No one here frowns on 360 piracy any more than they do on PSP piracy. The majority of PSP owners here don't pirate PSP games. The ones that do pirate PSP games would probably do the same with 360 games if it weren't so much more complicated.

Hell no. You better start downloading some PSP games by the end of the night or else you and I are going to have a chat.

I have a datel battery. I downloaded the firmwares, used Grader to put DC on my memory stick. Then I take out the regular battery, hold down L and then pop in the pandora battery. apparently a menu is supposed to come up but nothing happens. The light is just green on the side and fucking sits there. I've waited like 5 minutes

PSP Grader does NOT work with Datel batteries despite what those people say. You have to go the long route

Enl · « **Reply #25 on:** April 04, 2008, 12:16:37 AM »

Sounds like the exact same problem I had yesterday when I was hacking my PSP. After hitting square a couple of time on the blank screen I finally got it working but there was still issues. It turns out the Datel battery I had was a 1200 and not 1800 which is what's compatable.

The CFW came out a bit buggy so instead I went out and bought a Sony 2200 battery and just redo the whole thing. I also followed a different set of instructions from a link Demi posted a while back:

http://forums.exophase.com/showthread.php?t=3780

After following these step by step everything came out perfectly. I can now run emus, iso's and with the help of the Time Machine I can boot up in 1.50. The only thing I still haven't figured out yet is the PSX games.

MCD · « **Reply #26 on:** April 04, 2008, 12:20:34 AM »

download either one to convert from iso to eboot.

you can also do other shit like compress, join, customize...etc...if you want a simple converter, grab this:

also: http://www.imgburn.com/ for making iso.

edit: added another program.

check the recovery menu (boot while holding R) there is an option there for updating via darkalex firmware/whatever.

it should be on by default, after that go and update normally.

Enl · « **Reply #31 on:** April 04, 2008, 12:36:30 AM »

Just download the files straight from Dark Alex's site.

http://www.dark-alex.org/

Though if you are having the same problems as I did you probably won't be able to upgrade.

I don't remember the exact error message I got but I tried even doing the gradual update from 3.71 to 3.80 and it still wouldn't work. After screwing around with it long enough I just caved in and got a compatable battery and followed the instructions I posted above. Those directions got me a 3.80 M33 CFW and I was able to install the other updates after that.

How far did you get? Because I downloaded the 3.9 files and it's downloading the entire update right now and installing.

By the way McDragon, I tried out the files you suggested and now I have Alundra working on my PSP flawlessly. Thanks!

Go to the recovery menu. The should be an option in the first submenu about what kernel your game directory/folder is run under. Check that and report back.
