About TA-082 Downgraders...

People, be honest. Chances are that any downgrader you come across that claims to work on a TA-082 PSP is fake. It's hard to say specifically why, but some sort of chipset-based protection is present that interferes with downgraders.

Given that, has anyone considered disassembling and analyzing a TA-082 system to see exactly how that blasted thing works?

They have gotten around to it, there are some things out for it, so please just sit tight and relax.

You can harddown by removing a piece of hardware inside the psp and replace it with one non ta-082 psp. go on www.0okm.blogspot.com to find out more

You can now downgrade your ta-082 as long as your on hend and 2.71 and dax made it so you know its real.

That's probably too much trouble to go too, and since the downgraders improve a lot if you just wait, it'll be sure to have a near perfect efficiency, I mean look at the generic 2.71 (non ta) downgrader: great improvement on downgraders. Patience is the only thing a worrying person needs when freaking out over a downgrader.
