Installing DCv5 to your PSP
Files to download before starting the guide:
DCV5
1.50 UPDATE
3.40 UPDATE
3.90 UPDATE
CONFIG.TXT
Hellcat's Pandora Installer
1.50 Kernel addon for 3.90 (ONLY FOR PHAT PSP, NOT SLIMS) (OPTIONAL)

Equipment Needed:
PSP with custom firmware 2.xx or 3.xx
A USB cable that connects your PSP to the computer
An official SONY battery or DATEL tool battery- Fake batterys do not work
A sony PSP charger to change your battery back to normal

Tutorial

The new unbricker by Dark Alex is made in a time machine format so instead of making the DCv5 stick like DCv3 or 4 with the MSIPL.BIN it has its on ipl called IPL.BIN made in the TM folder, so you have to install it slightly differently. (You need CFW to do this.) This will UPDATE/UNBRICK your PSP to 3.90 M33-3 :twothumbs:

1.Download all files listed above and leave on desktop for easy access.

2. Copy the 1.50 update to the root of your memory stick and name it UPDATE.PBP Copy pan3xx to the game folder then disconnect the USB. Launch Hellcat's Pandora Installer from the memory stick. Once launched you will get a menu that looks like this:

Format the stick by pressing R+X then L+R+X. This will delete all your data on the memory stick so make sure you have backed up everything!!!!

3.Reboot the PSP and manually, make a PSP folder in the root and a game folder inside and copy DCv5 inside. Go back to the root of the memory stick insert each PBP file corresponding to their firmware number E.G. 3.90= 390.PBP also make sure that you still have the UPDATE.PBP at the root.

4. Go to the game icon on the XMB and launch DCv5. Once launch it will say press cross to install. Press cross to install and it will start building up your memory stick. When it finishes it will boot back onto the xmb.

Each PBP file is important for the installation:
1.50- Basic Building blocks of pandora
3.40- Enables slim PSP's to see instalation (NO more blind installation!!!)
3.90 Used for the unbricker and M33 PRx's

5. Once this is done you should have on the root the PBP files and a TM folder. Go in to the TM folder and you will see DCv5 folder and maybe a config.txt (Config doesn’t have to be there after dcv5 installer has finished) Copy Config.txt into the TM folder and overwrite the previous file if you are asked, this means that DCv5 will boot up with out any buttons. To edit this go into config.txt and change the nothing to a button such as “L” “R” “CROSS”. (NOTHING means that it will load up without any buttons being pressed)



LINK: http://www.uploadpics.in/files/7ts4dh759gbgm5hb4asn.jpg

Examples:

NOTHING = "/TM/DC5/ipl.bin"; -- will boot up with no buttons pressed
L = "/TM/DC5/ipl.bin"; -- hold L to boot up DCv5

SKIP THIS STEP IF YOU HAVE A PANDORA BATTERY OR DATEL TOOL BATTERY

6.Once you have done this copy pan3xx again into the game folder and launch from the xmb. Press R+O to store your PSP battery serial and the O to change it into a jigkick battery. (Newer PSP's do not allow writing to PSP batterys so for this step you may have to use a friends PSP) Some slim batterys are not compaterble with PAN3XX make sure if you use a slim battery it is at your own risk!



LINK: http://www.uploadpics.in/files/9409fuqe6jbsh0l57mx5.jpg

7.Once you have done this, you have a memory stick with DCv5 and a jigkick battery.

HOW TO USE
Put the memory stick into the PSP for unbricking or CFW and then put in the jigkick battery. (Make sure if you assigned a button for DCv5 that, you are holding onto it when you put in the jigkick battery) The PSP should boot and show some options. From there, it is self explanatory X to install 3.90 M33-3 or O just for 3.90 OFW. MAKE SURE YOUR BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED BEFORE UNBRICKING

Change your PSP battery back to normal
Put the PSP charger into the PSP and turn on the PSP, then insert your battery launch pan3xx for the game icon and press R+[] to restore your serial number this means that you battery will go back to normal. (If you forgot to back-up your PSP battery serial don’t wet your self press [] to restore a fake serial but this may have some side effects such has battery charge levels shown incorrectly.

Theories
Because Dark Alex has made DCv5 in a different way, I believe that it is even more possible to launch two version of DC such has 3 and 5 from the same memory stick. I am not so sure about this but anyone who has done this can perhaps leave a comment.

Thanks I hope this guide helps you.

Please leave a feedback about the guide!

installation is basically the same as past installation (we have loads of DC tuts here) accept for the new ipl and loader.

i mean its good but not really nessesary.

BTW have you heard of cropping or resizing pictures :)

I was in a rush when i made this so i had no time to crop :blush: I know the installations is bacically the same but the other TUT dont emphasis that MSIPL.bin doesn't have to be at the root of the memory stick, also dark alex doesnt mension that you hold the digital up key when using DCv5

It only asks you for a key if you have timemachine installed if you dont it will just install by its self without asking for a button, thats why i made config.txt has a solution to people who want DCv5 to autoboot.

True True. BTW I tried to get DCv4 to work with DCv5 with no luck. I installed it the same way as DCv5 by putting the Kd and Registry folders in DV4 folder by then I just copied over the IPL from DCv5 and put L = "ms0:/TM/DC4/ipl.bin": (Something Like That). But when I booted it up it still booted to DCv5. I guess you would just need a custom IPL for each version.

Thats cool then your proberbly right because if you think about it the IPL holds the PSP boot and installation details.

Thanks for testing that out though!!

Its a good tutorial for a beginner but demonchild should be updating his. Anyway UPMS is the best way to go anyway.
