I've got my copy of Lumines and a 3.50 psp

I lost my 1 gb stick and was just wondering if I could downgrade with my 32mb stick before I get a larger stick?

Will it like possibly increase a failure rate?

I was guessing it's fine but just asking.

You should be able to, downgraders don't take up a lot of space. But you'll probably be stuck at 1.50 until you can get a bigger memory stick, custom firmware installers generally require more than one firmware update eboot (3.52 and 1.50 to install 3.52 M33). With the newer ones averaging around 25MB per, that almost maxes out the memory stick on its own.

There's no increased risk of failure though, just remember to keep your PSP plugged in while doing anything that involves flashing new firmware.

pick up a cheap 256mb official stick that has more than enough space and is also a perfect size for U.P.M.S if you decide you want to have a permanent pandora stick at one point

If you can find a copy of the 3.52M33 PSAR file premade, then you can use that stick to upgrade. It's copyrighted however, so it cannot be linked here. Use google.

I've tried the conversiation tool, older emus, simple homebrew, 1.50 is wayyy too hard to work with these days, I'mma have to upgrade asap.
