Okay, so im thinking in purchasing a PSP... every PSP that i see in retail stores are PSP 3000's... and i dont know in which firmware these are... so... i want to play lastest games like final fantasy and such... and i want to softmod it ofcourse... so now the questions: can i play online with CFW? what are the risks of softmodding it? what are the chances of bricking? if it bricks or semi-bricks is it recoverable? even a full brick? if so how can i do to recover it? i'd be thankful if someone can answer my questions
1 - Maybe. You could before PSN went down, but we don't know if they'll beef up the protection when it comes back up. 2 - The softmod installer has a test function you can use to see if it'll work or not. If it fails simply reset the PSP's power to fix it. 3 - There's a chance of a brick if you don't read the instructions. If you read and follow the instructions and do the test, there's a very small brick chance. 4 - If it semi-bricks, it's recoverable through 2-3 different methods. 5 - If it full bricks it's dead. The 3000 cannot use a pandora to fix a full brick.
and how can a full brick occur? :S i want to get one... but if a full brick isnt recoverable... im getting afraid of softmodding it...
If you're scared of full-bricking it, buy a used 2000 that's fully-hackable so you can use a pandora to fix the brick.
