Well I guess that explains why I could never find that key.bin file for NGC ripping too then. Great back in the dark on how to do things. I am amazed Im having so much trouble finding this crap, usually its no problem.Samutz said:
OKay nevermind. Can anyone confirm that once its uncompressed it should be a folder of about 136MB with 16 files in it? Thanks guys.
Yea there is a start.exe file in there and its 111KB, dont know about the icon though... Its something weird, cant really tell what it is. There is also four other .rar files in the folder, do those need to be uncompressed first? They are: fatextc.rar, fatpand.rar, slimpan.rar, and uniunbr.rar.joe_gamer said:
Hey does anyone know of a website with the PSP games released and their associated filenames like GBATEMP has for NDS and WII games?
[EDIT]
Nevermind, got it working
When it asked about writing the ABS sector, I acedently pressed enter before entering the y. Re-did it, and everything is fine
Thank a lot for this tut again!

Hey there,
Great tutorial you wrote there
I'm having a bit of trouble maybe you know what I'm doing wrong?
Well, modded the battery and created the Magic Memory Stick. Now the problem is when I insert the battery. The power, wifi and ms light all come on and nothing happens. It doesn't flicker or anything, just stays on. I left it running for about 15 minutes, and all three lights are remaining on and nothing is displaying on the screen. Anybody know what the problem could be?
I have a Fat PSP, and modded the battery that came with it when I bought it back on 05/05/05. It's the 1800mA one. I'm using a 4GB Sony Memory stick (Magic Gate).
Thanks in advanced!

Alright, now for the real question!
What needs to be updated or changed on the magic memory stick to make it both so you can see whats going on on the screen with a PSP slim AND to make it install the latest 3.90 M33-2 instead of the older 3.71 M33???

Just Replace Despertar del Cementerio on your memory stick with the latest version (version 4) on Dark Alex's website.
awesome! I bought the slim psp (2nd handheld every owned other than ds) and its GREAT! First i was very intimidated by the instructions but i followed anime_junkie's little trick and it worked like a charm. ive seached the entire web for other tutorials but this was by far the best. thanks. long live gbatemp

Wow, thats it and I will get both things? Will that install 3.90 M33 or 3.90 M33-2?ediblebird said:

Sorry, got slightly confused but that will install 3.80 M33, but its pretty easy to update it to 3.90 M33-2 from there.
Okay some probably very dump questions but I've read the guide and I'm wondering the following:
1.) So if I buy a Pandora battery I don't have to worry about doing any actual hardmodding myself?
2.) After installing the custom firmware will that enable me to play PSP roms and homebrew? Or is it one or the other?
3.) Is there any other places you'd recommend I go for extra info on the scene?
I apologize if any of these questions are covered and I missed it.

I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs -

I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
