    Firstly what firmware are you running now.

    Is your psp fat or slim

    And do you know anyone with a psp running custom firmware now.

    Your best bet is to use pandora but i need the answers to above so you dont get the wrong info.

    If it's official Sony firmware 3.80, you can only downgrade via Pandora's battery. To do that, you need another PSP that can run homebrew. You could trying buying recovery batteries online though...

    No it is not a load of hassles, it is simple if you can follow instructions.

    Info on what pandoras battery is.

    ?

    There is no software you can 'just download' (what's with your english btw?).
    You require either a standard PSP battery that has been converted or a Datel 'Tool' battery, AND a memory stick that has been properly set up (There are programs for PC that create it for you very easily).

    Be thankful that some clever hackers (Team C&D) found out how to make use of the pandora's (service mode) battery or you wouldn't be able to install a custom firmware at all. They spent a WHOLE LOT longer developing the method than it will take you to take advantage of their efforts.

    If your PSP is running the official sony firmware 3.72 then you need to install a custom (unofficial) firmware using the pandora's battery method (explained a little in the link in my previous post) before you can run any sort of homebrew. You cannot just run an 'update' on the PSP to install it.

    If you are already running a custom (m33) firmware, then you do not need to update to 3.80 m33 to use mapthis. You can however update from an earlier custom firmware to 3.80 m33 pretty easily if you wanted to.

    There are many guides on how to do it, just do a search.
