rofl,i hate starwars.Not because it's a bad movie or anything like that,but it just isn't my style.The game i love = God Of War : Chain Of Olympus.I play it a lot,but i still suck real bad at it.

Well,it depends on your psp firmware really.If you do have a psp with official firmware 2.80 or lower,then it can be downgraded using a few good downgraders.If your psp has a firmware lower than 3.50,then you'll need either Gta Lcs Unpatched or Lumines 1 UMD in order to perform the downgrade process.If you have a slim with official firmware,then you can do nothing if you don't have a Pandora's Battery.

heh,all custom firmwares can run dumped(pirated) games.The very same applies to 4.01m33.I'm using it,and it's all good..

Try setting your CPU speed to 333mhZ.It should help.

Then you'll need a Pandora's Battery in order to get custom firmware on your psp.Don't worry,a Pandora's Battery(which includes a Magic Memory Stick) can easily be created if you do have access to an already hacked psp unit.How,you may wonder...read the following.

Pandora's Battery Conversion Methods.

1)If you have an already hacked unit in hand :
-Download your favourite battery creator (My favourite is Hellcat's 3.xx creator),and run it on the hacked psp with the battery you want to convert to a Pandora's Battery in it.After the process is over,hey presto!! You'll have a Pandora's Battery in possesion

2)If you DON'T have an already hacked unit in hand :
-You'll need to open up you battery and cut a pin.This process,however is quite risky to perform mainly because wrong moves can cause injuries to your body.This process is also unreliable (Tak boleh harap) because it'll take a few batteries to get it to work if you're unlucky.


Magic Memory Stick Creation :

1)Run the MMS creator via a hacked psp unit.

2)Run the MMS creator on your PC.This method is VERY easy and very good indeed.

Choose your options,and tell me what you want to do

Wha?
I've never hardmodded my battery...

1)No,it's not a MUST to have a Pandora's Battery to upgrade from a lower custom firmware to a newer one.This however,is needed if your psp firmware is on official firmware(3.40,4.01 etc-Without the M33,OE,SE,LE,GEN etc extentions) and if you wish to install custom firmware on it.

2)It depends on your firmware.If your psp is on a custom firmware lower than 3.52m33-3,then you have to upgrade/update to it first before running the 4.01m33 installer.(I assume that you do wish to upgrade to 4.01m33)

3)Recovery mode will only work if you do have custom firmware.Follow this : Hold the off switch for 3-5 seconds,then HOLD the R trigger and boot your psp up.You should now be in recovery mode.

Good luck mate!

As far as i know,popsloader is against the EULA ruling,and it's considered as an illegal material.Sorry lah

Great,5.00M33 out!

Listen up though,several friends of mine tried upgrading and it resulted in RSOD's (Red screen of death),bricks and so on.You can of course try it though

Yup,i'm back.Just finished my PMR today.

hehe,pity your phone

By the way,nice to see you back again

Good for you then

Just wait for future updates to solve minor bugs in the firmware.

I believe you mean custom firmware 5.00M33

Only 5.00 compatible themes would work on it.4.01 or anything below it won't work.Also,i assume you're talking about CTF/Flash 0 themes and not PTF themes.

Added on October 20, 2008, 2:21 pmThere are several ways to do so.I use a useful screenshot take plugin named "Screen Capture".Here you go : Link

Yup they are.

haha,true.CTF themes are the best.

If you've got 4.01m33,follow this guide of mine.

http://psph.malloc.us/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=109

PTF themes are themes started by Sony who also released a PTF creation tool.This sort of themes all do have the same style as Sony themes and the all have the same arrangements.The only difference is that the icons look different.

XMB creators however,saw this as an opportunity to invent a new tool known as CXMB.This plugin has the ability to read CTF files.CTF themes are MUCH more better looking as they're fully customized.Even gameboots (The screen that pops up once you select a game) are customizable.Basically,everything is.You should give it a shot.Follow my guide above,and you for sure will have an excellent looking psp.

Added on October 20, 2008, 5:29 pmI use http://www.consolespot.net for all my theme needs.Click the "PSP THEMES" tab on top of the site,register and you're good to go.They've got TONS of CTF themes for all firmwares.There are plenty for 4.01m33 as well.

This post has been edited by Playboy21: Oct 20 2008, 05:29 PM

Yup,the game splash screen as well.

I'm sorry that the site is down,but don't worry,there are tons of other CTF providing sites out there.

Just google for "CTF 4.01m33" and you won't be disappointed.

Enjoy!

No liquidvamp,the CTF theme which is meant for firmwares other than 4.01m33 won't work on 4.01m33.Most of the themes that are meant for older firmwares have been converted to 4.01m33 anyway.

Ah liquidvamp,that theme is known as AppleCor.I have that very theme on my psp (4.01m33 CTF),and i like it a lot.There of course is a 4.01m33 version of that and many other beautiful themes.

Go here : http://www.consolespot.net and register.Once done,click the "PSP THEMES" tab on top,and start loading your memory stick with awesome themes.

Well,the latest hot news in the psp scene is the release of 5.00M33.I haven't upgraded yet though.There also is a new psp unit that has been released,the PSP3000.Go have a look

Yea,the brick count is definately higher on the 5.00M33 upgrade than the 4.01m33 one,but still,it's just as good as all the other firmwares.

PMR was alright.I found BM paper 1 and Science paper 2 quite challenging,but otherwisse,it was fine

Added on October 21, 2008, 10:12 amNope,it won't affect your psp in any ways.I've changed themes for ages now,and my psp is all good,so yea,no need to worry.
