Alright!!! I picked a piano black PSP slim and lite at Target today. I also bought a $19 three year warranty along with it. I only have Bleach Heat of the Soul 3 for it, but that game is pretty badass. I also figured out how to put videos on it thanks to some people from the forums here too. Hopefully this little piece of technology will ensure I never get bored again! God I love this thing. I really like the Nintendo DS, but this thing is nothing short of awesome.

Anyhow, I got some HORI screen protectors coming in to protect that sexy, but all too smugeable screen of the PSP. I'm wondering though in the meantime what should I use to clean off the screen. I figure some rubbing alcohol and a paper towel ought to do it pretty well not only for the screen but the whole system.

Hey I have a question about PSP multiplayer. Lets say two people have a PSP and are in a place that has a wireless network. Do they both need copies of the same game to play it together or will just one copy suffice like with DS multiplayer? Also, is there a way to lock the keys while you are listening to music? I'd love to use it as an mp3 player, but I can't have it changing songs or fast forwarding while it's in my pocket!!

multiplayer: it depends on the game. if the game supports "game sharing" then yes.
lock: slide the power button down.

[Zero Cool]

Just interested guys, if I was gonna make a flash game for the PSP, would anyone here be willing to test it? as my PSP's mobo has failed :(

all you need is a cable cord to the PC and a PSP with firmware 2.70 or above :)

It'll keep you occupied for a while...but not for a long time unfortunately. I've had mine since it was originally released in Japan, and it's spent the best part of a year in a cupboard doing nothing until Ace Combat X and M.A.C.H. came a long. Even the GTA games don't keep me entertained (VCS annoyed me silly with the territory thing).

It's an amazing piece of hardware, but Sony seems to refuse to give it any sort of real software/game support and is focusing on the PS3. I don't even see why they redesigned it when it was so good in the first place, and there's no where near enough good games to warrant it.

First impressions, you both need discs if it doesn't support the single disc multiplay.

Experimentation proves that you just take the UMD out of one psp and give it to the next person, works great.

It's a fat PSP and it's standard sony 3.71 at the moment.
Why you ask?

Doesn't worry me as long as it doesn't brick my PSP.:D

[Random Murderer]

try this firmware (http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1290)

Does this hack update the official Sony 3.71 firmware or does it update M33 custom 3.71 firmware?

I believe it updates any firmware to 3.71 M33-2

[Widjaja]

No it doesn't.
It only updates the 3.71 M33 to get rid of some bugs it had.

[Random Murderer]

3.71 M33 (http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1277)
1.50 Kernel for 3.71 M33 (http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1288)
3.71 M33-2 (http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1290)
Updated 1.50 Kernel for 3.71 M33 (http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1291)
That should keep you busy for a while... ;)

[Widjaja]

It won't let me update since I'm already on 3.71 official firmware.
I'll have to wait until the next firmware comes out.

Or. . . .

I could walk around town and see if I can connect to a wireless connection.
I'll give it a shot tomorrow.

or you could downgrade to 1.50 then re-upgrade to any of the custom firmwares...

[Darknova]

Yeah, but then he has to upgrade to M33 3.60 FIRST. M33 3.71 is upgrade only. I found that out a few weeks ago when I upgraded to it.

Try this to downgrade downgrader (http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1215) Just remember that you need the official firmware updates to use it, but PSP-Hacks has them all archived in the downloads section :)

Open the UMD tray, and if you look at the top left corner there should be some number or letters, now look them up on google and it should tell you what mobo you have. If there are none then you have one of the original mobos which has the 1.5 bootstrap and is capable of all homebrew and downgrading it 1.5 :)

new faceplate, w00t!

[Widjaja]

If anyone sees these aftermarket faceplates around, don't get them.
They are of very poor quality.
Soft easily scratchable plastic, provided cleaning cloth scratches faceplate, when fixed to the PSP, the plastic holds down the L1, R1 buttons until the face plate has been filed down 2-3mm, other buttons feel like they are nearly pressed down, provided buttons jam against the faceplate.

Furry talismoon faceplate versions always get fur under the faceplate no matter what you do to avoid it.

Do you have a pic or link of your faceplate?

I don't think I can get one of those over here.:(
I bought a new genuine Sony faceplate as you can't go wrong with a faceplate which has been made by the Sony manufacturer plus the black has always looked good.

no, not camO, camY. it's a brand.
this is the one i got. (http://www.decalgirl.com/browse.cfm/4,6258.htm) at $9.99, you can't go wrong :D it comes with matching buttons, a screwdriver, and a screen protector.

[Widjaja]

Did you manage to keep little specks of dust from being stuck under the screen?
I had to use a vacum cleaner near the PSP with a glasses cloth to get mine virtually dust speck free.

My genuine PSP faceplate came with one of those Hori screen protectors but the instructions were all in Japanese and I ruined it.
Told me to pull off one strip before applying which I did and placed it one the screen.
Pulled of the second film strip as told which happened to be the sticky side and hello the screen protector fell off and landed on the dirty floor!

[Random Murderer]

yea, i used compressed air to get rid of those specks.

To downgrade a PSP lite, can I use the same pandora's battery and magic stick that I used to do my Phat? I bought a slim and am having trouble downgrading it. I DL'd pandora's GUI and followed the steps but have no idea why it wont do it. I used the PSP phat pandora's battery and reformatted the memstick to make the magic stick for a slim, but no luck.. Can anyone direct me to detailed info on doing this because I am not too sure if I have to create a new pandora's battery for the slim.. Also I do not understand how can I downgrade to m33 3.52 if it uses a 1.5 kernel but the lite supposedly does not accept a 1.0 or 1.5 kernel (or something like that).. Sorry for the noobish question but I am a little confused.. :respect:

The lite doesn't have the 1.5 bootstrap so no. No way at all. You have to make do with the M33 custom firmwares, which are mountains better anyway :)

There is a special M33 firmware made especially for the Slim without the 1.5 kernel :)

Just check out www.psp-hacks.com

So I tried this method but no luck...

Process #1 (Creating A Magic Memory Stick)
-------------------------------------------
1)Turn on the psp
2)Format the memory stick
3)Go into USB mode
4)Next, go here: File Details-TOTALNewbi-easyInstaller-PSP-Tools-Utilities-(on-PC) -
5)At the bottom, select download (the dowload is 135MB so be patient)
6)Extract the application to your desktop
7)Run "Start.exe"
8)Follow the instructions until you get into the installation screen
9)When there, you can select to install the universal unbricker (do this one!!!)
10)After it is done, your going to need to get 2 files. 1)registry 2)kd (i have a download link at the bottom for people without this) i didnt see a link for this files but they come included in the TOTALNewbi-easyInstaller-PSP-Tools-Utilities
11)Put both (kd & registry) on the root of your memery stick
12)Disconnect your psp and turn it off

Running pandora's battery:
--------------------------

(to do this, start the psp with both the ceated memory card and the softmodded battery. You may or may not see anything. But the MS LED and the wifi LED should glow for a second. If it does, just press X and let that run for about 5 minutes. if it doesnt, try re-creating the memory stick)
OK, your psp should turn itself off in the end. all you have to do is remove the battery and the memory stick. and then plug in the charger. Next, turn on the psp and you should have 3.71 M33 or 3.71 M33-2!!!!!

.................................................. .................................................. .......................

Dont know why it doesnt work but I got no flashing light for memstick.. I have a pandoras battery but it is not soft modded it is programed.. Could that be why I am having so much trouble? I have been trying every different method and no luck..

did you run it on a slim or an original psp?

[TSX420J]

did you run it on a slim or an original psp?

On both.. Why?

[Random Murderer]

On both.. Why?

as far as i know, pandora's battery doesn't work on slim.

It doesn't.

Just bought one of these.
http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee274/WiFry/GriffinPSPiTrip.jpg

As you can see I have circled the jack to point out what has already broke on it.:mad:
The plastic surrounding it is only supported on one side so if you accidently pull out the power connector on the right then the headphone jack, it has a higher tendency to break as there is not much give in it.

Good fun if your'e over at a mates listening to music then quietly plug in the iTrip and start playing tekken through thier stereo.:D

>.> just updated to 3.71 m33 today, and liked the ability to set cpu speed. I was just wondering, however, what speeds were safe for the psp? I had it at 333, and some smells were starting up, so I am a little concerned.

333Mhz is the native speed of the PSP's CPU so it's entirely safe. It's just that it eats battery!

I would be very concerned about those smells...

Has anyone upgraded to 3.71 m33-4

http://www.psp-hacks.com/2007/12/12/371-m33-4-released-w-multi-disc-supported-popsloader/

I want to do it but I don't know if it will fix the
system shutting down after coming out of
sleep mode when running 1.5 kernel homebrews.


I tried the 1.5 kernel update 2
but had no luck..

Hey has anyone here experimented with DOS Box for the PSP? If so does anyone know how to mount the root location of the PSP (Typically Ms0:) as a C:\ Drive??

I heard that it is a little unstable but since i havent tested it myself i cant really vouch on that one.

Hey I have a question about PSP multiplayer. Lets say two people have a PSP and are in a place that has a wireless network. Do they both need copies of the same game to play it together or will just one copy suffice like with DS multiplayer?

it depends on the game. some games have "game sharing," which allows one player to have the disc and the other person to download the necessary files from that person.
