Personally, I’m sticking with 5.50 GEN… But should you wanna give this a go, then here you go — Becus25 and Xenogears’ Custom Firmware for the PSP-1000/2000: CFW 5.50 MHU. Email me when you can access the PlayStation Store and NP9660 isn’t broken. Don’t get me wrong — Xenogears, Becus25 — props. You got skills.

I recommend you pass the readme (leeme.txt) through Google Translate. Here, copy this –
