Kazekage Gaara Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 I tried to run it through XMB but when I clicked on the icon, it tried to load but after that I just get a black screen. Try putting it in the GAME folder and set your kernel to 3.90 in configuration/recovery menu. See if that works. If it doesn't work, then put it in GAME380 folder. I have a Slim which is on 3.90 M33-2, and my PSPTube folder is in the GAME380 folder with the kernel set to 3.80. It works flawlessly over there Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singh Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Hey, I just brought a PSP Slim, it's at the official 3.80 firmware. Is there anyway to make it homebrew WITHOUT the need for a spare battery / PSP? Really need to figure this out but quite a few of the guides are confusing. the guides to upgrade to 3.90 M33 are clear, but before I can do anything it seems that homebrew 1.5 is first needed to upgrade to 3.52 M33, which is what I cant seem to figure out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Karnage Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 ^ AFAIK modding the Slim requires the extra battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Wolf Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 You need a fat PSP with custom firmware, there's no other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People charge anywhere from Rs. 500 to Rs. 1500 to get it done, although I still think you shouldn't pay more than Rs. 500 to Rs. 700. Those people already have the pandora's battery and the magic memory stick ready with them, and it won't take them more than FIVE minutes to downgrade your slim. Edit: I just saw that you're in UAE, and I have no idea how much people (if any) charge over there. Best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singh Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Well, after much thought, research and reading up I finally managed to downgrade my slim and switch over to custom firmware. Currently waiting for the PSP to charge to 80% so I can upgrade to 3.90 M33-2. Had to hard-mod the battery (brought a new one to act as a regular battery) and currently essentially have a spare pandora's battery ready in case I need to mod anyone else's PSP (my bro might be getting one). Have to say the PSP is fun...now, just need to find some good games to play / acquire and I'll be all set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are some of the best games for that system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS:Plz dnt ask me to go through the entire thread as i went through the first 10 pages but couldnt find specific answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Wolf Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 It takes about 5 mins. It's quite an easy job to do, but you need a PSP which already has custom firmware on it. The grey market guys range from 500 to 1000 bucks, as they have the battery prepared beforehand. It doesn't take more than 5 minutes. If you live in Delhi I could give you the contact of a reliable guy who can do it for 500 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarketTantrik Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Will most of the dloaded games be less than 1Gb,il buy a 4 GB one later. Yes, but many recent games like Chains of Olympus and Crisis Core are larger than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaPwN Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I need a ****ing Pandora battery to mod mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Wolf Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I could've converted your battery to pandora if you sent it to me but I'm going out of country in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceoshubham Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Ok some guyz some doubts cleared some more generated- 1-Firewolf says that the process is only about 5 mins long so i presume it is just a software mod.My question-if i arrange for some spare PSP batteries from my friends will i be able to do the process myself with (Hopefully) your instructions. There isnt any danger of my console bricking right. PS-I have official firmware 3.72 Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Wolf Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 You can do it safely, and nah there's no danger of bricking. The tools for downgrading are used for unbricking as well. You need a PSP with custom firmware already on it to prepare the battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceoshubham Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Ok so the first step is downgrading. Makes me feel like a noob but how do you do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 U do know u need to open the battery to make a pandora's battery,if u have one of those..then its pretty easy.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceoshubham Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 No i dont have one of those.Can i buy one.Are they like some special battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Wolf Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 A normal battery can be converted to pandora very easily. But it can only be converted on a PSP that is already modified. Like I have a PSP with custom firmware, I can make a pandora battery easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
