OMG Sony are so stupid! (we already knew that, just more proof)
well remember how a while ago i had that thread saying "HELP I THINK I BRICKED!!!", which was about how i bricked my friend's TA-82 psp?
well today after a few weeks and $145, i have got a new one. the thing is, this is where Sony stuffed themselves up. after putting the battery in and setting it up, i checked the Firmware and guess what? it was on 2.71! the same as what it was on when the old one bricked! and also i checked to see if it was a TA-82 or any other "special" motherboard, and there is no writing!
now what i want to do is what i wanted to do before, downgrade to 1.50 and upgrade to 3.52 m33-4. but before i do, i need to confirm that this is all good to be downgraded. there is no text where the normal TA-82 text goes, but I'm going to act really n00bish by showing everyone, pics of nothing. but just for confirmation that its nothing.
Right Side:

Left Side:

just so you know, in the left pic, the just barely viewable text is nothing, i have it on my other NON-TA:82 MotherBoard.
now if that's confirmed, i need to know which downgrader to use. i want a downgrader where i DON'T NEED A UMD OR PANDORA because i have neither, and i cbf finding a spare battery and MS.
I'm guessing i have to use a 2.71 downgrader (what stuffed the TA-82 psp) or i think the 2.81 downgrader?
if i use the 2.80 or 2.81 downgrader, could someone give me link to the downgrader?

thanks everyone :D

your welcome :)

they just released an upgrader downgrader for 3.11 psp's but they have pretty much all downgraders there.
they also have a 2.80 downgrader and a 2.80 homebrew enabler if you prefer that.

Always remember - Google is your friend :)

doesn't really matter though cause of pandora n stuff... and anyone has the right not to update if they are happy with their current version so they won't go ahead and do it for u if u bricked.

use the 2.71 downgrader, and, if you really want to play safe, use the TA-082 one anyway

Only difference is a patcher program, which will just say "not needed" if ran on a 079-81

thanks everyone,
so would you guys recommend this one? just for the "patcher" incase i have a different mobo? (i know you already recommended it roberth and thanks, but i just want to see what everyone has to say aswell) http://www.noobz.eu/joomla/news/improved...dated.html
(sorry for acting really n00bish but really don't want to stuff this up again, and I'm a bit suspicious that Sony sent me a really new PSP yet it has no "special" motherboard)

ok I've decided I'm going to use the 2.80 downgrader, so I'm going to upgrade to 2.80. because it will let me know if i have a special mobo or not

SUCCESS! upgrading to 3.52 m33 now!
*it wasn't a TA-... mobo, and it worked perfectly downgrading to 1.50 via Noobz TA-82 downgrader :D

I'm so happy i didn't stuff it up!
