    Thanks man.

    This thread is very good for newbies with no idea how to downgrade, this is going to reduce the number of downgrading help threads a lot.
    Good work
    Keep it up

    Not sure what you mean there-you asked for the recovery file right? The recovery file will do just that, recover your psp to 1.50 in case you have problems with your custom firmware (ie: semi-brick)

    I am wanting to sell my psp. I had it at 3.30-oea, i am wanting to update it to the update from sony. I downgraded to 1.5 thinking it would be safer to update it but i downloaded the eboot from sony and when i ran the 3.71 update it said "the system configuration of this PSP system does not appear to be correct. the update cannot be completed. Contact technical support for assistance." Is there any way i can get the PSP in selling firmware? I dont want to sell with a custom firmware. Any help would be great. I do have a TA-082.

    You would actually fetch more money if you sold it with a custom firmware installed-

    It sounds like you have corrupted keys in your idstorage because of having the TA-082 motherboard-I am not sure which method you used to downgrade your psp initially, but thats whats preventing you from updating to official firmware...Try running Chilly Willy's KeyCleaner to fix your registry...

    dEEz_nUtz, edit your sig to conform to forum specs ASAP. yours is 602x143 pixels.
    2. An image-only signature should be less than 50kb in size, and be at most 500 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall.

    Why not eBay? Because it has custom firmware? I have seen loads of PSP's for sale with custom firmware-and they sell for a lot.

    Otherwise you could try craigslist, or a similar online classifieds.

    Selling a PSP with custom firmware does not violate ebay's policy on the selling of "piracy enabling devices". Firmware is software only, and as such is not considered a "device". Selling a PSP with a modchip (a physical device) would violate the policy and thus they would cancel the auction. PSP's are special in this way, as most other consoles/systems require some sort of physical mod and are banned from being mentioned (not sold) on ebay. So happy selling!

    Since you have a slim-You will need someone with a pandora battery/memory stick to enlighten your PSP...
    Unless you have a fat psp with custom firmware, you can make your own..But, you need a pandora to enable your slim to play downloaded games..

    How does Sony know you have been using Custom Firmware when you could revert back to original firmware?

    Follow the guide found HERE:

    And as far as your pspblender goes, two words: Bit Torrent-
    There, I just saved you $37, now use that to buy yourself a decent memory stick to load up with some ill-gotten games...

    Newbie here,
    Do I follow the same instructions for the firmware updates(And downgrades) to work on the red "God Of War" version of the PSP? I just got it as a gift and want to know if I can mod it.
    Thanks
