Unbrick/Downgrade/Install CF on your PSP with Pandora Unbricker

[dablakmark8]

Very well tutorial,When i heard about this on another forum ithought it was fake,but when i saw the link to noobz,i knew it was not,I heard months ago that there was such a program running around(skeptical..i was)

Nice tutorial,Its gonna be hard to explain to some one over the phone.
The only problem that i have with the pandora is that your psp will never be the same again.Lost files and all.
I wonder if a fix will come along by upgrading to higher firmware then downgrading and up again.

Another problem i have but i dont think its got to do with the pandora is that in vista business i get a blue screen when i connect the psp,s.i checked the admin faults and solution but it gives me code,actually memory site codes.
I will check with my psp to see if it does it.

:)IT FREAKING WORKED!
i downgraded a 3.50 fw to 1.5!!!!!!!!!!:) with no lumines umd. ironically i am now playing a cso of lumines.
i don't know if it is clear to everyone else, but i ended up having to copy Both "installers" on psp root for it to finally work with the commands.

Good luck!

so basically you did brick in purpose your 3.50 fw PSP and then run this unbricker?

by the way, is there any chance to brick the "2nd PSP" that we need to create that magic battery and memory stick??

I know for this guide you used 2 PSP's. But for someone paranoid like me - could I follow all these steps just to have a spare "pandora" battery and mem stick laying around, just in case. For example, I have one PSP with custom FW that is working fine. Can I just use an extra mem stick and battery I have then I use this tutorial to "convert them" in case I ever brick?

Thanks for the nice write-up :mrgreenthumbsup:

I used a different TUT. And got it to work in 10 minutes.

no i did not brick it. i just inserted the battery and memory stick on a fully functional 3.50 psp
