Before you flame me, I have looked all over this forum and the interwebs for anything that could help me with this with zero results.

You gotta be kiddin me... I have searched and searched and cannot find any info on downgrading my Phat 3.30 PSP to 1.50 or to upgrade to a custom version.

Everything I have found has dates from almost 2 years ago.

Is it STILL not possible? after 2 years I'd figure they would be able to come up with SOMETHING.

I just want to put custom firmware on this thing.

Can anyone help me?

You have 2 options...

1st option: is using the LUMINES game exploit downgrader to downgrade to 1.50. HERE is a guide for you to follow. Refer to the -3.10 - 3.50 Any Motherboard section. After you downgrade to 1.50 use this guide HERE to update to 3.52 M33 or higher CFW.

2nd Option: Use a Magic memory Stick + Pandora Battery to install CFW to to the PSP. HERE is a guide for you to follow for this option.

Thanks Larrylje. I'm glad you replied. I was beginning to think I was the only one who ever had a PSP with version 3.30 from a year ago and that it was hopeless.

With the two options you gave me I am leaning towards the Lumines option because I dont want and extra hardware. If I follow the lumine instructions to the letter and all works out ok, then I should be able to update me PSP to 3.71 M33 without having to have any additional hardware or UMD's, correct?

Thanks again.

Have a great holiday.

Yes that is correct if you use the first method all you need is the Lumines game. Then after you downgrade to 1.50 use the other link I provided to update to custom firmware.

But you might want to think about buying a Datel Tool Battery and use the second method. It is a safer route to go. Plus if you brick the PSP after installing custom firmware you will still have the battery to recover it using the second method again.

So in a way it is a nice safe guard to have.
