Recovery Flasher v1.65 Released
[Image: recovery-flasher-s.jpg]

Hellcat has released Recovery Flasher v1.65… I got to make this one quick: If you know what Recovery Flasher is all about, proceed to the download. If you don’t, download anyway and read the included README.txt. In short Recovery Flasher can do this: recover semi-bricks, easily upgrade / downgrade / flash CFW versions, backup / restore flash and NAND, plus more… Of course some of this (flashing of any kind) is dependent on your PSP model. Again, read the README to set yourself straight.

Quote:v1.65
First off, a small “what’s NOT (yet?) supported”: ANY kind of flashing on “newer 2000s”, PSP 3000 or the PSPgo
If support for those models will ever, in any way be added to Recovery Flasher is doubtful (mostly as there’s no CFWs for those).
MAYBE (and I can’t stress the *MAYBE* enough, it’s more likely a “likely not”) support to flash OFW on (some of) those models might be added one day for the sake of downgrading the OFW.

And with that out of my system, here’s the “what’s new”:

fixed compatibility with 6.20-TN HEN
added check for 6.20-TN and the 6.35 HEN
added check for 6.20-TN HEN’s flash0 protection being enabled
added check for configured game mode plugins when on 6.20-TN and the 6.35 HEN
added detection of the PSP4000 model and the PSPgo
added appropriate handling of all of the above, when detected, to avoid unnecessary tears casted by users
added support to handle 6.00, 6.10 and 6.20 FWs for restore of (filewise) flash backup and clean install from scratch
added decryption of extracted (hidden) updater driver modules – and so enabling downgrade from 6.35+
(only on hackable PSPs though, for now)
added new firmware packs to install clean 6.20 OFW using Recovery Flasher
bundled the existing 5.50-GEN firmware packs with the main release

DOWNLOAD!

Awesome work from Hellcat !

Now my question:  I realize that SONY has added (hidden) updater driver modules to prevent people downgrading using a SONY updater..  But:

What about Pandora ? And what about NAND Manager ?   In theory, shouldn't either of the two be able to downgrade a hackable PSP model on 6.35+ fw  ?

I have downgraded from 6.35 to 5.50 using Pandora.

The BEST thing that I like in Custom Firmware is that it can use custom themes unlike in Official Firmware. If official firmware can use ctf themes I'll switch to Official Firmware. Yay
