Gaming Help downgrading my psp!

[merlin3d]

Well i bought the tool battery.
i have a psp slim that is 3.90 right now and i used psp grader and the totalnewbie installers for my psp

i have the software on my new memory stick that was reformated and everything then i need help from there i try to run the programs in the game section and they dont work then i turn my psp off and with the tool battery it goes to a black screen i held down the left tab and then i hit x to install the 1.50 but it doesnt work what do i do.

No, do not try to install 1.50 onto your slim PSP.

It is too unstable.

Remove the tool battery, and put in the proper battery.

The tool battery is only needed for a few moments, to add the CFW, and after that, you go back to the normal battery.

well i know that but everytime i run a game it says The game could not be started. (8002014C) i tried everything. i just want to play ff7 on my psp

 

[Bob Evil]

all i can help u with is look in here for help link

 

[merlin3d]

3.90 still

 

[Bob Evil]

Then you did not successfully mod your PSP.

Did you create your magic memory stick, using the easy installer, with a Vista machine, by any chance?

 

[merlin3d]

yes its the only pc i got i dont have xp and the installer never came up with any errors

 

[Bob Evil]

It won't show any errors ... but it won't work properly from a Vista machine.

Everything looks fine, while you are doing it, then it simply doesn't work.

You need to find someone with an XP machine who will let you use it for a few minutes.

edit: nvm lol

so when i get the xp machine i use the program to format and install the stuff on my memory stick then i turn off my psp and put the tool bat in it stays on a black screen i hit x and it should restart right? then it should be downgraded

 

[Bob Evil]

Connect the PSP to the XP machine.

Run the program.

Follow the steps.

Do the tool battery thing.

Follow the on-screen prompts.

Swap the tool for the regular.

Away ya go.

i never used the "easy installer" i use Despertar del Cementerio so im not familiar with how "easy installer" works. but did you run the installer on the psp to build the files for it to install? which in turn need to be made on a hacked psp

No, the easy installer he is using is run from a PC that is connected to an un-modded PSP, with a memory stick in it.

When you put the tool battery in, hold the right shoulder button down, as you turn on the PSP

so running the install app on the psp doesnt need to happen to unpack the firmware, build the cfw etc, with easy installer? you learn something new every day lol

 

[Bob Evil]

No, the pc-based installer takes care of everything.

All you end up having to do, PSP-side, is push the x button a couple of times.

well ill check it out when i get to go to lunch thx guys. ill reply back if something doesnt work lol

 

[merlin3d]

[merlin3d]
