Okay so I am seriously considering putting the custom firmware in my PSP, but I'm super nervous about fucking up so I would like some help from someone (perferably panda or omeg because they are not INTERNET STRANGERS which is why i am not google searching) to walk me through it.

My firmware is 3.73 right now and someone said I would need a pandora battery to downgrade it. Is there any other way? 'cause none of my friends play video games and thus don't own pandora batteries, so I have no access to one.

aparently there are tutorials online to actually hack your battery.
I never tried it though, and it scares me.

I did it this way. I had all the software to make a magic mem stick, after that, it was like: pop in stick, pop in battery, psp goes into service mode automatically thanks to battery, press x, wait 2 mins, done.

I actually still have the battery laying around in case of emergency  :laugh:

I used a copy of Lumines to downgrade mine but I don't know if that works on the newer firmware anymore.

Well I just finished Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII and although the ending was sad, i already knew what was going to happen, and I heard heaps of people saying it's a tear jerker or whatever and that it made some people cry, but... it's a game, I mean it's a sad part in the game but I didn't ever feel like crying over it?

So that leaves me to my question.. did you cry over the ending of Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII?

Guys, please help, I deleted my "cheatpops" database and I dont have a backup. Can someone upload me theirs? Basically, thats a database file that contains gameshark codes for all the PS1 games.

I believe mine was in X:\seplugins\cwcheat

Theres the "CHEAT.db" and "cheatpops.db"

help :(

EDIT: nevermind, apparently I was smart (or by fluke lol) I had a backup, so  :woop:

^ On a more positive note Star Ocean 1 & 2 are listed on Gamefly. Hopefully they know something we dont.

Man, does anyone know how you keep your fucking wallpaper?

Like, whenever I change it, and turn the PSP into sleepmode or play a game, when I turn it on again, the background becomes pure black. Then you have to set up the wallpaper AGAIN.

Is there a way to make it permnant?

I had that problem before. Your flash is messed up, so you'll have to reinstall your firmware. That's how I fixed mine.

Aww crap. I guess thats not enough reason to mess with my PSP. I don't have the battery anymore and thus can't recover if I mess up.

i sort of wish the psp had as many good platformers or some shit coming out for it as it does puzzlers.  lumines is a crazily good game, crash is the coolest concept for a game i've seen in a long time and it plays really well, and this looks excellent and pretty original!  plus there's that flow game or whatever, and patapon (not a puzzler but yeah).  it seems like most of the good games that come out for the psp are random weird puzzlers/misc. games that you probably wouldn't see on normal consoles.  i'm not complaining but i wish the level of creativity extended to a lot of the shitty rpgs and shooters and platformers that get put out for it.
