yo,need some help with flash0

ok im trying to flash down to 4.01 m33-2 with hellcats recovery flasher 1.4

i got the 4.01 m3-2 EOBOOT.PHP in the recover older,renamed to 401.PHP

i go into the recovery flasher,and click flash to 4.01 M33-2,it says there have been critical errors and shit like that,anyne know why?

Psp-1k
cfw 5.00 M33-4

Ya heres some advice, dont use a recovery flasher, and stick with Rains UltraMMS. That fucks with the flash and can pottentaly brick your PSP. CJ dont use it for the sake of your PSP.

one of the features of hellcats recovery flasher is to up/downgrade to any 3.71,4.01.or 5.00

i would use time machine, then you can ^/v grade anytime with no risk of screwing up your psp

do it through the recovery menu

time machine converts a soft mod battery back to normal

@matt?run the flasher threw recovery?

yea, I forgots how to do it though

run game at PSP/GAME/EOBOOT/RECOVERY i think it is

time machine can boot you into whatever f/w you have the pbp for, and yes it converts your battery to pandora or normal too.
i dont think running your recovery eboot from the recovery menu will make a difference since youre doing the same thing as running it from the xmb, the reason thats there is if youre semi bricked and cant access the xmb.(unless thats what your problem is, i wasnt sure what the actual problem stated was)
t/m cant fix a brick, thats not wat i was saying, i was saying its safer to use it to ^/v grade than flashing because it just loads the modules from w/ever f/w you choose so its like having ofw 1.50 or 4.01 m33-2 or whatever you want and then you can safely go back up to 5.00 m33-6 withou risking a brick

never knew time machine did that?mind tellin me how?

heres a link to TM article and download
http://pspupdates.qj.net/Dark-AleX-r.../49/aid/113797

heres a link to a time machine configurator and descriptive article
http://pspupdates.qj.net/Time-Machin.../49/aid/115794

and this allows your plugins to work thru time machine when on a pre-5.00 cfw:

these may not be the latest versions out, i would check around.
but at least it'll give you the general idea what time machine can do
hope its helpful

ok i checked it out a little more, and to use time machine, you have to start out with 3.90 and then it can take you to 3.40 oe and i think 1.50.
i think you were best off using hellcats rf.
so is your psp bricked, or you just cant get the rf to downgrade you?
