Hello friends
Thanks for your answers and good program for PSP.
Thee Programs make PSPs to a portable PDA and maybe a mini laptop.

Hey...manage to find the progs you'll need...you still need a non ta082 or a fixed ta082 psp though..try this first, cos it helped my situation..

edit:here's the 043.bin file for those who need it..hope i'm not breaking any copyright laws...if i am...mods please remove it...thanks.

You rule. Thank you so much! I was trying to figure out why USB wasn't working right after I downgraded. I noticed Windows just seen "Mass Storage Device" and not "PSP Type A".

Great program deniska, nice work.
I have a suggestion for the later release. That is if it’s possible. I think it would be great if when you start MapThis in PSP and it will automatically start to looking for satellite and start to lock on to them, but don’t link the coordinates to the map until we turn on the GPS mode, and keep the satellite locked in the background when we switch back to Mapview mode, so that when we switch back to GPS mode we can get a instant lock on our location, so we don’t have to wait for it to get a lock on every time we switch to GPS mode. I think everyone will be very happy to see the feature. So do your best and keep up the great work.. Thanks for all the hard work you have done.:thumbup:

As far as I understand, that is what every GPS will do.
As soon as you power on the GPS it will just start looking for satelltes and lock position.
Switching to GPS mode is just like connecting the program with the GPS.
Switching to map mode is just like disconnecting the GPS from the program.
The GPS is still doing its own thing in the background whether it is in map mode or GPS mode, until power to the GPS is switched off.

I know every GPS unit on the market has that automatic looking for and lock on to the satellite once it’s powered on. But I’m talking about the GPS-290 for the PSP and current MapThis 0.498 doesn’t have this function yet! If you have used it, then you will know every time you switch from GPS mode to MapView mode and back to GPS mode it will lose your location and have to start looking for satellite and get a lock on all over again. I was suggesting that when ever we switch from GPS mode back to MapView Mode it will still tracking our location in the background. That way we don’t have to wait for the lock on to the satellite every time we switch back and forth from one mode to another. And when we just started the MapThis the program start in MapView mode, it would be great if it can start looking for satellite and locking on to then in the background in this mode so that when to switch to GPS mode it will take a lot less time to get a lock on on our location. Hopefully everyone can understand what I’m talking about, and like my suggestion.
