This is a Sony PSP unbricking/downgrading method that only needs ONE PSP, even if it's bricked.
Contents |
Problem
- The regular Pandora's Battery method requires a working PSP that is able to run Homebrew.
Solution
- Create a method for unbricking / downgrading any PSP running the latest firmware (like you'd buy used from anywhere) so that it will run both the latest games AND homebrew apps, without needing the help of anyone else's PSP even if your PSP is bricked.
Disclaimers
- This is NOT A NEW IDEA. It's just my writing down several old ideas in a row for future reference.
- If you screw up your PSP from following my noobish untested instructions, its not my fault. I'll post if/when I try this out and tell what the results were.
Needed items
- PSP to be worked on
- Memory Pro Duo stick
- USB Sony card reader
- Service Mode Battery (Like the Datel Tool Battery from http://us.codejunkies.com/ )
Steps
- Format the memory stick with the card reader using the mspformat utility in pandora.zip. You can download pandora.zip from noobz.eu
- Get ahold of a file called "msipl.bin" and run the installer in pandora.zip using it - this is the hard part since I'm not real sure where you can find this.
- Copy the DCv4 files (from dark-alex.org) to the memory card using the card reader (No working PSP required this way)
- Put in your memory card, put in your service mode battery. If everything works right, you should see little words on the screen. Ressurrect the PSP (To 3.xx m33)
