Here is my "The greatest PSP theme in the world" Theme

i agree that is the best theme i have ever seen.

I made it myself using some Futurama desktop icons i found on the web

I've finally got my hands on a 4 gig stick (been using 32mb ever since launch ). So how would I go about going to custom firmware? I'm on 3.03 right now, and have downgraded to 1.5 for a couple of times . what is the best CF to run PSP isos and PS1 games on?

 

oh and is 4gigs supported on 1.5 FW?

[matt11504]

in my opinion 3.03 oe-c is the best

[gamerzworld]

I now have a Slim PSP! I got the last one in my town I think....Gamestop sold out so I had to goto Wal Mart and I got the last one. The packaging sucks though, you have to cut around a plastic holder to get to the PSP. I thought it was a cardboard display when I first held it, it felt like there was nothing inside it. The battery kinda makes it a bit heaver, but not by much. Game load a bit faster and it's a bit brighter. I haven't got a chance to test out the TV out yet, I forgot to get the cord. The only things it needs is an exploit and custom firmware.

 

I now have:

2 Fat PSPs

1 Slim PSP

Make sure you don't update the firmware then

[matthew1g]

Just got my 4 gig stick, went successfully to 3.03OE-C, installed custom theme and icons, and playing Rollcage right now , How do you take pics of the XMB?

[matt11504]

use Adepsp's screen video capture or SVC for short.

[Vic Campo]

psp + vcs + custom firmware = teh roczorz

[unopescio]

Ever since Ive been able to play my ps1 games on my psp, I haven't played any official psp games. I'm getting back into abe's oddysee, tomb raider and destruction derby

Last I heard, yes.

Doesn't make sense to have 1/5 hardware topics pinned without the others, doesn't make sense to have 5 hardware topics pinned. there is an index topic with links to all the hardware topics.

 

should make things a little neater.

 

 

other another note: damn the psp batter lasts a long time when you are just listening to music. i got close to 11 hours out of it

[Freakorama]

Yay I made a reveiw of a PSP game and a good one to! (The game not the reveiw)

hey i dont post much in the lounge... but i need help deciding something. i bought a new battery today so when i get slim i can run cfw on it. but should i use my waranty after making a pandora battery, brick my psp on purpose and tell bestbuy it doesnt work. my problem is they still sell the old psp's for 219 (entertainment pack) while the slim is 199 and i want the slim although they would be making money. should i wait for only slim to be on shelves or should i ask them for a slim instead.

[cold fusion 33]

Nice one Futurama freak! i liked the review a lot and i'd forgotten how good 76' was i'll have to play on it again which is a good thing as my LCS disk fell apart today

as for the slim psp, its not like the psp is uber bulky to begin with, but there may be slim psp-only features coming in future psp firmware updates, so it might be worth it. i see no point in upgrading unless you have a need to have the absolutley latest tech.

[MyMothersMySister]

Need help.

 

PSP turns on fine and the green power button is there no problems yet the screen stays black and unresponsive. Anyone know wtf is going on? It was fine when switched off about a week ago. It's never had the firmware backdated or anything of that nature at all.

 

Any help will be greatly recieved. Thanks.

well i know theres something like it. because there is custom firmware on the slim psp already. so if someone could help me out... advice on what to do. tell bestbuy they can get me the slim or wait until fat psp is off shelves.

[Vic Campo]

MyMothersMySister - sounds like it's bricked

[Ja750]

that sounds like a serious case of brickage.

 

if its not bricked, the screen might be turned off, just hold the little screen brightness button, and see if it comes on. if not, since sony will only call you a hacker and hang up, you will need someone with a modded PSP to make a pandora's battery to unbrick it.

[WellsMcK]

PLEASE HELP ME ADVICE WOULD BE HELPFUL! I want the new psp slim. First im gonna make the battery so i can put custom firmware on my slim if i get one. I have one chance left on my warranty i think. So i need to know if i can brick my current psp and return it for a slim or should i wait for the current psp to leave the shelves(i thought they werent in production anymore).

[Banana]

i finally got 3.52 M33 and im hacking yes. And i got a sweet ass xmb

@mmms Psp unbricking service

[matthew1g]

Anyone know where i can find the official 3.52 firmware? I've been wanting to upgrade from 3.03OC-E myself, but can't find the real firmware.

 

Also, does having a custom 3.03OE-C XMB theme mess up the M33 installation?

No, it will just overwright it and give you the old classic XMB

[Seddo]

Went around my mates yesterday and he pissed around with my PSP and now i have a custom firmware, 3.40 OE-A. I don't know how he done it though becuase he alls these programs on his PC and kep connecting my PSP via the USB port, but it feels good playing Mario on a Sony Console.

 

Also i can now play UMD's without having them in the UMD slot, it's just plays them from memory card. I'll have to invest in a 4GB memory card or something now so i can fit more sh*t on it.

4gig memory crads are great!
