Word that a new PSP Slim motherboard preventing the creation of a Pandora’s battery is among us — the TA-085 v2. That’s not to say an existing Pandora battery won’t work — it still should.
Sony has apparently blocked access to the battery’s eeprom; meaning our [existing] software methods are rendered ineffective. The workaround: use a friend’s PSP or go the hardware route.

yea dark-alex who’s the boss now
stfu
fuck you man!
Your stupid…
If you’re that much of Sony Corp fan, then WHY ARE YOU EVEN ON THIS SITE?!?!?! GTFO!
Tony Danza.
Burn!
fool, dont ever say thatt to Dark Alex, he has brought happiness and pleasure to many people. go screw urself
dude just go fuck ur self okay
what a fucking stupid comment pspavenger
pspavanger, Dark Alex is still the boss, cause the Pandora will still work, and anyone can make it using an older fat psp or by lifting the pin on an older battery. Keep your dumb comments to yourself!
Your mums the boss BiaTch
Wow someone needs to get a life…..
dark_alex is a real hero. You eat your dick.
pspavenger is gay!
Fuck you for insulting Dark AleX. Motherfucking piece of shit, you don’t fucking get what you are fucking shitting about. Get the fucking hell outta here if you want to be such a motherfucking Sony fan. You pissed us all fucking much already, and now you are going to be fucking accepting this shit you motherfucker!
back to exploits
lucky me cos i’m a phattie.
do anyone know more specific how to find out if your motherboard is a TA-085 v2??
I think my friends PSP had one, because I put in my Pandora to install 3.80 M33 on his, and it said the motherboard was TA-???.
try the pandora and telll us all if its a succes and if it doesn’t unbrick/upgrade/dowgrades then we will all know this stup motherboard is gay.
But this does not stop them (pandora’s batt) from working, only from being made, so as long as you can still make a hardware one, there is no problem, and as far as I know you don’t even need to do any soldering to make the HW mod.
just lift up a pin i made my that way it that works like a charm
HA!
Hows that suckas soon we gonaa take this all down!
and then we’re going to washington dc and take back the white house!!! lol.

Dark_AleX did NOT discovered it
Oh Sony…when will you learn. Its just like Jurassic Park, “we will find a way”.
well said mate!
Jurassic park is gay …..
But i see your point.
amen
lots of haters in here…
to true
let me tell u something u want a hack psp easy get a phat psp and u cool slim have is ligh and all that however to me the phat is better my shit had been hit more than once and it still good i beat money u leave the slim fall once and it might get fuck up
Grammar much? Yo Gramimar is teh worstest in ever in this wrldo
who cares about the grammar ? isn’t it truth ?
I care about the grammer… and the spelling for that matter.
There should be a law banning anyone with English THIS bad from accessing the internet.
then maybe you should have spelled GRAMMAR correctly, hypocrite!
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/grammar
maybe you should have checked a dictionary, tool!
roflmfao well said
well said just like FPS_Sam said lol. and fuck grammer when your online and grammer is just an illusion.
i hope you won the head buckaroo award at last years grammar rodeo
na i didn’t, but you could listen to what he said lol. Is not my fault you have a psp slim so just chill dude. Not i am no making fun of you, but you should judge people because of their gramma and i strongly believe that to read comments and inform yourself and others
no, i dropped mine about 6 times, its fine auctually.
RE-EDITED & RE-GRAMMERED lolz ^_^
“Let me tell you something, do you want to hack PSP? Easy get a FAT PSP. However, to me the FAT is better and my FAT PSP had been dropped more than once and it still good. I beat your PSP Slim, If you drop it accidentally it might get fucked up.”
This the best that i can do for this guy’s twisted grammar ^^;
NOTE: I Asian ^_^
How dumb are you that you keep on dropping your psp? Phat vs. slim and you say phat is better? lmao, once you have actually used both you can judge, don’t hate because you cannot afford!!! Anyway, don’t confuse classic with better
So this new motherboard only prevents you to softmod batterys? so if you already have a pandora battery does that mean that PSP is hackable.well lucky I have a phat and a pandora battery.
I was planning on getting a Slim so that means I can still hack it right.
no matter what comes out there will always be a hack fot it.
Go get a datel tool…then hack
Y are Dark alex nid to involve in this. They make system hack. Not this kind .
What the hell does this sentence mean?
seams like sony finally decided to put down the pot, and began fighting hackers
na i didn’t, but you could listen to what he said lol. Is not my fault you have a psp slim so just chill dude. No i am not making fun of you, but you shouldn’t judge people because of their grammar and i strongly believe that this page to read comments and inform yourself and others.
in case you didn’t get what i just wrote lol
how can we read/understand your comments, if they make no sense at all. if everyone was clear and concise with what they say, then there would be no need to poke fun at people’s grammar.
lol u right it wouldn’t be fun at all lol.
Some of you fuckers have no ability to think and comprehend what people are typing. Stop bitching and use your mind for once.
let me ask you one question to all those guys that hate dark alex. do you love to buy psp games that cost like 20 even 40 cash. Dudes if u are so depress because then just sell your psp and buy an iphone or a ipop touch they are hackable too or just keep your psp and keep buying those expensives games you all love. you all should think a little and see what we got now on a simple psp, oooo I almost forgot there is always a way.
If it wasn’t for the people spending money then no new games would come out… No?
go alex go,we can do it! team m33,uuhh fuck you SCEI
ok 1st off, you fucking retards that cant speak in sentences so we can understand you need to shut the fuck up. 2nd if it can be made, it can be broken, simple as that, thats how its always been, thats how it will always be. 3rd im gonna have to agree with ok(2 comments up) do you morons really wanna pay $40 a rip for a game that might potentially suck balls? see this way you can “test run” your games, if you like them BUY THEM. if noone buys games we wont have games to play. not to mention the purpose of custom firmware is to really unlock the “full potential” of the unit itself. sony is so up the ass about making money, you really think theyre gonna take the time and effort to make homebrew apps for the psp to do half the shit we can do with it? HELL NO, not unless theyre gonna make a buck off it. even then i dont see it happening. all you haters out there need to just shut the fuck up and think before you talk shit, cuz w/o D_A and m33 you wouldnt have dick. you think youd be using your psp as a universal remote for all your appliances(tv, dvd player, ect..)? not in a million years, or if so itd cost ya $20. you think youd be using youre psp as a remote control for your rc copter? no fucking way. so really shut the fuck up, dark alex and m33 are the best out so suck on my hairy sack. peace bitches.
ha
somebody’s upset (internet drama)
I agree, I test out all the games I buy, plus anytime someone buys me a psp game, I always rip it to cso, so I can have a bunch of games with me and dont have to bring the extra UMDs. DAX is awesome, and quite frankly if anyone doesnt think so, they shouldn’t even be here. People that constantly root for Sony to beat people like DAX, I just gotta ask; Why are you on a site called psp-hacks.com ????
*ah men*
you guys actually took your time and read that? can someone summarize the whole thing in a few words?
No.
basicly he said D-A unlocks the secret to psp and argures about why u shouldnt hate DA and why sony isnt making good homebrew for the psp unless they earn money off it..for more detail..READ IT
dunno about you but i use my tv remote for my tv. and my dvd remote for my dvd player. and my psp to play games. if it wasnt hacked i wouldnt die.
:)
and btw no this doesnt mean the new mobo is unhackable, it just means you wont be able to softmod a batt to make it a pandora with this mobo. it blocks the eeprom(file on the battery itself) from being flashed. but like i said before, if it can be made, it can be broken, just give it some time.
My nigga!
It should say “New Pandora-proof PSP Slim Motherboard Discovered…that is until DA f*cks Sony over again”
agreed.
yeah wait til DA hacks your F**kin motherboard, suck*rs
rofl! right on!
here is a fun fact…..
every PS3 sold, sony LOSES $200.
Bitchez.
Vercix, smartest comment of the thread
damn skippy
Peanut Butter?
My friend just bought a brand new silver slim psp … the phatty (non pandora) battery would not work in it. However the Pandora battery worked fine and downgraded just fine as well.
380M33-5 loaded perfectly!!
Oh, Sony, you dirtbag, you.
Alarming header, made me think we were going to have backdoor proof slims. No CFW is really bad :P
Glad to hear we can still use pandora, just not create it.
BTW, DAX had nothing to do with this discovery.
it doesn’t dude but is good to know that u just can’t make it.
-_- All they really need to do is bind a critical function to one that is necessary for the PSP to function. Then, we’d all get to wait until DA reprogrammed the PSP from scratch.
They r just adding to the pandora proof batteries.
Dax has no bueno hax, “gives us power from dark side” because you too stupid to do it yourself - idiots el nic encamte…
Well….for me its only a new project for our lord Dark Alex lol…. go DAX….
people the reason that sony has done this is because they have made something else (maybe you plug your psp into a usb socket and use some software sony has to unbrick it or something else). THOUGH DAX WILL WORK IT
wtf happened to the comments.ok. pandora isnt the only solution.think about it there will software downgraders like the gta expliot or illumatic thingy game expliot but dark alex is probably doin these firmwares cause hes pissed at Sony, people should buy psp games but the ps3 is gonner make them like the famous Sega,i do buy my psp games so doin my part but Sony don’t respect their customers,that why people ar goin for nds instead.we need to support dark alex not flame him cause this site would not exist
Ehh… No big deal.
omg!! i cant play from memorystick now when i upgrade my psp slim to 3.90.. pls help me pls!!!!
GOT TO HELL SONY YOU WANNA FIGHT? THEN FIGHT WITH ALL OF US NOT WITH DAX!!!
Wow, thank god i kept my fat psp.
It seems Ive managed to dodge more drama than the entire seasons of the OC, just by not getting a slim.
Hope DA doesnt have too much trouble getting around this, if he bothers to.
I mean he shouldn’t really care for it unless they start forcing new games to be the latest firmware. That will suck.
Hahaha…. “It seems Ive managed to dodge more drama than the entire seasons of the OC” …So true…
I’m sorry, but this means that they REVERSE ENGINEERED the battery eeprom ‘flasher’.
That is illegal and someone with guts should sue them for that.
I have a slim and all homebrew works fine.
Anyway, Sony is great for making the PSP-hardware. It’s only logical that they try to protect their investment by making it harder to play downloaded games. No problems.
But thanks to DarkAlex we can play homebrew, so DAX is great aswell.
Conclusion, Sony and DAX are great, because one without the other would be worthless.
God bless peace loving people.
Heii.. dont start fighting @ here..
Why we dont help Dark Alex to find the solve..
If you a gentleman dont just bad said @ here..
Please give him support.. we’re have same need
hey sony suckers you’re waisting your time, give up FUCKS
IRAN
iranete to toranete
ایرانت تو تورانته
sony is gonner cause neither the ps3 or psp is doing well,last time i checked ps3 was ranked under gba so DA is saving Sony
It seems like you and everyone else around here (obviously except for the “haters”) just want to be DA’s buttbuddy. That’s all your deal if you roll that way. and where did you check this out? You supply the statement but not the source of the statement.
And I bet that most that are haters/don’t like the PSP or PS3 actually own one of the other. Hypocrites.
genso is gay dont hang out with him, unless your gay.
so when’s the psp-300 going to be out? hmmm…
i mean, psp-3000
Personally I think Sony should drop all the bullshit and allow modding and hacking. Sure they might lose a few bucks on the homebrew scene, but think logically for a second. Wouldn’t they expand overall unit sales? I know for a fact that PSP is hands down the best handheld made, and we all know why. Suffice it to say, if they actually embraced this issue rather than fight against it, they could stand to make more.
A good analogy of this would be in it’s actual abilities. If you do what I do you like to research what you’re buying right? I mean, my money is limited so I can’t just run out and blow a grip on some mysterious product. By unlocking all these features they could easily call them “features” and list them on the package.
How many of us would blow a load seeing,
“All new key features: New Ability to play PSX games on your PSP, New Custom Firmwares unlocking the full potential of the PSP”
I think it would be much smarter, especially considering there’s really not a damn thing they can do to stop hacking and customizing. Where there’s a will there’s a way. It’s in our nature as humans to fuck with shit til we either break it or modify it….lol. nuff said, hopefully I’ve made my point.
You mean, the PSN store that has been up for months now, full of PSX titles that are playable on the PSP? The only thing “custom” about the DAX cfw’s are unsigned code and recovery options. If anything, they should just add recovery options modeled after DAX’s work. It’s already been said, those features would cost a pretty penny if they were to make it into production.
point read and respected
On a side note, what they’ve already done to the PSP Slim is almost unforgivable. They’ve made the analog stick one solid piece, so you can no longer buy replacements for it. This is usually a minor issue, but since the Slim’s accessories such as cases and whatnot aren’t in serious demand yet, we Slim owners have to either buy older case styles or wait it out. I WOULD have been able to purchase Naki’s Swing Case, BUT the faceplate was so thick the analog was burried rendering the PSP unplayable in it’s case, which is what it was designed for.
A minor disappointment, but one none the less.
way to go sony, keep trying to take away 1 of the reason to own a psp, if it wasnt for CFW i wouldve never even bothered to own a freakin handheld. tsk!
Sony’s
behavior sucks balls. What are they thinking of? I’m glad the new psp mobo hasen’t arrived to Norway yet ;)
DAX has given me plenty of pleasures by giving out 3.90.
Too bad that not all homebrews works on slim yet, that sucks..
I’m looking forward to time machine
