Yes, just update to 3.40OE-A. It's a mix of 1.5 and 3.40, but with a lot of extras like customizing your home screen, playing ps1 games, and playing iso's. You can always go back to 1.5 from it easily. Here's a guide and a link to the easy installer.

uh, being a complete dumbass and cutting the power during flashing, or not following the instructions correctly will brick 99% of the time.
(+[__]%) put this psp in ur siggy. just do it.

Well the website that guy just gave me to download seems pretty simple. My umd drive doesnt work "properly" so is that gonna be a problem? oh and i dont have charger for my batter to connect to the psp. i have a charge where i put the batter inside the charger and than hook it up to the wall. Is that gonna be a problem? thx guys.

Check your recovery settings, see if anything had changed.
#1: 2.81 -> 3.03 -> 3.11 DoH (no more :D)
#2: 1.00 -> 1.5 -> 3.03oe-c
#3: Ceramic white 1.5 -> 3.03oe-c -> 3.40oe
Whatever happens, happens...

well that's the problem. my psp is new so i do not know what my initial settings were. i couldn't have changed anything from the recovery menu because i only learned that such a thing existed after my tekken 5 stopped playing.

Your settings might change itself, if something is wrong with your flash1.
I assume you have an umd in your drive.
Go to recovery menu, disable NO-UMD
Go to advanced, advanced settings, disable all 3 options.
#1: 2.81 -> 3.03 -> 3.11 DoH (no more :D)
#2: 1.00 -> 1.5 -> 3.03oe-c
#3: Ceramic white 1.5 -> 3.03oe-c -> 3.40oe
Whatever happens, happens...
