Basically as the title states.
All I want to do is make my PSP screen ported to my PC monitor. Mainly cause I think Monster Hunter Freedom would be kick ass on a 17" screen!:thumbup:
So I have read MANY tutorials and thing like that to figure how to downgrade. But every damned tutorial either makes no ****ing sense (Pardon my french) or is just totally different from what another tutuorial says. But ive read one here that says I need to downgrade to Custom Firmware of "3.10 CE" or somthing alike.
Halp? +_+

Alright, I can help you.
I've downgraded a ton of PSP's but I need to know some information before I can start.


What type of PSP do you have? 1000 (fat), 2000 (slim and light), or 3000 (bright)
What version firmware do you have?


And I hate to break it to you, but I've tried playing Monster Hunter Freedom and Monster Hunter Freedom 2 on my Computer monitor... It looks terrible.

Hello Buddy, hope you can help. My son came to me to solve his psp delima. He has psp with version 5.02 on it. He want to play free game on the web but as soon as we down load them to the psp/game/ and try to run them it says game is corrupted.



It looks like these game require firm ware 3.0 or older. Is there a specific web site you can direct me to run games for the 5.02 version? do I need to downgrade?

As stated above, you will need a pandora battery and magic memory stick.
I suggest that you buy the Datel tool battery (http://www.bizrate.com/playstationaccessories/products__keyword--datel+tool+battery.html)

The Datel tool is a premade pandora battery.
The next thing that you will need to do, after you've got your battery, is to create a magic memory stick.
There are many guides to figure this out, just use google and find the one that you like best to follow.

After you've got them both ready, simply insert them into your psp and follow the on screen menus, this should be covered in the Magic Memory stick guides as well.

Good Luck to you!

lol.

Anyone who needs help downgrading needs to put
1. Firmware(go to setting => system => system information => and it is to the right of system software)
2. As far as I know...any slim or phat psp can be dealt with pandora.....and the highest firmware I recall being able to
downgrade for FREE on is 2.71 and that was on my 1000 fat. As for the pspLITEBRITEZ iunno.....

1. Get / buy / create a Pandora battery

2. Create a Magic Memory Stick

3. "Pandorize" your OFW psp to a CFW psp

You can't.
So far the PSP 3000 is unhackable.

Hi guys,
All i want to do is download the isos, bang them onto my memory stick and play them. Can anyone offer to do this for me as ive tried several times and still cant do it (must be thick).
I have a 1001 psp (phat)
Firmware is 5.03 i think updated it about a month ago via wireless download.
Obviously i'll sort out whoever does with a little cash incentive. Mail me on [email protected] or reply to this post. Please help i'm sick of paying for shitty games that i cant take back because ive opened the wrapper.
There should be a try before you buy option.
