3.52, that's your firmware, no M33 after it. That means it can't run homebrew, ISOs, and namely being able to make the Pandora battery.

You will need to find someone with 1.50 or a custom firmware to make the battery and memory stick for you, then you can use it on your own PSP.

Well, you need a PSP with either 1.50, an OE firmware (EG: 3.03 OE-C or 3.10/3.30/3.40 OE-A) a WC firmware (3.40* LE) or a M33 firmware (3.51 M33 or 3.52 M33).

But, any PSP 3.50 and below can be downgraded with the use of the Lumines game. Or if under 2.71 you don't need to use a game to do it.

Though buying a new PSP kind of defeats the object of getting your 3.52 downgraded, unless you sell it again afterwards to make back the money.

Hey man here it is in a nut shell.
The psp you have has official sony firmware on it ie 3.52

You have to use a downgrader or exploit in order to get your firmware down to version 1.50.

Then you can upgrade to a custom firmware which will give you the OE and M33.

The pandora battery can only be made with a psp that has already been downgraded to 1.50 or upgraded with a custom firmware.

So unless you know someone with a hacked psp you can't do anything to a 3.52 psp.

If I'm wrong someone please correct me.
Hope this helps and try to read up on all the other topics before asking questions. It's all there.

XBOX Halo Ed. = DuoX2 w/250gb HD
Xbox 360 Red Elite 120GB HDD = no-stealth 1.6 & XBReboot V3 & 1TB usb hdd
PS2 Slim = freemcboot v1.8 - PSP Black Slim = 5.00m33-6
Wii = w/ Blue XCM ii-case, Wiikey2 & softmodded

There is currently no way of downgrading official Sony 3.52 except Pandora's Battery.

Question. I was thinking how can you brick a 3.52, don't you need it bricked in order to use the pandora. You can't update it anything else right. or is there a program or app that will brick your psp?

After creating the pandora battery you can just take your working 3.52 firmware PSP, stick the battery in and downgrade to 1.5

I already said, any under 3.50, through various methods.

Well yes, but he can't make the Pandora battery unless he gets one under 3.50.

You can either use an unpatched GTA:LCS or unpatched Lumines.

Besides GTA and Lumines you can also use the Pandora Battery Downgrader. Although you will need someone with a 1.5/Custom Firmware PSP to make the Battery/Mem. Stick combo for you.
