Hello guys,

First of all i think you are doing a great job here, i found out a lot of things that are really really helpful.
Now don't think i did not do my best to understand from all you guides but i have 1 ton of questions... here i go...

1) Do i need to buy additional hardware besides my psp ?
2) Can 1 man unassisted by another with a psp mod his own psp to work on backed up games ?
3) By making my battery into a "pandora" with any of the 2 methods make it unusable ?.. i mean... do i only use pandora to modify or is it the "full-time" battery ?... so will i use the pandora or wood i be forced to buy another ?
4) What am i loosing by moding my psp ? (features etc..) and what am i wining ?
5) Are the 2 battery's from the slim and the phat compatible ?... i mean... wood a slim battery work on a phat and vice-versa ?
6) what does pandora actualy do ?...
7) Wich are the firmware version that wood be best for Slim and why ?... same for the phat...

There are only a few of my questions ... i have many more...

Let's see..
1. Not at all
2. Yes, unless it requires pandora, but even then you might not need antoher person
3. Hardmodded pandora's (opening the battery to make it) cannot be used normally unless you can reconnect the pin, softmodded i think can be reverted back to normal
4. Nothing at all. WIth custom firmware you get everything the original sony firmware has plus homebrew capability and isos, emus, etc
5. I'm not too sure on this one, but i believe yes they are.
6. Pandora lets the psp go into service mode by sending a signature to the psp that reads 0xFFFFFF (or something like that), and by doing so lets the user upgrade, downgrade, do whatever even to a bricked psp
7. Best firmware is 3.52 M33-4 (in my opinion), but you'll want a phat psp because slim's d not have the 1.50 kernel

Good info there, I guess I'll chime with a question of my own here if you don't mind NightFox.

What does the 1.50 kernel do?
