@deepansh- did you get your problem sorted with the memory stick? I am sure its just something with the memory stick not having the IPL written properly.

**Additional up to date information can be found HERE Do be sure and register on the official UPMS forum site as well for the latest news and updates and to chat with the great bunch of guys that brought us this amazing breakthrough.**

This is the one you have been reading about-The one where you can:

** upgrade slims to 3.71-2 M33
** upgrade phat to 3.71-2 M33 w/ 1.50-2 kernel patch
** downgrade phat to 1.50
** upgrade phat straight to 3.52 M33 from Extended Boot Menu then install update 4 no need to downgrade to 1.50
** start up PSP with Ultimate Loader with support For choosing which Pandora's you reach V1 or V3(by hold L trigger)
** boot to XMB (Phat Only)
** boot to a full 1.50 from Mem Stick (Phat Only)
** use PSPFiler and other tools (If it requires 1.50 slims can't)

All from one memory stick...

The best thing about this, is that all you need to create your pandora battery, and your Ultimate Magic Stick, is a custom firmware enabled psp...No more confusing mspformat commands and IPL manipulation...You dont even need to use your computer-except to transfer the files to your PSP [Vista users rejoice!!]-If you can run a cso from your psp-you too can have the power of Pandora in your hands! All from an easy to use GUI-enabled installer that runs from your psp-

This will eliminate the issues people are having when attempting to create a memory stick using Vista as everything is done from your PSP.

*********************************************************************
*********************************************************************

Before you get started, you will need:
1> A psp with custom firmware already installed
2> A battery you want to convert to a Pandora (yes,it can be converted back)
3> A spare memory stick PRO DUO (256MB-2GB)
4>1.50, and 3.71 official $ony firmware updates
5>The installer which can be found HERE, or HERE

Getting Started:
1>Format your memory stick(from the psp menu)-{make sure you back up any game saves, MP3's, etc, beforehand}that you plan to use as the UPMS
2>Go into USB mode and delete all but the ISO, and PSP folders
3>While in USB mode-copy the UPMS installer.cso into your ISO folder
4>Copy the 1.50 update to the root of your memory stick-named as 150.PBP
5>Copy the 3.71 update to the root of your memory stick-named as 371.PBP
6>Run the UPMS program from the XMB as you would an ISO or cso. (make sure your NO-UMD is set correctly in recovery mode-SONY NP9660)
7>Follow the steps in order (1-4)from the UPMS program {If you already have a Pandora battery set up, you can skip step #2 in the installer}

*********************************************************************
-For best results, follow each step in order and as follows:>>NOTE: This applies to a full version install<<
Step#1-Select the 'sleep fix Multi-IPL' option
Step#2-Backup your eeprom, then create Your battery
Step#3-Install UPMS with utilities (slowest)-It may take a while-Please be patient. (This will install the extras from step #4)
Step#4-Skip this step if you used the 'full version' installer and selected 'Install UPMS w/ utilities from step #3 (If you used the 'Limited' version-you will have to install the programs seperately.)

>>UPMS Limited Version found HERE

*********************************************************************

[b]Instructions on how to use UPMS:

FAT PSP:
->Insert the UPMS memory stick
->Hold down the L trigger button
->Insert Pandora battery
->Release L trigger button when the Ultimate Loader menu appears
(If your psp boots to the XMB, it means you didn?t hold the L trigger button down)

SLIM PSP:
->Power off and remove your slim battery.
->Insert the UPMS memory stick
->Now hold L and insert your Pandora Battery.
->Release L when the MS light or screen flashes.
->UL will automatically assign the 3.71 folders and launch DCv3

You should then see the main menu (Ultimate Loader)
-From here you can select the following:

-- Launch Pandora Extended Menu (Hellcat)
-- Activate folders for Pandora Menu Launcher (The Joker)
-- Activate folders for 371M33-2 & Launch Cemetery v3
-- Tools Menu


Hellcat Menu-[>>NOT FOR USE ON SLIMS<<
This is the Extended Pandora Boot Menu(EPBM).

NOTE: Make sure your wi-fi switch is OFF or in the down position before using this menu-otherwise you may encounter a blank screen, or some of the menu options will not appear. In which case you'll have to take out and re-insert the battery.

Actions:
-Boot to full firmware (from memorystick)- This will only boot your psp to a full 1.50 firmware for testing, etc..
-Go to Pandora mainmenu-This is where you launch original Pandora v1 (unbrick/downgrade to 1.50)
-Boot PSP from internal flash- This will boot your psp as it normally would-if flash is corrupted, it wont boot.
-Fix flash1:/ (format and create directories)? used for formatting flash1-resets configuration files
-Launch app with flash0:/ access- From here you can select your app by changing the path to point to the 'keycleaner' folder
-Launch CFW installer-This is where you would update to 3.52M33(This needs to be setup first before you can use it-
You do this by doing the following:
-Boot into Ultimate loader
-Select Hellcat menu
-Scroll to 'Launch CFW Installer'
-Press 'O' to choose your path
-You will want to scroll to '352UPDATE' from the drop down menu, and select it using the X button
-It should now say "new path saved"
-Now when you select 'Launch CFW Installer', just press X, and it will take you to the 3.52M33 installer after doing the preparations(on the brown screen-)
-This will install 3.52M33 (first release)
[NOTE: you have to run the m33-4 update from the XMB under the GAME menu when you are done?It?s the one with the calendar])
-USB Options-Pretty straightforward, connects your psp to USB

Joker Menu->NOT FOR USE ON SLIMS<
This is the Pandora Menu Launcher by TheJoker

Actions:
-Despertar del Cementerio v3?This is where you upgrade fat or slim PSP?s to 3.71M33-2 or official Sony 3.71-You can also backup or restore NAND images (NOTE: You will have to run the 1.50 kernel patch (for fat PSP?s only) from the XMB under the GAME menu)
-Pandora main menu? This is where you launch original Pandora v1 to unbrick/downgrade to 1.50, as well as backup or restore NAND images.
-Pandora battery creator-From here you can create a Pandora battery, or restore your Pandora battery to a normal working battery.
-Simple IPL Patch (TA-082/086)-You can patch the IPL with this custom IPL so you can unpatch Key 5 for TA-082/086 (use at your own risk-Recommend using Chilly Willy?s Keycleaner)
-KeyCleaner 1.4?This is Chilly Willy?s KeyCleaner- Where you can analyze, fix, backup, and repair IDstorage keys (for advanced users only)
-IDstorage Manager 1.3-Same as KeyCleaner-You can also edit and create IDstorage keys (again, for advanced users only)
-PSP Filer 4.0?Simple file manager for PSP where you can copy, move, delete, and rename files
-USB Connection?Gain access to your memory stick, flash0, and flash1 folders
-Run (ms0:/kd/home1/EBOOT.PBP)?You can run homebrew apps, etc from here up to 5 spots (home1-5)

Despertar del Cementerio v3- (Standalone)

This is where you upgrade fat or slim PSP?s to 3.71M33-2 or official Sony 3.71-You can also backup or restore NAND images (NOTE: You will have to run the 1.50 kernel patch (for fat PSP?s only) from the XMB under the GAME menu)

Tools Menu (by jasOnuk)
*Launch elf files from this menu
*Included are two Elf files. NANDManager and NANDTool
*Elf Creation
1.Use PBP unpackerand extract the data.psp file
2.Rename data.psp to ?anything you like?.elf
If named ?anything?_FAT.elfor ?anything?_SLIM.elfit will only work for that model and will be grayed out for the other
3.Place your new elf in the elf folder
4.Run app and launch elf

*********************************************************************

Setting Up Extra Memory Sticks:
If you wish to use additional memory sticks but leave your battery set up as a Pandora so that you can leave the one that contains the U.M.P.S files alone-
Just do the following:
1> Connect to your AC supply-sans battery.
2> Insert the memory stick you wish to use.
3> Switch on you psp.
4> Format the memory stick from within the xmb.
5> Go to the USB icon and connect to the computer.
6> Open up the ISO folder and place the UPMS installer cso inside.
7> Disconnect from the computer.
8> Go to the Game icon in the xmb and run the installer.
9> Only run step #1,and choose the multi ipl option, this will then allow you to use this memory stick as a normal one with your Pandora battery.
(you do not need to install all of the files-Just run step#1 and exit).

IF YOU ARE USING A SLIM PSP AND BATTERY FOR YOUR U.P.M.S YOU MUST RETURN THE BATTERY BACK TO ITS NORMAL MODE OTHER WISE YOUR PSP WILL NOT SWITCH ON

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

>>Changes and revisions<<

Please note:
You only need to copy over to your memory stick 150 EBOOT and 371 EBOOT, the installer takes care of the UPDATE EBOOT.

Changes:
Full Version:
Removed all Sony prx's and bin files from CSO.
Added latest battery code from Cory, now works for fat and slim psp's
Added automatic battery eeprom backup when you enter the battery menu.
When installing you can now see what is being installed and to what folder.
Both 371 - 150KernelAddon and 371Update3 are installed to the GAME folder no more corrupt icons (thanks to 1 of our members)
Jas0nUK's elf menu is installed directly.
Cory's NandTool is installed direct to the elf folder
NandManager is installed direct to the elf folder


Limited Version:
This is an EBOOT version and has the same functionality as the full but without the addition of the Utilities, these will need to be installed separately via step #4 in the installer.


Ultimate Loader:
Added PSP Model detection
Added USB access (ms0, flash0, flash1)
Added Shutdown option
Reorganised a few things
Added a tools menu to access various tools (only 1 option atm)
Added a few colors to brighten it up a little



WARNING
Be careful if installing MaxSafe, while testing we came across a few issues using it to downgrade a 3.71 psp to 1.50, it will not write the IPL and you will end up with a brick.
You have been warned.


-Enjoy!!
