Okay before everyone says to use the search function, i have and i tried a number of guides. But since i just got my PSP im very new to the custom firmware and pandora battery. I have a PSP with version 3.72. Can anyone givce me a thorough guide PLEASE! I tried using youtube.com but for some reason nothing seems to work, maybe its becuz im new to the psp world and modding and such, but i have now a firm grasp on pandoras battery and custom firmware although i dont have either. So if u can PLEASE link me.

In advance,
Thank You!

Aaa, yes i used that one. Well i completed "Magic Memory Stick" part successfully i think, i got no problems. Than it came to the part of Pandora battery. I saw forums where u can download a file or something and make it work and here it wass saying to buy it, which i dont have much money for, so i didnt really understand that part. =( And after that i continued and when i went to open MUX 2.0 it gave me that error code again while opening.

Ok you need both a pandora battery and magic memory stick to put custom firmware on your psp. The guide I linked you to also has a link to a guide to hard mod a battery - that will make it pandora.
If it's the only battery that you have you'll need to convert it back though - I don't have a link handy on how to do that.
Or if you know someone that has a custom firmware psp - use that guide - link

hi binkie, Juniior if u want to convert ur battery back to normal this is how u do it. If you only have one battery and want to unbrick your PSP, you can. from touran22 guide

1) Convert your battery into a jigkick one using "Pandora's Battery Creator", but before you press X, press TRIANGLE to backup your battery's EEPROM to ms0:/eeprom.bin
2) Unbrick your PSP as normal
3) When you are done unbricking, take out the battery and the magic memory stick. Start up the PSP using the AC adaptor (do not try to use a USB charger, it will not start up)
4) Insert the magic memory stick and the magic battery
5) Run "Pandora's Battery Creator" again
6) Press L+R to restore the ms0:/eeprom.bin to your battery

NOTE: You can also restore a battery without having made a backup, by pressing SQUARE at step 6. This will generate a fake serial for your battery (0x12345678) which allows it to work normally, but there could be side-effects.

Okay, thanks ghuys for the replies although im still getting a problem with the pandoras battery. I went to the first guide provided by Binkie (Thank you) and it showed me how to do physical work to my battery. Although i dont wa't to cause any problems if i do anything wrong because than i cant get it returned. If its possible can i somehow use files or so. Now i also did go to the second guide u linked me to, it said how to make a pandora battery using 1.5 version and how to make a pandora battery using custom firmware, neither of those i have.

Thanks for the help guys, its really appreciated hopefully i could get this fixed.

In Advance,
Thank You!

@ 07anto07 - howdy :)

Well for the slim psp you need one of 3 things for the pandora battery - a datel tool battery, hard mod the battery or someone's psp running custom firmware to create one.

There are also people who will do it for you - just need to pay shipping both ways. Where are you located?

Yes you would need another battery. There's a guide around here somewhere of converting it back - I think you have to re-solder the pin back in. I think there's also one around here about just using a wire or something to convert it to Pandora. But I'm not too sure how easy either one is.
You might be able to pick up a datel tool battery cheaper - check out http://www.codejunkies.com/ or http://consoleshop.com/.

Hmmm Canada - I can't think of anyone off the top of my head in your area. I'm sure there are though.
