i am a newbie to this homebrew thing, right here goes, i heard about the magic memory stick and the pandora battery thing, i have a fat psp and firmware 3.71. I saw on the internet that you could not directly downgrade to 1.5 to use homebrew games, so i tried to go from 2.71 to 3.71m33 then to 1.5, a website video said it would work and so i went along with it. I successfully made my magic memory stick and am yet do do the pandora. I put the memory stick in the psp and turned it on now all i get are 3 options:

1) Press x to install 3.71 m33
2) Press o to install original 3.71
3) Press l,r,start and home to restore nand dump physically(dangerous):s

i have tried both options 1 and 2 and they both say successfull install and press x to turn off psp. When i turn it on it just comes up with those 3 options again. Please and help would be very apreciated as i am really stuck. thanks

once you have done the CFW and press X to reboot put a normal batery in and remove the memory stick and then go through settings to check firmware vsion

you can use the pandora battery and the magic memory stick to undo what has been done its 99.9% doable

boykiller is right but if this is not working for you, you will need to downgrade to 1.50 for the fat or 3.60 for the slim this would be official firmware not custom, and restart again
