Hacking Just Got a Darth Vader PSP(Hack Help)

cruznik71450 · Feb 28, 2011

Went and bought a Darth Vader PSP today. It has firmware 3.95 where do I start for hacking? I Have never Hacked a PSP before and i really don't want to mess it up. Thanks I'm a complete noob to this.

Your psp is fully hackable to my knowledge, so you can put what you want on there, but

you have a some choices to make depending on what you want, preferably what CFW you want.

What do you want on it exactly?

cruznik71450 · Feb 28, 2011

I want to play backups, emu's, and PSX games on it.

Just follow the How to softmod your PSP sticky. Since you have a fully hackable 200x (check with PSPIdent as described in that sticky how to identify your mobo) and you're new i suggest that you update all the way to 5.50 Prometheus-4

cruznik71450 · Feb 28, 2011

So can I run Backups, PSX and Emulator's with 5.50 Prometheus-4?

xist · Feb 28, 2011

For a noob user it's the simplest way to accomplish all those things with minimal fuss.

Ran through the tutorial and it worked like a charm. Got Prom-4 cfw installed and the backups i have work like a charm. thanks again.

Whatever the folks around here tell you, buy a Pandora battery. well worth the $7-8...

It's useful if you like flashing stuff.

Or, you can get a battery, and install CFW on the PSP and convert the battery into a Pandora so if it screws itself up, you can restore it with minimal fuss.

Why would you bother ruining a good battery?

I have one of these: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/pandora-servi...0-1800mah-22349

Works excellent in both modes.

Why bother? Because not everyone can buy online.

Because if you brick your shit its nice to be able to recover? And an extra battery is nice.

You can convert them back, too.

Turning a battery into a jigkick DOES NOT ruin it. Not only can you convert it back to normal (even the OP due to his Vader PSP being a TA-085v1), but you can use a jigkick for normal operations provided you flash multi-ipl to your memstick.

themuddaload · Mar 7, 2011

i'd like to see how you open the battery without messing up the case

xist · Mar 7, 2011

He's softmodding, you're hardmodding. I have 2 Original batteries softmodded to Jigkicks using OSPBT....they can be reverted any time i need without messing up the case.

Softmodding a battery is fine if you can do it but you can't if you don't have access to CFW in the first place....
I'd agree though that Hardmodding a battery whilst sometimes reversible is a waste of resources and pretty pointless given the prices....

themuddaload · Mar 7, 2011

But TS said he has never modded a psp before, and therefore is unlikely able to convert a battery with CFW.

I return to my previous statement: a pandora battery is worth $7

xist · Mar 7, 2011

He didn't say he didn't have any friends with CFW'd PSP's though...

And i return to my previous statement that Hardmodding a battery whilst sometimes reversible is a waste of resources and pretty pointless given the prices....
