Hacking PSP hacking question.

[tagzard]

Okay i have 3 questions.

1:I have a psp 100x and do i need to plug it into my laptop to hack it?
2:Can i use a 32mb card to hack it?
3:When i upgrade my card to a 8gig will it have the hack on it still.

I am running 3.11

EDIT: Can i delete the update from the game folder once it updated?

1. Yes.
2. Yes.
3. If you transfer the contents of the previous one to it, then yes.

1.Not necessarily. You can take the card out and put it in the laptop.

2.Yes, but only homebrew and emulation will fit on that tiny card.
3.If you run the 6.20 Permanent Pro hack (one of many ways, but the most recommended one)

@(read edit): Yes, if you're running the permanent version. If the temporary, keep the 'Fast Recovery' file.

I have same, son bought a psp 3000 with firmware 6.2 on it, i have a 32 meg card in it as well.. I looked at the system information and it just says firmware 6.2 .. so good to go then? I looked at the bottom of the screen and there is nothing about a 9g..

The 0xG thing only shows up after you apply the first hack (non-permanent).

Please read and follow the stickies.

3000 series isn't the same as the 1000 series. But all PSP's can use LCFW. even on firmware 6.39. But with a 32 meg card its not gonna fit games. Most good games clock in the 800 meg~1.6 gigs per game so Id suggest a 8g card.

Wut? Big =/= Good. There are many, many good games well below that threshold, although 98% of the Mini's are awful.

sorry noob here with the psp thing ..k so after i copy the PROUPDATE and FastRecovery in the psp/game/ dir i can run the fast recovery and then goto the system info and see what model number it is? I copied over the module checker to psp/game/update and just showed a corrupted file.. am i doing this right so far?

Module checker is PSP/game not psp/game/update.

 

[lost_loven]

even just in the game dir it shows corrupted file.. so where does the checker go and how to run it.. tried using the guide http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=291...t=0&start=0 but vag on the one point.

or do i use the fast recovery and look at system information after that to see model number with out having the module checker on there at all?

ok ran the update part and its a model 03g .. so i guess i am good to go for the permanent patch then right.. sorry nervous on playing with firmware updates..

if you already hacked your PSP than your system info should tell you what module you have

if you haven't hacked it yet than download this http://filetrip.net/file.php?id=25206
Just put the MCHECKER folder in your game folder

PSP/GAME/MCHECKER



edit:
Guess you already got your answer

what firmware are you on? perm patch only works on 6.20

 

[lost_loven]

i am on firmware 6.2 and its a 03g . there is a 32 MEG card in the psp.

edit: just noticed at the bottom of the psp there is a white sticker that has a bar code and at the end of the numbers
it says psp3001 ... funny that the updater works but when the permanent patch doesn't.

edit again: this is the error code - - - 80020321 - No umd in drive when no umd is disabled
