  1. hoW can i downgrade 5.2 tO 1.5?

  2. hi,

    you do not need to downgrade it to 1.50 you can downgrade it to new cfw 5.00m33-3 if you now someone who has psp fat and already downgraded psp, then you need to make magic stick and pandora battery. if you have psp3000 it is not possible to downgrade it for now.

    hope this helps you.

  3. I had the same question as “briank” but I have a psp slim,is the downgrade posable. And how do I make a magic stick and Pandora battery. Thanks

  4. hi David,

    in order to make magic stick and pandora battery you need to have psp fat already downgraded and despertar cementario at least version 5 or 6.

  5. hi,

    where will I put my new XMB! in the iso?

  6. hi frank,
    no,u put new themes in theme folder.

  7. can i downgrade ir without using psp fat pandora battery and magic memory stick as my psp is slim. reply me asap. thanks, =]

  8. no, you can’t downgrade your slim without pandora battery and magic stick….well maybe you can but you need to make hard mode on your slim battery — it means that you need to open your slim battery and cut one leg of “processor” to make it work like panodra battery but i wouldn’t recomend that.

  9. i have psp slim but i suddenly upgreded to OF 5.02 and the i put in the iso folder are not working why

  10. iso is not working now becouse you have updated your psp to official sony firmware – OFW -, in order to play again your iso games you need to downgrade your psp to custom firmware – CFW -.

  11. Hi, I have a friend who has the PSP 1001 and just recently upgraded to the 5.02 OFW. I read the guide on making a magic stick and pandora but Im still confused on how that works. The guide tells you that you need to know someone who has a cfw already installed but nowhere does it say anything about what to do about that psp. I can easily follow the magic stick and pandora guide but what do i have to do using my friend’s psp that has a cfw? Is there another guide for that?

  12. in order to make pandora battery and magic stick you need to have already downgraded psp, psp with cfw. when you make pandora battery and magic stick then you put on your friend’s psp first magic stick then pandora battery that you have made on other psp that is downgraded. so, psp that has cfw is important in making magic stick and pandora battery that you use on psp that needs to be downgraded.

    hope this helps you,

    if you have any other question feel free to ask.

  13. Hi,

    I have recently bought a second hand psp.
    set it up on my routier, its now has 502
    official sony firmware, is it possable to
    change firmware to custom firmware to run
    games via mem card?

    from what i know the psp is stock
    5.02 sony OS
    sony 3.6v 1800mAh psp bat pack, (dont think its slim psp)
    512mb mem card

    thanks in advance

    Joe

  14. hi Joe,

    think that previous answers should help you answer your question.
    in order to play iso games and to downgrade your psp to cfw you need to have one more psp that is already downgraded so that you can make pandora battery and magic stick with that downgraded psp. when you do that then you put first memory stick to your psp and then pandora battery. Placing those two things to your psp you will be able to downgrade your psp to cfw.

  15. Thanks downmaster,
    ive just ordered me a pandora’s bat an mem card off the
    internet, youve been a great help an so has this page,
    thanks again bud.

    Joe

  16. Basically I have an original older PSP with 5.02 OFW but want to play PSX Emulators so I believe I need to downgrade. Is there a way of doing this without buying a Pandora Battery?

  17. Hi John,

    yes you need to downgrade psp, you can make pandora battery from your original psp battery but I am not recomending that becouse you need to open the battery

    read this:
    ….well maybe you can but you need to make hard mode on your slim battery — it means that you need to open your slim battery and cut one leg of “processor” to make it work like panodra battery but i wouldn’t recomend that.

    or this:
    …in order to make pandora battery and magic stick you need to have already downgraded psp, psp with cfw. when you make pandora battery and magic stick then you put on your friend’s psp first magic stick then pandora battery that you have made on other psp that is downgraded….

    hope this answers your question.

  18. hello i have psp slim 5.02 so how do i downgrade it when i have pandora battery and magic stick ???

  19. Hi Simon,

    here is the answer…

    …when you do that then you put first memory stick to your psp and then pandora battery. Placing those two things to your psp you will be able to downgrade your psp to cfw.

    when placing pandora battery and magic stick in psp simple menu for downgrade will show, all you need to do then is to choose what you want to do – example: do you want to INSTALL CFW or INSTALL OFW or work with NAND OPERATION etc.

  20. hi

    i was thinking of modding my psps wit pandora and MMS but i heard there is a motherboard that does not support the pandora battery.

    is this true?
    and if it is how can i check which motherboard i have

    PSP INFO: Slim
    2000 series
    came stock with firmware 4.99

  21. Hi,

    first…are you sure u have psp slim 2000? and firmware 4.99???

    that is strange to me a bit, i never heard about firmware 4.99.

    ofw are 4.01,4.05,5.00,5.02 – let’s say these are “new” ones, but 4.99?? never heard about that so please check that out.

    yes, it is true that new psp 3000 has new motherboard and for now still doesn’t support pandora battery.

  22. Down master
    Ill be lost without the info on here
    thanks bud, got my CFW installed
    an running
    🙂 m33-3 🙂
    Joe

  23. No problem, thanks to you for using my site, keep coming 🙂

    good night, it is in my country 1:19 am :)gotta go!

  24. oh.. i meant 4.05 then I’ve upgraded it to 5.02 now… i thought id point it out since i ve somewhere about the firmware the psp came wwith and that relating to the mother board

    so thers no such motherboard for the psp 2000 slims?

  25. that is correct there is no such motherboard for the psp slim, only for psp brite 3000.

  26. Is it possible to downgrade firmware 5.02 to m 33 on psp fat without magic memory stick or Pandora battery?

  27. Hi Lewi,

    sorry but no, it is not possible.

  28. hi pspdowngmaster,

    have you tried to change OFM 5.02 to any CFW?

    because i already went to shop, they tried using pandora batery and magic stick but i wont works…

    they said that i have to wait until new CFW out..

    can u email me.

    germnan@gmail.com

  29. hi there! is this really not possible.. for life or just for now..? thanks

  30. Hi there, first of all sorry if you have been waiting long for my replay…

    hi germnan,

    Hi Darl….
    sorry but possible what? psp 3000 for downgrade? hope it is not possible just for now.we’ll see 🙂

  31. Hello. I recently upgraded to 5.02 and was wondering if I do need another PSP that has already been downgraded? I already know about the Pandora and MMS.

  32. Hi,

    yes you need another psp that has already been downgraded in order to make pandora and magic stick.

  33. i need to know if i can downgrade my psp from 5.02 to 1.50

  34. hi Joker,

    i will try today and i will let you guys know.

  35. How to downgrade from 5.02 to 4.01 ?? Because of this, my PSP is unable to play games.

  36. hi,

    please read previous answers.

    in order to downgrade you need pandora battery and magic stick. how to do that it is explained on the page DOWNGRADE PSP and on this page also.

  37. Only me agin bud,

    Does slim psp support 16gb mem card or is it 8gb max?

    thanks

    Joe

  38. hey did the downgrade work?

  39. Hey guys, I used to have CFW 3.71 m33 or something like that, but recently, my brother upgraded the firmware to 5.02. I have a psp slim 2000, can i downgrade the firmware? I already have a pandora battery, well that’s what its called, i took the battery apart and did something to it, forgot what. If i can,to what cfw should i downgrade.

  40. Hi Joe,

    as far as i know slim supports max 8gb.

  41. yes it did, you can see clip on the page that i made. 5.02 is possible to downgrade.

  42. hi Ramiro,

    really doesn’t matter to what cfw should you downgrade, when you downgrade to any cfw you can upgrade to 5.00m33 – that is the newest cfw.
    soon should come out version 5.00m33-4.

    but you can downgrade to lets say cfw 3.80m33 then you can go online with psp and automaticly upgrade to newest cfw.

    hope i have answered your question.

    for any other information feel free to ask.

    bye

  43. hello you can tell me how i pass my psp OFM 5.02 to any CFW i have pandora battery thanks mail me please
    armando.rodrigues@pcpronto.pt

  44. hi jigsaw,

    do you have magic stick?

  45. Yo Down,
    Im having probs with 5.00 m33-3.
    my screen flickers an games struggle to load.
    you have any ideas?

  46. Actually yes i have….

  47. exit game to xmb menu
    push select button
    then in second line you will see “cpu speed” increase its speed for example to 133 or more.

  48. Cheers bud ill try it now,
    i noticed it was set to default earlier.

  49. ok

  50. 🙂 bud 😉 btw. i am girl not guy 🙂

  51. I have two psp slims,a blue and black one. I wanna use cfw but don’t know how to install. I’ve tried everything! I have pandora and as for the memory stick I have no clue wat yu suppose to do with that. I tried all these different mms things but all seem to be corrupt. Any suggestions on a good mms thing? I have official firmware 5.02. Please help!!!!!!

  52. hi mj,

    in order to downgrade psp you need one psp that is already downgraded, but as you already have pandora all you need is magic stick….the only way to make one is again having one downgraded psp so that you can begin the process of making magic stick.

    hope this answeres your question,

    for all other infomation please read all my responses here on page related to downgrading psp..if you still have some question feel free to ask.

  53. What am I suppose to do with the psp thAt is already downgraded?

  54. hi i initially had firmware 3.80 om sony psp slim 2004….i accidentally upgraded it to 5.02….initially i was able to play iso games in it…yes it showed a menu on pressing ‘select button’…but after i installed sony official firmware 5.02 i lost the iso folder ..i no longer can play games…see my psp shows “magic gate supported “…so what all should i need toput cfw 3.00m33 on it…help me pleaaseeeeeeeeeee

  55. hey pspdownmaster.. im havin a problem.. being reading all those posts.. i still cant find my answer.. i would like to kno if it is possible to downgrade 5.02 WITHOUT another PSP?

  56. hi sony,

    please read some guidelines on downgrade psp page on this site, if you still have some questions feel free to ask. basecly you need to have or make pandora battery and you need to make magic stick out of your normal memory stick that supports magic gate.

    any other question is welcome.

  57. hi randompsp,

    well yes and no. if you want to “destroy” your slim or fat original sony battery then you don’t need another psp – but i don’t recomend hard mode work on battery in order to make pandora battery.

    any other question is welcome.

  58. thanks for the fast reply..

    well basicly im a total noob at this stuff, and im totally confused being going through every site tryin to find a solution.. but all i want is to play ISOs, i am currently a FAT PSP 5.2 OFFICIAL FIRMWARE, what is the easiest way to do this? if possible avoiding the use of another psp, i also heard pandora battery is not necessary?

    thanks

  59. no problem,

    not necessary???? that is so funny, who told you that…. sorry but that is not true, that is the only way in order to downgrade psp, pandora battery can be made by software modification or by hard mode making – it means that you need to open your battery and fifth pin of “processor” needs to be cut- but as i said i really don’t recomend that to anyone, only if you have electronic skills to make battery work again as normal battery. there is no other way to do downgrade.

    sorry….

  60. oh umm.. if the battery cut method is successful is there any harm in some sort? and also.. if i need another PSP does it need to be a 1.5 firmware?

    thanks

  61. I have a phat PSP on 5.02 OFW and i need custom firmware. Is there any other way than making a Pandora battery and Magic Memory Stick of downgrading because im scared i mess it up.

    Should I just wait until the next custom firmware to come out and upgrade from there or do i need custom firmware to update to the next version?

  62. no, it doesn’t need to be 1.5firmware, it needs to run custom firmware anykind. well yes, when you cut that pin you can use that battery only as pandora battery and not like normal one. only if you know how to put it back together like it was – that pin before cutting- then it can again be a noramal psp battery – that is why no one recomends that but some people use that method. it is up to you now.

  63. hmm this is confusing me even more.. if i need another PSP that has custom firmware then whats the point? becos thats what i want to do right? making a custom firmware so i can get to the process of playing ISOs but.. im just so confused.. so basicly another PSP with custom firmware? but how can it have custom firmware? because i want custom firmware on my PSP nd i require another PSP with custom firmware??? =S sorry if im confusing you.. but what do you recommend being the firt step? like for the whole on-going process from a FAT 5.2 to be able to play ISOs?

    thanks

  64. hi Ross,

    in order to put new cfw you already need to have cfw on your psp….as you said that your psp is running 5.02ofw that means that you can’t, actually you can wait for new cfw to come,but you can’t install it on your psp becouse of the ofw. making of pandora is possible on 2 ways – hard mode / you need to open your original battery and cut 5th pin – don’t recomend that/ and the other way is sofware modification – MANY PEOPLE RECOMEND THAT WAY – well you can’t mess up a lot today so just you need to find some good tutorial how to do that and follow guidelines.

    for any other question feel free to ask.

  65. find a friend or someone who has psp that is downgraded, you use his psp to make pandora battery and magic stick so that you can use those two things on your psp to make downgrade. do you understand that? when you downgrade your psp you won’t need anymore friends psp or someones else. i recomend to you to find some one who has psp with cfw. where r you from?

  66. Could you recomend any good tutorials or ways to software mod please

  67. i will try to make tutorial tomorrow so you can expect tutorial tomorrow or on monday…i will put it on downgrade psp page but it will be visible on front page also…can you wait that long 🙂 ?

  68. Sure thing, look forward to it. You have been so helpful tonight. Everywhere else i look is just saying to use a Pandora battery but i dont want to do that. Thanks

  69. well…in some 1hour i hope you will have first version how and what you need to do …. but you need to make pandora battery…. you can’t downgrade without pandora….sorry…and you need to find one psp let’s say friends that is downgraded already in order to make pandora and magic stick.

    feel free to ask any other question….

  70. umm what firmware would my friends have to be? (recommended) soo once i make a pandora batetry and magic stick from him i use his pandora stick and battery on mines yeah? im from uk

  71. Hi is their a place where i can buy the pandora battery an memory stick already ready top use.

  72. hi there…
    yes i just saw your video showing that it is possible to downgrade 5.02ofw..
    butt i just read another article on this website that says PSP Slim & Lite motherboard TA-088 v3 can not be downgrade, that Pandora wont work on it….i am wondering if there is a way i can check to make sure my psp doesn’t have this motherboard…

    okay one last thing i have a psp 2000, 4gb memory card, and a Pandora battery(my friend’s).. anything else i need to downgrade??

    oh…ONE last thing…would you recommend to downgrade then upgrade or wait for the next cfw and upgrade?

  73. sorry.. here is the link to the article

    PSP 3000 SOON WILL BE HACKED – TA 088 V3 HACKED!

  74. psp from your friend should be running at least some of the m33 versions of cfw … lets say from 3.71m33 to 5.00m33, but i think that it can run even lower cfw’s. yes, once you make pandora and m.stick on his psp you use these two on your psp.

  75. hi michael,

    i really don’t know but i think there should be some shop online that sell that …. please try to find on comments here on page there was one guy who bought pandora battery…. try asking him where did he buy it…. sorry i really don’t know i know that in my country you can’t buy we don’t have that, we have to buy from other countries.

  76. hi.again..if i make magic stick out of my normal 8gb memory stick…will i be able to play iso games on my psp from that stick itself…or will i have to purchase a seperate memory card to load my iso games…also i would like to know from where in this site can i get the information to create a magic stick….definitely i loved your site so much..as u give the response very quickly…and right now when i saw the you tube video under downgrade psp whick was around 9 minutes..oh yeah it was interesting…and i am really sad tat here in india i dont know from where i can get a pandora battery…and yes i am not ready to sacrifice my psp battery too..as i would prefer a pre made pandora battery…dont know from where i will get tat….any way shall see u soon whenever i have a doubt….tanx…bye

  77. hi avg,

    no there is no way to check it out if you have mobo ta-088 v3 becouse you r not running cfw on psp. when you will be running cfw then you can find pspident software and then you can check out which mobo you have on psp.

    in order to downgrade psp you need also magic stick. you can find on downgrade psp page guide for making one with pandora deluxe 2.8 software. or you can just format psp on pc then download despertar cementario v7 form this page and follow the instructions in readme file.

    the newest cfw is 5.00m33-4 – you can find it on site – so you first downgrade and then upgrade to that cfw. 5.00m33-4 is out for a few days only.

  78. hi sony,

    thank you for nice words given.

    if you make magic stick from your 8gb stick after downgrading psp you can simply format that stick within psp and your stick then can load iso games….iso folder after formating will be created and you put iso games in that folder. in order to make magic stick please find despertar cementario v7 on this page or pandora deluxe 2.8 and follow their instructions on making magic stick.

    take care…

    good luck in finding downgraded psp or pandora battery.

    bye

  79. hi again 🙂
    okay so i understand that if i have cfw i can use other programs to check motherboard..

    but if the motherboard is not compatible with pandora, then i may brick my psp in the process of downgrading and then i cant use pandora to unbrick it cuz pandora is not compatible with that mobo…. so im kinda hesitant to try to downgrade…

  80. hi avg,

    then don’t downgrade your psp, wait a bit more to see wheater ta 088 v3 will be downgradeable with pandora…..but i think if you have bought your psp lets say till Septermber 08 then it is possible that you do not have that mobo in your psp… it is up to you wheater you will try to downgrade or not.

    bye

  81. Could a PSP 2004 Firmware 5.02 be hacked?
    Could a PSP 2004 Firmware 5.02 be hacked with a pandora battery and a magic memory stick?

  82. hi jack,

    yes psp2004 with 5.02 ofw can be hacked with pandora and magic stick.

  83. hey. I have 2000 5.02 and a buddy put his pandora and magic stick, and the psp wouldnt even turn on? plz help

  84. hi,

    can you please find out what software does he use on magic stick? try to download despertar cemenatario v7 from this page, you will have to find it somewhere,sorry. i was using that software in order to downgrade 5.02 ofw. maybe he has some lower version of this or any other software that doesn’t support ofw 5.02.

  85. hey there

    i got a psp-2004 slim, date code 7c (heard this might be important), my ofw is 5.02,
    i got a 1gb sony memstick PRO Duo magic gate
    and now i know bout that pandora batt. i hardmodded the damn thing (little sparks came out so i’m currently waiting for a new one) cause im like out in the woods and noboy got a psp round here.
    i think i found a good program to magicstick my memstick.

    now: how do i downgrade and to what cfw? is the downgrading the final step to at long last play games off my memstick?

    thx!

    and by the way compliment that you keep answering the same question over and over 😀

  86. hi jondoe,

    thanks for the compliment 🙂

    ok so in order to downgrade as you already know you need to make magic stick and pandora battery. when you do that then you first put magic stick in your psp and then pandora battery, and then you just follow instructions that are on your psp screen. it doesn’t matter to what cfw you downgrade but it would be good that you downgrade to at least 3.80m33 becouse then you can connect your psp through wifi – if you have it – to go online and upgrade your psp software version to the new one 5.00m33-4.

    hope this answers your question if you have any other question feel free to ask

  87. hey its me again
    thx for the quick answer!

    problem is as you said ” in order to make […] magic stick you need to have already downgraded psp ” i cant create magicstick cause i dont have a downgraded psp?

  88. well…actually i really don’t remember …. but i think that you actually can make magic stick through pc with command prompt but you do need downgraded psp for making pandora battery or you think of doing a hard mode on battery again 🙂 . i will let you know as soon as i find my old tutorials that i made for one croatian message board. it has been long time since i’ve been doin magic s. and pandora in that way.

  89. thank you very much

  90. hii downgrade master,,
    im nitin from india..idont get pandora battery or even xtra battery in india…accidentaly i upgraded mypsp to 5.02 and now i cant run iso games..please help me…

  91. hi nitin,

    soon will be tutorial on http://www.gamers4world.com site on how to downgrade psp to at least 3.71m33 cfw after that you all can upgrade to the new cfw 5.00m33-4. but as you don’t have panodora battery and can’t get extra battery then we will think of sth for you. you try to find someone who has psp fat version couse you need that battery and downgraded psp in order to make pandora battery.

    so please wait a bit till i put tutorial on the message board site.

    check us out soon.

  92. Hi there,
    your website is very useful indeed, but there is still something I don’t quite get. Do you need a pandora battery, a magic memory card AND another psp with cfw? Or do you just need the second psp to create the MMC?
    Thanks!

  93. hi pspdan,

    well you are the first one that can read old my tutorial on making mmc and pandora battery on http://www.gamers4world.com. in order to make pandora battery and magic stick all you need is psp with cfw, original sony fat battery and memory stick.

  94. right ive read all your comments and so far im a bit confused ive just brought my self a pre made pandora battery so dont need to make 1 but what do i need now do i have to have an old psp ?? or can i just make a mms and be on my way?? sorry reall confused

  95. hi nath,

    no need to be sorry, no one is born with Encarta in his/her head. now when you already have pandora battery you just need to make so called magic stick. and for doing that all you need is one already downgraded psp. there is my old tutorial on how doin magic stick on http://www.gamers4world.com that is old way but it could help you couse i think it is very good explained. if you still have some questions feel free to ask them on the message board. in order to view tutorial you need to register to the site. soon i will put new tutorial on making those two things.

    take care

    bye

  96. hi! me and a friend have both a fat psp each. do you think we both can get cfw by using both psps. I got ofw 5.02 and he gots 3.95 ofw.

  97. hi adrian,

    well sorry but no, there is no way to downgrade those two psp’s without having another one which already is downgraded. you just need to find another one psp that is downgraded in order to make magic stick and pandora battery. but here you can find my old tutorial on making pandora and magic s. if you still have some question feel free to ask.

    take care

  98. hi downgrade master
    thanx 4 the reply but can u plz tell me by what time video will cm to games4world.com….my psp sucks…i cant play any game in it.please help

    nitin

  99. hi nitin,

    what video do you want? for what?

  100. HI,
    So is it impossible to just download the files you said onto the memory stick in order to make it ‘magic’ without the need of a second psp with cfw. I don’t understand why you need the second one if it is possible to make an mms by just downloading some software?
    I ordered a pandora battery, and I have an extra stick (not magic yet) should that do the trick?
    Sorry if I’m being a complete idiot :)…
    Thanks

  101. hi pspdan,

    there is no need for being sorry, nobody is born with Encarta in his/her brain. please visit http://www.gamers4world.com in order to see tutorial that explains how to make magic stick with command prompt you need to register. hope this will help you and explain some stuff 🙂 if you still have question feel free to post it under help topic on the same site.

    take care

  102. thanls for the very quick reply but 1 last thing do i need another psp to make a magic memory stick? because i dont k now any1 with one?? and have u got a tutorial video of u putting cfw on the 5.2 i really need step by step instructions thanks sorry to be a bother

  103. hi nath,

    first i wanna thank you for registrating on my message board i saw you while ago online. for making magic stick you have tutorial on how to make one without psp, you only use command prompt, sorry i don’t have video tutorial on making magic stick and panodra i had it but i erased it. sorry. but tutorial that is on the gamers4world site i think that is very good explained and you shouldn’t have any complications when making magic stick…. ofcourse if you have ordered form somewhere pandora battery. i can try to do some tutorial on making magic stick if that would help you but it will be the same as the one on gamers4world. if you have some questions feel free when you start doing magic stick to post in help category on the message board. thx

  104. As i tought. since he has just abit too high ofw for downgrade it with tools ( programsn on the psp 😉 else we could done hes to cfw and downgrade mine after, with pandora bat and MMS 😉

  105. 🙂 have more good luck next time 🙂

  106. I upgraded to 5.02 not knowing it would turn my PSP into a brick. Then I researched and found out that I need a magic memory stick and a pandora battery. I looked at youtube tutorials and opened the battery and cut the right spot. Then I created an MMS [I think (in my games section there is a pandora’s icon and a despertar cementerio icon). Am I on the right track? I put the MMS in and then the modified battery (Pandora?) but it keeps bringing up the “Sony Computer Entertainment Screen” not the instruction screen. Where did I go wrong? What do I need to do? Thanks in advance.

  107. HI OZZY,

    well you r on the right track…but just becouse you have pandora’s icon and dc icon on ms doesn’t mean you have made magic stick. did you run despertar cementario icon? i don’t have much experiance on hard mode work of panodra battery so i can’t help you in that section much.

  108. HI I HAVE THE BLACK PSP ONE OF THE FIRST ONES TO COME OUT ITS FAT AND HEAVY I RECENTLY DID AN UPDATE TO VERISON 5.02 HOW CAN I DOWNGRADE TO VERISON 1.5O

  109. how can i downgrade my fat psp?
    its running on 5.02 fimware
    i dont want to use the pandora battery
    i would like 1.5 better thatn 3.90
    can u tell me how?

  110. hi john,

    sorry for wondering but why would you like to downgrade to 1.50? i don’t even know if there are still some other applications that can run new games that require new version of software.

  111. hi fatpsp,

    sorry again but i have same question for you as i had for john, i am wondering why would you like to downgrade to 1.50?i really don’t even konw if there are still some other applčications that can run new games that require new version of software. sorry but if you r running 5.02 there is no other way for downgrading other then using pandora battery and magic stick.

  112. hey pspdowngmasterm i have successfully created my pandora battery and magic memory stick.. however my problem is downgrading 5.02 OFW, what should i do now in order to load ISOs?

    thanks

  113. hi randompsp,

    🙂 ok first what is your problem downgrading or loading iso’s? 🙂 if it is downgrading then first put magic stick then pandora battery and follow screen instructions to downgrade psp. then when you downgrade your psp turn on psp and use “select” button, vsh menu should pop up on the screen, cpu clock game should be more then 222/111 and umd iso mode should be on m33 driver or sony np9660

  114. thanks for the fast reply 🙂
    hmm i have seen a few videos which tell me to put my magic memory stick in then my pandora battery, but when i do so nothin happens.. just the green light tellin me my pandora battery is in.. and nothin happens

  115. oh sorry i forgot to mention..
    didnt u tell me i had to downgrade to play isos?

  116. ofcourse you need to downgrade psp in order to play isos. you haven’t made magic stick out of your memory stick that is why just green light is on.

  117. hey its okay now.. i manage to do it all.. just misread the guide.. currently on 4.01 CFW! 😀 now what should i do to play isos?

    thanks

  118. when you downgrade your psp turn on psp and use “select” button, vsh menu should pop up on the screen, cpu clock game should be more then 222/111 and umd iso mode should be on m33 driver or sony np9660

  119. thanks for that.. nd where do i put my ISOs? i read a guide sayin u put it inside GAME but i tried that.. nothin works

  120. format memory stick in your psp then new folders will create. iso,cso,dax games you put in iso folder – not video folder inside iso folder- and psx games you put in game folder.

  121. okay iv done all that.. but i cant seem to find any ISO folder inside my PSP or i cant find the ISO file in my games bit aswell.. where do i load the ISO?

  122. sorry i don’t understand what do you can’t find where…..you look for iso folder on your memory stick not psp.

  123. yeah there is an iso folder on my memory stick.. i put my .cso file in it.. now i cant find it on my psp for some reason i have did all those things u told me to do with the select button..

  124. go to game icon and choose memory stick on your psp xmb menu.

  125. thats what i meant.. theres nothin there.. just my custom frimware update .. im confused..

  126. then you haven’t formated your memory stick inside of your psp
    go to system settings – and find there format memory stick.

  127. ohh!

    thanks very much!

    i got it!

    thanks!!!!

  128. np

  129. Hi,

    i have an original psp with the latest psp sowtware. (5.02). so if i buy a pandora battery and a magic memory stick then i can download and play iso games? That simply?

  130. Hi Dan,

    when you buy pandora battery and magic memory stick then you can downgrade your psp so that it can load iso games. when you do that then you can download and play iso games.

  131. oh btw one more question.. i dont kno if you kno anythin about this but.. its about ATRAC3.. do you hav any idea i can convet .mp3 files to .at3? i tried using SOny Sound Forge to convert it to WAV using custom ATRAC3 settings but when i replace the song in my ISO nothin happens.. in fact.. the whole ISO has no BGM at all but there is sound when u move up and down..

    any help?

    thanks!

  132. where can i get the pandora battery and the magic memory stick ?

  133. Hi,
    I am getting the pandora battery and already have the magic stick. when i have both do i just put them in the PSP and a downgrade icon will come up on the menu so i can play copied games?

  134. Oh, my PSP is 5.02 OFW.

  135. hi randompsp,

    psp does not support the .at3 format.

  136. hi fatpsp,
    you need to buy it or make one. look at the page DOWNGRADE PSP on this site you will see what you need to do if you want to make pandora battery and magic stick, if that doesn’t satisfy your questions look at the tutorial category on this page http://www.gamers4world.com. if you still have some questions feel free to ask

  137. hi PSP-Fat,
    no, there will not be any downgrade icon, please try to find clip when i downgrade my psp to 4.01 so you will see the process of doing downgrade, it isn’t good picture but i am sure you will know what you need to do. when you get panodra battery , first put magic stick then pandora baterry and then automaticly screen will ask you if you want to install cfw you press X and then will process of downgrading start. when downgrading is finished you need to turn on your psp and click “select” button, so called vsh menu should be on your screen. cpu clock game should be at least at 222/111 and umd iso mode should be at m33 driver. that is very important to do. and you r done, format your memory stick that you will use for games, iso games you put in iso folder on memory stick.

  138. huh? how do i replace the music of my ISO? there in the format .at3 though

  139. sorry i really don’t understand what are you asking me.

  140. umm.. sorry.. err what i mean is.. i dont like the soundtrack of my ISO and i want to replace the music in the USRDIR folder but i want to ask you if you kno how to do it? thanks

  141. hey i have a psp 1000 and i have it at 5.02 but i noticed when i have my midnight club game in i can update to 1.50 could i do that and skip the pandora battery and just do the magic memory stick thing.

  142. ohhh, well you just need to replace existing file with the one you’ve created…but as i recall you have done that and nothing happened so i really don’t know what you have done wrong.sorry.

  143. hi ace,

    sorry but no that is not possible becouse 1.50 is lower then 5.02 and psp system knows that so even if you try to do that system will tell you that you have higher ofw and that you do not need that update.

  144. well.. do you kno any converters? that converts mp3 to at3 files? everyone recommends sonic stage but the installation doesnt work because the server is closed and sony doesnt do that software anymore

  145. hi randompsp,

    sorry but no i don’t know.

  146. hi once again….so finally i could find the pandora battery yeah …here it is really costly around 2500 rs. and the person told me that he can crack it for me for 400 rs.should i buy a pandora or make him crack it for me.see if he crack it for me will it be possible for me to update my psp firmware regularly….if so what update version should i make regularly and where should i search for such updates …and hey tech i have one more q….i am really looking for the fusa software so that i can play psp on my tv as my tv doesn’t support progressive mode…what shall i do???where can i get this fusa and how should i install it on my psp….

  147. hi sony,

    well if person wants to crack battery then you haven’t found pandora battery, you have found original battery that needs to be cracked….or maybe it is cracked and person wants to take more money from you to lets say “crack” it again – by that i mean that he won’t do anything becouse he already has pandora battery. fusa software you can find on this site try to look for it there should also be a readme inside the zip folder so you read readme and you will see how to install it. new cfw is 5.00m33-4 and you can find it also on this site like fusa. ohh and yes once you have pandora you can regularly update cfw. pandora battery you only need for downgrade psp to cfw once you do that you won’t need it again hopefully, so once you have cfw you can reguraly update to new cfw.

  148. hey thank u so much for your reply…and i am sorry actually what the shop keeper told me was tat he was having a pandora battery which is really costly(2500 rs.) and the other other option he kept before me was tat he will crack my psp with just much lesser price(400 rs.) which means i won’t be getting pandora battery but i will get my psp cracked for playing iso mode…so like u said shall i give him my psp for cracking or should i buy pandora battery??….your decision will make it all…

  149. well if you can buy it it would be good to have pandora, if it is too much for you to buy it then ofcource just downgrade it.

  150. thank u so much for your valuable comment….and i really appreciate u for the work done by u for all of us….keep goin and i shall come soon whenever any doubt persist…ok then byeeeeeee…….

  151. Hello pspdownmaster.

    Recently i just bought a new psp2000 come with version 4.05,but then i accidently updated the system software to version 5.02.

    After i went thru your page i understand that i must have a pendora battery and also a downgraded mms psp, to make me revert the system operation become 3.80 so i can play the iso game.
    But my problem is i already brought my psp to game shop and they try to downgrade it, which i believe by changed the mms and also the pendora battery as i saw them doing it. That is exactly as what you recomended.
    But it was unsuccesful and i was informed by the shopper that psp slim version has a 2 version, the old version we can modify them and the another version we can`t modify, and my one is maybe the 2nd version which i can`t downgraded it same with the psp3000. Im wondering if that true because afterall i went thru all your responses i didn`t found that the psp slim n lite version can`t downgraded?

    or mayb there is another ways? and another one is that possible to use my frend psp`s memory card as a mms since he had the phat one but not downgraded?

  152. Hi hychael,

    yes it is true, some psp 2000 versions can’t be downgraded…these psp’s have new motherboard so called ta088v3…well acutally it can be downgraded but there is still no software that we can use in order to downgrade it, we are waiting DA to come up with new DC or some patch that so that we can downgrade these psp’s.

  153. Hello master,

    Thanks for that explanation, at least its relief to know that my psp can`t be downgraded cause its already made my life crazy this around few days. So now i have more choices to choose wheather to sell it again or waiting for the new dc or some patch to broke that motherboard.
    Well do you have any idea when will the new DC will be release, i hope it would be soon and not take tooo long time to get it.

    erm…i still can`t believe your are actually a girl??? since you are so master in psp do you any psp for sell(prefer slim n lite)??? i`m willing to buy it from you as long as the cost are reasonable…i would be very proud if i had one from you even its is a used psp 🙂

  154. hello I made my pandora battery and when I turn on it tunt ons the regular way. Is it good thing?

  155. hi hychael…well acutally not just that i am girl i am mother also 🙂 look at page who is pspdowng-master, and read what i wrote in my psp collection page.

    no,sorry i have no psp for sell, don’t know when new DC will come out, check reguraly message board http://www.gamers4world.com it will be posted there when anything new comes out.

  156. hi jack dude,

    well….what happens when you just put the battery in psp without turning the power on? if pandora is made then automaticly green light should be on, if it is not then u haven’t made pandora battery.

  157. I have psp 2001 firware version 5.02 and when I put the pandora battery green light does not turn on itself. Do I need to have it in full charge to do it?

  158. Hello psp master its me again.
    How can i know the psp slim using the motherboard ta088v3?
    can we detect it by looking at the serial number? or any other ways because im planning to buy a new one?
    But If im buying from online how can i detect It? because not every online sellers can be trusted nowdays.
    Now i have to be more careful when buying the slim version.
    In my country Malaysia the price of PSP slim version going up like crazy from RM700++ to RM900++ after the launch of PSP3000,this is because psp3000 can`t be downgraded.

  159. hi jack again :),

    why would you charge it if it turns on normaly….problem is that you haven’t made pandora battery.

  160. hi hychael,

    sorry but here is no way to know what mobo has ur psp…the only way to know that is that downgrade can’t be made,becouse all other mobo’s,except psp3000 mobo that also can’t be downgraded,all other mobo can be downgraded.

  161. hi…it’s me again!!!..as u told i have planned to give my psp to that person for cracking…i shall b givin it this jan 2nd (as i cannot buy pandora which is costly) so here is my big q? see once i get my psp cracked shall i install all the softwares under “X MB SUPPORT TOOLS”of pandora deluxe 2.8..and should i install those “pandora support tools also”… all though i read the read me of pandora deluxe 2.8 my doubt is why r those pandora support tools meant for although in the beginning of the read me file it is written that these programs cannot be used for creating pandora batteries??…and see is there any software which will PREVENT the psp from installing official sony firmware..because by installing official sony software 5.02 costed me crack the psp one more time…also what r those XMB support tools meant for beginning from vshmenu,custom firmware extender to usb faker..where can i get details of those 18 tools except for fusa which i know…also should i install POPSLOADER
    ..
    thank u once again hope u give me the best response once agin like u were always and see is there any forums other than this page..shall i post my doubts on forum message board..currently it has no responses…

  162. hi sony,

    i own both sites this and message board..it doesn’t have responses becouse only yesterdey had flayingapples posted, everyone else is still posting here their questions. once you downgrade your psp you don’t need anything from pandora deluxe. there is no software which can prevent the psp form installing ofw. details on those 18 tools you can find only by google maybe some of those tools are explained on my paige,really don’t know which all 18 tools are we talking about, but i am sure you won’t need all 18 of them 🙂 or maybe i am wrong. well abt popsloader you can install it, but maybe you even won’t need it. when you see that you can’t play some psx game then install it.

  163. other wise i will have to go other contry to buy it for cheaper prise $$ =)

  164. Hi aboon2

    change firmware to custom firmware to run iso
    games?

  172. Master.. can i ask something?
    i’ve got a 5.02 OFW, i updated it using wireless though..
    anyways, this freaking firmware cant let me play iso/cso files.. T__T
    i’ve tried lots of stuffs on downgrading this freaking firmware, but none of them suceeded.. i guess..
    i need help with pandora battery, i have SLIM battery, i’ve watch several videos on youtube on how to create pandora battery using SLIM, well, i dont care if the battery cant get back to normal, as long as my PSP goes back to CFW, i’ll be ok..

    1st i’ve scratch the board as said in the tutorial, nothing happened..
    2nd i overdo the scratch thingy, nothing happened..
    3rd, i again scratch with all my might (i dont care if it broke), nothing happened.. take note that the battery is still fine..
    4th i cut the 5th pin indicated on the tutorial that if that pin is cutted, it will not work as normal battery anymore.. but, nothing happened, my battery is still doing fine..
    5th, i cut the pin where in u nid some scratching, i guess it’s called 4th pin, some tutorial made me to do this, so? try and try until my battery broke, i tried it, and guess what? nothing happened..

    im losing hope, help master! there’s no way i can buy pandora battery, i’ve search everywhere..

    is it just my battery? or that OFW 5.02 is unhackable? i got Model PSP-S110 as my battery (SLIM)
