Chronoswitch is a homebrew PSP utility that allows a console to freely upgrade and downgrade official PSP firmware. It is mainly useful for reverting a cIPL or Infinity console with legacy CFW to OFW, either for installing cIPL ARK-4 or just returning a console to a stock configuration.

The following guide has instructions courtesy of the one from pspunk.

Prequsites

• Having at least 80% battery life
• Fully secured battery that will not fall out
• Ideally, a charger plugged into the system
• A 6.20 or newer firmware update. Anything older instead requires a compatible PSP with a JigKick & Magic Memory Stick.

Usage

1. Download the latest build of Chronoswitch.
2. Get the desired firmware update for your PSP. They can be reached from the following places:
   • Sony CDN
   • Darthsternie's archive
   • Midnightchannel archive
3. Transfer Chronoswitch's EBOOT.PBP file in the file path of =PSP/GAME/Chronoswitch/EBOOT.PBP on the console's memory stick.
4. Transfer the firmware update file to PSP/GAME/UPDATE/EBOOT.PBP on the console's memory stick.
   • If your update file is named something like 6.61.PBP, rename it to EBOOT.PBP
5. Launch the Chronoswitch application and follow the on-screen instructions. Once completed, the PSP will restart and will now be on the official firmware version that was chosen.
