In your umd game scroll one down and you see psp update ver 2.00 that's the right gta
 
You go to the same place if you want to update your psp to 2.71


i was gonna upgrade it then downgrade it i downloaded the 2.71 version but i didnt know where to copy it to from pc to psp if the gta way is easy im all for that m8 . . . . just show me the light lol :)

Hi Robby... heres the light ;)

You need to create a folder called "UPDATE". This goes in the PSP/GAME/ folder.
Copy the official 2.71 "EBOOT.PBP" to PSP/GAME/UPDATE and then in XMB go to game and click on memory stick. Here you should find the file you just uploaded. (PSP Update ver 2.71) Run it and follow the instructions.

When it is complete you should have a 2.71 firmware PSP.

You can delete that file safely now.

Next run the 2.71 to 1.50 downgrader and you will have a 1.50 PSP.

Then install the custom firmware 3.03 open edition - A (In downloads)

You can run your backups with this so you don't need devhook, but you can still install devhook on the custom firmware if you want.

Any questions?
No?
Good!

Good luck. If in doubt... ASK

if you havent got the right GTA version (i have just read my pm's) then if you have a game that lets you update to f/w 2.71 you might find that easier.
 
right lads me eyes r stingin like fook . . . . ive read and read and read somemore tonight and with the help of u lot i hav gained a wealth of knowledge in my quest lol i say wealth but to what i new 5 hrs ago it is a wealth . . . anyways thanks for your help this evening im gonna retire to bed to ponder my thoughts and plan my next move for tomorow . . . and with the continued help and support from u i know i'll get there in the end . . .

just to reiterate i have the gta game needed to down grade . . . or i could go with the upgrade to 2.71 then downgrade to 1.50 which ever is easyest would some one point me to the way to a tut for these

once again many thanks good night and god bless

when you connect to psp via pc you should get a screen open or asked to open of your psp contents. here youll see the PSP folder. go in there and then go into the GAME folder.

in here right click and make ne folder and call it UPDATE. then drag the 2.71 eboot in there

theres nothing on your ms card. your best to format memory card using psp. go to options then system and format mem card on psp.

This should make the folders for you. Then u just have to make the UPDATE one

(TOUCH WOOD M8 ) ;) did what u said and it worked a treat the psp is now updateing to version 2.71 . . . . . . what next ? ( if u dont mind that is ?)

regards robby
 
get the 2.71 easy downgrader and follow the rest of the tut Doomed posted up and you should have a nice 1.50 psp
 
will do m8 ( thanks for ur help everyone !!!!!!!!! ) will it b ok if after i successfully downgrade it to 1.50 , if i ask a few questions as to what to do next . ie what programme do i use to play the games etc etc ?

regards robby
 
mate thats what the forum is for. if people didnt ask questions it would be very boring in here.

next step id say would be get the 3.03 OE-A this will let you play iso's and ps1 eboots
