Hi everyone,

I have found my PSP in closet and decided to give it a go one more time.:) so the question is/are:
- My system software is: 5.50 GEN-D (FUll) and I want to update it to a latest CFW possible. What would be the best solution?
-Currently I have found CFW with the name: PSP CFW 6.39 GodPro-B8 JE is that the latest one and is it even possible to jump from GEN to GodPRO/smart decision just by updating it?
- anyone has any other CFW name that would be better than the CFW mentioned above?

My PSP mdoel is: PSP-1004 phat i guess :D since it is old.

Thank you for answer

The one you found is not the latest, also it is non-permanent. The latest is:
http://psp.dashhacks.com/file/2121
You can go directly from 5.50 GEN to that one.
Also need this:
http://psp.dashhacks.com/file/2119
The eboot.pbp contained in the 2nd file you need to rename to 660.pbp. For a guide, the first file contains a readme, just follow these four steps.
Oh, yea, almost forgot: You need to put the version.txt of your PSP back to stock, as a measure to prevent unintentional updates 5.50 GEN claims it is firmware 9.99. In VSH menue select USB MODE: Flash0 and connect your PSP with your PC via USB cable. Select the folders VSH, then ETC and there the version.txt document.
It should look like this:

release:999:
build:2740,0,3,1,0:builder@vsh-build6
system:46876@release_999,0x05000010:
vsh:p6264@release_999,v46652@release_500,20081010:
target:1:WorldWide

Set release:999: to release:550: and the update works. Don't forget to set the USB Device back to its original value when you're done, otherwise you can't access your memory stick anymore via computer.

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.

Thanks

Can anyone help with this at all, still have the same problem. I have done a bit of research and the hellcats soulution looks like it might work, anyone got any experience with this?

I had no problem with the same setup. My edit was 5.50 though not 550. Make it 5.50 and try again.

I might know what your problem is...if you have managed to get a text file like described by Eisherz, I had to put instead of 550 5.50 :) and that has done the trick :D
