[Tutorial] Flash CFW To Any PSP Slim or Fat [PSP Grader v008]

[Riftwaker]

Hmm yeah would like that confirmed before I actually buy one.
What part does the battery do anyway? Downgrade to 1.5?
And memory stick upgrade to cfw?

[...BeAkEr...]

slim's do not actually downgrade to 1.5 ever

it allows an exploit which runs the IPL loader which lets you installs the custom firmware

DATEL TOOL battery=service battery=pandora battery=hardmod battery
all are the same and do the same thing, so yes it will work, keep in mind, battery must be charged typicly more than 75% to load DCv3 or DCv4.
And ya, the battery changes the boot sequence on the psp from the usual boot from internal flash to boot off memstick(DCv3 or DCv4 or Pandora(1.5)

I can't get the program PSP Grader to work. Every time I try to open it it says "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)." Could anyone help me with this?

[...BeAkEr...]

what OS are you using?


If Vista then right click and run as admin [or even better remove admin block]

[DeltaBlue]

I've got Windows XP.

[...BeAkEr...]

you have network framework 2.0 installed?

I was able to put, the custom firmware with my datel battery by using DCV3 i tried this program
but it didn't boot.

Finally bought a psp lol. Can't find a good deal for pandora/datel battery though :/ Found some guy in Finland(I live in Finland) that can install cfw for 5euro though. Yay!
