3.03 Downgrader Released!
greg | January 28, 2007
They said it was coming within the week, and as promised, here it is! The long awaited 3.03 easy-to-use downgrader!
The almighty Noobz have laid out some specific ground-rules:
- This downgrader is for v3.03 firmware only. But if you have v2.81 - v3.02, no problem - you can just upgrade to v3.03 to use the downgrader.
- You need a copy of the unpatched GTA:Liberty City Stories UMD. No ISOs, no patched UMDs, not Vice City Stories. The most reliable way: the unpatched disks have the v2.0 firmware update on them.
- This downgrader is intended to enable homebrew. Homebrew is NOT the same as piracy. Don’t be a thieving loser - buy the games you play.
- The downgrader will work on all current PSP hardware (TA-079 - TA-086). Patching of TA-082+ is automatic in the downgrader.
- You downgrade at your own risk. There is always a chance of bricking, although we have done everything we can think of to make this process safe.
Everything you need to know concerning a successful downgrade can be found in “Downgrader_HOWTO.txt.” Read them carefully!
Also, for those who fear messing with their PSP’s flash, can take advantage of the full homebrew experience with Homebrew Enabler (HEN) for 3.03. “HEN 303 - the Duff release” works in the same manner as Dark_AleX’s HEN. The requirements: a firmware 3.03 PSP and an unpatched version of Grand Theft Auto: Libery City Stories. Details on installation and usage are inside README.txt.
Warning: After downgrading from 3.03 to 1.5, there are some remnants of 3.03 left in flash. If you later try to re-upgrade to 3.03 and repeat the downgrade, things will break. At some later point, we will work on a cleaner that will remove these extra files. Until then, enjoy! (Don’t worry, upgrading to 3.03 OE firmwares still works fine).
Have fun!

SO THIS UNBRICKS YOUR PSP? OMG
don’t smoke crack no i doesn’t unbrick psp’s
Well, if you consider that PSP that’s unable to run firmware = bricked psp, it does unbrick
Your mother f**kin stupid dude. If your psp is bricked and it has no recovery menu. Your f**ked, unless you have a mod chip.
that’s awsome for 3.03 owners
YO IT SAYS RENAME IT TO UPDATE.PBP RITE… and the 1.5 is called EBOOT but theres no .pbp after it.. SO DO I CALL IT UPDATE.. OR UPDATE.PBP
just update
This is freaking great news! All hail noobz!
Enjoy 3.03 owners….but try getting GTA:LCS unpatched…. And sony got owned again….lol
please someone answer my QUESTION =’(
mother of holy mary…now all those who hated homebrew cause their psp was of higher firmware will downgrade now
amen
i think it should be called UPDATE, since it already is a PBP file
THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE YOU.. AND IM NOT GAY
Yes you are, hon.
Any one want to buy unpatched LCS? Email me: bnc321123@yahoo.com
how about you send it to someone who needs it free of charge under the condition that they do the same and so on…i think that would be a lovely gesture, you could re kindle people faith in the decency of mankind.
I hate people like you get the hell out of here with youre little unpatched lcs ure probably selling it for more than the actual game
people if you arent idoits just rent it!
Stupid dumbass tetris999. You can’t fucking rent it because it will be the fucking patched version, stupid!
well mother fucker stupid ass low fuck havent you remembered store owners have no idea about homebrew, and dont you even THINK that they have the game for rent, ON THE FIRST DAY! obviously if you use ure fucked up little fucking head it wouldnt be the patched version
SO shut the fuck up and use some fucking common sense you stupid fuck
and get the hell out of here
I doesn’t make any difference whether or not they know about homebrew. All sony has to do is send them the patched versions and tell them to replace them or face legal actions, FUCKTARD!!!!
Looks like we’re all pirates now…….and on the same boat…!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ight last time asking.. im so stressed cuz i have no clue what to do.. and i have no money to afford a psp LOL, so it says rename eboot to update.pbp rite.. can i jsut rename it to UPDATE cuz it already has the file extention of PBP
yes just update
No! You must name it UPDATE.PBP or it will not know what type of file it is. It will automaticaly change the extention for you if you name it that.
DO NOT NAME IT UPDATE OR IT WILL REGISTER AS CORRUPT DATA!!1!
anyways, maybe your problem is that in your windows explorer u didnt turn on the extension view. I think your problem it has been. Hidden extension. check it out on like: open Windows explorer. Go to Tools, folder options, View (tab). Then look deactivate Hide extension for known file types.
Good luck
Noob!
i got one for sale too. castorluis99@yahoo.com or if you live in los angeles area i could let u borrow it
This is a holy day in the PSP Scene, yet again. Woohoo for the noobz team!
Great a new wave of homebrew noobs….lol

there’s nothing “n00b” about it
and you suck.
n00b
Awwww… then I guess I will have to wait till they issue a downgrader which does not make use of the GTA:LCS Vulnerability…. sigh, coz I ain’t got the UMD!!! hehehehe.. hope it comes soon, or will it not???
Why not just go to your local Rogers Video and rent a copy? I would suppose that they have the older version of GTA and paying $10 is worth getting to run homebrew!
oh snap!
It works guys! I just brought a 3.03 PSP TA082 Mobo down to 1.50 :) Goodluck with your downgrades!
So…now that every moron can downgrade will someone make some homebrew worth getting?
no wonder ur called fuckface wi a cunt of a mouth like that!
wow for the people who need this top job, you guys never stop amazing me good luck to all the noobs with 3.03swell done noobz!!!!!!!another up yours to sony
SO IS THERE NOW WAY TO USE THE GTA LCS ISO? BECAUSE THE ISO HAS THE 2.00 UPDATE.
LOL , I DON’T KNOW
Ur an idiot… How can u run the iso if u dont even have any fucking homebrew… U NEED THE UMD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
to be fair, hen is homebrew & 3.03 runs hen to start…?
u get the point ok.
Kernel Access all i have to say
HEN also requires the unpatched UMD… Read the instructions!
hehe, an how would u play the iso? safely i mean, it runs the game…which loads the eloader thru hacked gta savegame, which starts the downgrader…..hen would run homebrew but i wouldnt trust it as far as managing all that as its writing the flash….
rent gta lcs its cheaper & easer to get hold of than u fear
WORKS PERFECTLY.. SO FUCKIN HAPPY I HAVE A 1.50 PSP FIRMWARE NOW :D.. okie so how do i get to 3.03 OE-C LOL
CAPS LOCK IS COOL
Der God,
You are a fag.
Moron. You can’t run ISOs on 3.03. WAIT! See if the HEN Enabler lets you run DevHook. Then run the ISO. See if THAT works.
You NEED the unpatched GTA:LCS to run the homebrew enabler.
You mean the HEN enabler that needs the unpatched LCS umd to install right? Bit puzzled why if you’re able to use the HEN enabler you’d not just use the UMD to downgrade?
if i was gay.. or a gurl.. i would fuck the noobz team =D…
What if they’re all female?
i’m thinkin “MO” is a male
then, i’d say he’d be more than happy to fuck them :P
if they were gurls.. then they better start running away ;)
Great job Noobz ;)
This is a great day in Homebrew History. At this moment, no matted what firmware you’re on, it is now possible to get down to 1.5.
I fully believe in what the N00bz say in their readme:
———————————
We are releasing this downgrader because we believe that using your PSP to its full potential and being able to customize it and run homebrew code is a fair use right that should be available to everyone.
———————————
That comment is so true. You pay a few hundred dollars for this machine, and you should be able to do with it whatever you want.
Once again, great job N00bz, and you will truly go down in Homebrew History as Gods, right alongside Dark_AleX.
Dilligaf
Dilligaf? You the freak from RTCW???
haha nice i agree with dilligaf(does it look like i give a fuck
Great job n00bs & DAX, I’m personnally allready running on 3.03 OE-B, but this is still great for all the poor gits who were running 2.81+, keep up the good work!
hey man, how do i get to 3.03 OE-B? im really confused at all this HEN stuff. And im a complete noob when it comes to things like this.
Thankyou :-)
Kool! They said this would take a lonnnnnnnng time - well done noobz. I don’t need it, i had custom firmware ages ago, but i think this is great work!!!
LMAO THIS IS FUNNY BUT IM GLAD I AINT STUPID TO KEEP UPDATEING THESE FIRMWARES
interesting, because you are still stupid enough to use the word “ain’t”
AHAHAHA vvlist is my idol (H)
I’m with you Moe!
OMFG GOD YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS 3.03 THANK YOU THANK YOU DOWNGRADER 3.03 OMFG ive been waitin
ok this may make me sound like a noob but as soon as i saw this i downgraded my custom firmware using the recovery folder and i then upgraded the 3.03 and downgraded back to 1.50 to see if this shit works and it did freaking gr8 o/
dude, why would you do something like that?
there is always a chance of bricking, and you just risked a PSP that was homebrew-capable.
Stupidity I say. Pure stupidity.
Although, I am glad your PSP survived. But there is always a chance you could’ve bricked. You were much safer at the custom firmware.
shut up.
hahahaha iono why but i find that so funny
That would be something i would do to just to see if it would work. but I wont risk losing my recovery menu for anything even downgrading to 1.5 :->
I dont this on mine so i know that it would work… so now when i do it on a friends a can be sure. if i done it on a friends first time and bricked it i would feel like a noob for not testing. at least this way i risk my own before i risk anyone els psp.
What The F*@! is that ^ moron TriXsteR saying!?!? That’s not even English! LMAO! COMEDY!
very nice my friends @school will thank me for this :D :D
nice work !!
Lol same here. So how many people has this worked for, and not worked for? Maybe we could get a poll at the forums?
good job noobz…very nice!!…job!!….i also have the 3.03 oe-C… i envy the noobz team for doing an excelllent job!!!….man i wish i was in the noobz team..=)
