Hellcat's Flasher 1.60 Guide

Hellcat has released an awesome new flasher that is capable of performing many cool functions on our psps. Now, this flasher tool will be extremely useful for those wanting to :

1)  Reflash their semi-bricked psp units
2) Downgrade from a higher custom firmware to a lower one. 
3) Revert to an official firmware from a custom firmware
4) Upgrade directly to a new custom firmware from an older   custom firmware without having to install the 3.52m33-4 firmware beforehand.

Here's a short and simple guide on how to get Hellcat's Flasher v1.60 on your psp unit.

1) Download Hellcat's Flasher 1.60 : Hellcat's Flasher 1.60

*Download the firmware of your choice only. For instance, if you want to install 5.00m33, then   just download 500.pbp. Ignore the other firmwares* 

2) Download 3.71 official firmware : 3.71 eboot

3) Download 3.80 official firmware : 3.80 eboot

4) Download 3.90 official firmware : 3.90 eboot

5) Download 4.01 official firmware : 4.01 eboot

6) Download 5.00 official firmware : 5.00 eboot

7) Once you've downloaded the flasher, extract the files and folders off the .rar file. 

8) You should see a few folders. We want to concentrate on the one that is named RECOVERY as that is the folder that we will be using.

Note : To those whose psps are in a semi-bricked state, just boot into recovery mode, and enable USB mode there. 

9) Copy the RECOVERY folder, and paste it in "ms0:/PSP/GAME"

10) Now, copy the firmware eboot that you downloaded, and paste it in the RECOVERY folder. After doing so, your directory should be something like this : 

ms0:/PSP/GAME/RECOVERY/eboot.pbp and XXX.pbp (XXX represents the firmware name)

11) That's pretty much it. Now, just run it on your psp, and after that, everything is pretty much straight forward.
