pandora????

[lampsta]

Ok so i figured out that I need to downgrade to be able to update to CFW. I kno that their isnt a downgrader for my firmware ver. (2.82) so I thought id ask about the pandora,can i downgrade without having a homebrewable psp? well if anyone can help me out with this question and diret me to a guide it would be greatly appreciate!

oh I have a fat psp if that helps!
thx again!:thumbup:

you need a homebrew compat psp to change the battery and the mem stick unless you buy from ebay or get the datel tool battery you could also hard mod your battery (but not advisable) and you would need a spare battery to do it.

Tutorial for pandora mem stick is here www.noobz.eu/joomla/news/unbricker-for-all-firmwares.html

ehmmm...

you can also try looking for an unpatched GTA LCS umd (the one that comes with update 2.00, not 2.60 and no greatest hits) to use 3.03 downgrader (just update to 3.03 and use it)

or 3.50 downgrader for wich you'll need a Lumines 1 umd

both games are very unlikely to be found but If you have either of them you're very lucky

This is your best bet by miles. although if you get a pandora then you can pretty much customise your psp as much as you want with little fear of a permanent brick :)

Lumines isn't that hard to come by, though it is a bit overpriced on Amazon. For what it's worth, it's a pretty fun puzzle game, so I'd recommend picking it up and using the 3.5 exploit. Just make sure you're not getting the "greatest hits" version. In fact, here's an original one for $30 +s/h:

And yeah, if you have a spare battery, I highly recommend having an extra pandora around just in case you brick your psp.
