Yay, Psp For Birthday Pressy, Now What?

[West]

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

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!

Thanks guy,

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.

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.
