There is no magical or universal downgrader.It would be just too easy and there wouldn’t be so many risks.We will teach you how to choose a downgrader.Three things to know before choosing a downgrader:

• Your current PSP version.
• What PSP do you have.
• If you want a hardware or a software downgrader.

How to find out what’s your current Play Station Portable version?

First turn on your PSP.Then go left to Settings.Go down to System Settings.Then right before the About PSP is the System Information.There you will find your System Software , Nickname and the MAC Adress.

How to find out what kind of Play Station Portable do you have?

There are 4 kinds of PSPs(1000,2000,3000 & Go!).The easiest and the most obvious way to find out what kind of Play Station Portable you have is from the way it looks:

• PSP 1000

• PSP 2000

• PSP 3000

• PSP Go!

Also if you don’t already have a PSP and wondering if it’s worths the money then read our post about what a PSP can offer you.

What kind of downgrade to choose?

There are two types of downgrades.The hardware way which is made with a chip installed on the PSP’s motherboard.Or the software way which is the most used.Both are risky but if you want a downgraded PSP or a Custom Firmware PSP then you’ll give them a shot.

Sadly they are both illegal and NamedLucky.com can’t give you any name of the programs or chips.But the internet could be your best friend if you search it.When downgrading we hardly recommend to have a hacked(CFW) Play Station Portable with your normal Play Station Portable.

Why?Because when doing the software way you need 3 elements:a magic memory stick , a pandora battery and a already hacked PSP.The first two things can be done completely free but you mus have the CFW PSP.The magic memory stick contains the downgrade files and the pandora battery starts up the files immediately  after the PSP is turned on with the MMStick in it.

Both elements are made from a normal memory stick and a normal battery and can be reversed to the normal mode.And they can be made only on a CFW PSP by diverse programs. Another thing to know about the CFW version of the PSP is that it comes with a recovery menu.It can be reached by restarting the PSP and during the black screen to keep pressed the R Button.

So now you have all you have to know when choosing a downgrader.And now you know a little about CFWs.Try to search the internet for tutorials or videos to help you in your downgrade.
