PSPsetX for PSP 2.0
greg | December 9, 2005
Placasoft of Team Emergency Exit has released PSPsetX v0.2 for firmware version 2.0 users! This PSP homebrew application allows you to easily customize various PSP settings – gameboot, swap X-O buttons, etc… and best of all – it comes equipped with one of the safest downgraders!
From the readme.txt:
With the safest downgrade function ever!!!
Just select downgrade, go to the PSP menu afterwards and start the 1.5 update!
Other features include:
- Change Gameboot
- – Change Gameboot = copies the Gameboot.pmf from ms0:/Gameboot.pmf into the flash
- – Backup Gameboot = copies the Gameboot.pmf from the flash into ms0:/Gameboot.pmf
- – Restore original Gameboot = Restores the old gameboot.pmf
- Firmware Tweaks
- – Set Version 1.00 – 2.5 = Sets your PSP Version to 2.5. You can now also play games which require 2.5
- Change X-O-Buttons
Before using this please restore factory settings - – Set X as enter (US / EU) = now X = enter at the psp menu
- – Set = as Enter (jp) = now O = enter at the psp menu
- Stuck Pixel Cleaner
- – Start cleaning = takes about 20 minutes
Please remember this ONLY works on firmware version 2.0

Okay, so does this allow you to Fake 1.5 and run homebrew while within 2.0…Or am I just dreaming…
Dreaming Im affraid mate.
hmm might be dreaming…. have to have a go at this *upgrading* give feed bk l8er!
So is it more of a “faster” way to downgrade back to 1.5 while in 2.0…I guess I don’t really get it…As most of these things are not really necessary in 2.0.
does this thing let u play games which require 2.5 update on 1.5 firmware? im confused?
I JUST RAN THIS FILE THROUGH PSP SAFE……IT DETECTS THE DELETION OF THE FLASH….BE WARE…IM NOT SURE IF THIS PROGRAM IS SAFE..
Sasquatch Grundle!
Off course it writes to flash…
Check;
Change Gameboot
- Change Gameboot = copies the Gameboot.pmf from ms0:/Gameboot.pmf into the flash
- Backup Gameboot = copies the Gameboot.pmf from the flash into ms0:/Gameboot.pmf
can any1 tell me how to install this im lost… thanx
But isnt it risky if it access files from the flash….and what if it just crashes, deltes the neccesary files…everyhtig is fucked then
what is gameboot?wat is that also,,,,,,can this thing play 2.5 firmware version gmaes on 1.5
The gameboot is the screen that you get when you load a game, and no you cant play 2.5 games with 1.5
Where do you put the EBOOT? There’s only one EBOOT. I tried putting it in GAME but it didn’t work…
- Set Version 1.00 – 2.5 = Sets your PSP Version to 2.5. You can now also play games which require 2.5
This means we can play games which requrie 2.5 firmware…like gta??/?
GTA doesnt require 2.5! Does it? It requires 2.0.
Ok this is what it does.
You need 2.0 with the Fanjita Loader. You put the eboot in a folder called PSPSETX under PSP/Game. Anyway after you put in the eboot go to fanjitas loader (get it at http://www.fanjita.org) download v8.0 v8.5 doesnt work for me. Then just click on the file and run it. Use the menu to select what to do…
Omg newbs
O ya and its to run 2.5 games on 2.0 NOT 1.5 or 1.0 FUCKING RETARDS
You can put the eboot under PSP->PHOTO if you use fanjita loader v0.85. Thats what I did and it works fine.
nice got this shyt to work good looks
can u boot back up games with this on 2.0? i really dont get it some one explain this in Noob language
this is useless infos fanjita it dont work ,is there an other way of getting it work
but if its not safe then why try, i say buy or download as long as you chill with cookies im out of your way mate…
Hey guys Can I play GTA WITH THAT OR NOT?
Can someone confirm the downgrader works
Off course you can play gta with this, like this programm needs FW 2.0 to run gta also needs it.
So couldnt i upgrade to a 2.0
from a 1.5 to play GTA. then after i am done,and want to play all of my other iso’s and nes games ( I can downgrade back to 1.5 ) am I correct? sounds good if so!
Crap you Guys DONT MESS WITH THE FLASH, I JUST DID, This sux its deleting its information( Witch doesn’t seem even possable)… now like the desktop home thing, the icons like music and Video are gone,WTF this sux, DONT MESS WITH THE FLASH.
I know not to mess with the flash he is to fast for me.
Yea, there has actually been a downgrader for quite a while, but I dont see whats safer about the new downgrader, it still stops at 99%.
Everyone should know better than messing with the flash.
this thing should be safe, otherwise they wouldnt have put it on here…
Nothing is garenteed to be safe. they all say to use at your own RISK.
Does GTA:LCS work by anyone here???
You’re all a bunch of fucking n00bs.
Just a simple question: Can I play GTA firm 2.0, and then after that go back to 1.5 firm to play my ISOS using this homebrew???
Please anyone can tell us?

Yes it can. Upgrade to firm 2.0. play gta using the UMD. After you finished playing, use this tool to go back to firm 1.5 and play your ISO’s
Greetz,
Alt
Hell yes, I hope the anti-dead pixel thing works. Downloading now :)
The pmf for the gameboot video should not be bigger than 1,2MB
What does that means???
another thing.. Let’s suppose I downgrade back to 1.5 firmware…
How can I upgrade to 2.0 again if this Tool only works on 2.0 firmware???????
many thanks
to #39. yes you just need a umd that has the 2.0 upgrade on it and put the 1.5 upgrade on memstick in the /psp/game/update folder.
This only tricks your psp into thinking it is a 1.0 so it can run the 1.5 update.
every program and piece of electronic utensiles that we all use, come with the “Use at Own Risk” thing. I want to see a clear easily visable video.
I’ve changed the FW to 1.0 ,but do I need a 1.5 required game to get the 1.5 update or is there another way?
There is a download on this site to get 1.5 firmware. put it under PSP/GAME/UPDATE folder… jerk
Every one!
the GTA:LCS works
it worked with me
also the homebrews
it is a multi-psp system
it is a genius.
hey guys how to do do it…? I cant install this I have no idea what they are talking about…Please can anyone give me a step by step readme??? Please
man i could upgrade and downgrade before this loaders its the same all u get extra is pixel setting and tweaks firmware which is the same to 2.0 alot why dosnt tell us no one how to install pspsetx then if its working i thing its not at u own risk i thing u are in risk if u do that guys im not stooping just be carefull cause it could be sony behing this dont trust no one why didnt psp hacks give us instruction then nothing against then but why not
I have used the downgrader inc in PSP set on my psp and I can comfirm that it works. Also to all the noobs, u know who u r, this basically acts as a firmware triker for firmware 2.0 so it is NOT a GTA ISO loader.
This is a great program! Great work! It’s better then the origional downgrader plus has all the extra features. And for the noobs worried about it writing to flash it has a option to edit the gameboot video! Even if you delete the gameboot video it dont hurt anything and it lets u restore it
Upgrade from 1.5 to 2.0 to use pspsetx to downgrade to 1.5, back to 2.0 and so on and so forth. How many times will a psp “survive” up and downgrading – forever?
does this mean you can play gta on 1.5!?!?
People, please take five minutes and read the previous posts! You cannot play GTA on a 1.5 with this program.
where to u have to put this program and how and when plaese help
I’ve just tested it, run it from the fanjita lodeaer and I was able to set the firmware easily to 2.0 and back to 1.5, but it DIDN’T run any umd emulation that runs fine on 1.5. So if you think you can play 2.0 games and then switch back easily to 1.5 with it’s set version in order to play your isos’- it wouldn’t work!
Are there currently any programs which allow you to keep 1.5 and trick your store purchased games into thinking you’re running 2.0? I did this a couple months ago with WAB. I’m a little apprehensive to upgrade and possibly mess up the Emulators.
So i create a folder called PSPSETX under PSP/Game and put the EBOOT.PBP file in it.
After that, how do i use the fanjita loader v0.8 to activate the downgrade?
it’s a multishit, I can downgrad but different umd videos I can’t play and I think GTA doesn’t work. My problem is Gameboot.pmf who can I find it and the video are different to With the safest downgrade function ever!!!
Just select downgrade, go to the PSP menu afterwards and start the 1.5 update
Where do i extract the files for fanjita on my PSP. I am using fanjita V0.8. Do i need to extract the files for LUA to get PSPSETX to work?
hpw come when i try to downgrade or do anything else it just says copy file do not turn off your PSP
right, do not turn off your PSP, I go back and push circle I am not sure I have now 1.50. it restarts the psp and you can see the 1.0 version now you update you psp to 1.50,
ups it’s not circle it’s press start to quit
FFS! If you’re all so desperate to play GTA, just buy it.
press start then to exit from the loader and then go under game and press update folder and should downgrade
PLEASE make it clear that you need to have the FIRMWARE VERSION 1.5 ON YOUR MEMORY STICK in order to ACTUALLY DOWNGRADE with this program!
…I think some people dont understand that this is only for PSP’s with Firmware v2.0.
So using this on 1.5 to trick the psp into thinking its 2.0, aint gonna work.
Anyway, ive tested it, it works fine. Got the pixel cleaner running now. Just wondering if anyone knows if it turns off after 20 mins or do i have to do it manualy?
Ok. I have a downgraded 1.5 psp. Tons of iso’s and homebrew
that work fine. If I upgrade to version 2.0 and use this program to boot iso’s and 2.5 iso’s,will going back down to 1.5 be fine? Will it run as it is now? (i don’t really give a toss about gta either b4 u scream at me). Just interested.
#65, That should be ok 1.5er; but as I haven’t tested it I can’t say for sure. Can anyone verify this?
I used the PSPsetX and it downgraded it to 1.00 instead of the 1.5.. How can I fix this. I tried changing and it wont . I used the fanjita Loader v.08
theres a bug
wireless connection doesnt work anymore after trying to switch (o) to (x) give error msg, had to reset
and yes i have white 2.0
fanjita Loader v.08 i think is only for v2.0
Do you have to turn the pixel cleaner off yourself or does it do it automatically
Thnx
Listen here. I hardley poast at all. First off n00bs who dont understand how to work this stuff. Leave theres no point in trying something that is so dangerous that it can brick your psp. If you cant be tought face to face then its better off that you do leave this alone.
Im not trying to flame its just people have been known to brick psps through this and even though this may be safer, it isnt brick proof. So leave it to the professionals or people who are expieranced enough to know what there doing.
People!!!

hi im looking for a downgrader for version 2.50 to dp stuff will anyone help me please …thanks alot…
does this work for 2.0.1?
You can use this through Fanjita’s GTA ELoader. Try the swap X and O keys, you’ll be surprised by the result :)
can U use this on 2.60 eloader ?
Yeah Ive tried doing this for a 2.60 required update of firmware game – Street fighter alpha – using this and the eLoader from Fanjita. I set my firmware for my psp to think it was 2.50, hoping that it would accept this for the game, however it didnt :( and still asked me for the 2.60 update. Does anyone know what to do?
Can someone tell me if i change tweak the version to 1.5, will i be able to play iso files? Can someone also tell me what Flash does?
