Guys, if i am buying a PSP from Japan, most probably it would be japanese firmware and in japanese language right? So can i change or upgrade the firmware to the English language? I saw 2 sites. One is the official site for the North America PSP firmware update and another one is for Japan PSP firmware update. And both the sites say that the firmware is only going to work for PSP bought from the respective countries. What can i do? Thanks

Guys, I recently bought my new PSP Slim from japan. Its firmware is 3.72. How do i install 3.71m33 onto it? I understand that i need to downgrade to 1.5 first but i require a pandora battery. I also found out some forums where they say only fat psp batteries can be pandora-ed. And also i am not sure whether the pandora battery can be used as normal battery again.

The most crucial pain is that i have been told that the latest battery is pandora-proof. And, to make a pandora battery, i need to unsoldier certain pins of the chipboard which i do not wish to do unless necessary So, how do i overcome this problem. Please help. Thank you.

Make a pandora battery and download Total Newbie Easy Installer created by programmer. Search at afterdawn forums. You can download it there. This simple pack will unbrick psp, intstall 3.71m33 cfw and also make magic memory stick.

The stuffs you will need is an original PSP battery. Just pandorize the battery and then remember to reformat your memory stick with at least 256-2gb space before pandora. Cause after you pandorize your battery, it will NOT work as a normal batery anymore. So if you want to pandorize your battery, make sure you buy another spare one.

Did you format your psp or your memory stick?
