Hmm Im starting to like the PSP now, it was lying in my drawer for about 1 year and I though I may aswell.
It was a pain hacking it, I had to downgrade to v1.5 and then put custom firmware on it v3.52 m33, Normal firmware blocks the emulators and applications except for v1.5 so v3.52 m33 has all the new update features without the blockings.

I put Vista on it :)
and like a crap load of genesis and nintendo 64, super nintendo games.
all work fab.

Yea I find it alot more interesting when it's flashed xD the only thing I find annoying for me is for some reason no homebrew is working, I tried getting Vista on my PSP but it wouldn't work lol xD

I think the only way you can downgrade 3.8-3.9 atm is pandoras battery but I'm not sure

I had v2.5 when I downgraded mine, you needed dark_alexs program and a copy of GTA Liberty Cities.

Im on the latest Custom Firmware 3.90 m33-2 and Im trying to figure out irSHELL for it, it worked on my last Firmware though there's a patch for this one, the crap thing is you can only use some features on it cause there isnt an offical irSHELL released for it so everytime you try something on the new Custom Firmware with irSHELL it crashes.
But there's an irSHELL for 3.90 m33-2 coming next week, I've also deleted my SNES emulator by accident though Im loading some more games tomarrow and I hope to get a DS emulator on it too :)
Daedalus R14 (n64 emulator) is being released soon which should let us play N64 games without lagg cause R13 has small bits of lagg.
I also added Crash Bash & Crash Team Racing both for PS1 on it :)

I wouldn't bother with the DS emulator, I heard it's really buggy and only 1 game even works for it

My mate did this too. He said it was really easy to do.

It's easy if you have 1.5 already.
It's a pain when you have 3.9 and need to use pandora.

So what can you actually get out of it? Bit of a stupid question.

I take it you need some hefty memory stick?

Puma!

For 3.90 do you need to do all that 1.5 kernal rubbish? I'm on 3.71 M33-4 and I can't use homebrew because of it and I have no idea how to switch to it to actually use it

PaulMacC

Haha, I bricked my PSP by installing Custom Themes on the Flash0 USB Hub, I had to run down to my cousins and steal his spare battery and then make it pandora, get a spare memory stick and then make them pandora, finally I have unbricked my PSP and It's alright again.
I can now run irSHELL properly, Stich downgrade to 3.80M33 via pandora.
No gbSP emu's for 3.9 atm

That's quite easy to do. You just need to go into Recovery Mode. Turn off your PSP (not put it on standby) and then hold the R button and then whilst holding it, turn on the PSP.

Don't bother with custom themes, if you have customs themes some games wont work properly with theme, you'll be better off just changing the icons
