I downgraded it with my pandoras battery to 1.5, then sony v2.0, back to full sony 1.5 with MPH downgrader,then up to 3.52 M33 then M33-4.
I tried the key cleaner to see what was what, and it states PSP is a TA-079/81. Keystate Unpatched PSP. Keys check as fine, recommended action none.

Key 0008 it shows...No key.

All other functions work ok, its just that the umd wont show in the XMB.

I have a white psp so I ran the key cleaner on that one as its the same motherboard and the keys are exactly the same state as the one above, but the white one the umd works just fine...

What do you reckon I do next?

They are both on 3.52 M33-4.

you already done all the necessary things to fix your ID STORAGE it seems that you have to change your UMD LENS and post result here.

or BACKUP the NAND_DUMP.BIN of your white psp then flash it to your other psp using pandora but the risk is very high that would be your last resort, but if you done it and it works you will now have the same MAC ADDRESS

1.I have besides my original battery , a pandora battery an a

magic stick
Using pandora battery , i've downgraded/upgraded back to

3.71 or 3.71 m33-2
TO upgrade to 3.71-m33 i've had to place the firmware to

\game\recovery and run it from recovery menu. It 's the only

way that works.
For example now I have 3.71 m33-4 , but that it does not

helping me at all . from game menu --memory stick , i cannot

acces , run , anything , and my mac address dissapeared

I/ve run key cleaner , again , i've run it from recovery

, it works , and i've got this messages

checking id storage key ....no key

unrecognized key state

It still does not worked for me .

Last thing , i've tried to put from recovery menu ---region

free ...it does not working..

Any ideas?

Thank you.

it means that your ID STORAGE IS CORRUPTED be thankful that your psp still working. the patching of the KEY 5 which is your ID STORAGE fail while updating. i suggest do a HEX EDITING ON KEY 5 but the problem is you don't have the backup so we can't figure out what values should put on to it.

if backup your NANDUMP.BIN you can restore it back but it's very risky that would be your last resort.
