    I've successful upgrade using both 2GB and 4GB MS, I don't understand why people in the net not recommend 4GB, if you are a new comer, there is no reason to purchase 1GB or even 2GB memory card nowadays.

    using a 4gig just for the magic memory stick is a complete waste. at least with a 512 or 1gig, you can keep it as a magic memory stick, and set it aside for later use.

    it's more logical to use a small memory stick and put it aside.

    I bought that battery for my psp slim and it works fine. I have no problem using that. GP2XSTORE.com was fast on there delivery.

    If your local in Los Angeles, I will do it for you.

    unfortunately, no, I'm not local :(. I'm just trying to figure out a way to get CFW on my PSP SLim.

    It seems like the best way to go is to use the datel battery, along with teh guide above, and everything should be solid?

    Buy the battery from the site and then just follow step by stem on the top of this page. I have search around from different sites and I found this guide from the first post the most valuable of all of the forums and thread out there. This guide was the best of all noobz guide. You cant go wrong with this.

    What if people only have one memory card?

    Telling them not to use 4gig memory sticks will make them think they can't do it without a 512mb or 1gig.

    I am one of the victim, I've only one MS before I purchase another 4GB, if I knew 4GB also works I wouldn't bother to purchase the 2GB in the very beginning!

    Yeah that happen when sometimes a wrong info get send out. Unfortunate that it happen and it happen often. I guess the lesson here is that make sure you read all post from different forums or post out there to make sure before doing anything.

    This is the best guide ever!!! and i mean it. i would highly highly recommend getting ur battery on ebay or somewhere else tho. u can find pandora battery on ebay for around $20-30 so its not really worth modifying the original battery u have or buying a second battery and moding it. anyway, this is the BEST and simplest guide u can ever find. THANK YOU GUYS!!!!!!

    HELP PLEASE! I get up to the same part. Then after that it just goes to the credits and says press any key to continue, then it closes the program. I never see this screen...
    Does this mean the magic memory stick wasn't installed correctly? I then put the stuff in the add-on folder into my psp, i put in the mms and then the pandora battery (by the way i hardmodded my slim battery myself) then the psp turns on with a blank screen and the wi-fi and mem stick lights are not flashing. I tried the holding the L button and ac adaptor stuff and still nothing. I have a new psp slim with 3.80 official firmware. Please help, thanks.

    Hey,
    Try using XP instead of Vista. You probably didn't format your Stick right. Go back and read pg31 on this forum. You'll be surprised on what you miss read....**hint** **Hint**

    i say it's not recommended to use a 4gig; i never said 4gig memory sticks doesn't work as a magic memory stick.

    approximately 70% will use this as a one time deal, and then format the card to get back the space, for other uses. at least with a smaller memory stick, you can just use it solely as the magic memory stick, not worrying what you have to delete off the 4gig to make space. a smaller memory stick is more efficient because you're not going to waste space; the magic memory stick will not exceed 1gig. a full install of the u.p.m.s. emerald version only uses 125mb.

    what happens when you go full brick, and don't have a separate card reader? you're screwed. and i know there are people who won't fork out the money just to buy a reader, or doesn't know anyone with a memory stick reader.


    i don't think of the one time use. i think of the longrun, efficiency use, and possible bricks in the future.
