Ok so ive come to the conclusion to run IRshells and the like, i need to install a custom 1.5 firmware that comes with all the current updates as well? have i miss understood or am i correct? and can some one point me in the direction of how to install a custom firmware?

ive done some looking around and i have the Offical 3.71 Firmware not 3.71m33 So what i have come to understand is that there is no way to downgrade Offical 3.71 firmware with out Pandoras battery? is this correct

yaaaa and dont dubble post plz

for ir shell (wich i dont use)

thats a downer...wish i could downgrade with out pandora...now it dosnt even seem worth it to me? well thanks for the help man

well u can make 1 with out a hack psp but i dont recamend it

im try 2 make 1 for my firend psp

yea ive read about the infamous "bricking" that can happen when you dont do crap correctly

ya i crash my psp 2 times brick 5 times in 1 morning lol
I LOVE RECOVERY MODE

Ok SO, from Gman's help i have come to understand that i will need a pandoras battery to downgrade from Offical3.71 My question is though do i need the "magic stick" aswell or can i do it with just pandoras battery?

The Memory Stick has the necessary files on it that will put your psp on v1.50.

Would you know of a tutorial or Video thats explains how to create a Magic stick and pandoras battery?....
