Guest 2007-01-29 13:43
Holding your psp in your right hand, just fart under the sheets of your bed while covering your entire body, and then the downgrader should work.

If not, repeat the procedure.

If it's still not working, you've got the wrong GTA, because it has the upgrade for a firm higher than 2.00.

# downgrade questionbeaker 2007-01-30 13:32
I have 2.71 on ta-082. My questions: If I downgrade to 1.5 can I emulate 3.02? I want to play Metal Gear PO and my son wants to play SNES games. I have been using HEND with Devhook 0.51. I have never been able to emulate fw 1.5 this way. I just shuts down my PSP. However, emulating 3.02 works great. I guess I want the best of both worlds. Will this new downgrader do what I am wanting? How can I know the difference between the pached and unpatched version of GTA LCS for this downgrader when I go to blockbuster to rent or to buy the game?

# Help me..Guest 2007-01-31 17:49
Ok, I have downloaded 3.03 downgrader and 1.50 firmware. I burrowed GTA:LCS (which included ver. 2.00 update) and followed the steps to downgrader my psp(my psp is 3.03 and I bought it 2 months ago)

Here are my questions.



1. Do I need to have save data of GTA:LCS in my memory stick? ( or do I need to delete anything in my "SAVEDATE" folder?)

I haven't completed the game yet.

I just burrowed it from my friend today.

I just completed only one mission and saved it right away.



After that, I followed the step 6 and 7.

2. Do I overwrite PSP folder when I copy the PSP folder in 3.03 downgrader file into my psp?

(I mean, there are folder called "MS-ROOT" and "SRC"

and the following guide didn't mention to copy "SRC" to my PSP. Does that mean I don't have to copy "SRC" to my psp? Do I only copy the "psp" folder in "MS_ROOT" to my psp?)



After that, I renamed "EBOOT.PBP" into "UPDATE.PBP"

and copied this into "UPDATE" folder of my psp.



Then, I played or loaded GTA:LCS as it is written in the guide.



But, it didn't work!!

it loads up a save game.



Therefore, I tried this "If GTA does not load 3.03 HEN and it loads up a save game, try making

a backup copy of all of the directories in :/PSP/SAVEDATA/

before deleting them. Then try copying the contents of the 303 HEN zip

to there."



It still didn't work..

It kept loading a save game..



I am hopeless right now.

I am sure there must be a way but just can't find it.



Would you help me?

Please?

# Phase 1 completedbeaker 2007-02-01 00:23
I have a TA-082 fw 2.71, downgraded to 1.5 via GTA. Everything went great. It seems now that my PSP is running rather slow. My SNES games are really slow. Is there a setting that I need to make to speed things up? If I move on to what I call phase 2 and install the new costom 3.03, will this fix my speed problem?



Great job to all of those who help us out!!

I thought this guide was a little more helpful.



I also read that the folders need be in caps. not llower case. I don't know if this is true. However that is how I did it last night. Also, I started with a freshly formatted MS. I did not have a GTA game save. I just loaded it per the guide.



I hope this helps.

I found this guide a little more detailed. FOLLOW IT EXACTLY!!

Answers:

1. No - Copy your MS to your computer for safe keeping. Format your MS and start over.

2. Yes - Copy the CONTENTS of the MS_ROOT to your MS, overwrite files if asked. Follow the guide exactly!

3. Make sure your file structure is exactly X:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE/UPDATE.PBP - make sure to use caps.



Let me know how this works for you.

# I need to ask you about Dark_Alex oe-c update.Guest 2007-02-01 11:57
I am done with downgrading and almost finished

Dark_Alex's update.



in the guide, it said " When it finishes, you will be prompted to manually restart your PSP. You can now delete the update files off of your memory stick."

What does it mean?

What should I delete off of my memory stick?

Do I delete everything in my UPDATE folder?



I thought it wouldn't matter if I don't delete them off of my disk. I continued to the steps for Recovery Menu.

To use Recovery Menu, it said "Turn your PSP off, and turn it back on, holding the 'R' trigger button"

It didn't work.

Since this step was only for disabling the showing of "Corrup Icon" I just skipped this step.



Now, where am I supposed to put ISO files (game file) to play game?

And where do I load the game from?

Please..

Help me.

I put it in the "GAME320" folder and tried but it shows up as "corrupted file"

Finally, I put it in the ISO folder, and it seemed like it was working. But the notice pops up saying

"the file can not be started"

# downgrade questionGuest 2007-02-11 17:53
Im currently running firmware 2.5 and wondering if I should upgrade to 3.03 to downgrade or if there is a simpler more reliable downgrader for 2.5. I've been looking and noticed the one i saw for 2.5/2.6 needs downdater files obtained from a psp running 1.5 which cant be posted here. Just curiouse if these files are needed for the 3.03 downgrader as well. If you could respond to mrlore420@hotma il.com I would appreciate it.

# Praise be to the Almighty SonyGuest 2007-02-12 03:08
My younglings, be calm with yourselves and your small insignificant PSP's. One day you will all realize that Mr. AleX never was; his fictional existance in short was for Sony's benefit and theirs alone. It was created by Sony to exploit the many dimensions of the PSP. The fictional character Dark_AleX and all its attributes were created for pure advertisment. Sony created firmwares and Dark_AleX for their own ambitious reasons; some being that they wanted little preteen children to mass themselves around the world of PSP, to sell, to obsess, to usurp, and assume they have overwhelming control around the technical language of cryptography. You've all been dooped, Mr. AleX has never been. Even the undiluted platinum mod chip was created by Sony themselves. It is all under thier control. You have all lost my dear mentally defective simpletons. Licensures or not, Sony only cares about one thing... Sales. Which you have all so ingnorantly helped improve.



It has been fun my younglings, do keep in touch. You are all very very very special...

# helpGuest 2007-02-22 12:05
i am at step 7 but there is no xyz update just a corrupted file. i suppose this is because of step 3.



"Open the 1.5 update and rename the EBOOT.PBP to UPDATE.PBP then copy it to /PSP/GAME/UPDATE/

Make sure not to overwrite PSP/GAME/UPDATE/EBOOT.PBP"



during step 3 i renamed and copyed the file to the UPDATE folder but there was no EBOOT.PBP in the folder to even overwrite. is there supposed to be an eboot in there? if so where does it come from? it doesn't say in the instructions. someone please help.
