He told me that he downloaded the newest firmware for the psp and now, he can't play games off the memory stick. Any idea on how to fix this?

Find a downgrader for whatever firmware he downloaded then just use chickHEN or however he modded it before.

We paid someone to mod it since we didn't have a pandora battery. They modded it using their pandora. I'll research this chickhen thing, if it doesn't use a pandora, then we might be able to remod it ourselves.

Also, i'm not sure what the firmware is now, but i think it's like 5.x

Ok, I asked him, he said that his psp's firmware is now 5.51. Is there any way we can downgrade it without a pandora battery?

I'm just getting into the psp modding thing (haven't done it yet - need to downgrade from 5.51 -_- ), but from my knowledge so far is that anything above ofw 5.03 requires a pandora.

If you have a pandora - come on! Google my friend!

there are 1000's of sites telling you what to do

http://www.pspmod.com/forums/psp-hardwar...uide-noobs.html

Here is one!

BEWARE - some slims cannot be pandora-ed try it and you can end up with a usless brick of plastic.

ALL phats can be - if you need a pandora battery then buy one - they are less than $10 - if you can wait try www.dealextreme.com

You HAVE to pandora if you have 5.51 or 5.55 firmware - from 5.03 or below look up Chickhen exploit

The Pandora stuff is here in the third post :-

If that doesn't help try posting which firmwares you have on both the Fat and Slim psp's. If they are both below 5.03 try the Chickhen Exploit here :-

It would probably be easier if you follow the guide and get the fat one down to 1.50 first if you plan on using the pandora battery to do the slim psp afterwards.

thank you for the links, i think the 2nd one would work best for my situation.
i tried this guide..
http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/552549
do i still have to follow the steps before Usage,
even though i already have a Pandora battery?
(PS, i have my own PSP slim with 5.00 M33-3)

I think you have to make a magic memory stick as well.
This should help you :-

He had made his own Pandora's Battery already.
Sorry I can't help you anymore as I didn't need a Pandora's Battery myself.
