Hey i worked out a way to downgrade from 5.1.0 via a windows 10 pc here is my video on how to do it

Woah! Nice!

Don't think this will work if the new fw burns an efuse. (5.1.0 doesn't). Then you might have a brick!

 

[scionae]

Wow. Great job. Great times ahead!

there was no fuses burn in the new update i don't think i have done this twice as well 1 for a test and 1 for the video each time worked evertime

Proof your system was on 5.1.0 before starting?

 

[dragonuk]

Yeah this fw is fine, other firmwares that do burn efuse's won't work without patching

 

[Kioku]

Would there be any reason to downgrade, though? From what I've seen, there's no discernable difference in terms of modding.. Unless I've missed something.

Cool! I wonder is anyone has a list of other updates that didn’t burn fuses.

Exactly. It's still good to know we can downgrade between efuses.. After they're burnt, that door for those FWs are shut. :o

wow i didint notice homebrew was 5.1.0 to busy working this out today (im annoyed now) but its still there if you can only install full cfw below 5.1

 

[DarkenSX]

5.1.0= magical update... also sounds like a good place to start making a custom firmware cloned from actual new update

fake news. No proof didn't happen. lol is this for real? didn't think about showing it was on a higher fw? That would have been my very first thought. Either way I believe u.

i don't see how they would know you downgraded but i use airplane mode on lower firmwares anyway because of the anyoing update menu
