Use case examples

Scenario I:

On firmware 5.50 GEN may now easily possible to fix the message "There is no need to update."

If you try to upgrade and see the following message: "The system software of your PSP™ system is version 9.90. There is no need to update."

then you have the firmware installed FAKE version.txt from 9.90 to protect against accidental renewal.

The program will help you to replace the original version.txt to 5.50 that will set you free, and especially beginners, from the danger of manual intervention in the flash0.
