What do I do if I have v1.52? What do I do if I have 2.1 or 2.5?
Alias420 | October 14, 2005
Ok we have been receiving way too many e-mails asking these questions and my fingers are getting sore from copy and pasting the same replies. So here it is:
If you have a 1.52 then you need to upgrade to 2.0. Once you have upgraded to 2.0 you can use the MPH Downgrader. For more info on downgrading check out this link for a tutorial in our PSP forums.
If you have a 2.1 or 2.5 then you must wait if you wish to run homebrew. The only thing that can help is patience.

ATTENTION RETARDS: JOIN THE FORUMS!
lol ya i was gona put that
basicly if u want tpo know about psp goto the forums n search for stuff
HAHAH at the n00bs who’ve upgraded to 2.01/2.50!
I LOVE 2.01 IT RULEZ!!!
god people are morons. SEARCH the internet before emailing this site. hes prob sick and tired of that crap. should made this article in bright red and bolded.
dumbass. u dont love 2.01, especially cuz 1.5 has soem extra features. ur a dumbass.
join the forums and ask there gte answers adn quitposting noob complaints on here
I love how even the mods here participate in noob-bashing.
#8…learn to type, spell, and speak the english language….YOU SOUND LIKE A RETARDED 4 YEAR OLD..no offense to the mentally handicapped. #8, you make me absolutely sick to my stomach.
yea #8 ya fuckwit
lol, #8 i dont think that we could have a downgrader for 2.5 that fast, they would first have to find a way to run some kind of basic homebrew on it, and if they already had that kind of exploit, it would be all over the web
what happened with the iso loaders? im still waiting for a GOOD one
#7 only when we need to.
It makes me think that you should need a licence to use the internet
-eXira
Um just a comment for # 8, all those links that u put in your post dont work… your retarded.
So is #3, ppl that upgraded are not noobs. First of all not every1 uses homebrew, some ppl would rather have internet orr location free player.
So the followinf l are retarded: #3,#4 and #8.
lol sry I misspeled the last sentence
“the following ppl are retarded:”
some people just post shit in the comments section for fun, theres no point in typing angerly at them
yeah #8 ur site is gay as fuck and it stole this sites logo. die just die. Oh and 2.5 is useless, as locationfree player can be replicated more cheaply with the slingbox or a free media server. #8 ur a faggot go die n00b
ts soooo funny how dumbasses on here can call ME a noob when they know nohting of the PSp and I am the mod in the forums who is an avid user and helps all the members and newbies. dumbasses. this is wghy i stopped posting comments here in the first place. cuz its full of 2 kinds of people. NOOBs who complain about nothing and say they like no-homebrew-firmwares just cuz they upgraded and regret it, and the guys thta yell at them!
Thats why we can edit posts then lock them
-eXira
UPDATE if everybody will hack PSP there willn’t be any cool things only security and PSP’s last UPDATE WILL BE 32MB AND THERE WILL BE NO UPDATE
n00bs fuck up the comment section
LAME update sucks its a disuised security update nothing more
This web-site should be renamed http://www.postyourbanter.com, every post has slag matches at the end, pretty shit really. Sad cunts…
Who moderates the coments here – christ, why do people feel the need to slag noobs – i hoped for some interesting comments relating to the subject `What do I do if I have 1.5x etc.’ Surely the headline posted is good enough to adddress the issue – all you guys who think you know something about the PSP post some help in here!
Oh and if you see a headline that you know inside out – don’t bother to leave a comment unless it fascilitates achieving the answer.
Man I hate cocky PSP wannabe experts!
this site is run and read by newbs
If you have 2.1 or 2.5, the only thing that can help is to kill yourself because you are too retarded.
FUCKIN 13YEAR OLDS RETARDS!! NOOBS!
If you are too retarded the only thing that can kill yourself is to have 2.1 or 2.5.
If you have killed yourself the only 2.1 or 2.5 can help you being retarded.
haaahaha cought cought hahahahahahahahha!!! lol asd sbak!!! NoOoOoOoOoOooOOBS
asd asd asd asd ghg ghg hhhgg
nOOOOBS ok stop..
How to not be a nOOb guide:
1.Read before you ask stupid fucking questions.
2. Think before you do stupid fucking things.
Simple.
your only retarted if you knew about homebrew and what it can do, and you still upgraded to 2.1/2.5. if someone upgraded to 2.1/2.5 not knowing about homebrew and all that other stuff, and then found out about it(like i did with v1.52) then thats just plain bad luck.
(-.-) for alya guys
Its 2.01 not 2.1!
doh i updated cuz i thought it would fix the wpa connection but it didnt and now i cnt play burnout which i downloaded!.. ;(
YOU ARE A MORONE # 32 AND A FUCKING RETARD.STUPID SHIT!
FUCK YOU MUTHA FUCKA….
Can we all get along.this website is forum for help not cuz all you want.Go to a site where both #32 and #33 can do this stuff.
I’m a huge fan of the psp hacking scene, and a regular reader of this site. However, after reading a few of these comments pages I’m having second thoughts-
guys:
just because someone upgraded without realising the consequences does not make them a retard. And insulting them just to make yourself feel superior is a shitty thing to do. I can’t think of any other reason you’d insult them.
and: typing comments in capitals does not make your post any less pointless.
u say u dont wanna keep repostin the same thing so tell us how to up grade to v2.0
who ever get a version higher than 1.5 is gay!!
ok but really just post how 2 upgrade the psp to 2.0 & ull stop gettin so many e-mails
this site sucks, and so do the other wtfever-hacks.com sites…
what a bunch of newbie fat heads
That’s funny ppl email a site to fix all their problems w/o bother reading anything about PSP firmware cause it’s posted everywhere on the internet about the whole homebrew thing and versions already
you should have to be a member to comment
A) If you are gonna cuss at other people just to make yourself sound superior… don’t cause you are just wasting you time and other people’s cause nobody gives a F*** about what you’re saying. If you’re gonna post post productive comments and not just idiotic little cussing battles..
Yes people who upgraded, should slap themselves, hello? Is anyone in there, if you have 1.5 you can play all clasics on emulators, and play UMDS without buying them. Give me a Re give me a Tard
the mph downgrader got the TROJAN.PSPBrick!!!!!
its the data which will be called “overflow.tif”!!!!!!!!!!
Why on earth upgrade to 2.5 if you have 2.0, and also the ability to downgrade? Too bad for those who did! Anywayz, keep up the good work PSP-hacks!
why must people just sit here n slag everyone off whats the point you obviously get bullied at school so you gotta put words up on a website to people you will never see or meet thats pathetic
To whom needs help hacking downgrading their psp’s,
I had a big problem downgrading from 2.0 to 1.50. I would put the overflow.tiff file in the photo dir. and the h.bin and index.dat files in the root dir. But when I clicked on Photo (on psp, not computer)it would crash. I did research on this and other sites and found out that I was wrong! Not only do you need those files but you also need frame_buffer.png in the photo dir. Before you copy overflow.tiff from computer to E:\(my drive letter for psp)PSP\PHOTO, you need to copy frame_buffer.png to that dir., set it to wallpaper, delete it, THEN copy overflow.tiff. Don’t run the overflow.tiff untill you put theh.bin and index.dat files on the memory stick where you see PSP and Mp_root.(you don’t pu them in the root dir. (Mp_root)
Briggs, you are talking BS mate.
It worked on first try without problems just with overflow.tiff
okej
This is the 52nd post so its brobably been said 50 times before, but here goes…
LOL You Retards who havent got a fucking clue what you are doing.
Also, Those Fucktards who upgraded to higher than 1.5 you are fucking stupid!!!!
People will pay lots of money for a v1.5 psp
Screw the upgrades to 2.1 & 2.5
play homebrew:)
Hi i am new, just bought a psp 1.5, Do i upgrade it to 2.5?
@53:
you could upgrade if you want to
everyone who comments here needs to grow up. Stop calling people dumb or n00bs just for upgrading. Some people don’t give a crap about Homebrew, so let them do what they want.
#51, we don’t have the ability to moderate the comments section, we can only moderate in the forums
Please guys, could somebody post how to upgrade from Version 1.52 to 2.00, when I try to upgrade it tries to download 2.5. PLEASE HELP!
TO ALL IN LOVE WITH ANYTHING HOMEBREW HAS TO OFFER CHECK OUT http://www.sonyxteam.com/ AND GET THE NEW VERSION CHANGER TRICKS IT TO 7.50
this is awsome,
90% of comments is about retardation noobs!!
WTF is happining kids.
So, basically, in a nutshell, stay at version 1.5.
Imagine this story repeating itself, when sony releases 2.75, 2.8, 3.0, 3.5, which will probably happen in the next few months. Go sony!
only thing that can make me upgrade is support for flash and mpg files
can you please make a downgrader for the version 2.50 please you going to have to do it anyway. please!
To Anon:
Our psp’s must be different somehow because that’s the way I had to do it.
Oy, one things for sure: At least that PSP 1.511111111111111 guy hasn’t commented on anything but that PS1 emulator early beta back three months ago… That was some IQ lowering crap if I’ve ever seen any.
What I want to know is why people feel the need to talk in dialects and accents and crap. I mean, it’s typing. You can’t hear what’s typed, so why try to spell out how you want it to sound? It tends to show a slight lack of intelligence to have to spell “mother” as “mutha”. Seriously.
Anyways… Anyone who has firmware higher than 1.5: Ok. Depends on what they’re using their PSP for. People that want homebrew, yeah, having higher than 1.5 is just plain silly, but those that don’t care about homebrew could care less about 1.5, and would rather have the higher firmwares. It’s really that simple.
OMG!!! I really hate my PSP now because of the damn 2.5, y did I have to be such a dumbass?! To all the hackers, you need to seriously find a way to downgrade 2.5 or I’ll seriously throw mine away and get a new 1!!!
#65 you are a stupid pussy.
o am I?
How the hell do you get 2.0 on your psp.
mph downgrader is a brick trojan
MPH is not a trojan
i got this crazy idea how to run homebrew on 2.50 but it mite be a stupid idea idk u tell me k here it goes
i dont kno how but i think that the easiest way to run homebrew is to make a portal (like winpsp portal) that can read eboot files i wouldnt kno how to design it but u guyz can tell me if u think it can be done. its just an idea for u guyz that kno how to design and make all the cool shit thats on the site
Well beleive it or not there is a way to downgrade! I found it as a fluke, but its awesome. I just submitted it as a hack to this site, hopefully it will be up soon. You all will have to wait till then to downgrade. Peace Bitches! :P
AWESOME!!! i salute u JAM523!!! (post number 72) lol
Hey man JAM523 E-mail that file please man if u want just say something so i dont have to put my E-mail address on here for no reason PLEASE!!!!
Well they site didn’t post my downgrade (#72) as of yet so I’ll submit it here. Okay this is only for people that are at versions above 2.0, don’t upgrade to try it because you may screw yourself over, and NOTE THIS MAY BE RISKY,IT HAS ONLY BEEN TRYED ON MY OWN PSP!
Okay, heres how:
1)Borrow a copy of the new GTA from a friend, blockbuster, ect. (don’t steal it, thats bad, don’t buy because if the downgrade works, you can play it.)
2)put the UMD in and you will see an upgrade icon come up under the UMD icon. Plug in the AC adaptor and use the upgrade, if it was like mine it will “UPGRADE” from 2.52 to 2.0, Dumb Sony! It may take a few trys but should work (also other UMDs may have a similar UPGRADE option, but i only know of GTA, others may work!)
3)Once in in version 2.0 use the downgader on this site to obtain VERSION 1.5!!!
Sure I found it on a hunch, and it technically took no hacking on my part, it is a very useful glitch
Oh and I have a Ver 1.5, so i don’t come to this forum often, sorry if some of you dot a little jumpy, and also I give this discovery to PSP-hacks alone, so don’t give it to other hack sites, keep it here as long as possible.
Once again good luck with this and peace bitches.:)
it doesnt work for me u had 2.52? or did u have 2.50? u said u had 2.52 and i didnt know that was out yet lol
To upgrade to 2.52 I used the upgrade built into Marvel Nemesis, thats how you get 2.52.
Anyway… you may have to try the upgrade and mess around with the psp, try the upgrade with AC adapter not attached, then put it in when prompted. Try many times over and over again. IT WORKED, THIS IS NOT A HOAX! Try it and mess with the AC pull out times. really this works keep trying. Oh try removing your memory stick when you try, so no data screws up or gets in the way.
I really hope it works for you.
hurry up wid da 2.5 to 2.0 I NEED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!NOW!!!!!!!!
to all people who have 2.50 version,if you all wanna downgrade it is think forget oit,just upgrade to 2.60 instead or buy a new 1.50 psp instead and sell away the 2.50 psp.

Hello,
I have got a sony PSP from US into a region where we have PAL. I want to inquire would it be possible to buy the games locally from Dubai and they will run on the PSP which I have got from US. Thanks to advise me.
