Before I start, I have this question to ask:

Will Sony notice CFW when sent it?

I wanna know because I wanna send off my PSP for Service to Sony. I wanna be able to uninstall my CFW, which is at 5.00 M33-3 right now.

The thing is that I would use larrylje's guide and thought it was the best to use and easy as well, which was here:
http://forums.afterdawn.com/t.cfm/f-149/..._thread-708959/

If anyone has the guide backed up somewhere, that'd be great! Or if someone's been into CFW lately, than I have, could probably give me a better guide to follow

If you have CFW on your PSP Sony is not going to repair it because that killed the warranty. And of course they are going to detect it.

Xbox 360: Slim untouched with a faked 320 GB harddrive for XBL, phat with LT 3.0, played Halo early, so going on live would be an instand ban, also with a faked 320 GB harddrive
PS3: Untouched 160 GB Slim, 60 GB Fat with latest Rogero and 160 GB internal harddrive.
PSVita: hardly ever play it
GameCube: Black with a Viper chip installed. With gameboy player. Trying to get a Wavebird controller.

Well that sucks.

Like I said on the first post, the guide I used has been deleted. Is there a new way or maybe even the guide I used backed up somewhere with the links still up? I'm running at 5.00 M33-3 (am I actually missing out on some new firmware by Dark-Alex?)

Sorry for the double post, but I just remembered my brother got rid of his PSP that was also hacked and I know (the way I used to know at least) you needed another one that already had CFW.

Are there any easy to follow guides where it's possible to put CFW on a PSP without another PSP that already has CFW? By the way, Dark-Alex CFW seems reliable, but I keep hearing more of this "HEN" that's out there. Can ya fill me in on that?

Also: I know that there's a "2nd batch" that seems unhackable. Is there a way to tell and is there another way to hack it?

Just update your PSP with 6.20, you don't have custom firmware then anymore, but I don't know if some remains stay in the flash. Unhackable PSPs are the 3k's and later 2k's, if you have a 2k that is not modified check the date code on the sticker under the battery. Anything above 8c is unhackable.

HEN is only a homebrew enabler for those PSPs stuck on official firmware 6.20. Far from as good as custom firmware. Dark-Alex quit making new firmware (some say Sony pinned him down legally, but that's just rumor). The latest firmware is 5.50 GEN-D3 (if you count Prometheus as a standalone firmware that one is the latest ofcourse).

About the hacking a PSP without an already hacked one: Forum search chickHEN or Pandora Battery.

Yeah, that's what is getting me thinking.

Well that doesn't sound too good. I always thought that it was CFW. There aren't any other methods as close to CFW? What are some advantages and disadvantages? By the way, that sucks if Dark-Alex got pinned down by Sony... It's really drawing me back from updating to OFW 6.20

In your opinion, what guide would be a good one to use? I see a lot of them.
