Hi guys,

I just had a PSP as a present. I've heard that there are some options when you first start your PSP, basically if you say YES to SUCH then you'll never be able to upgrade/downgrade firmware so you can't play download games anymore?

Is it TRUE? If so what do i need to do?

Please help, i'm not really good at the games thing.

Also which firmware version is everyone using? Anylink to download? Instructions?

These are the THREADS that i've gone through...

Beer Baron thread

Chris thread

John thread

Nghiagero thread

Latin33 thread

Thanks

Forgot to say,

I've downloaded Wangan Midnight from Torrent, can i play it with the 2.0 firmware that came with the package?

Just try it and see really.

What you really want is to downgrade the PSP back to v1.5 as that is the version which allows you to do anything and also allows you to run the latest firmware as a shell. So basically you can have all the latest version firmware goodies (eg PS3 linkage) but also all the homebrew (eg SNES emulation) stuff.

This downgrade can be done through a method call 'Pandora's battery' which you should Google for some more info.

Here is a forum you may find handy:

upgrade it to 3.71 -2 with the 1.50 kernel add on and ur PSP will play anything on the mem stick without the need for any UMD. Works great with homebrew and PSX games. Plus has a whole bunch of options also.

Use the link Wink posted and follow the instructions VERY CAREFULLY!

I know someone, but your looking at about $70.

PM me if your keen.

Is that with the latest Hack version? The pandora whatever it was?

So i can play games off the memory stick and original games? Watch movies off the memory stick and original movies without any issue?

Also somebody at the Carrabean Garden Market does the down-grade thing for $70 as well, i wasn't sure which downgrade it is.

Thanks

yes its the latest, 3.71 -2 with the 1.50 kernel, mate got it done last week, Sony 4gb mem stick; Fifa 08, MGS:PO, Sega Rally, etc all work flawlessly.

Then just d/l yourself 3GP Converter so u can convert your .avi movies into PSP format to play off the mem stick.

You have PM,

Just last question, can play Jap games?

there is no region lock for psp games or movies.

downgrading is a piss...just follow the guides on the forums and u wont go wrong. I'm playing Final Fantasy Tactics UMD on PSP with the latest firmware that allows me to play copied games as well.

i successfully loaded pandoras magic stick on my spare 1 gig memstick & can turn my battery (phat psp) into pandoras battery.

I upgraded 2 psp slims so far to 3.71 m33-2 ;) i maybe able to unbrick psp's as well ( havent tried but the site i got the hack from states i could.

if ur in sydney i can do it for you would only take 3 mins of ur time. Wouldnt mind a slab or 2 for cracking ur psp or u can just kiss me lolz

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
