pull out your pandora battery and stick and get cracking

Btw: Why do you need to downgrade, the plugin should work fine on 6.20

Should work fine on 6.20. Also why not B10?

i agreed with the guy to give him my old psp1000 for a new 3000 because of my emus, plugins and portals, he wants psp3d to work and it doesn't work very well on my current fw while it worked perfectly on the old prome, it black screens me on some games (kh bbs fm for ex) and doesn't work and overlags.
psp3d started becoming unusable when i got into 6.xx cfw

i modified my version.txt and it accepted to update but i won't press x until i get confirmation from here

 

[Ace Overclocked]

also i should point out that i have the latest version (2.2), so is there any alternative, i need to be swift because i will trade tomorrow

Alternative to what? Confirmation for what?

confirmation to downgrade, alternative to get psp3d to work exept for downgrading

Well you've already made up your mind....putting him on a rubbish firmware which can't easily access the PSN seems rather pointless. PSP 3D is on 2.21 and works on PRO. If you want to downgrade to a firmware i'd never inflict upon anyone, especially not a user unfamiliar with CFW then go ahead.

actually i'm pretty familiar with cfw, but yes psp3d works on pro but, it lags more than on 5.50, cannot access a flots of games when on 6.20 (no bbs, almost ni dissidia which didn't work before but is unplayable now, most games get a blue screen/blackscreen/crash anyway), unless it works perfectly on 6.20 pro b10 it will be pointless for this guy who doesn't even know psn and only cares about stuff he can't get with cfw...
i'm trying pro b10 before going back to the old prome
edit:his psp is 6.60, can i downgrade to 6.20 when i get it (i personally use 6.20 pro, it's much better i know, but if psp3d won't work for him it'll break the deal)

 

[Ace Overclocked]

tried dissidia 012 in pro b10 overlag as always

actually i'm pretty familiar with cfw,

I was talking about your friend....

okay
so i shall hellcat this to 5.00 m33-6 the i'll gen-d3 it and prome it

Why not just leave it on M33? At this point in the game neither a 5.00 or 5.50 CFW will play all the latest games, nor natively access the PSN.

he will want to play dissidia 012/bbs at maximum so i should probably do prome, it's more efficent exept for psx virtualization, or does m33 have dissidia support
also it seems psn lover still does its job

edit: also i'd like to thank you for now and before, i owe everything i know about cfw to you and my psp wouldn't have been succesfully modded if it wasn't for your help in 2010

5.50 firmwares are less efficient in every regard than 5.00 M33 apart from an increase in native game compatibility.

It's difficult to advise one way or another as without knowing your friend it's impossible to know how likely it is he'll have problems. Sooner or later he's bound to if he's using something that outdated, so it'd be better if you put him on something you're more comfortable helping him with.

Uhm... it's a PSP-1000. Literally nothing is standing in the way of 6.60Pro B10fix1, the *latest* and *best* CFW out there. If PSP3D has issues on it then it's due to a crappy MSPD, not due to the firmware. Besides, how big is this plugin anyways? You can install it on FLASH if it has loading issues on a slow stick.

is it because of the ms?
issues never happened before updating to 6.20
and how can i put it on flash?

And this is why being familiar with CFW and being familiar with CFW are two entirely different things. How about you speed test that MS?

I'm assuming it *is* a problem with the stick because I had that issue with POPS Loader. Using one of the adapters I bought with one SD card boots it normally, using the same adapter with two doesn't because the adapter is likely fake, using it with a Sony MSPD works normally aswell. Speed Test gives relatively the same results on all three setups, it's the *lag between dedecting the card in the slot and actual readout* that causes this. I double-checked it by resetting VSH with an already detected adapter and plugins that did not work... magically worked. So yes, it could be the MSPD, especially in the case of adapter use. Unfortunatelly I still need to have a single-SD setup for POPS as it's rather big and the dual-SD mode on the fake adapter just doesn't seem to cut it. I need to buy another batch of those, I gave the genuine one to my girlfriend. Or... just put my PSX games on the Sony card...

This is my recommendation - boot the PSP, let it detect your stick, reset VSH from Recovery Menu and try again.
