So I had my PSP exchanged by Sony due to the other one having a stuck circle button. I used my exisiting memory stick and pandora battery to flash the PSP to 3.71, it was already on 3.71 official firware when I checked. It seemed to have flashed correctly but I'm not so sure now, after it had flashed and said press x to shutdown the PSP, I went out of the room upon returning it seemed to have done some more flashing atfer the shutdown sentence.

I clicked on Network Update to update from 371m33 to the latest 4.01 M33, but all it does is download the official 4.05 firmware, which it doesn't let me install anyway as it says the memory stick could not be read (I tried three sticks).

I'm stuck on 3.71 M33 and would like to know the easiest way to get the latest CFW on the PSP. It's a PSP fat btw.

Should I reflash the PSP, or is there something else that I could do to get the thing working?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: I have it on 3.90 M33 via the manual option of installing it and made a memory stick out of it. It's updated to 3.90 M33 fine now. However, I have a fullcharged battery, but when I try to update from 3.90M33 to the latest custom firmware, it gives me a message that the battery needs to be at 75% or something before it can do it. I remember there was a button press you could do to bypass the battery message and it would update. Anyone remember what that is?

Cheers

But why did you not you just use DCv6 or DCv7 to upgrade directly to 4.01 M33-2?

I don't know what and how to use DC6 or 7. I'm a noob. I managed to flash the psp before, but couldn't remember how to do it again. If there are quicker ways to do it, I'm all ears

What's the advantage of DC?

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
