last monday, i went to lowyat plaza looking for some stuff.

i saw game shops, made me realized that i wanted to buy the 5 pins component cable to play PSP on TV.

so i went to 1 shop, she quoted me RM120. well at that moment, i dont have the intention to buy but just wanna know whats the price for that cable. i donno if thats the price range or wat, i dun even bargain for the price. so i said, nvmind thank you n left.

then i asked for that cable from other shop in lowyat plaza, he asked me "u want to play on LCD?" i said no, just normal TV, he said cannot play on normal TV, only LCD or plasma TV... so since he said that to me, then i left.

my question is :-

whats the price range for 5 pins component cable? is RM120 as the 1st shop quoted me is expensive or cheap or so-so?

is it true, PSP + 5 pins component cable cant work on normal TV but only on LCD or PLASMA TV?

i wondered to myself "if i can afford to buy LCD or PLASMA TV which cost me +/- RM3k, why should i play PSP on the expensive TV? i think better play PS3 with that hi-tech TV"

Jasmine Chew, are you in need of a 5.00m33 upgrade guide or are you cool?

haiz, can't get online for long periods now... sekolah sudah mula

Added on January 7, 2009, 6:48 pmheh, i've been using the psp for about 3 years + now (Going to be the fourth year), and yes, i'm quite bored of playing games. If it's not for homebrew, i would have long dumped it. (Kiddin'... i would never dump it lol )

heh.. i'm maximizing the gaming & internet part, but i don't really do homebrew or media... i'm leaving those 2 out just in case i DO get bored with the first 2.. wahahahahha

which is very unlikely because of psx games support. HOHOHOHOHO

Hey there I've got a Tokobot Ori UMD, not using it anymore since I sold my PSP already.

Looking foward to sell @ RM50 COD at KL

anyone know how much psp 1000 HK version worth now

i notice many sellers of psp3000 in this forum or anywhere else claim that their psp can play downloadable games....is it true.....need u all advice in this....

really cant make up my mind whether to get a second psp2000 or a new psp3000

No man, it's not true. There is no custom firmware for it yet, so iso loading isn't possible for the time being. Homebrew, however can be run on psp3000 units IF you have a game called GripShift (UMD of course), and if you have some psp programming ability. All you need then is Freeplay's and MaTiAz's sparta! hello world. But yea, that would be stupid. I'd say, get a psp 2000 which already has custom firmware on it.

yea i also heard somewhere on the net where ppl have managed to crack psp 3000. how far it is true? can play iso / cso games?

there are rumor about it... even if they managed to cracked it...

it will be unstable... as well wait... and support original once in awhile...

cheers...

They did not manage to crack it yet. The most recent hack for it is the Sparta! hack by both MaTiAz and Freeplay, and no, you still cannot access kernel mode using it. This exploit can only be used if you have access to GripShift...UMD of course

For those who have the CR5400 and interested to get MicroSDHC, i just went to ALL IT Digital Mall yesterday and they have Class 6 8GB MicroSDHC for sale at only RM75 before bargain. One hell of a deal as i got mine from Sri Computer a few days ago at RM90.

original price is about the same price


av cable for normal tv, component av cable for lcd etc.
correct me if wrong.

Alright, first, it depends on your psp's motherboard. If it's not a TA088v3 ++, (a.k.a Pandora proof mobo's), then you would be able to install custom firmware on it using a Pandora's Battery and a Magic Memory Stick. Your current firmware doesn't really matter, and the only way to know if your mother board is Pandora proof or not, is to put it to the test. Go ahead and meet up with either Lacus, benwong88 or any other forummer out there, and give their Pandora service a shot.

well... fyi, i got my 1st psp in end of 2005, a white psp1006, on the 1st month i already know to put ir shell, flashO themes, nowdays its so ez to put all that stuff.
back then its very hard to just even update to cfw. thye i got my slims, a purple lavender. then white, then black... after that i didnt realize i got around 4 or 5 psp in my hands





and trust me, ive already put psp to the limit. fry a few mobos, overheating mobo, just to squeeze its potential to the limit. speaker mod, led mod, improving wifi antenna, heck if you
dissemble the whole psp parts, i can even put it back blind folded. and im dead serious
alot of ppl dont know phat have motion detector while slim dont..

heh, i agree with wetfusion. Firmware updates were like MAJOR updates those days. People would be freaking out in fear of bricks and all, but now days, it's just like buying a roti canai at a mamak stall.

BRICK IT BRICK IT BRICK IT

Added on January 8, 2009, 8:08 pmyup.. totally right.
but thats is a different case if you are comparing psp2k with ta88v3 mobo and psp3k

well you see the time lag between the mobo are like this

ta85 (hackable) > ta88v1&v2 (hackable) > ta88v3 ( not hackable) > afew month later sony produce ta90 that can be hack... how weird is that??? > psp3k release, psp3k is using psp2k ta90 mobo, thats why DA said it is hackable, but got a new batery IPL safety stuff.
