greg | June 6, 2009
Booyaka! Just what you’ve been waiting for… No, it’s not the next M33 CFW — it’s Custom Firmware 5.03GEN-A for Team Typhoon’s ChickHEN. It offers all the benefits of 5.02GEN-A, plus the following –
- PSP-3000 and PSP-2000 v3 Support
- PSOne Game Support
- ISO/UMD Backup Support
- GEN VSH MENU
- Recovery in VSH available (some bugs remain – see the README)
- Access to PSN
How to install 5.03GEN-A:
- Connect your PSP to the computer via USB when you have loaded ChickHEN R2
- Unzip 5.03GEN-A
- Double click on “LAUNCH-ME.exe” (GUI)
- PSP Model: depending on your PSP, choose the option PSP-2000 or PSP-3000
- Mode: Choose option FULL
- PSP Install: Choose option YES
- Push START
- The files are copied on your PSP
- Disconnect the PSP from USB
- Launch the main EBOOT.PBP using ChickHEN R2 (only R2! NOT R1!).
- When the app loads, press L or R to flash the firmware in your flash. YOU ONLY NEED MAKE IT ONE TIME!

“First-Guy” got pwened!
hey guys i have a psp 3000 with firmware 4.21 i think it is, or maybe 4.20, not sure.
will this be able to go onto it?
i’ve been searching for a while for some cusotn firmware and i hope this will work!
thanks
bro have you search for the 4.21 firmware? thats the version of my psp3k too
Upgrade to ofw 5.03 ,run ChickHEN R2 and then you will be able to run the GEN-A
I have updated firmware 5.51. It wont let me change the firmware im using. Is there anyway around this problem? like anyway to reformat?
anyone get this to work on 5.51 yet???
…
If you’re using a custom firmware why in the hell are you talking about 5.51 which is an official firmware release?
Don’t you understand what’s the deal here…?
You installed a CUSTOMIZED firmware… so if you change/upgrade it, then boooom, the hack is gone…
DAMN!
Go to google and translate from portuguese to your language: “EU SOU UM BURRO DE MERDA”
ahhh perfect my friends been waiting for this for awhile now he can play monster hunter with us haha.
well goody for 3000 users :-]
Same here! My 1st PSP, finally hacked! How many are noobs like me?
actually, i have a psp 3004 with 2.4 firmware does it work on my psp, can i do this hack ??
my screen gos blank then shuts off after the installation.. im runing a psp 2000v3
that happens to me 2
hm..i tryed to reformat mem stick, res. to default settings, tryed to reinstall the chicken and all that.. but still no luck. let me know if you figure it out. bummer ;(
“THIS IS FOR PSP3000s ONLY, DO NOT USE THIS FOR PSP2000s AS IT STILL HAS BUGS AND CAN RUIN THE PSP2000..” looks like it isnt supposed to work in 2000
•PSP-3000 and PSP-2000 v3 Support
it supports psp 2000 too, you fail
The FIX!
what i did to fix my psp2k ta 088v3
1. Format ur PSP Memory Stick using the PSP itself whilst on OFW
2. RESET the psp to factorymode
3. Download an Official ChickHEN R2 Package made by Davee and davee’s chickhen only not any modded packs or what ever
4. This step may take a lil while but try too run the HEN in any way u want just dont use the Modded Ones
5. Put the m33 CFWEnabler v1.0 on the Memory stick dont try the newer versions just try v1.0 Flash it too ur Flash0
5. Get the 2.10 Version Flash it too ur flash0
6. And last but not at least Flash the 2.51 version on the PSP’s Flash0
try this
thx. i was about to commit suicide xD
let me know if u get it to work, im still having problems when doing all that.
i done what you done (h20) i had the same problem but i only got to step 5.when i cheked my system info i got version 5.00m33, can i use it like normal m33 with iso games and psp games….. or do i need to installm33 CFWEnabler 2.10…and 2.51?
wow psp3000 support go Gen-A
Nothing for the 1001?
You need smacked sooooooo damn hard
Use REAL CFW!
JESUS!
LMFAO
i agree!lol!
Omg, really…
wow I thought DAX was gonna kill it first but it looks like I was wrong about time for 3000 users.
Okay, help me out here guys, this is just like CFWEnabler in that, once I hard boot the system, it goes back to normal, and is not permanent, so that when an M33 is finally released, I can install that, right?
yes ofcourse you don’t have to worry… if team m33 lauch CFW obviously that would be 5.50m33
Cool, thanks, I hope this works better with CWCheat that CFWE251.
I though Dax said there were going to be no more M33 releases on his site.
Oops were not*
argh tired I did type it right the first time lol
Yes but, you CANNOT EVER instal m33, unless the Pre-ipl is solved
the launch me thing doesnt do anything. can anyone help me?
apparently this is just a custom firmware enabler, so after shuting down your psp it will comeback to original firmware, perfect for those TA83v3 & 3000 users.
Download:
ChickHEN R2
Custom Firmware 5.03GEN-A for ChickHEN R2
It has both here… “enabler” and customized firmware
What about updates to the PSP 1000?
…
I hate you people…
wow…
dude if your really that big of a n00b then go to a forum before crowding the comment boards
………….Are you really that god damn stupid moron if you have a PSP 1000 just use normal CFW nub. yeah being that dumb your not even noob status your a disgrace to noobs hence your a damn nub.
Does this enabler flash anything on the PSP-3000? I don’t want to wreck mine.
It does but, read the readme. It says that if you rename (dont delete since you cant flash anymore if you delete this) flasher.prx, you cant flash ANYTHING from/to your PSP meaning you’re safe. Dont even try to add a flashable theme to this. If you mess with vshmain then your psp might get a UNREPAIRABLE SUPER ~!@#$%^&*S!#$%^&* BRICK AND YOUR MOM WILL DO SOMETHING TO YOU.
have fun
lol =]
Can you delete the files that were flashed?
I mean let’s say i don’t want to use gen anymore, can i delete the flashed files that were used by gen from flash0?
Don’t delete ANYTHING from the flash0. There is no pandora for the psp 2000v3 and psp 3000. Doing anything with the flash0 is very dangerous and can make your PSP well….It will be the same as a stone brick, but worth 200 dollars.
i assume we need to figure a way to make 3000’s to be flashed by pandora for the safe way heh
Yes, but even if the 3000/v3 would boot a pandora, no matter how we flashed the OFW, it would brick thanks to the new pre ipl.Now the only way i could think of getting past that is if we could mess with the motherboard and the pre ipl itself OR if we could control what files are flashed with an OFW update,or for that matter, what makes OFW Updates any different from flashing
Well technically you could remove the GEN files, but only them. This is because they arent loaded with the ipl
Hi there. I´m buying a psp3000 tomorrow. Does this allows me to run iso from memory card? Or is it better to buy a psp 2000 instead? thanks for helping!
Buy a 3000 since the 2000 will probably be v3. With the 3000 you have a better screen(excluding scan lines) and a microphone. And some other things. Download the 5.03 update on your computer so you don’t accidently update to 5.50 making it impossible to hack your PSP 3000 anymore. Be carefull and read every guide possible until you fully understand. In the past all these things could be restored but this is PERMANENT if you do something wrong.
It’s sad to think that every 10 minutes a PSP dies because someone didn’t read the RAEDME =(
But if thats true there would be no psp’s left in the world :o
v3 2000s are only ones that are bundled with software. If you get just the core unit of the 2000 it’s not a v3 mobo! My friend bought the core system package just last month two of them actually and both were still V2.
Actually thats not true. I just bought a 2000 core system a few weeks ago and it had the unhackable motherboard on it. Think your friend just got lucky.
not true i got the psp core last Christmas and it was a v3 mobo.
I would go for the PSP2000, that works in all cases with pandora etc.
Nice work though, I still don’t think, this will be final as far as DaXs CFW. Thats still the best for all (us who can use it ;)). And yes, still glad I’ve got an PSP1000 :P
The PSP 2000 Ta88v3 doesn’t work with Pandora. All the PSP slims being made now have that motherboard so this is the only way to hack it. The PSP 3000 also has that protection.
Core 2000s are still v2 they aren’t making 2000s anymore so any that are bundled with software have a V3 mobo and the ones that don’t come with anything are older models.
Incorrect. I bought a 2000 core last week and it was a v3. No bundles and it was still unhackable. Yes, you can buy a 2000v3 as part of the core system.
Actually i think you’ll find that they stopped making psp-2000s last year, in october i think it was.
FUCK YEAH! YOU GUYS ARE THE SHIT!
gagong ulul.putang ina mo!
Wow this is almost as good as devhook was!!!
a psp defintly deis like evry 5 hours like omthing along the lines ill bet
What can I do whit my psp 1000?
use pandora battery and magic stick to hack it to Custom firmware.
this is only for unhackable psp 2000 and 3000
Dude stop asking about your dang PSP 1000…you “CAN USE PANDORA ON YOUR PSP 1000″… go to craigslist and type PSP some guy will take your money and hack yours! do some research! my goodness! …I hate noobs!
http://www.psp-hacks.com/forums/f127/
I have CFW on my psp 1001k no problem. Go to this link and ask for help. They taught me how and you dont need pandora to do that. :)
If you venture for about 2 seconds into the forums here and look under the tutorials section, a giant thread named “The Hack Your PSP Mega-Thread” will smack you in the face and you will cry in shame for posting here without looking. Try to check out the forums next time. They hold all the answers.
Are pricks like you giving help in the forums? Fk, everyone starts somewhere, even your hypocritic ass. I say give noobs a break. thanks beermon for helping.
Best thing if you want to use a pandora battery get a used slim psp before the Ta88v3 motherboard or just get a old fat pep that you can hack any model of, use a pandora battery and use any single firmware you want that has been made and able to d/l. also no matter what ofw toy have on a fat psp you can use a pandora battery to get the ofw or cfw you would like.
Good night I have a psp 1000 with cfw 5.0m33-6 and all other homebrews work with it.It also has a pandora battery and mms in it.What benefit more i would get with a psp 3000. Thanks
PSP3000 is waaaaaaaaaaaay better u wouldnt belive the difference i saw while playing final fantasy dissidia (japanese) on my psp3000 after playing on a PSP1000 i was like OMFG!!
you would be right but i have 1000 for a few reasons and one is because it doesn’t feel like cheap plastic, the umd drive is opened by a switch (i dunno i personally like that), all out homebrew 1.5 no if’s ands or buts, and most of all is the inrared port i use for my wireless keyboard and being able to use it to control anything with infrared.
but half the Ram so some home brew only runs on slims.
psp 3000 makes umd less breakable while in psp 1000 it could destroy ur umds
all the 3000 is, is that it just got brighter screen right? and you get scan lines… ive played disgaea on a 3000 and the scan lines make it look horrible compared to my 2000. i think ill save my money and wait for the PSP Go! to get hacked and have cfw cause it must be 10 times better than 3000. itll be brighter smaller and etc..
Does anyone have information on what happens when you run the network update on a psp 3000? Currently downloads the M33-6 update but I assume this will not work?
COOL I TESTED IT> IT WORKS WOOO HOOOO
anyone having problem with the 2000v3 psp. i can run it but it crashes after hiting 0
same problem here
I think this version is ONLY for the PSP 3000.
Well this is good news in the right direction. The problem is its not PERM like the other CFWs. Has to be run everytime you hard reboot the PSP.
does the popsloader work for the psp 3000?
whats the points of this..
it still useless it cannot
read CSO/IO..5.50 still did not hack
in psp 3000..STILL Sucks
Hey i suggest to read the manual first it said it works on 5.03 OFW and if u get the higher OFW like 5.50 OFW it will not work. hayysss.
and to those people talking about their PSP 1000. I dont know if you are an idiot or totally noobs. PANDORA is in the fronline of doing CFW 2 1/2 year ago and you dont know it yet? ow men your sucks!!
pandora costs money, people want software hacks, anyway i hav 1000, 3000 an best to stick to software cause one time i bought pandora, it didnt work while the software did work!
Pandora… Costs money? What money? I spent no money… I pandora’d up a battery I had on hand, I’ve hacked a ton of PSP’s with it, without spending an extra cent…
Still sucks 5.03 firmware
its already 5.50 firmware
and PSPgo is coming this October
psp3000 with 5.50firm still
cannot hack.Sony laughing 5.50
still cannot be hack..
Does it works on a PSP 3001 with 5.50 formware?
5.03 firmware only.
You learn quickly to never update your psp.
So if i have a PSP 3001 with OFW 5.03 (i got the rockband bundle) can i install Custom Firmware 5.03GEN-A for ChickHEN, independantly of the motherboard i have? because am not sure what mode i have
sorry it was *model
I’d really like to know that as well, I have a PSP 3001, but I was able to run the ChickHEN on it; It says here 3000 support… would it work on 3001?
ISO/UMD Backup Support —> does this means it can run cso/iso files to memory stick???
YES..just make a folder called “ISO” capital is important on the root of your memory stick and drag and drop the downloaded iso/cso into that run chickHEN then CFW enabler or this gen custom firmware enabler and your good to go.. simpleeeeeeee
wow!!! great job to all who made this possible…
nah i doesnt work…
I have the 2000-problem(goes black after install and then back to OFW) on my 3000.
great this is fuck
i already brick my psp 3000
this is really fuck
fuck M33
fuck pre-ipl
fuck GEN
FUCK ALL
i just want to play for god sake
fuck it..
/\

The Name Says It ALL!
So don’t go badmouth
i do it all..
but doesnt read iso files..
what i have to do to read them?
has anyone seen a bug that causes the games in the iso folder not to show periodically?
The bug is that you havent installed the M33 driver for the PSP
I did it, seems I can read iso’s, but I’ve got an error “the game could not be started. (80020321). PSP3003, 5.03 ver. How could I run iso’s?
Hit select to bring of the VHS menu, then change the UMD ISO mode to the Sony NP9660 version. That will allow you to play ISO/CSO backups from your memory stick.
THanks your, you are great.
when i try to run the installer i get the following error:
SYSTEMCTRL 1_02G.PRX MISSING
what am I is missing?
You are missing SYSTEMCTRL 1_02G.PRX
LOL!
Do you have to have the firmware 5.03? If so, I have a 3000 running on version 4.21, so how do I get 5.03?
Go to the official firmwares section of this site, download it. In the GAME folder on your memory stick, create a folder called UPDATE and put the downloaded EBOOT.PBP into it. On your psp, open the memory stick under game and it should be there, top of the list. Run. Upgrade. CFW!!!!!!!
IT worked perfect at 1st try, awesome job!!
Do you have to have the firmware 5.03? If so, I have a 3000 running on version 4.21. How do I download firmware 5.03 to my PSP?
Search Google.
Type in 5.03 Official Firmware Download.
After you downloaded it copy it to PSP/GAME directory.
Disconnect your PSP to your PC.
Go To Games and Run The Application.
Read and do what you are asked to do.
TA-da! You are running Version 5.03

Ok I need help. I didn’t know how to do this so I flashed ChickenHen without the files on my PSP, but now I can’t flash it again. What do I do?
My system settings say 5.03 ChickHen R2. Is it too late to try and flash the files? Or what should I do cause I’m lost…
Ok when I go to Installer-Loader, it says process failed, can’t load module. What do I do?
Ok I know I’ve been self helping myself to try and understand this: my system settings say 5.03 ChickHen R2 like Twig, and like Twig, my problem is that I don’t know where to put my files and it says failed to load module. Can someone honestly help me out and not just skip past this just to say they got theirs’ working?
Nvm I got this shit son! Wooooooot!

Your PSP may have rebooted and went back to OFW (it happened with mine). Look under the system settings and check the firmware version. You may need to reinstall the CFW.
can i use this firmware for my psp 2006?
DAMMNNN I bricked my psp, god help me please !!!
How do I run PSP isos? I created an ISO folder (with caps) in the root of my card, put the cso in it, but idk what to do then

I need help. I have a PSP 3001 with firmware 4.21. I’ve downloaded the eboot file many times. I copied the file to the update folder in the psp, then try to run it. I keep getting the message Corrupt Data. What should I do? Has anyone had that problem?
Im soooo glad i did not have enough $$$ to buy the new PSP 3000 bundle. Instead i got a piano black PSP core system which is TA88v2. YIPPEEEEE!!! I Have 5.00m33-6!!!
can work this ver on fat psp 1000
i cant geta ps1 emulator that works , anyone got alink for a psp 3001 5.03 gen ??? i am also looking for a gba emu , they all seem to fail..
OK… I’ve modded a few phats in the past and now I just got the PSP 3000 Rock Band Bundle (because I knew Firmware 5.01 was on it).
1. I manually upgraded to 5.02 OFW and then 5.03 OFW.
2. I copied over the ChickHEN R2 tiff image with a few random JPGs and can run it. The PSP shows System Software “5.03 ChickHEN R2″.
3. I connect the PSP to my computer on USB. Then I run the “5.03 GEN-A for HEN” LAUNCH_ME.EXE on my computer. The window pops up and I select the PSP 3000, Full, and YES then push Start. I don’t know if it matters but the “PSP Unit ID” is blank.
In a matter of seconds, all that happens is the files that look like they should have been copied to the PSP, show up in the same folder on my computer as the LAUNCH_ME.EXE. Another popup says the files were copied successfully to the PSP … which they were not.
So my question is… can I and where do I manually put the “files” folder, flasher.prx, reboot.prx, GEN.BAK, and the main EBOOT.PBP files that were created on my computer?
That is the only step holding me back.
One last thing … I keep reading there is no permanent solution for the PSP 3000. So do we have to run the ChickHEN after ever hard reset?
Thanks.
NM… I figured it out. had to manually run the 2nd psp-cfw.exe. Duh. Had to do it in a command prompt to put in the proper parameters… but I got it.
Heya….are u sure…about……the hard reset issue. and everytin reverts ..and how to solve it.. can u plse help to specify in detail… tanks man
can add me up here if u dont mine farhaan82@hotmail.com
do u already fix ur psp? i can help u..i hav psp 2001v2 and psp 3000..and i already using cso and iso downloaded games..
just put the name of the psp drive/mine was F/: just put the letter like this F or watever ur drive is on your pc
AH! New issue. Ran Go Sudoku (ISO) and it works fine. When it tries to Save the initial game settings…it says their isn’t enough room on the Memory Pro Duo. This is a 4GB that came in the bundle and was formatted by this very PSP 3000. It has like 3.5gb free.
Is there a setting to make the Memory Pro Duo visible to the games as writable media?
The UMD with OFW works fine of course. The ISO of the same game launches on 5.03 GEN-A. But the CFW doesn’t seem to read the Memory Pro Duo as writable location.
Kinda odd.
The issue seems to be related specifically to the Go Sudoku ISO. I tested a different game ISO and it saves fine. So I tried copying my Go Sudoku savegame folder from my PSP phat to the 3000 and I was able to save the games again.
So if you have any ISOs that won’t save game info after you’re on 5.03 Gen-A and you have a phat PSP you are upgrading on, just copy over the savegame folder specific to your game (example – Go Sudoku’s savegame folder is UCELxxxxxx or something similar). I found the folder by opening the png files for the XMB picture of Go Sudoku.
If you only have a PSP 3000 and are not upgrading from a PSP phat. Google is your friend.
thanks… it helps me a lot… ^_^
this is f@#$&ng cool i thought this was possible to hack in 3000
Thanks
this is awesome i never knew that it can be hacked. it only works on 3000 righ. because i goe 1!!!!

Can someone please help me? I am doing everything told to me in the instructions but when I try to load ChickHen it’s a blank screen then it freezes and shuts off, please help I have been going insane for the past 2 days trying this.

I have a psp 3000 wih firmware 5.01. Is that can be hacked by Custom Firmware 5.03 GEN-A
Hey guys. I think you shouldnt download anything from this page cause its messed up with Virus. I downloaded this (ChickenHen R2) for the PSP but it didnt work. When I turn it on It shut down it self. Please contect me and Help me. I shall be graceful to you for this favour. My e-mail adress ia (alisiddique7@hotmail.com) Thanks for reading my comment
The ChickHEN never loaded using my 4 GB mem stick. I had to use an old 256 MB stick and it works like a charm.
so there is hack for psp 3000 and 2006 but is there any for psp 3006?????
the CF id permanent?or is it lost as soon as you close the psp?Did we got access to write to flash0?
this hack can be used in psp 3004???
I did everything told here and seems to be working fine but when I try to use the installer-loader it says SYSTEMCTRL 1_02G.PRX NOT FOUND! Aborting

i kno i have ver 5.51
I have a PSP 2001 and it has a TA88v3 motherboard.
From the description of this “Custom Firmware 5.03GEN-A”, it seems like I should be able to play ISO games since it says “ISO/UMD Backup Support”
If that is the case, I can’t get it to work.
I upgraded to the original firmware to 5.03 and I was able to install and load ChickHen R2 just fine.
I followed the instructions above to install the Customer 5.03 Gen-A firmware and I was able to flash it and reboot into it successfully. My system information displays: 5.03 GEN-A (FULL)
Then I tried to load one of my ISO games. This ISO works on another hacked (fat) PSP, so no issues there.
It starts loading the PSP logo, then after a few seconds it kicks me out saying “game could not be started (80020321)”
If anyone has been able to play ISO games on their PSP 2000/1 Ta88v3, can you please tell me exactly what you did? would really appreciate it..
To answer my own question, I read someones comment above.
This is what I had to do play an ISO game on my PSP 2001 / Ta88V3:
Update firmware to 5.03 (official firmware)
Install and load ChickHENR2
CFWEnabler 3.50 (http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1734)
press select and change UMD ISO MODE to M33DRIVE
Load your game.
with this firmware, can we play games from the memory stick for psp3000 like the usual psp2000?.. please reply thanks
i really need a hack for psp 3000 5.50
when i got it, i stuipidly updated to 5.50
and anyone who makes a hack would be like god
Dear fellas how can i understand my psp software version? How can i know my psp mother board version?
Then how will i decide to install required version can solve official version restirictions?
If anyone help me i glad to him.
Thnx
hello my friend
send me ur email adress
i hope i will have free time 2 give u some help
I have a psp 2000 v2 running m335.0 if I install OFW 5.3 and then run this chickenhen stuff will it work or does it only work on V3 2000s. I am asking because I can’t access the PSN anymore and this hack allows that. So I need to know if its safe to use this on a v2 2000psp
When I try to install chicken hen r2, I have my psp on OFW 5.03 and all of it clean
I do exactly as the readme says to and it just turns the psp off… No green flashing to say that it installed, no reboot..
i did it but everytime my psp start up it goes back to 5.03 and i have to do everthing over how do i keep it hack
I have psp 3004pw
i upgrade it to OFW 5.03
I run chickenhen for 5.03
and finally i run CFW 5.03 Gen-A
from that momend the psp could read all the iso/cso games but only one of the 4 installed could be played.Everything else loads for some seconds (while in black screen) and then throws a message:
THe game could not be started 80020148.
I tried with umd mode and the other two (m33,sony np9660)but none of them solved the problem.
How can i run the other games??
johny bgood your other games might be .rar the other one might be .cso download something called wrar and you could turn them into cso problem solve
ok guys here is the deal
i have a psp 3000 version 5.51 and i need help
i was wondering (and yes im completely new to hacking a psp hell im new to it all)
can i downgrade my psp or download 5.03 pr something like tht so i can install chickHen r2 or what or what can i do
btw my email is conway.anthony47@gmail please send all answers there thanks :)
yeah same problem…like 1 out of 4 isos work on mine..i wonder what the problem is??
does it hav to do with the CFW that was tested on the iso??
cool, just about time. I was going to get a ds lite or dsi with a flash cart but thanks to and team typhoon I thought the new psp 2000s and 3000s would never be hacked, now hopefully now they have cfw gen-A that now hopefully darkALEX would come in and make a cfw m33. Should I get a 2000 or 3000 psp? I heard that the 3000’s screen had good anti glare but ghosty fast moving images
just for everyone out ther running chickhen r2 remember that everytime u run it a file called EFFHUNT.BIN is created on the memory stick
you have to delete this before you can run it again like if u turn it off etc…
have anyone experience your psp re-starts everytime you exit iso/cso game and had to re-do the 5.03GEN-A again..
I’m using PSP 3006 with 1GB SanDisk MS to obtain the 5.03GEN-A and 8GB MS to play my iso/cso games..
Thanks!!!
i all ready install this cfw but i accidentally disabled the vsh menu…how can i open it again? please help me…
can anybody give me a pspident.pbp and chickHEN R2?coz my chickHEN is only R1…Please help me.Tnx
can anybody tell me the instructions to do step by step…and what to read so i won’t brick my psp
Hey, i have a .CSO version of Coded Arms: Contagion and installed the CFW 5.03 GEN-A, i put it under the ISO folder, but i didn’t show up under game.
But before i had Megaman X (.iso) and it popped up in the game folder when i put it under ISO folder. what did i do wrong?

I have a PSP-3001 with CFW 5.03 m33, is it possible to update it to 5.51 ( the OFFICAL version not the custom one ) because when I reset my psp, I cant play my download games. I have to take out the battery to play again. T_T
hey! what if u have ofw 5.51? can i still do it?
Three simple questions: First, Is it better to run the PSone games on “Gen-A” as ISO/CSO or can you convert them to eboots with PSXtoPSP program. Would the PSone converts still run that way. Question two is, would I have any issues with Sony-site downloaded games. For example I have the official eboot download of Crash Bandicoot 3 from sony or the Brain Challenge game. And is there any issues still running your other emulators (GBA, NES, GB) with “Gen-A” Thanks.

HELP PLZ>>>
I was bored so i flashed the 5.03 gen on my PSP phat (i know thats dumb ). But anyways it did not brick my PSP. Instead it just enabled a really cool vhs menu were i can post hand folders and access recovery menu easyly. Hope dark alex and team gen could work with this. The only off thing is that my firmware version now reads ”version 5.50” with no cfw tag. And all my games and apps now say ”data can not be read. data is corrupt” when i click on them. Well dc8 mod to the rescue.
So, does this permanently install CFW into my PSP? Or do I have to do this every time I turn it off (normally) and turn it back on?
Also, does this work on all slim 2000s or just the ta-88v3? Because I’m not sure if I have the v3, but I want to be safe.
will this work without having the pandoras battery
