I tried the alternative link and DC8 didn't work because it says that the data is corrupted
#702 03 Jul 2009 @ 23:36
I just retried this guide. I reformatted the memory stick 3 times before retrying and followed everything to a T

I still receive the black screen once putting the Pandora Tool battery into the PSP. I get the solid green power light, but no internet lights. I have allowed the pandora battery to sit in the charging PSP for several hours until the yellow power light turned green.

And like I said the the previous post, the alternate link (using the DC version 8) does not allow the DC to run because it says that the data is corrupted

I almost would have to say to try another memory card.

I just installed the Despertar Cementerio V8 with no problems on a Fake 16GB memory card.

Is that where you had it say 'data is corrupted'

Yes. When I go to install DC8, it has Corrupted Data under it and even after deleting it, when I try to install it, it says that the data is corrupted
#705 04 Jul 2009 @ 17:48
Well corrupted data can be caused by usb cable, try another cable if you have one.
Or USB port not working correctly, try another port
Bad or counterfeit memory card - try another memory card

Use a card reader if you have one.

You have tried numerous programs and none work, so it must be something with the memory card.

1) what exactly is a "card reader"? Like directly plugging it into the computer and working that?

2) try another USB cable?

3) the motherboard problem wouldn't be the problem creating the corrupted data, would it?
#707 04 Jul 2009 @ 19:59
Okay, I have the 5.51 Official FirmWare
#708 04 Jul 2009 @ 20:16
I just tried it on my 4gb Sandisk memory card.

"This game cannot be started. The data is corrupted"

I'm going nuts over here

BTW, can I run ChickenHen right now until I can figure out how to do the full hack? I really want to extend battery life by running the isos instead of the disks
#710 04 Jul 2009 @ 20:31
Because your on 5.50 firmware, this is the only exploit to install the chick hen
http://forums.maxconsole.net/showthread.php?t=141247

From there you can then install the 5.03 Hen

Yes a card reader is attached to your PC that reads SD, memory stick pro etc

I would just forget the dc8, seeing it doesn't work.

I would try psp grader 8, and see if that works on your sandisk 4GB, if not then I guess your stuck with the Hen for now.

So, just to recap...there is absolutely no way to reset a PSP back to factory settings and firmware?

Only using the Pandora Battery

...and apparently Pandora doesn't work yet for this firmware? I read that somewhere?

Once again, I really appreciate all of this and I will try this tomorrow afternoon and send you the results.

Yeah I was wondering that. I haven't read up much lately on newest firmwares.

By any chance, do you have any ways that can modify a PSP 2006 permanantly- meaning, when i turn off the PSP completely and turn it back on, it is still modified. ChickHEN is where you turn it off completely, we'll have to reload chickhen again. Its kinda troublesome..
Appreciate if you know some ideas.
#716 06 Jul 2009 @ 9:47
Oh, and smokey, the first link is said to be fake. Also, I don;t have either of those games.

So should I go ahead and try the ChickHen exploit even though I'm 5.51?

And I tried the PSP grader 8 on BOTH of my memory cards and the same problem: When I insert the Pandora Battery, I get a black screen with a solid green light.

I am thinking you have the TA-088 v3 mobo, because the pandora should work otherwise even if your on the OFW 5.51

Just do a search on that.

You will have to wait for an exploit on the 5.51 if there will be one.

And that first link is true

http://www.psp-hacks.com/2009/06/28/psp-...ploit-released/

But I realize its for 5.50, not 5.51

Oh, you've tested it?

How long do these exploit cracks usually take?
#720 06 Jul 2009 @ 12:46
and haven't the TA-088 v3 been cracked? I thought I read that they were like 2 months ago?

You think I can get the guys at ebay to exchange my psp for one with older firmware? If I told them it was malfunctioning or something?

You read wrong - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/709168

They will know its not malfunctioning if it isn't. But thats up too you too work out I guess.

Probably best just for you to sell this one, and purchase another one.

hello,

i was wondering if i needed any extra gear? i awlays turn up late to the forums and miss loads of info, and am going mad with backtracking.

nearly every guide ive read seems different. do i need 2 batteries, 2 psp etc. one with custom firmware.?

all i have is a fat psp with 3.80, 2 batteries, and a 1gb and 512mb pro duo.

Any help would be incredible, a bit of handholding is need methinks.

thankyou.

If that is all you have, in order to follow this guide on page 1, you will need a Pandora Battery. I say that because I don't recommend hard modding batteries. But its up too you entirely.

Then just follow each section pertaining to your psp with OFW

#724 09 Jul 2009 @ 15:12
yeah, i heard about hard modding, no chance! ill prob blow myself up. so i can just follow the guide with a normal battery and it will become a pandora??

is it easy to get the psp to 1.50 after that? also, what if it bricks. i heard something about using the battery and holding power on and the right trigger down?!?

thanks man, good to have a bit of confirmation.
#725 09 Jul 2009 @ 15:19
also, can i make a pandoras battery myself, with what i got? do i do that first. or make the stick first?

sorry, i really am noobish.
