Sep 1

As an ongoing project, me and some1 have been enhancing this downgrader from birth on the 6.31/6.35 firmwares. This multi-firmware downgrader allows you to install a lower (or higher) firmware without any fuss. No complex flash0 sharing, just running the firmware update.
However, there comes restriction with PSP models and compatible firmware. For example, a PSPgo cannot run 1.50 as there are no drivers for the system and the IPL format is incompatible. Much like this, the PSP 3000 09g is unable to install firmwares < 6.30 which removes it’s ability to appreciate the flexibility of permanent custom firmware.

This is no longer the case.

It started off with rumours of 09g systems being “converted” to 04g systems with some sort of Sony equipment. I explored the firmware comparing 04g and 09g and there is little difference between the modules, so I looked into what makes a 04g and 09g different. I got various testers (named below) to give me information on their IDStorage and internal system data (baryon/tachyon). From this I can conclude that the only (effective) difference between a 04g and 09g is:

  • Idstorage Certificates
  • Baryon Version

Nothing more.

Now, it was time to see what it did with these values. I looked up the Idstorage certificates, it’s used in Chkreg and used internally to generate a model number. I found out that 6.20 and 6.39 sets the model of 09g to 04g, lovely.

The big game was the value that is returned from sceKernelGetModel(). Where is this taken from? Well, rooting back from the IPL, there is some code used to determine the model. This code used some strange code which turned out to be syscon code to obtain the Baryon version! The model number is determined from the Baryon.

Here is a little explanation of the Baryon version. When shifted 16 bits to the left, the least significant byte is the data used to determine a model number. the most significant nybble contains the SKU (PHAT, SLIM/3000, GO) and the lower specifies the model of that SKU. However, it got me thinking… Sony don’t know how many revision they will produce in the future. Checking 6.39 firmware, Sony does this: [0x2C -> 0x2E] = 04g, [0x2E -> 0x30] = 09g. Rightfully so, the Baryon version from the 04g’s I had was 0x2C and the 09g had 0x2E. Then i though, if they didn’t know the future, then what does 6.20 IPL do? After analysing I found this: [0x2C -> 0x30] = 04g.

So, if for some reason you find your 09g on 6.20, the IPL is gonna think it is a 04g. Ok, we can work with that, Chkreg sets the certificate based model to 04g and the IPL sets Baryon based model to 04g. Now, lets get some 04g firmware in there!

After a bit of thought, I was sitting at the Downgrader source thinking “how can I install 6.20 on a 09g”. Obviously, run the update and spoof the model. However, changing sceKernelGetModel() did nothing. The model must be determined by some other way. So, 123 and I find Baryon code, yay. Once again, the 6.20 updater has the 09g Baryon as a 04g so if it could run on it’s own, it will flash 04g modules. But why did it error?

IDXFFFFFFFF. That’s the error, it’s to do with error opening INDEX.dat. Wait, a second, why is this happening? Oh wait, it thinks it’s a 04g, so it’s looking for index_04g.dat, doh!

Now, we got a new error. This is weird, it originates from a module called “sceChkuppkg”. Heh, cool. After a brief look at the internals a wild idstorage certificate check appeared. It checked a PSAR block against a list of data composing a PSCode. Easy fix, now the 6.20 could run. Once it had run, it rebooted.

Then it bricked.
Yes i fucked up. By only hooking the usermode version of “sceChkuppkg” caused the updater to validate the blocks until it started to do something important… like read the rest of the firmware after wiping flash clean. Everybody, thank “Gamefreeak100″ for the first brave and bold steps into a 09g permanent patch world, he sacrificed his PSP for it.

A lot of reading later, I identified the problem, fixed it and handed it to another brave tester. This time, it worked! 09g was running firmware 6.20 and for the last 12-ish hours it has been running fine. It retains the ability to update to >= 6.30 and seems very stable!

A word of advice though, this is still experimental. The idstorage certificates do NOT belong to a 04g PSP and upgrading and downgrading from

This would not be possible without the combined efforts of:

  • DJMRLONG Said on September 1st, 2011 at 14:56 BST:

    This is amazing work by you and the team.

    If a downgrade is done & permanent hack is also.

    Will it be safe to upgrade/downgrade to original firmware ?

  • Izan Said on September 1st, 2011 at 15:27 BST:

    Hi, i’ve got a 09g with 6.39fw. When I press X to start SCE Updater I have an IDXFFFFFFFF error, Why? Greets from Spain ;-)

  • ParticleMan Said on September 1st, 2011 at 16:04 BST:

    Little thing…it’s “discontent” not “incontent” (in the readme)

    well, when it has to boot the SCE updater it says “Can not start the game.”

  • Pur Said on September 1st, 2011 at 22:14 BST:

    Awesome!! Thank you so much Davee!

  • lorak Said on September 1st, 2011 at 22:55 BST:

    This is the great idea:

    “However, it got me thinking… Sony don’t know how many revision they will produce in the future. Checking 6.39 firmware, Sony does this: [0x2C -> 0x2E] = 04g, [0x2E -> 0x30] = 09g. Rightfully so, the Baryon version from the 04g’s I had was 0x2C and the 09g had 0x2E. Then i though, if they didn’t know the future, then what does 6.20 IPL do? After analysing I found this: [0x2C -> 0x30] = 04g.”

    Sometimes (if not most times) the best solution is a simple and “easy” one.

  • beycom Said on September 2nd, 2011 at 09:02 BST:

    how can I uninstall it??

  • felipe Said on September 2nd, 2011 at 10:53 BST:

    psp 3004 ofw 6.39 09g got an error, and with 6.60 also. My psp cames with ofw 6.37. In the downgrader it says my psp is module 09g end then when i start the downgrader (sony) it says error IDXFFFFFFFF
    SOlution?

  • chillout Said on September 2nd, 2011 at 13:15 BST:

    if you could do it from 09g to 04g, wouldn’t it be possible to change it to 03g. Or 04g and 03g are completely diferent.
    Tks for the great work btw

  • Sksharks Said on September 3rd, 2011 at 03:38 BST:

    Good Work Davee!!! Keep It UP I Have One Question When I Run it It Starts Perfectly And I Lick X The I Do It Again But After When It Is Supposed To Run The Updater It Goes Back To The XMB Please Help Im Realy Frustrated Im Trying To Downgrade From 6.35>6.20 9g PSP Please Help

    Thanks

  • Matt Said on September 3rd, 2011 at 04:07 BST:

    PSP-3001 09g, but getting IDXFFFFFFFF. Thanks.

  • DR@G()N Said on September 3rd, 2011 at 09:57 BST:

    Works like a charm in my PSP. Its a 09g model and I had 6.35 bundled with it. I downgraded it and now its perma patched!!

  • OverLimit Said on September 3rd, 2011 at 22:16 BST:

    @DR@G()N:

    Can you describe what you did to get it working. I keep getting the IDXFFFFFFFF error. Thanks

  • Davee Said on September 3rd, 2011 at 23:22 BST:

    I’ll release version 5.1 soon. It will allow 6.20 to use updater without IDXFFFFFFFF error.

  • DJMRLONG Said on September 3rd, 2011 at 23:45 BST:

    @Davee

    After thinking about it, is it possible to leave the update IDXFFFFFFFF error, which will prevent people from updating the psp, just like 5.50 Promethius did……..

    If an un-installer be created to first run to uninstall hack then an update can be done.

  • SwoRNLeaDejZ Said on September 3rd, 2011 at 23:58 BST:

    Any idea on a release for 5.1? I am getting the IDXFFFFFFFF and would love to test out the 5.1 fix. Feel free to send it to tradekillas@aol.com for testing :)

  • Manaboy Said on September 4th, 2011 at 02:06 BST:

    I have tried downgrading the following PSP 3003
    Motherboard model: TA-095v2
    Motherboard type: Bright 3003 (09g)
    PSP version: Brite v4.1
    OFW: 6.35
    UMD FW: 1.300
    The only thing that happened is try to load Downgrader v5 after the psp logo the screen goes blank and crash.
    I have also tried to use “6.XX Downgrader V4 Released (UPDATE)” and that boots fine to the warning screen (X plus X screen) then so to the update 6.20 install screen the only thing that stopped me from installing this update was that the battery was less then 40%
    Any idea to whets wrong?

    I am going to try the following

    1.Use “6.XX Downgrader V4 Released (UPDATE)” to Downgrade from OFW 6.35 to OFW 6.31.

    2.Then use your Downgrader v5 to Downgrade from OFW 6.31 to OFW 6.20

    Do you think this would work?

    Thanks

    Thanks

  • Manaboy Said on September 4th, 2011 at 03:46 BST:

    Ok I have figured exactly what I did to get this downgrader working.

    Follow these steps and it should work for you with no problem on a PSP 3000.

    Motherboard model: TA-095v2
    Motherboard type: Bright 3003 (09g)
    PSP version: Brite v4.1
    OFW: 6.35
    UMD FW: 1.300

    First and most importantly, connect the charger to your PSP and let it charge.

    Download the following

    1. OFW Update 6.20 http://www.mediafire.com/?1avmq44p76dkc3y

    2. Module checker http://www.mediafire.com/?9wa4glvetm8ij00

    3. Download Downgrader v5 from link on this page, http://www.multiupload.com/8I56MHRJ4R

    Or davees pages, http://lolhax.org/davee/psp/chronoswitch/version_5.rar

    Extract all and copy the following to PSP/GAME

    Chronoswitch Downgrader or Downgrader v5

    PSP Firmware 6.20 Update (PSPSlimHacks.com) (renamed to UPDATE)

    ModuleChecker.

    Run ModuleChecker and see if your PSP is (09g)

    If it is (09g) then continue

    Make sure that your PSP is Fully charged to 100% and that the charger is still connected, I have found that if your PSP is not charged to 100% Chronoswitch Downgrader or Downgrader v5 does not boot and crushes to a blank screen.

    Run Chronoswitch Downgrader or Downgrader v5 Follow the instructions on the screen after it says (PSP is 09g) press X then X again,

    Follow the instructions on the screen and install the PSP official update like normal after the PSP reboots to a blue screen then Press O to restore your settings, Wait to be returned to XMB

    You should be on OFW 6.20

    hope this helped

  • manaboy Said on September 4th, 2011 at 04:59 BST:

    Another update.

    After successfully downgrading from OFW 6.35 to 6.20 on my (09g) my PSP no longer can go to suspend/standby mode this is not a fault with 620PRO-B9 as this is not installed yet, this is because of the downgrading from OFW 6.35 to 6.20

    I have installed the 620PRO-B9 CFW, there is a difference between my PSP 3003 (03g) (updated normally from OFW 5.03 to OFW 6.20) and this PSP 3003 (09g) (downgrading from OFW 6.35 to 6.20)

    The downgraded PSP works with 620PRO-B9 no problem but when you open the “PRO VSH MENU” and select “Shutdown device” or even slide the power to suspend/standby the Green light on the PSP flashes once then the PSP crushes on a blank screen until the PSP automatically goes off fully (does not suspend/standby) on my PSP 3003 (03g) the Green light on the PSP goes of normally and system is in suspend/standby and not crush/freeze off like the downgrading PSP 3003 (09g).

    I can confirm that apart from the above error the 620PRO-B9 and permanent patch works 100% however it would mean that at its current mode you can NOT put your PSP to suspend/standby and resume your game later, it would fully go off, not a problem if you save your progress, sadly for me I can’t always find a save point on my games.

    I hope my experience has help you indecisive people decide to downgrade or not.

    I may try to upgrade back to OFW 6.31/35 and see if this suspend/standby problem gets fixed, if I get a brick, its still in warranty so hopefully $ony would fix it

    My previous post was deleted, perhaps because of the links however you can see my full post on PSP slimhacks

  • manaboy Said on September 4th, 2011 at 05:11 BST:

    Update

    I have tried to upgrade to OFW 6.31 as this downgrade has a bug that does not let the system go to suspend/standby as I have posted on my last post above, you can
    NOT upgrade to OFW 6.3X (OFE 6.31) (I wonted to revert to fix the suspend problem) but get the following error at the OFW update screen (IDXFFFFFFFF)

    Hope you can fix this bug

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 4th, 2011 at 08:09 BST:

    @manaboy i have the same problem with standby mode, davee just knows of the update bug and he is going to fix it in the next version

  • manaboy Said on September 4th, 2011 at 14:36 BST:

    Any one else got the suspend/standby bug?

    Or is it just me and GiuseppeGo!PSP

    After you have downgraded and you are at the dashboard (XMB), try to slide the power switch once, the system should normally go to standby, (when you turn it on again you should be at the dashboard XMB) not see the SCE start up of you see the SCE start up you got the same problem as us, your system can not go to suspend/standby.

    @ davee, please try the above,

    Hope you can fix it

  • manaboy Said on September 4th, 2011 at 14:43 BST:

    @ Sebodoamat, try to re-download the OFW 6.20 from PSP slim hacks if it does not work then your system has the same problem that davee knows about, “the update bug” he is going to fix it in the next version.

    You can also try restoring all system setting to defaults, I’ve heard that sometime helps

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 4th, 2011 at 14:46 BST:

    @manaboy thanks for your help in our “cause” xD

    No, i’m serious, i hope you can fix this bug Davee ;)

    PSP 3006 09g with OFW 6.39

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 4th, 2011 at 15:33 BST:

    Hello friends, I did the firmware downgrade OFW 6.60 to 6.0 on my psp slim 09G, and when I go update to 6.10,6.20 or 6.35, gives the error CTA80000025, and I can not run keycleanner 1.4 or DC 8 . Can anyone help me?

  • Davee Said on September 4th, 2011 at 15:46 BST:

    @manaboy, you’re message needed approval due to the number of links ;)

    This suspend bug is odd, but not surprising this is experimental after all.

    The update problem, IDX and CTA error are path and region/model codes respectfully. Version 5.1 will issue both of these problems.

    As for those who obtain IDX error on 6.30+ with 09g, tweet me: @DaveeFTW

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 4th, 2011 at 16:04 BST:

    @Davee the strange thing is that, another user isn’t having this problem, if we update back to 6.39 with the next chronoswitch downgrader version, this problem will be solved?
    ps: thanks for your hard work :)

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 4th, 2011 at 16:09 BST:

    Davee, i tweet to you about my problem, the error cta80000025 and IDXFFFFFFFF, please help me, i’m stuck on firmware 6.0 and i cant run any homebrew. Thankks

  • Davee Said on September 4th, 2011 at 16:11 BST:

    vdsm2001, that problem will be fixed in 5.1. It happens because you don’t have a true 04g, so 6.10, 6.20 update rejects your PSP. As for 6.30+ it knows you’re really a 09g, but you have 04g module installed so it cannot find the correct 09g modules and gives an error. :)

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 4th, 2011 at 16:17 BST:

    Davee, one last question, no hurry, when you will release the 5.1 version? Because i will selling my psp. Thannkkss guy, you deserve a donation

  • Davee Said on September 4th, 2011 at 16:17 BST:

    Should be today.

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 4th, 2011 at 16:22 BST:

    Thanks by all, friend

  • Davee Said on September 4th, 2011 at 16:23 BST:

    you’ll be able to go to 6.10+

  • felystar Said on September 4th, 2011 at 21:19 BST:

    @GuiseppeGo!PSP I think Davee wanted to say that the 5.1 version of the downgrader isn’t released yet and that in the 5.0 version of the downgrader, if you install it, you can’t update to another firmware, I think when de 5.1 version is released you can do a downgrader to a lower version whit it and then update to another version like 6.39. I think.

  • SwoRNLeaDejZ Said on September 4th, 2011 at 21:49 BST:

    I am sweating in anticipation for version 5.1 :)

    Hi Davee, for firmware 6.20 and below, a program can be “signed” with updater/action-replay header and run under updater mode and does not need any exploit to get kernel access.

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 5th, 2011 at 07:55 BST:

    i’m stuck to 6.20 and i wanna test it :P send it to peppelamalfa@gmail.com

  • felystar Said on September 5th, 2011 at 21:16 BST:

    when will 5.1 version be published?
    I read in Davee’s Twitter that this afternoon it will be done but it’s 21:14 and it isn’t published

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 5th, 2011 at 22:06 BST:

    Davee has got a real life, just give him the time needs ;)

  • felystar Said on September 5th, 2011 at 22:18 BST:

    yes,yes, haha
    i was only saying

  • Davee Said on September 5th, 2011 at 22:23 BST:

    Haha, yeah, I’m good at release dates xD
    Been mobbed down in pre-uni paperwork :(

  • felystar Said on September 5th, 2011 at 22:50 BST:

    ok, xD
    so… when could it be released?
    forgive me if I am a bit unpleasant,
    but I am going crazy with the release of chronoswitch downloader 5.1, because I wanna downgrade my PSP 3000 to 6.20, because with 5.0 version I got IDXFFFFFFF error! :(
    And that’s the only one reason.
    forgive me

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 6th, 2011 at 01:54 BST:

    Davees Hello, you managed to make the downgrader work on firmware 6.0? And what is your expectation regarding the release date? Thank you for your time, friend

  • Arnie Said on September 6th, 2011 at 07:44 BST:

    Davee, I see some time travel gone wrong! :D Just remember, don’t mess up the timeline and everyone will be fine. ;)

  • AceXyHaseo Said on September 6th, 2011 at 14:12 BST:

    holy shit .. Davee and all the others who put their effort onto this chronoswitch thingy .. may god bless your godly souls ! finally my 3004 09g can experience perma 6.20 ..
    oh i can’t wait for 5.1 .. epic shit indeed .. i had some shit experience irl but this news made me forget about all the crap stuff i’ve been experiencing ! :D

  • felystar Said on September 6th, 2011 at 14:23 BST:

    I couldn’t downgrade my psp (Error IDXFFFFFFF) so i am waiting for 5.1 version to downgrade it. I have my PSP ready to go, I just have to copy the downgrader to my MS and downgrade it!!

  • felystar Said on September 6th, 2011 at 20:13 BST:

    every 5 minutes I reload davee’s blog and twitter and there isn’t anything about 5.1 version, does testers know something(or anybody else)?

  • DJMRLONG Said on September 6th, 2011 at 20:49 BST:

    TO everyone who can’t wait, how about reading a few replies up where he said he is busy at the moment!!!

    I would advice everyone to give him time cause I am pretty sure no one want an expensive paper weight on their hands.

  • felystar Said on September 6th, 2011 at 23:19 BST:

    sorry…
    but he doesn’t answer or say something about the release date!!
    and well I have a problem with wait xD
    I don’t like waiting for anything…
    and more this that is so important for me

  • Matt the Rat Said on September 7th, 2011 at 05:29 BST:

    How about the 07g user davee? Don’t leave us alone

  • Arnie Said on September 7th, 2011 at 13:15 BST:

    To people who cannot wait, v5.1 will never be released.
    To people who can wait, v5.1 will be released when Davee is ready.

    Personality filters. Wonderful.

  • Davee Said on September 7th, 2011 at 13:17 BST:

    Matt the Rat, you have a 07g? contact me on twitter! @DaveeFTW

  • felystar Said on September 7th, 2011 at 13:24 BST:

    I dont wanna be unpleasure, but Davee do you have some neews?
    because i contacted you on twitter and you didn’t answer me

  • Davee Said on September 7th, 2011 at 13:26 BST:

    Yes, 6.20 support added. Still need 6.10 and 6.00.

  • felystar Said on September 7th, 2011 at 13:29 BST:

    ok thanks
    and you think it will take you so much ’till 5.1 version be ready?
    Your the best and I think this is your biggest work ever!!
    I’m just waiting till you release version or reply something xD

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 7th, 2011 at 13:36 BST:

    Davee, please, do not forget to add support for firmware 6.00, because my PSP is dead, and I need it very much friend. Thanks

  • ramin Said on September 7th, 2011 at 14:11 BST:

    @vdsm2011 : i think u can to upgrade to 6.60 … then when ist ready u can downgrade to 6.20 ;)

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 7th, 2011 at 14:23 BST:

    @ramin thanks by reply, but i can’t, i got the error CTA80000025 trying to update for 6.60 firmware, and the error IDXFFFFFFFF trying update for 6.35 firmware. I’m cursed

  • ramin Said on September 7th, 2011 at 16:02 BST:

    @vdsm2011: so … i think u can try the downgrader v4.1 … but use the 6.35 update file for downgrade (to upgrade the devise)! mybe it works … but i am not shure of it… (mybe brike your devise :D ) ! but at all i think the wait for 5.1 is going to finish soon :)

  • felystar Said on September 7th, 2011 at 16:02 BST:

    he only can wait, because Davee said that in v5.1 that error will be solved.
    And @vdsm2011 you aren’t cursed, because a lot of people got the same error CTA800000025 and also a lot of people like me couldn’t downgrade, we got IDXFFFFFFFF error

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 7th, 2011 at 16:58 BST:

    This error is caused because my psp is 09g, and the downgrader changed it to 04g, then the Sony Updater is searching the file index.dat for the psp 09g, mine psp was changed for 04g by the downgrader. I tried run the “Key Cleanner 1.4″ and i got the error: cant load the idstorage.prx. Does anyone have any idea? Other homebrew that can do this? Sorry by my bad english :P

  • Pain1Akatsuki Said on September 7th, 2011 at 17:07 BST:

    09g, 6.20

    Update:
    IDXFFFFFFFF Error

  • felystar Said on September 7th, 2011 at 17:23 BST:

    @Pain1Akatsuki A lot of people got the same error, like me. You gotta wait untill Davee(creator of the downgrader) release v5.1 of chronoswitch downgrader, we think it would be this week

  • felystar Said on September 7th, 2011 at 17:24 BST:

    sorry , it was we think it *cuold* be this week

  • Pain1Akatsuki Said on September 7th, 2011 at 18:37 BST:

    @felystar

    So Davee ‘patch’ the Downgrader and those who downgrade on 6.20 can upgrade?

    Sorry for my english, I am german.

  • felystar Said on September 7th, 2011 at 18:41 BST:

    @Pain1Akatsuki Really I don’t know what he’s gonna do.
    And don’t worry about your enlish because I am not english, I’m spanish, so…

  • ramin Said on September 7th, 2011 at 18:58 BST:

    both problem will be solve when 5.1 comes out… sry for my terrible En, i am iranian :D

    fuck dave! everyone is waiting for you!

  • Davee Said on September 7th, 2011 at 23:06 BST:

    lol. I hold no obligation to anyone for anything. Read the agreement when you run, you accept all the responsibility, therefore it’s your fault if you’re trapped on 6.00/6.10/6.20 or have a brick.

    I’ll release when I feel it is ready.

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 7th, 2011 at 23:23 BST:

    Davee, do not listen to this worm, me and some others know wich you have a social life, and you never are obligated to release, we know that you do not gain anything by it, and is helping many others through charity. So I apologize because of these people who do not understand your effort. Thank you very much friend, I believe and trust you! Even more

  • felystar Said on September 8th, 2011 at 00:04 BST:

    @josegn I also want him to release, and I don’t insult anyone. And @vdsm2011 you are right! He has a social life and he can release when he wants, and in my replies up I just said that I want him to release as soon as possible, but I’ve never insult anyone.
    And for you @Davee, just tell you that like @vdsm2011 says, you don’t gain anything with making things like this, and you can release when you want.. but I want to tell you that for people who trust you, who appreciate you, please(only if you want) release as soon as possible, please. I am not forcing you to release v5.1, I just say that please, release it as soon as possible to you.
    Please…
    (Remember, I tell you this because I’m going crazy waiting for the release!! xD. Noooo, it was a joke, I tell you this because a lot of people trust in you and believe that you’ll be able to take out all errors in v5.0 and compilate a powerful v5.1!!! ;) I apologize because of my bad english in some sentences)

  • josegn Said on September 8th, 2011 at 00:23 BST:

    sorry dave that was not my intention that I’m desperate and my psp came with OFW 6.30 and the truth is my only hope you take your time I’ll wait. : D

  • josegn Said on September 8th, 2011 at 00:24 BST:

    sorry my english, i am spanish xD

  • Pain1Akatsuki Said on September 8th, 2011 at 12:54 BST:

    Patience is a virtue.

  • felystar Said on September 8th, 2011 at 13:01 BST:

    @Pain1Akatsuki Yes, it is… for a lot of people but not for me xD.
    Well I don’t like wait but if I gotta do it, well i do it and if it is for a very important thing like this I wait, wait and wait. And right now I am waiting

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 8th, 2011 at 16:15 BST:

    hey wait everyone! he’s got a social life, he will release the downgrander when he wants to release it, remember that he is going to create 9g permanent patch world ;)
    @Davee i think the suspend bug happens randomly, because a lot of users aren’t having any problem with 6.20 permanent patch…

  • boedy Said on September 9th, 2011 at 08:03 BST:

    i have psp 3000 07g how to donwgrade????
    please help me..
    thanks

  • Jason Said on September 9th, 2011 at 13:51 BST:

    I bought a PSP 3000 for $50 just a few days ago. It was on OFW 6.60, and I was running PRO LCFW. Anyway, had the courage to try this today…. And it works! I am having no problems with this at all! Running 6.20. Now I’ll try perma patch and see what happens. Thanks a lot for all your hard work!

    PSP Info:
    PSP 3000
    Was on OFW 6.60, now running 6.20
    09g (Obviously)
    I uninstalled PRO, and then Restored Default Settings TWICE (Dunno why, but just had a gut feeling it would work out well.) And then ran the downgrader.

  • felystar Said on September 9th, 2011 at 15:37 BST:

    congratulations!
    it didn’t work for me so i gotta wait ’till v5.1 it’s ready… just waiting for Davee, watiitng for the release day

  • David Nicolas Said on September 9th, 2011 at 18:11 BST:

    More or less when the downgrade is going to be correcting the error 5.01v IDXFFFFFFFF?? More or less a month, two months, three months ……Sorry but my English is very poor,i’m live in ESPAÑA!!! Bye

  • felystar Said on September 9th, 2011 at 18:21 BST:

    @DavidNicolas
    First, version is gonna be v5.1 not v5.01.
    Second, Davee didn’t say when it’s gonna be ready.
    Third, I am waiting like you to v5.1 to be able to downgrade without get IDXFFFFFFF error.
    Fourth, I’m also from Spain.

  • alanwake9 Said on September 10th, 2011 at 01:58 BST:

    I am sure Davee is doing his best to improve his chronswitch-downgrader & to solve those errors, Just give him time. Me too I am waiting to this 6.20 downgrade solution, thanks for the hard work Davee, good luck in your actual et futur PS3 projects,
    greetings from Algeria

  • Jason Said on September 10th, 2011 at 06:52 BST:

    Figured I should post an update. I installed 6.20 PRO B9, and then (once again) Reset Default Settings and then installed the Perma Patch, and again, works perfectly fine. I also tried running the 6.60 update program, and it runs (I didn’t install, of course.)

    The two things I did differently was resetting the settings several times, and running the downgrader on OFW 6.60. I think resetting a few times helped out, but I can’t guarantee anything.

  • felystar Said on September 10th, 2011 at 11:27 BST:

    I tried the downgrader again doing what @Jason said, I unistalled LCFW PRO and Reset Default Settings twice and got the same error.
    I trust in you Davee, get a solution just like you know ;)

  • MrDroid Said on September 10th, 2011 at 14:28 BST:

    Hi everyone, i tried the downgrade in two PSPs 3001 (9g),
    it was successful in one (it worked at the first try from 6.39 to 6.20 and then i installed the CF 6.20 PROB9 with the permanent patch, and standby function works perfectly).
    But in the other PSP, i tried downgrading from 6.35 to 6.20, later tried from 6.39 to 6.20, it didn’t work, i got the error IDXFFFFFFFF in both cases.

  • XxAc352xX Said on September 10th, 2011 at 18:01 BST:

    I have the same problem as Mr. Droid …
    to fix that upgrade your psp to 6.60 then run and it will run the update successfully. :)

  • felystar Said on September 10th, 2011 at 18:06 BST:

    did it work to you?
    because the first time I run de downgrader on my 3000 I was on 6.39 and i didn’t work then i updated to 6.60 and got the same error then I downgrade to 6.37(wich what my psp cames with) but that firmware isn’t suported and like I couldn’t downgrade then i updated to 6.60 again and installed LCFW PRO. So tell us if it worked for you because it didn’t to me.

  • DiegoMV Said on September 10th, 2011 at 18:20 BST:

    Hi, I have a problem, I’m running 6.60 on my PSP 3001, when I try to downgrade to any firmware 6.20, 6.35, 6.39 it just returns to the XMB and nothing happens :( I followed the instructions carefully but i just cant downgrade and I really want to downgrade since many games dont work anymore on PRO-B9 or ME, I dont know why this is happening. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

  • felystar Said on September 10th, 2011 at 19:13 BST:

    Maybe you gotta read some replies up when everybody says thar had a problem and some people answer them. You like a thousand(maybe less) of persons have a probel when you try to downgrade to any firmware using chronoswitch downgrader v5.0 and what you only can do is wait till Davee release v5.1 of the downgrader where all that problems are corrected

  • Jason Said on September 11th, 2011 at 00:59 BST:

    @felystar It was worth a try at least, I just figured I’d post what worked for me. I’m not a dev by any means, but I do work with computers and other equipment, and I always go one step further. But anyway, good luck when 5.1 comes out, I hope it works for everyone that hasn’t gotten it working yet!

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 11th, 2011 at 16:35 BST:

    if i downgrade to 6.00 i will be able to update to 6.20, if yes i’m going to try this in hope that with the clean flash0 i will resolve the suspend bug

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 11th, 2011 at 16:56 BST:

    NO NO DO IT GiuseppeGo!PSP, YOU WILL STUCK ON OFW 6.0, LIKE ME
    JUST WAIT THE RELEASE, DON’T DOWNGRADE TO 6.0

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 11th, 2011 at 17:00 BST:

    ok, but this suspend bug pisses me a lot, please Davee, release 5.1 soon D=

  • Davee Said on September 11th, 2011 at 17:02 BST:

    I doubt I can provide a suspend bug fix without compromising some additional service. However, I can issue a patch to PRO CFW to address the issue.

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 11th, 2011 at 17:21 BST:

    Davee, I’m sorry for asking too, but you could at least give me the beta downgrader that is compatible with firmware 6.0, for me to test? I just want to be able to run isos do not need the umd reader or wireless. Thank you friend and good luck!

    vdsm2011@bol.com.br

  • Davee Said on September 11th, 2011 at 17:23 BST:

    Nothing compatible with 6.00 yet, sorry. It’s not a priority atm.

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 11th, 2011 at 17:28 BST:

    But is there any way to change the file index_04g.dat in my psp to index_09g.dat, so that the SCE Updater find it in the firmware update to 6.35?

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 11th, 2011 at 17:31 BST:

    wait davee, is it compatible with 6.20 and it resolves the update bug? if yes, send it to peppelamalfa@gmail.com, okay? :D

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 11th, 2011 at 17:33 BST:

    a little update, when i try to suspend my psp the umd reader emits some strange sounds o.o

  • felystar Said on September 11th, 2011 at 19:21 BST:

    and davee did you add 6.60 to 6.20(downgrade) support?
    Because I am on 6.60 right now and I wanna downgrade to 6.20, so if you added support for that firmwares you can release that like v5.1 and then if you didn’t add support to firmwware 6.10(for example) you can release another version like v5.1v2. I think…
    If not… when you think you’ll be able to release??
    How much stuff do you still gotta add?

  • vdsm2011 Said on September 11th, 2011 at 19:32 BST:

    Davee, on more question, and the last, please davee, for the love you have in emma’s, release the 5.1 with support for firmware 6.0, for me unbrick my psp for ISO only, because at Brazil, one psp coasts U$400,00, and i’m not able to pay for it.

  • kelvin Said on September 15th, 2011 at 20:44 BST:

    My problem is that when I did the downgrader then ran the perma patch it was good. But when i connect a usb cable it freezes. I have a 09g psp 3000. Now the patch cant be permanent anymore and if my psp is on pro 9 with a usb cable plugged in it freezes. Is there like a recovery for 6.20?

  • panget ako Said on September 17th, 2011 at 02:25 BST:

    First of all gotta express my gratitude to Davee for creating this but i have a problem. I have a psp 3000 with 9g and version 6.35 ofw and every time i load the downgrader on my psp it checks the firmware n then goes straight back to the home page with no change. I already have the 6.20 update an the memory stick but it just wont start it, plz help!!!

  • felystar Said on September 17th, 2011 at 21:04 BST:

    @Cratic16 Make sure you have the 6.20 eboot on your MEMORY STICK/PSP/GAME/UPDATE/ If you have it there, try to chance the eboot of 6.20 to 6.39 and update the PSP (in Settings, System Update(first delete all your plugins and unistall LCFW PRO)). When you’re done, try to downgrade again to 6.20 by changing 6.39 eboot to 6.20 eboot, and if you can’t, just wait till Davee release v5.1.

  • Cratic16 Said on September 17th, 2011 at 21:20 BST:

    @felystar Thanks…….

  • Mefayor Said on September 20th, 2011 at 09:34 BST:

    hi Davee , i just want to ask you if you think that i could “repair” my broken f0 – i think something went wrong when i was downgrading my PSP 2004 ( TA 088v3 mobo ) from 6.60 to 6.20 and now my VSH menu does not work on Light Custom Firmware and my home button does not respond at all , instead DISPLAY button is acting as both display and home button , and whenever i play Tekken Dark Resurrection or some other games ,it does not respond to any button input – do you think i could fix this somehow with PSAR dumper by dumping original f0 from the eboot 6.20 i have used for downgrade and then “flashing” it via PC and usb cable to my PSP – i mean like exchanging some prx files or whatever that is used for buttons , or do you think there is any way i could fix my PSP since i have ta 088v3 ? i’d really appreciate if you’d help me .

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 20th, 2011 at 11:48 BST:

    @Mefayor it could be a great idea! :D but first we should listen to davee ;)

  • Davegetta Said on September 22nd, 2011 at 19:08 BST:

    I had 9g in 6.60, I don’t know why? I tried and tried, but coulnd’t downgrade to 6.20, then I try to downgrade to 6.9 and it worked, but when I restart… It bricked. There is a solution for re-alive my PSP? I saw a new Pandora Battery in you tube… It’s real? Please help me… Buaaaaaa… =(

  • Pushkar Said on September 23rd, 2011 at 12:26 BST:

    @Davegetta – Pandora Battery doesn’t work on a 09g.

    AFAIK, there is NO firmware called ’6.9′. Did you want to say 6.39?

    If so, which downgrader did you use? It shouldn’t really brick your PSP. Anyhow, there isn’t any way to ‘Unbrick’ it, sorry.

  • felystar Said on September 23rd, 2011 at 20:59 BST:

    Davee, any news about v5.1?

  • combie Said on September 24th, 2011 at 03:49 BST:

    can I ask some question …the 6.60 09g can downgrade to 6.20 or not… or its true.. that cannot downgrade to 6.20..:(

  • Jason Said on September 25th, 2011 at 03:46 BST:

    Hey there, finally ran into a problem. I ran the 6.60 update, and then downgraded again just to see if it would work. It did, but now I can’t upgrade back to 6.3x or 6.60.

    Many thanks for all your hard work Davee, its a shame some people can’t appreciate great programming, like what happened with Coldbird. I just want to be as helpful as possible, I can’t code for crap, lol.

    Good luck guys!

  • Pushkar Said on September 25th, 2011 at 07:15 BST:

    @Jason – You will be able to move from 6.20 to 6.3x or 6.60 and vice versa freely in v5.1

    Good luck Davee. I wish I could be of help. I can’t code crap. lol

  • batelcho Said on September 25th, 2011 at 20:06 BST:

    Hello, great work!
    I have a question
    My psp is psp 3001 and the mobo is TA-095v2.I dumped the 0×51 key and the version info in it is 6.39
    I’ve tested downgrader v4, v4.1, v5 and non of these had success to downgrade even to 6.35 from 6.39 or 6.60 but i downgraded to 6.39 from 6.60 with v5. Can i edit key 0×51 to say 6.20(or replace it with another from older psp because of the magic numbers after the version info – i have one with 2.60) because i guess this is the reason for errors we get or i can cause a brick that way?

  • SONYGHTMARE Said on September 25th, 2011 at 23:01 BST:

    You can’t, because the file that indicates the version of firmware is digitally signed, and if you try to edit it, you’ll have a beautiful brick

  • combie Said on September 26th, 2011 at 02:22 BST:

    wow.. its verry grate,.. i cant wait his new downgrader…, by the way.. when he completely realese there downgrader….? may be that is so verry hard to complete.. and so many function.. by the way its ok.. go davee .. go.. more people trust in you.. and im the one of them.. tumbs up,, god bless you body..

  • Davee Said on September 26th, 2011 at 03:15 BST:

    Well, should probably write something since it’s been like 2345654364253454 weeks since i last did. Anyway, been starting up in uni, getting settled in and other personal stuff, so haven’t dedicate a whole lot of time (if any) to the project.

    It’s getting done, it’s pretty much done.

    @batelcho,
    Key 0×51 isn’t the key responsible for the error, it is key 0×100. key 0×100 has a flag at + 0×7 of the certificate which is used as a SKU identifier. This is used in PSCODE and checked against a list in the updater PSAR. That certificate is also signed with ECDSA so you need to find a donor pair with firmware 04g and re-sign the certificate for the 09g. After this is done, it will allow you to update “naturally” around < 6.30 firmwares.

    6.30+ checks the hardware, so it’s stuck until it’s patched. Unfortunately, the nature of the downgrader is going down firmwares, not up. It also not designed for multiple firmware or such, but it’s been cleaned up and it’s much easier for support.

  • Pushkar Said on September 26th, 2011 at 11:07 BST:

    @Davee – So I won’t be able to upgrade back to 6.30+?

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 26th, 2011 at 19:37 BST:

    wait davee, if we downgrade for example from 6.20 to 6.10 with downgrader 5.1 then we will be able to upgrade back?

  • felystar Said on September 26th, 2011 at 22:31 BST:

    Davee you say that you have to do other personal stuff and you haven’t dedicate a whole lot of time to the project, but you’re still working on it?
    I say, will you release?

  • genkam Said on September 27th, 2011 at 04:34 BST:

    Hi guys.For those who are having issue with downgrading to 6.20 from 6.35 or higher, it seems like there are several original 6.20 firmwares floating around. I had the same initial issue with the downgrader bringing me back to the XMB screen and nothing would change. I’ve found out that as soon as I DL a different 6.20 OFW eboot it worked. However the issue is now that I have 6.20 Pro-B 9 installed with PP, my games are not recognized,instead it’s being recognized as corrupted files. I was wondering if anyone else have the same issue as I did and what was the solution, if any? I would like to thank Davee for his time in programming this cool downgrader.

  • GigEmPhats Said on September 27th, 2011 at 07:13 BST:

    Can’t downgrade. The IDXFFFFFFF error is what I get. PSP 3001 09g. If anyone knows, I would like the help, If not then I guess I have to wait for v5.1.

    Where did you download the OFW file? The EBOOT.PBP file for 6.20 OFW. Thanks!

  • deswryn_21 Said on September 29th, 2011 at 14:54 BST:

    Well, i got the OFW here. http://psp.dashhacks.com/system/files/PSP_620_FW_UPDATE.RAR
    At first, I noticed that the EBOOT.PBP that i downloaded first was only 26.5 mb, then i downloaded another and it was 27.5 mb this time (file size), yes, they’re different. I read that someone (i forgot the name, he’s in this forum, though) tried downloading another OFW and made it work.

  • deswryn_21 Said on September 29th, 2011 at 15:07 BST:

    The issue is from manaboy and GiuseppeGo!PSP (try searching for their post here), it is known ans the “SUSPEND” issue. (Read their posts to identify the problem). At first, i tried many times in Downgrading but no luck, then i just downloaded the “RIGHT” OFW, and BOOM,,, 6.20!!! (See above). I’m expecting at first that i Will have this “ISSUE” but after installing 6.20 Pro-B5 (with permanent patch). I didn’t get the problem. I tried, suspending it from the recovery menu, removing the battery, turning off, suspending from the switch and even from the recovery menu… but i still didn’t see the issue, and that’s a good thing. (Sorry for my late Post, because I went to school this afternoon-Phils.)

  • deswryn_21 Said on September 29th, 2011 at 15:15 BST:

    @Davee, can you test my steps, just to make sure? just ask me if I can test anything, as long as I and my PSP is the right choice. here’s my email: deswryn_21@yahoo.com

    @manaboy, what is your CFW??? I use 6.20 Pro-B5 on mine, so try it and see if there are still the same problem.

    note to everybody: sorry if i have incorrect grammar, and use this AYOR (at your own risk). I just did what worked for me.

    Thanks Davee for sharing you Brain and Talent to us. MARAMING SALAMAT!!! (Thank You)

  • kelvin Said on September 29th, 2011 at 15:39 BST:

    @deswryn_21 when you plug a usb cord in when your on cfw does your psp freeze? This is the only issue I have with 9g 6.20 pro b.

  • deswryn_21 Said on September 29th, 2011 at 15:39 BST:

    @genkam, I din’t have the problem… Mine is 6.20 Pro-B5… the games work. The only (TINY TINY TINY TINY) issue for me is that on the system information, it says i have 0.4g rather than 0.9g (I really have 0.9g before), I guess that’s because of the older firmware which doesn’t recognize the newer G (Generation??).

    Sorry again for any incorrect grammar.

    deswryn_21@yahoo.com

    –i guess it worked for me because of ditching class and just tweek my PSP–

  • deswryn_21 Said on September 29th, 2011 at 18:38 BST:

    NOTE: before, mine was on 6.39, then I downgraded to 6.35. I don’t know if that will help but it worked for me. Also, try uninstalling your CFW, see if it works.

    Again, Sorry for my Bad English

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on September 30th, 2011 at 18:55 BST:

    @pushkar i think that with 5.1 you should just downgrade to 6.00, then upgrade back to the desired OFW ;)

  • kelvin Said on October 1st, 2011 at 06:35 BST:

    HOW I DOWNGRADED. My current firmware version is 6.20 pro b9 and I have a psp 3000 9g.Before I downgraded to 6.20 I was on 6.39 then downgraded to 6.35.I only used pro, no other cfw. All updates I recieved were from pspdashhacks.com.I believe I used 6.XX Downgrader V4 for my psp which I again found on dash hacks.When I successfully downgraded to 6.20 I ran the 6.20 pro b9 and it worked.Next I ran the perma patch and it seemed to work.When I completely shut my psp off then back on sometimes I still had the perma patch other times I would have to run it again.I dont use the perma patch update anymore.I think that’s what caused my psp to have two error.When I launch pro b9 everythinig is working perfect except for two things anytime I plug a usb cable in to get in usb mode my psp freezes.This doesent happen when im on ofw but only when I launch the cfw.The other problem is that I cant update my psp back to any other firmware version whether im on ofw or cfw.

  • kelvin Said on October 1st, 2011 at 07:19 BST:

    lol scratch that usb error I said and the non perma patch.I played around with the psp for an hour and now I have pro permanent b5 and no usb freeze problem anymore!

  • deswryn_21 Said on October 1st, 2011 at 12:55 BST:

    So the older pro b5 will work over than the latest pro b9. I’m glad i’m lazy enough that I got pro b5 first. I guess that will fix the problem.

  • deswryn_21 Said on October 1st, 2011 at 13:04 BST:

    @kelvin, Your post will surely help others. That’s what I did in my PSP and it worked perfectly and still working fine.

    @deswryn_21 not for me.
    you were lucky cause it worked for you, but mor millions(maybe less xD) of people it didn’t. i don’t know why,Davee just said he forgot to add a lot of stuff from firmwares.
    Do you have TA-095 or TA-095v2
    Because this worked for people who have TA-095 and it didn’t for people who have TA-095v2

  • Jason Said on October 5th, 2011 at 07:56 BST:

    This is going to sound weird, but if you’re having problems using USB mode, try another cable. For some reason, about 2 days ago, I couldn’t use my USB Mode anymore. I tried, and tried, and it didn’t work, so I grabbed the cable from my mini camcorder, and it worked! I dunno why that happened, but its not the cord, it still works…. It just can’t be used with my PSP.

    Anyway, Davee if you need any more testers willing to sacrifice their PSPs.. for science… let me know, I’ll be more than glad to help, any way I can. Thanks again!

  • Pushkar Said on October 6th, 2011 at 07:29 BST:

    @felystar I have TA-095. Maybe it worked for me because of that.

  • Moe♥Moe♥Kyun! Said on October 6th, 2011 at 07:45 BST:

    So I have observed the PSP units that I have downgraded using this downgrader. They have these data in common.

    1) 03g, 04g, 07g, 09g. The downgrader worked PERFECTLY for the units which are 03g to 07g.
    2) The 09g however, was tested on two units. My friend’s unit and mine. It worked on his unit PERFECTLY without any bugs etc. Mine however, failed because I got the IDXFFFFFFFF error.
    3) The differences and similarities between my friend’s unit and mine are:

    A. His unit has the EXTRAS tab in the XMB while mine doesn’t have it.
    B. His motherboard type was TA-095 while mine was TA-095v1 (Take note of the v1)
    C. Both PSP’s original firmware when it came out of the box was VERSION 6.35.
    D. Our PSP are both running on 6.35 PRO-B9
    E. Both are units are PSP 3006
    F. Color. Yes. I thought I should put this. His PSP was Piano Black while mine was Mystic Silver.

    That’s about it that I have observed. I’m still looking at the Tachyon etc similarities. Hope this helps.

  • Shrubzzz Said on October 7th, 2011 at 13:32 BST:

    @Davee
    We are waiting for you since 1st of last month!!!
    Please release v5.1 fast!!!

  • firekid654 Said on October 7th, 2011 at 17:52 BST:

    chill he will release it when he wants to
    just wait

    PS thanks davee for the downgrader

  • Jason Said on October 7th, 2011 at 20:26 BST:

    Yeah, calm down a bit. You DO realize this isn’t exactly easy work, right? There’s a reason suspend doesn’t work for some people, or that you can’t upgrade back to a newer FW, Davee and some1 have to figure out what’s wrong, why its wrong, and how to fix it, not exactly easy work on something that’s not meant to be able to do what they got it to do in the first place.

    Davee,think of each one of us, we’re all in trouble, we are believe in your tool, and screwed up us, please, think well, we spend several dollars to buy a psp, and in times of depression, makes all the difference. I’m without mine, and I am very sad, guy. Please, on behalf of each one, launch a fix for the errors, I know that you can friend, so it’s not hard.

  • Pleasseee Said on October 8th, 2011 at 21:33 BST:

    I contacted some1′s, and he said wich is willing to modify the source to correct the errors.

    So Dave, give a position even when you will release, this year or not, otherwise I will buy another PSP.

    Thanks

    I was on 6.60 and in the update I put eboot of 6.60 update and it worked but when I put 6.35 eboot it didn’t work!!!!
    So as it is not working for 6.35 eboot it’ll not work on 6.20
    If you solved this problem then it may work!!!

    @those who are stuck at 6.00 or at something else!!!
    Tell DjGodMan to make a permanent GOD cfw for that version bcoz PRO team is closed!!!!

    5.1 Version?

  • davee fanboy who died Said on October 20th, 2011 at 12:41 BST:

    looks like this is one of them things promised but never got released ..

    davee quit sucking your boyfriend’s dick and release the damn thing , people have been waiting for a long time now ..

    - never give school as an excuse , only dumb people use school as an excuse
    - never give an ETA when it wont be met
    - stop getting people’s hopes up for something

  • Jason Said on October 20th, 2011 at 14:35 BST:

    Listen davee fanboy, if you don’t like it, program it yourself, do the testing, and get it out there. Apparently, you’re so knowledgeable about how PSPs work, and how programming works, etc. If he can’t release it yet, he can’t release it yet, simple. And, I don’t recall him ever giving an exact date or time it was being released.

    Like I said, if you don’t like what he’s doing, go somewhere else, or do it yourself.

  • davee fanboy who died Said on October 20th, 2011 at 16:00 BST:

    Jason i bet your also one of the people who suck’s davee’s dick Ü
    bwahahahaha !

    if you try to scroll up you’d see an ETA of some sort , i suggest you read the whole article from the start to this comment again :)

  • Jason Said on October 21st, 2011 at 08:04 BST:

    @ davee fanboy, I bet you’d like to watch someone suck a dick, wouldn’t you?

    “if you try to scroll up you’d see an ETA of some sort ” Fine then. Where is it? You want to prove it, find it and show it to me, and that doesn’t mean “by the end of the year,” that technically means that by December it will be released.

    People do this in their free time. They do have jobs, lives, friends, and family. Those are most important. If they have time to work on a hobby, then they will. They’re not getting paid for it, and if they are getting donations, I don’t think they’re getting much. You’re not entitled to anything, I can’t wait until 5.1 comes out, but, if it never comes out, oh well. If you don’t like the fact that people have real lives to look forward to, then why not just program it yourself, since you have so much knowledge on the subject.

    If you can find proof of an ETA, as in a DATE or MONTH or YEAR, not just “When I feel like it,” then maybe I’ll be able to believe you more.

    BTW, I’m appalled that instead of actually giving an argument, you just accused me of sucking his dick. If you’re going to try and argue that you’re right, then at least try to prove it.

    Davee Said on September 4th, 2011 at 16:17 BST:
    Should be today.

    oh and btw i love that snivy avatar of yours LOL ..
    enough dick sucking i was just trolling anyway

  • Jason Said on October 21st, 2011 at 23:09 BST:

    @davee fanboy Ok, thank you. Whenever you try to argue a point, you must present the evidence yourself. Simply calling someone a dick sucker does nothing. And I know you were just trolling, but I love feeding the trolls, its funny (sometimes), at least you knew when to stop, haha.

    At least somebody knows what a Snivy is, lol! Snivy is actually my favorite Starter, I usually choose Fire Type, but yeah.

  • venomus Said on October 26th, 2011 at 04:47 BST:

    @jammer

    dude… did you not read up on what you were doing before you did it? It’s all over the place saying that you will not be able to update owf after the downgrade… if you made a nand backup you’re good, just restore it and start over…. if not…. you’re just gonna have to wait for Davee and Some1 to release v5.1 of the downgrader…. good luck man

  • Pushkar Said on October 26th, 2011 at 13:33 BST:

  • StepS Said on October 26th, 2011 at 20:43 BST:

    Damn, too bad that you didn’t release your downgrader in August :( you would be able to release the 5.1 fix until september!

  • Jammer Said on October 26th, 2011 at 22:01 BST:

    @venomous but i was trying to go down to 6.20 but the website probably gave me the wrong ofw because the picture said 6.20 but when i downgraded my psp it said 6.10. SO YOUR TELLING ME IM BASICLLY IM SCREWED

  • Jason Said on October 27th, 2011 at 20:03 BST:

    @Jammer If you want to put it that way, yes, you’re screwed. Whenever you’re doing something dangerous with your PSP, like downgrading, or even applying CFW, you have to check, and double check your work. All you can do is wait until 5.1 comes out.

  • Jammer Said on October 27th, 2011 at 23:08 BST:

    oh great fantastic thats delightful how will 5.1 help IF IM ON 6.10
    OFW PLEASE TELL ME THAT. NOW IM PISSED AT THE SITE THAT GAVE ME THE WRONG FIRMWARE AND CLAIMED IT WAS 6.20 THAKS FOR RUINING A PERFECTLY GOOD PSP AND DOWNGRADE CHANCE!!!!!!!

  • Pushkar Said on October 28th, 2011 at 04:18 BST:

    v5.1 will (hopefully) add compatibility to move up and down firmwares. So be patient, please. We too have been waiting from the 1st of September, it’s going to be 2 months soon. Sp please let Davee and some1 do their job. It will be released whenever it has to be. If you make Davee release it earlier, then you guys may flame him for ‘bricking yo’ psp’, ‘fix it’ , etc.

    No one wants that. So learn to wait.

  • MOwNzU Said on October 28th, 2011 at 08:08 BST:

    lol the problem isn’t that I want to upgrade, its the fact that many ISO’s aren’t working with 6.20 pro b9, which does take the piss, put lightly.

    Not rushing you or anything, but release v5.1 as soon as you can :)

  • kelvin Said on October 28th, 2011 at 17:29 BST:

    Try pro-b 10..it was released yesterday

  • Jason Said on October 28th, 2011 at 19:57 BST:

    @jammer STOP SCREAMING, THERE’S NO REASON FOR IT!!!!!11

    Anyway, Pushkar said it best. Anyone that’s used it is stuck where they are at for now.

    And I’d prefer a PSP stuck on 6.10 any day over a bricked PSP ;)

  • Jammer Said on October 28th, 2011 at 22:10 BST:

    @Jason Sorry about that but your right but than again i still have a gamestop warranty wouldn’t it be better to brick it if not than ill try somthing else

  • Jason Said on October 29th, 2011 at 07:22 BST:

    @Jammer Its cool, haha. Sometimes people get pissed off, and its ok to be mad.
    I’d be incredibly careful with what you’re doing though. If you brick it, and GameStop suspects foul play, they don’t have to accept the return, so you’ll have a brick, and no money. If you want a really quick fix, you could just take it back as is and give some excuse, and they’ll get you another one. I’d do that, but I didn’t get mine at GS.

    It’d be cool if you could figure out how to get it working, but I don’t think I want to part with my PSP so soon, so I won’t even try, haha, until I get a PSP Go :P

  • snailface Said on October 30th, 2011 at 18:27 BST:

    There are evidently two kinds of 09g systems from what I heard on Wololo — a TA-095 and TA-095v2. The latter is still having issues like not being able to go back to 6.20 after the first ‘escape’ from 6.20. I’m sure Frostegater will sort it out. :)

    Use a program called PSPident to find out which 09g you have:

  • Pushkar Said on November 8th, 2011 at 16:40 BST:

    @Totalchaos Try 6.35 to 6.20. If that doesn’t work, just try some1′s downgrader V4. not v5.

    If that doesn’t work, well, you’re pretty much screwed.

  • Totalchaos Said on November 9th, 2011 at 06:31 BST:

    Ok, I downgraded to 6.35 from 6.39 yet i cannot go to 6.20 due to the CAAFFFFFCF7 error code. Is this simply something due to me being dumb? I got the 6.20 OFW FROM three different sites, so i would imagine its not just the wrong file. as i said it is a 04g so it should be able to go down 6.2. amirite?

  • Shinji Said on November 9th, 2011 at 19:07 BST:

    Alright, what gives?

    I have a PSP 2001 Slim/Lite with 6.60 OFW and a 02g module.
    I downloaded the Chronoswitch Downgrader and downloaded an OFW 6.20 eboot from somewhere else. I put the downgrader in the GAME folder and the 6.20 eboot in UPDATE. I started up the downgrader, it detected my 02g module and says that it will attempt to downgrade from 6.60 > 6.20. I pressed X to start it, then it says “Ok, good to launch”, but after a couple of seconds, it returns to the XMB menu. So I checked the System Setttings to make sure, and guess what…it’s still on 6.60.

    ಠ_ಠ What the hell? Why didn’t it work? What am I doing wrong?

  • venomus Said on November 10th, 2011 at 04:52 BST:

    @shininji

    hey man, i would suggest downgrading to 6.35 first then from there attempting to downgrade to 6.20… a lot of people have had this issue as well and it sometimes works and allows the downgrade to 6.20… it’s still not 100% but it’s another option you can try man

  • Manaboy Said on November 11th, 2011 at 23:29 BST:

    Just thought to have a look to see if there was any progress,

    @deswryn_21, I believe it was “620PRO-B9” however I am not 100% certain on that.

    Just a quick update, luckily my PSP 3003 was in warranty so I sent it to $ony to get it fixed and they did it for free, next time I’ll think twice before updating,

    At the moment I’m sticking to 635PRO-B10 fast recovery mode.

    The point is a year back it was not possible to permanent hack PSP 3003 3g, “Hen+ the other thing (can’t remember)” was need to temp hack it, now a way was discovered to permanent hack PSP 3003 3g, so hopefully in the future a full hack would be available for 9g 635.

  • Mayakovsky Said on November 22nd, 2011 at 21:48 BST:

    Well, i´ve been looking everyday into this page and for sometime we got no news about the development of the 5.1 version of Chronoswitch. I know you are all very busy (i am very busy myself), but i just want to know if there are some news about it, even if they are not good ones.

  • xyber Said on November 25th, 2011 at 08:09 BST:

    Hi guys, I’m not sure where to post this and I hope this is the right place.

    I used the PSP Chronoswitch Downgrader to downgrade my 9g PSP to 6.20 OFW then used this to patch my PSP to 6.20 pro b10 fix 1. So far so good. However, I realize when I turn my PSP to standby mode, instead of standing by, it shuts off. It’s not that big of a problem but it is time consuming to reach a savepoint before turning off my PSP. Is there anyone else facing this problem, and would anyone know a workaround/solution to the problem?

    p.s. I know this is a common problem now

    Cheers
    xyber

  • venomus Said on November 26th, 2011 at 03:56 BST:

    Hi man,i have a question – what would happen if i will overwrite on a PSP 2004 ( EU SLIM) TA 088v3 files in Flash0 with the original ones-i have dumped vsh/modules/etc. from official 6.20 fw( which i have installed on my PSP now)-will that brick my PSP? i did the same thing on my older PSP FAT which turned this PSP again in a factory defaults,so is it possible even on a ta 088v3 ?

    sorry, it should be pro-b5…try it,,, it works for me

  • fishbonex Said on December 7th, 2011 at 05:46 BST:

    hmmm…. i think it goes like this..
    if your psp is lower than 6.35/6.31 use 6.20 PROB4 permanent patch..
    but, if you have 6.35/6.31 with 09g model.. use davees chronoswitch and follow Manaboy’s post… you will be then in 6.20 and can be permanent patch…. no need to upgrade anymore to higher version coz most of the games now are supported by 6.20 PROB4… but if you still insist in upgrading then wait for davees 5.1…

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH DAVEE AND THE ONES WHO HELPED IN THIS PROCESS!! AWESOME!!

    Hello everybody… So, is there news about V 5.01

    It´s a little bit early but, Happy New Year!!!

  • GiuseppeGo!PSP Said on December 30th, 2011 at 09:13 BST:

    Hey, i’m still waiting, any news, Davee?

  • Me Said on January 3rd, 2012 at 16:37 BST:

    Was waiting for this, but I just stop over to say that I don’t need it anymore. I’m fine with Pro, I will not even try this if it’s ever finished (probably never).

  • David Costa Said on January 3rd, 2012 at 19:25 BST:

    I would like to make a patch for this, i’m stuck at ofw 6.20 on a 09g module with the error IDXFFFFFFFF and the PSP is not mine. :( I think the process of forcing the system to seems 04g module should be done by recnogizing the original module which is 09g module and patch the system back to the correct version of the 300x 09g motherboards that is from v6.30.

  • Glaco Said on January 10th, 2012 at 18:33 BST:

  • Brian Said on January 12th, 2012 at 13:04 BST:

    How about the IDXFFFFFFFF error a lot of us are getting? We’re getting this error when trying to downgrade from 6.60-6.20 or 6.39-6.20. Thanks for not forgetting us Davee!

  • DARKSIDE Said on January 14th, 2012 at 21:47 BST:

    I’m in the same boat. IDXFFFFFFFF when trying to DOWNGRADE from 6.60

  • SniperJunkie Said on January 15th, 2012 at 00:33 BST:

    Hi dude, awesome downgrader! Managed to go 6.39-6.60-6.39 can’t get any lower but was to be expected as its a 9G v2 with 6.39 pre-installed :)

  • Shrubzzz Said on January 19th, 2012 at 10:19 BST:

    By the way could anyone tell me difference between ta-095 and ta-095v2!

  • Stefano Said on January 20th, 2012 at 08:52 BST:

    Quindi il probleme per cui si ottiene l’errore IDXFFFFFFFF, è perchè si possiede una scheda madre TA-095V2?

  • Stefano Said on January 20th, 2012 at 09:01 BST:

    So the problem for which you get the error IDXFFFFFFFF, it’s because you have a motherboard TA-095V2?

  • Shrubzzz Said on January 21st, 2012 at 09:02 BST:

    yes

    is their much difference as Davee is still working on it??

  • Stefano Said on January 21st, 2012 at 15:59 BST:

    I now have 6.20 PRO permanent installed. :) I noticed that if I set it to sleep, it just turns off (suspend bug). After I try to set it to sleep, it takes a couple tries before it boots up again. A small price to pay.

  • Brian Said on January 22nd, 2012 at 23:44 BST:

    Thanks Davee, everything works fine. Any way of fixing the suspend bug though?

  • Alexandr Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 00:20 BST:

    Not working for me, tested all versions.
    PSP-3008, ta-095v2, firmware 6.60.
    I buy my PSP with 6.60, maybe it problem…

    Who downgrade – what a memory card on your psp?
    Maybe my memory card wrong to downgrade…
    She originally 8Gb memcard (MagicGate supported), but she from series HG.

  • Alexandr Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 12:55 BST:

  • Brian Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 13:11 BST:

    I’d ask Davee about this, but my best guess is that your psps were shipped with 6.60. Mine came with 6.39. Now, about that suspend bug, Davee, do you think you can correct it?

  • Stefano Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 13:24 BST:

    Is it stable?

  • Stefano Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 13:30 BST:

    This is my PSP: http://i39.tinypic.com/iwt2bn.jpg
    And i have a Memory Stick 8GB Original….

  • Raf@ Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 15:35 BST:

    my theory is…
    When a psp come’s with OFW up to 6.31 and you upgrade to 6.xx you can’t downgrade to another OFW than 6.31

    Sorry for my english but i am from CHILE

  • Raf@ Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 15:37 BST:

    0×00000660

    OMG! Work! Work!

  • Brian Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 18:59 BST:

    Yeah, it’s been stable so far. ISOs run fine, so do home-brews. Only complaint is the suspend bug.

  • Alexandr Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 19:12 BST:

    Hmmm, interesting.
    Downgrader allows to reflash from 6.60 to 6.60.
    Maybe use this trick:
    at the time of the firmware from 6.60 to 6.60 replace the module 9g to 4g and after this trick downgrade to 6.20?

  • Alexandr Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 19:15 BST:

    Davee, please, realise this – in reflash from 6.60 to 6.60 replace module 9g to 4g!
    I think is really help to downgrade people with psp with error IDxFFFFFFFF.

  • Salvador Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 19:30 BST:

  • UBeeNStryKed Said on January 23rd, 2012 at 22:55 BST:

    Hey Davee, loving my “04g” with permanent cfw. Is there any way that you could fix the suspend/sleep bug? I use it a lot, and it gets kind of annoying running my game everytime I turn it on.

  • Davee Said on January 24th, 2012 at 00:48 BST:

    It’s low on the priorities atm.

  • UBeeNStryKed Said on January 24th, 2012 at 01:28 BST:

    I thought you said in one of your comments above that their is no priority atm.

  • UBeeNStryKed Said on January 24th, 2012 at 01:30 BST:

    Anyway, a lot of people, here, and on other sites, such as my site, sneakycodez, have this problem. Besides, you corrected the other error I and a bunch of others were having. This is another problem to correct. You said you’d issue a patch too.

  • Paris Said on January 24th, 2012 at 02:27 BST:

    Hey I have a PSPgo 05g running 6.60 ofw. I have the 6.20 ofw in the UPDATE folder, and the downgrader in the game folder as well. I’m quite used to how all things work on psps as I’ve hacked quite a few. However running the downgrader seems to work ok, after all the prompts however the screen goes black for a bit then an error shows up saying a newer version is already installed no need to update. Then for a brief moment after the error closes I can see that it was trying to run the 6.20 update yet nothing happens. Then back to xmb. Please help!

  • song Said on January 24th, 2012 at 17:13 BST:

  • Alexandr Said on January 26th, 2012 at 21:52 BST:

    repelon, thank you! With this tachyon downgrade is really…
    Please, make screenshot from Everest2 from section “System” (very interesting item “factory firmware”).
    I’m contacted with one PSP programmer, need this information, from you, because you downgrade PSP with this Tachyon.
    Just look at the problem, after this PSPident screenshot there was one version – factory firmware version 6.60, and/or in the code are other errors, such as in “Paris Said on January 24th, 2012 at 02:27 GMT,” although he PSP is 5G.

    Hey Guy! I discovered a method to put in suspension from the PSP XMB…. It is currently the only one I found ….From the “XMB”, start the “VSH” menu by pressing “select” and set the CPU frequency to “20/10″, then wait a few seconds and raise the power levers …. and the PSP will get suspended … Just as we put the frequency in “20/10″, the next time the PSP gets lag …..

    My PSP is 3004 TA-095v2 09g OFW 6.60

    I need to understand something about the 5f downgrader.
    Where do I find the 6.60 04g OFW?! So that I can downgrade from 6.60 09g to 6.60 04g.
    Is it ok to use the 6.60 LME so that I can run the 5f Downgrader?
    After downgrading to 6.60 04g I have to attempt to downgrade to 6.20 OFW and afterwards to use the permapatch, correct?

    Tell me if I missed anything.

    Thanks!
    K

    Hey Guy! I discovered a method to put in suspension from the PSP XMB…. It is currently the only one I found ….From the “XMB”, start the “VSH” menu by pressing “select” and set the CPU frequency to “20/10″, then wait a few seconds and raise the power levers …. and the PSP will get suspended … Just as we put the frequency in “20/10″, the next time the PSP gets lag …..

    And a fix for the sleep mode.

  • Davee Said on February 1st, 2012 at 16:40 BST:

    Oh dear.

    Well done to Frostegater, but I do not recommend running the “Pre-Downgrader”. It involves manipulating IDStorage key 0×51, which contains the factory firmware. This key is “signed” to each PSP individually and this code does not resign your key.

    This means a future update can render your PSP inoperable by Sony enforcing a simple check on the signature at boottime.

    I am not sure if we can regenerate this key at all, but if we cannot, and you lose it. It is gone forever. So either backup your Idstorage keys before running this program or don’t run it.

  • Davee Said on February 1st, 2012 at 16:55 BST:

    I should clarify that the chance Sony does that is low, but better safe than sorry. Just backup idstorage and you’ll be ok.

    Sleep-Fix does not work …. : \
    Works in the XMB while in games and PS1 games do not …..

    I successfully downgraded my PSP 3006 09g from 6.35 OFW to 6.20 OFW and it’s currently running on 6.20 PRO-B10 Permanent CFW. It’s been 24 hours since the downgrade and I still can’t find any bugs or any problems. I can’t even find the suspend/sleep bug. I think my PSP is perfect.

    Changelog:

    Generation: It went from 09g to 04g. I checked this through PSP Everest v2.0 by Frostegater

    Does anyone know how to combine pro cfw with sleep-fix plugin???

  • keivn91 Said on February 8th, 2012 at 17:02 BST:

    Hello, wonderful work out there! The downgrader v5 worked successfully for me without the IDXFFFFFFFF error (6.60 > 6.20). However, it didn’t go so smoothly afterwards, I cannot update to 6.20 PRO b5/b9/b10.fix, they run but then it’s the black screen of death. I also tried to use Frostegater’s upgrader to go back to 6.60, on hitting the button I get “This game cannot be started. The data is corrupted.” I tried several 6.20 CFW and TA-095 09g upgraders (same version, but different download sites) no success at all. Since I depend on ISOs,I cannot play any games now. This problem is out of ordinary and of course I take full responsibility for trying, but please HELP (PSP 3001 09g)

  • keivn91 Said on February 9th, 2012 at 13:26 BST:

    Ok for those concerned about my case, I was successful in installing 6.20 TN-B (HEN). I’m going to try reading an ISO using OpenIdea ISO loader.

  • keivn91 Said on February 9th, 2012 at 13:30 BST:

    For those concerned about my case, I was successful in installing 6.20 TN-B (HEN). I’ll try to read an ISO soon using OpenIdea ISO loader. “Crossing fingers!”

  • keivn91 Said on February 9th, 2012 at 14:47 BST:

    Okay people hear me out!

    OpenIdea loader didn’t work so I tried Prometheus and it worked. I was able to play ISOs again.

    Then my hands pained to try 6.20 PRO b10 (I was on 6.20 TN-B, try me on that), and that worked!

    I switched off, went for fast recovery, it worked like no glitches at all. So no need to use any ISO loaders!

    I would also like to mention Frostegater 095 09g upagrader also works (I was on 6.20 TN-B)

    So people with similar trouble like me, no need to say twice!!!

    Epilogue: I downgraded because of “random encounter crashes” in Dissidia 012 Duo (USA Fix) 6.35/39/60 even with sony#### iso mode, it could still crash with any enemy. But with 6.20 (TN-B or PRO [inferno iso mode] CFW) no crashing!!!!!!

    It was an old CFW way less flexible than PRO-B that helped. Nice day!
