The Hack Your PSP Mega-Thread

[bluziff]

Hi all,

Firstly thanks for posting the hacking guide at the start, this is all new to me at the moment as I havent messed with my psp since putting 3.40 oea on it.

Forget the help asking it was my issue with OSX replacing all files in the PSP directory as opposed to only updating them.

Doh!

Thanks again

Make sure you copied the 'UPDATE' folder to PSP/GAME/ folder.
If still not working , backup your memory stick files then format the memory stick and see if that works

Yup, any size mem. stick can be used.

The easiest way for you to hack your psp would be to use ChichkHEN and then update to GEN.

Use this tutorial first to get to Firmware Version 5.03:

Please do not double post when asking for help.

What's your current firmware version? XMB - Settings - System Settings - System Information

if u can put more than 1 game on a memory card and play them

Of course , just copy isos and csos to ms0:/ISO/

do i still have to run the games like i do now if i get the pandora battery and magic memory stick

If you mean use magic memory stick + pandora battery as normal ones , then yes you can use them as normal battery and stick

also can i play these games online or....?

I guess online games require PSN and PSN access is impossible unless you're on 6.20 OFW
But I guess there are some games that can be played online without PSN
Not sure about the answers of my last question , correct me if I'm wrong
