2006 = no, regardless of firmware (ur firmware is v4.05 if not mistaken).
people ask to wait coz ppl are still trying to figure out how to crackit.
my advise is if u really want modded psp, sell off urs and get a pre mod psp
Why can’t I install Custom Firmware on my PSP?
Your PSP probably has a TA-088v3 (Found in some 2000 series units) or TA-090v2 (Found in all 3000 series units) motherboard, which are, to-date, still aren’t supported by the current Custom Firmware versions so you can’t install it on them.
From here on, Here’s some clarifications:
All 1000 Series (or PSP Phat) PSPs are crackable to date. You can use Pandora and an MMS to install Custom Firmware or some other method.
The 2000 Series is a split family. It has 3 generations, differentiated by the motherboard installed on them.
1st Generation 2000 Series uses TA-085xx and is supported by Custom Firmware.
2nd Generation 2000 Series uses TA-088v3 and is not supported by Custom Firmware.
3rd Generation 2000 Series uses TA-090v1 and is supported by Custom Firmware.
So if you have a PSP Slim and don’t have TA-088v3 motherboard, rest assured that you can install Custom Firmware on it.
All 3000 Series (or PSP Brite) have the TA-090v2 Motherboard, which is still unsupported by Custom Firmware. Sony has made the latest iteration of the PSP hardware secured under a bigger lock and key. A few enterprising people claim to have the PSP-3000 hacked but it’s nothing more than smoke and mirrors.
Here’s a list of all the Motherboards made & released by Sony:
Here’s 7 ways to tell if you can install Custom Firmware or not:
What is the Firmware the PSP came with?
The original firmware that came with the PSP right out of the box is an indication of its Motherboard, & here’s the list:
Official Firmware 3.60: Supported by Custom Firmware
Official Firmware 3.71: Supported by Custom Firmware
Official Firmware 3.72: Supported by Custom Firmware
Official Firmware 3.80: Supported by Custom Firmware
Official Firmware 3.90: Supported by Custom Firmware
Official Firmware 3.95: Supported by Custom Firmware
Official Firmware 4.01: Very high chance of no Custom Firmware support
If you’ve bought a PSP with Official Firmware higher than 4.01, chances are it doesn’t support Custom Firmware, any attempt to install it will be met with a Game could not be started error.
Note: If you updated the PSP or the PSP you’ve bought has been upgraded before you got your hands on it then you need to find out what was the first firmware installed on it as the list above only applies to said version.
