Latest news about 0okm's TA-082 downgrader |
Ó

I'm sure all of you TA-082ers have been waiting with bated breath for 0okm's downgrader. And I wouldn't blame you - 1.5 land is magical, if you know what I mean. Well, granted that with the few big news lately, 1.5 is slowly starting to lose its shine to firmware 2.71, you still have to realise that the bulk of homebrew is made for 1.5 and thus, will have a few problems in 2.71.
When 0okm's downgrader news spread on the internet, people became restless. A few weeks down the line though, and there's hardly any information from him. Was he successful? Did he run into some problems? Thank 0okm because his latest entry in his blog is a nice update to all his fans:
"encounters some difficulties in the programming :(
diligently to solve :)
Please wait :P
when "TA-082 SoftDown" Release
it can support FW2.71(Original FW2.50)
if your PSP is "Original FW2.50"
feel free update to FW2.71 :)"
So, there you have it. I bet he's probably finished about 70% of the coding. And I'd trust him to get this thing finished before long. The other good news is that his downgrader will be supported on firmware 2.71. So all you TA-082ers, feel free to update to 2.71! It's got loads of goodies lately and it's where the party could be within the next few months!

This is good news even though im on 1.5 . Great job ookm. I was almost in need of this information buying a new psp but luckily i bought an older motherboard(ref urb).
yeah even though im 1.5 this is good for all the TA-082ers out there. nice work
great work 0okm. ill be praying n hoping this downgrader comes soon.
Sony never saw This coming! Good work
does this mean only factory 2.5 ta-082 users can use it?
what about factory 2.6 ta-082 users?
cause it says if you have original 2.5, then update to 2.71 and use the downdater when it comes out.....i have an original 2.6 :(
Well I'm not so confident in 0okm's news anymore.
So far I haven't seen a single finished exploit/hack or app from 0okm. Fanjita, Dark Alex and the like keep dropping finished bombshells. But 0okm just seems to keep on giving false hope to get people to read his blog (google adds). First it was the umd emulator, to this day he has not released it (only some test code which didn't use kernel functions). Then it was softdown a ta-82 to 1.5. To this day he only has released a prog that prints if you have a 2.5 firmware or not. Which is basically a check on which bootloader you have.
Anyway, we'll probably see 2.71 kernel homebrew running on ta-82's before we see a downgrader from 0okm is my thoughts on it... And that's not bad at all, because it will be better than 1.5 even if the majority is written for 1.5 now, the apps can be recompiled for 2.71. It's like 1.5 is windows 95 and 2.71 will be windows xp requiring a recompile or rewrite of certain dos specific apps :)
I have a TA-082 with 2.60 (factory firmware =/)
Is only the origonal 2.50 firmwares downgradable or also the 2.60, as it RUNS on 2.71. Please don't flame me.
i thoght there shud be more comments on a thing like this i thingk it´s gr8 4 all whit ta-082:ers i say when it is finshed ur all welcome to 1.5 and the homebrew world i allready got 1.5 but this is a huge step 4 all of u whit ta-082:ers
I promised I'd downgrade my friend's psp before I found out it was a ta-082 2.5, but now I can actually downgrade it!
at number 6 good point...
dude i dnt beleve anything good is gonna come soon ... its only for ppl with factory 2.5...... not many of them,,
i got a 2.6 .... so no point,.... this doesnt five me a reason to jump...
and i doubt this thing is gonna be ever released...
It's good to know this project isn't dead.
Keep it up 0okm!
unrealistic false hope IMO.
# 6 is correct.
Ookm should stop working on downgraders.
would prolly brick anyway.
but nice try though, but the pattern of unfinished, project jumping hooplas, are upon him.
peace out.
Hi 2.71 TA-82 USERS (who were originally 2.50)
Welcome to 1.5 land, enjoy your stay.
Thanks to all the devs who made it possible
(im thanking even though i was an original 2.01 user)
and i dont think ill upgrade to 2.71 until i know that ALL homebrew and kernel stuff works.
THANKS 0okm, your hard work is being appreciated world wide (your famous!! make me famous 2!!)
agree with # 6
Keep up the good work Ookm, us TA-082 users are counting on you! =)
I was thinking of buying a white psp but i think it might have TA-082 MB. Does every new psp released now have this MB?
post Real news not hype!
Just update to 2.71 and use the devhook, I´m running ISOs on my ta-082 PSP
works fine!
this is cool!! nice work
is there ever going t be a chane of 2.8+ downgrader??
When you actually read it, it does not really amount to anything but hype and false hope. As far as I am concerned, if there is nothing to show for it, nothing should be announced because all you are going to get is restless people unless you just want to increase traffic to your website and get more money from affiliates.........
the project he is currently working on is not farfetched but i highly doubt is going to get anywhere. besides it's not an efficient solution. remember when he said you'd have to send him your dumps and from there he will create a unique "clean 1.50 f/w" for everyone? well, if this does not brick all PSPs, only a handful will get a taste of his "softdown".
i would encourage the development of the following projects by other developers rather than pray for 0okm to come up with anything at all. besides, these will be closer to completion before 0okm bricks a million PSPs.
* overthrowing 1.50 and crowning a 2.x (with TA-082 mobo) as "the new golden firmware" by working on exploiting all possible exploits on current 2.x f/w's to enable porting of 1.50/all homebrews
* a 2.8x to a lower version downgrader to whatever 2.x f/w will be crowned "the new golden firmware"
ookm is a retarded nut! he wantz to be a rekognized koder for the PSP scene, and all he is doin'z makin pplz laugh at him. chk dis owt:
"encounters some difficulties in the programming :(
diligently to solve :)
Please wait
yeahz retard, dis would be solvedi you knewz what you were doing doing doing. I wouldz like to put my dilligent boot up yer a$$. Then you wouldz be faster do solve the ***** youz did.
when "TA-082 SoftDown" Release
it can support FW2.71(Original FW2.50)
if your PSP is "Original FW2.50"
feel free update to FW2.71 :)"
Yeah [f][c][k][e][r] , I iz goin to upgrade because you said so. Kiss my pinky a$$.
That's right... It seems so much easier to do it BACKWARDS!
Meaning, have the DECENT firmware on the chip, and the hackable one on the mem stick. I love the Devhook for 2.71, and i'm now using it all the time, and I'm certain that 2.81 and above can be emulated on 2.71, too! It's all looking good, if only we could get the patch to autoload...
Thinking...
If this is true, Then to all out there asking can it downgrade my psp. Well im sure it will ,As long as you upgrade to 2.71fw,
In the meantime untill [If ever] this is Released then upgrade but until that great day arives for you all stay on the current firmware you are useing now,
As dark alex,Fanjita & Ditlew n Co may come up with an alternative.As things are going at the moment anything is possable with these developers.
"Only time will tell Ookm is True Or False".
What,
25 replies and not one comment about this dud's english? Let me pick up the slack.
Ookm should stop working on downgraders and start working on his english. Oh SNAP!
please make one for orifinal 2.6.
@7 So do i
shouldn't it work if i just updated my 2.6 TA-082 PSP to 2.71 and then used it
Referring to Post #19 by ta-082 user (Unregistered).
He mentioned that he could play ISOs with devhook on PSP with 2.71 firmware.
Is that even possible?
ill be waiting for softdown
thanks alot ookm
i have a 2.70 TA-082 updated from 2.50. am i going to be able to downgrade my psp?
First, yet to see 1 finished app coming from 0okm.
Anyway thanks to dark alex's work. TA-82 users just upgrade to 2.71. Then install his devhook launcher and voila you can run homebrew AND run iso/cso on a ta-82... So no need to downgrade to 1.5 anymore!
When dark alex finishes his kernel mod for 2.71 you can even run the 'current fw 1.5 only kernel apps' as well...
"when "TA-082 SoftDown" Release
it can support FW2.71(Original FW2.50)
if your PSP is "Original FW2.50"
feel free update to FW2.71 :)"
yeah when its released. its not currently possible to downgrade 2.71 TA-082 so for all we know it could be released in 2 years
@ 29
He said he was using devhook (emulating 1.5) and playing ISOs
Бля,пиздец я рад,а то заебался ждать!
ПС:русские форева
Referring to post number 19:
"Just update to 2.71 and use the devhook, I´m running ISOs on my ta-082 PSP
works fine!"
Few questions for you guys:
Does this work as well as 1.5 for homebrew, and the like? Are there any significant advantages / disadvantages? I guess my main question would be: Does this work as well as performing a somewhat risky downgrade? I know TA-082 downgrading is still being worked on.
For example: Do applications made for 1.5 tend to run slower if you're emulating the 1.5 firmware through 2.71 on a TA-082? I'm curious since I may be getting a TA-082 2.71 machine soon.
