I just got a new PSP and wanted to try out custom fireware.

Can it be done on a PSP-3000? Google hasnt been any help.

I found a great deal on http://www.MemorySticksPro.com for 2gb 4gb 8gb and 16gb memory sticks.

I purchased one 2-3 days back and already received it so the deal seems sound. I am bargain hunter and I
looked all over ebay, amazon, buy.com, etc. but this was the cheapest I found so thought I’d share with
everyone as my first post on this forum ever.

Hope it helps! Give me some reps!

Looking to be a contributing member here!

DO NOT buy from Pandora Sales. I ordered the 4 gb magic memory stick, and they sent me a fake card. If you bought from them, test the Magic Gate – if the psp says “unknown” rather than “supported,” it’s FAKE!

So they said they’d exchange it. It was a big hassle because I live overseas. And they didn’t even refund my shipping to send it back.

So about two weeks after they receive the fake card, I get my new card in the mail. And it’s real!! However, all of the files on the card are corrupted – making it useless for putting CFW on my PSP. I ended up reformatting and making my own MMS via Rain’s memory stick maker. Here’s some advice – it’s much easier and a lot quicker to just do it yourself. Don’t get scammed by Pandora Sales!

Thanks alot for the simple tut, took me a while to find one. If this works i’lll donate a a small ammount to you, assuming you have PayPal =]

PANDORA SALES:

Does the battery LED lights stop blinking or does the PSP turn off after
a few seconds? If the PSP turns off then there is a problem with the
memory stick. We can help you out with either, but we need to know
which one has the problem.

RAMQUEZ:

No the LED lights don’t stop blinking, The PSP does Turn off after a few
seconds.
The Problem i have is that i put the battery in normal mode, and the
battery indicates full charge but the PSP wont power up even whitout the
memory stick. So, I think the problem is with the battery because the
PSP does read the memory stick and when I try to install the downgrade
software it gives me the ” Battery needs to be at 78% charge” error.
Also, when i go to Battery information in the PSP it only displays
External Power, and it doesn’t give out proper readings in the battery
charge, as if it had no battery at all.

Should i send back both?

PANDORA SALES:

Please send both back, we will be sure both are working when they are returned.

Thank you for your patience.

I know what you’re thinking BUT HEY its my friggin money PLUS i had to pay for the stupid delivery back to them.

Hopefully they got it right this time.

I havent received it yet, they didn’t shipped Express which is BS.

Am I going to recommend them?

Hmm. tuff one, I’m not even sure if that blue led bastard is going to work.

If it does, i might give it a positive.

If it doesn’t, I’ll hotwire the battery with enuff plutonium to nuke this bastards 3 times before they even know what hit em

AHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHa…
ahahaaaaaa…just kidding.

They did answer me quick enough, and they where never rude to me, except for the “responded 3 times” crap, Dammit! reply 10 if you must!.

But anyway, if it doesnt work, hmm, I dunno.
