I know this is the wrong section and I know I can find the answer somewhere else, but meh I borrowed my friend's psp and I was wondering if I could hack it withouth spending any money on hacks, like the Pandora's Battery. It's a regular psp, not slim. thanks in advance Post Merge: [time]1297970853[/time] EDIT: right, this should be in non-emulation help. I'm sorry! (I'm in a hurry)
The original? Yeah. You can do it if you want to upgrade to 6.35, then use TN-C or D? I think it is now. Or if you want to just have permanent CFW, then you can use 5.50 GEN-D3. Use the 5.03 firmware hack or the new TN-HEN and use Hellcat's recovery flasher to install 5.00 and upgrade to 5.50 GEN-D3.
You should probably just stick with the TN-C on it if you don't want to risk bricking it. What firmware are you on?
Fine by me. Just PM me and I'll respond ASAP if you have questions about it. Or just reply to your thread since that was the whole point of it. :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipVkKmW7x7s I used this tutorial to put 5.00 m33 on my PSP 2000. It's the best and most stable custom firmware.
She doesn't want to mess up the PSP though. And without a Jigkick, then I wouldn't even attempt to install CFW. HEN is the way to go if you don't want to brick it.
you could always turn the battery into a jigkick from tn-c and use timemachine to run a cfw from the memory
Even if it reverts you to an older firmware, at least you can upgrade your way to the proper firmware for 5.00 M33 or GEN-D3 ( <-- I think I have this one). PSP1000s shouldn't have any issues if you're using a jigkick (Pandora), no matter the firmware.
