i am new to the PSP hacking world and i have just downgraded my mates PSP from its original state at Firmware 2.71 to 2.80 and then back down to 1.50 it is a TA-082...
what i want to know is.. should i keep the PSP at 1.5 or should i upgrade to a Custom Firmware? and if so which one? Because i would like to play iso file games on it...
any help would be greatly appreciated thanks =]
great. i try it soon, so in future ill need a pandora battery, well i best buy one in stead of keep converting mine, and im assuming most plugins should be ok now?

1.5 is nice but if you want all the bells and whistles upgrade to 3.52 m33 then goto 3.80 m33 then 3.80 m33-2... as you can see for my psp history, mine is just like yours. Everything works perfect now with the 1.50 kernel addon
Oh yea, iso's work, you may want to convert them to cso's because they're smaller. Anywho just put the iso's/cso's in the ISO folder on the root and they appear under the memory stick under games. Works like a charm, I just downloaded God of War chains of olympus demo.. works goooood
Daedelus and Picodrive workin gooood
What's the best homebrew out there in your opinions?? I just got the fruikup or whatever, the skype alternative and im gonna try it when i get home on my wifi!
WILL SOMEONE ANSWER MY QUESTION, I FEEL SO NEGLECTED, TALK TO ME PLEASE lol
Woah... thanks soo much man... your a champion...Quote:

and if all i simply want to do with it is play the iso/cso's just to be safe shud i stick with 1.5??
as far as i know the cso's are compressed iso's?? am i right?? will they run slower then the iso's and will they lose quality??
thanks again ;)

you can use the streaming internet radio player now under the webbrowser menu, there's some other cool things u can do but i dont know all of them.. just more cool menu stuff and features, if anybody wants to list them please feel free
csos are compressed isos yes, they dont run slow for me, i converted them so they dont take up a lot of space on my memsticks (i got 2 4gb's hehe) they work fine, god of war froze one me only once outta the 2329832 times i played the demo
i think u need custom firmware to run iso's/cso's direct from the memstick
okay you've conned me into getting a Custom Firmware lol... do i have to do it in the order that u said?? like go to '3.53 m33' > '3.80 m33' > '3.80 m33-2' or can i just go straight to the last one??Quote:

go in my order > PSP PHAT 2.81 TA-082 > DOWNGRADE to 1.5 > UPGRADE to 3.52 M33then 3.52 M33-4 Then 3.80 M33 > 3.80 M33-2 > then add the 1.5 kernel
1.5 kernel allow you to play homebrew that requires 1.5. You know when you download homebrew and it has two folders? one with the name and one with the name and a % at the end example
SNES9x
SNES9X%
homebrew that uses 1.5 kernel is mostly older stuff
the only 1.5 stuff i have is
daedelus - n64 emu
picodrive - genesis emu
pspPDA - hence the name
bookR - text/pdf reader
yea u can delete all that crap
@ carlotta. i had the same code too,used chilly willy etc. in the end i went back 1.5 them via 3.52m33-4 to 3.80m33 (then used the network update to get to 3.80m33-2, amazing!) not overly impressed with the radio (prefer pspradio), but the update over network is sooo cool:D ny idea if this fw can have waves added like 3.71? superficial i know, but hey!....
edit-waves working,gameboot and 0-12 backgrounds tested too. working fine
How do i update my psp 3.52 m33 to the offical
3.80 m33? :(
I love the internet radio feature man it's aweosme.
