Hehe ok here are further details:

1)Its the official v5.00 cuz i bought mine from aus. Im studying in as at the moment but im malaysian from penang  brows.gif

2)How to get magic memory stick??  sweat.gif

3)I wanna learn how to do it myself cuz i got another unit which i also bought from aus which is my bro's biggrin.gif So i need to help him with it also sooner or later hehe.  Keep up the replies,im learning a lot here ^^
Edit :: I thought a magic memory stick is basically a memory stick duo thats between 64 mb and 4 gb? /that one can get from the stick already supplied with the psp right?Unless im wrong  rclxub.gif

1)Ah,then it for sure is an official firmware unit.

2)Magic Memory Stick actually is standard memory stick pro duo which has pandora files on it.That's why it's known as the Magic Memory Stick.The creation of this memory stick is EXTREMELY easy judging by the fact that all you need to do is to run the easy-installer on your PC and it's done.

3)Oh,sure smile.gif

See my reply above,and tell me which option suits you best,and i'll try my best to guide you through it.

Ah,they cannot be modded because these motherboards are the latest attempt by sony to prevent users from hacking it using a Pandora's Battery.In other words,these mother boards,for the time being,are Pandora proof.

Hmmm i dont think it will auto update your system because the normal way of downloading updates is when you go to the "Network Update" function of your PSP.If you dont press that then I dont think the psp will find for the official updates by itself. Also,bricking happens when there is an interruption of the system while its flashing. Like in the process of updating,it says "Please dont turn off the system" or something like that. If you do then it will brick.

That,is another feature that may cause some problems.But recent M33 firmwares DO NOT have the official firmware update function.This is because Dark_AleX has replaced it with a "custom firmware downloader" instead.So,if you "accidentally" hit the network update option,you won't be disappointed tongue.gif
