Pandora's Battery GUI Released

[burrito]

Mrdude has released a GUI (graphical user interface) for Pandora's battery. This puts all of the needed files on your memory stick, and does the required formatting automatically.
This still requires a homebrew-capable psp so that the normal battery can be turned into a Pandora battery.

lmao... one step closer.

Good luck with unbricking... perhaps try and use a different computer?

[penileartery]

well, i only use my laptop, haha but i tried with another psp and then this and i get the same damn error

[gamefreak199101]

this is kinda cool

[burrito]

It won't let me upload it to dcemu for reason... I waited 30 minutes. So now I'm trying to upload to my google site. If someone feels like uploading it to dcemu (needs to be zip because of file size restrictions), then go right ahead and I will add your link to the first post.

This is awesome! Now I'll try and un-brick my bricked PSP. Awesome for lazy people like me.

I'll gladly have one i'm tired of hacking my brothers psp and i can't afford a bran new one. He gives me limitations like i can't put on a whole bunch of apps that he doesn't know what they do. It kinda sucks. I know it's just a joke but it would be awesome if you would sell it to me.

[DarthPaul]

How did you brick it? :eek:

Remember when I bricked one of my PSPs while installing a Custom Theme? Well it stills bricked..

[tgm123]

but we still have the idstorage problem, im still left with a half brick after using pandora on my psp.

I had a working psp
Used pandora to backup my nand
downgraded to 1.5
went to restore my nand
nand file was corrupt
only 200kb was dumped from my perfectly working nand
left with no nand backup and a half bricked psp
copyd nand from another psp
everything now works apart from loading umds

i cant do a single Legal thing with my psp now, just homebrew and isos in no-umd mode

im so sad

[Buddy4point0]

very cool. im def gonna use this. nie and easy thats how i like it

Coders are currently trying to fix the idstorage with Pandora: http://lan.st/showthread.php?t=1430
So you may be able to fix your psp soon.

if you have a half brick now, i have a nandimage.flash of the 1.5 and it worked just fine in my fully bricked psp. if you want it PM me :D:D i donno if its legal to do that though. i had the nandimage on a 100% working psp that was 1.5 the 3.4OE flash didnt work on my PSP,


i also had a problem with the flash1 not flashing on there correctly the way it told me to do it.

anyways! haha the 1.5 image will go on the root of your memory stick and u will go ot the recover nand from image or some bullshit like that. haha

if you didn't already rename the dump, then do it(nandimage.flash), or use this: http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=72361

and you do NOT want to use a nand dump from a psp with a different motherboard (ta-079 to ta-086, ta-082 to ta-086, etc.). the difference between ta-082 and ta-086 is only ta-086 has the brightness problem in 1.5. Not sure what the difference is between ta-079 and ta-081)
If you do this, then the idstorage will still be messed up, causing wifi, umd, and other stuff NOT able to work.

This GUI does not resolve the "cannot open logical drive" issue. It's merely a front-end for idiots who have no idea what a Command Prompt is.

Also, It looks like it contains copyrighted files (the 150 and 352 firmwares). I don't think it's a good idea to upload the whole rar archive to the main site.

[lordnibbla]

awesome I am just about to downgrade someone's psp who's laser is broke and cant read luminies.

This helps a bunch :D
THANKS!

[specialist83]

[ACID]

Can somebody upload this file the link doesnt work. :(

[Scarface.nl]

This illigal, because there are files from sony included.

Check (maxconsole) or forum from playstation.com :)

[Kvonx]

thanks for making it easier..........awesome work

[addisj]

I am hoping someone can help...

Everything went ok turning my battery into a Pandora battery. I got the correct screen when launching Pandora's battery after copying over all the correct files and converted my battery.

I then took the mem stick out and battery and put them into a 2.81 psp. The psp auto powered on but all I get is a blank screen. :confused:

any ideas? i have reformatted the memstick and did the process all over again a few times and I always get the same result - black screen.

[razorak]

after waiting for more than an hour rapidshare tells me i can't download....blimey >.<

[LilSwish722]

I used this and now BOTH my batteries don't work. I have the MS but it just doesn't do anything. Anyone HELP PLEASE. The MS does not light up or anything. I put the battery in and it turns on. but thats it.

[Shiori]

*** Deleted ***

That wouldn't be the problem. Sorry.

A GUI is great.

Fool proof things just make better fools :P.

[LilSwish722]

yea, thanks for helpin. NOW I CAn'T DO ANYTHING!

[hacksparrow]

Isn't it great that we can now laugh about a brick? Ahhh what a wonderful thing.aye, i remember changin mobo's on bricks, it was ass

[urherenow]

LilSwish722... what exactly is going on? Have you done ANYTHING as far as flashing your PSP? (like... did you ever see the menu?) If not then you should have paid attention to the original Pandora thread. All you have to do is turn on your PSP without the battery, and use an A/C adapter, NOT a USB power cable (it won't work) and your PSP will boot up as if nothing happened. With it on, you can use the battery creator program to fix your batteries again.

Why yours doesn't boot? Dunno... haven't tried this program out because I have a perfectly working setup already, but reasons with the original software are: Fake memory stick, 32MB memory stick (32MB are not PRO Duos, just DUOs), or a 4GB+ memory stick.

now that I've helped you out, please help everyone else out and get a different sig. Nobody cares about your PSP's firmware history, especially in a forum full of people who have ALL messed with thier firmware. Your sig is nothing more than an eye sore.

[kjetil1991]

thanks! now i have a working psp im going to give it to my sis i dont need it =)

[LilSwish722]

the ms light doesn't come on when i put it into the PSP that it needs to unbrick. and about my sig, its mainly for me. don't be so rude about it.

[turnerl]

ditch the sig if its for you dont put it in everyone elses face shesh.

[xcjzerox]

this shit does not work

[pimp12]

sh>it lol

[pimp12]
