Look closely, it says MADE IN JAPAN.

I clearly stated that the ones made in CHINA can not be pandora'd.

alright, well im pretty sure he never says that HIS battery is made in china

also, prolly should have asked this b4, when did u get ur slim, and wat type is it??

I pandorize the battery i brought from Target (officially Sony battery) but the back it said made in china. The one that come w/ my psp-2001 Piano black said Made in Japan. After following various guides i pandorized the battery. According to this post battery made in China are not pandorizable. The one i mod seem to work... i put it in the PSP and the power light come on by itself and the screen is black. Made my mms with various tools too but cant seem to get the setup to work.

Put in the mms, hold L, put in the battery - power light come on, no memory stick or wireless light, screen still black.

What exactly happen when try to mod the PSP with TA88v3 mobo? Does it stop half way or the nothing happen? I dont know if mine is a TA88v3 or not so i'm just trying to find out. Thanks

I GOT A SLIM TODAY THAT I CANT HACK ,COME TO FIND OUT THAT IT HAS THE TA88v3 IN IT . DONT FEEL BAD YOU CANT WIN THEM ALL .I MOD PROBABLY 15 PSPs A WEEK . BASICLY IF YOU KNOW THE MEMORY CARD SLOT WORKS AND THE L TRIGGER WORKS THEN THE PSP HAS A TA88v3 IN IT .IF YOU PURCHASED THE PSP WITH THE WARRANTY THEN RETURN IT OR SELL IT ON EBAY.. GO TO GAMESTOP PICK UP A USED SLIM FOR 139.99 THEY OFFER A 30 DAY WARRANTY AND A NO HASSLE RETURN POLICY .SEE IF YOU CAN HACK IT IF IT TAKES GOOD ,IF IT DOESN`T RETURN IT AND GET ANOTHER ONE ,AND KEEP DOING IT UNTIL YOU GET ONE THAT CAN BE HACKED.

I totally agree with you Gameguy1. That's the best method to go about getting a modded PSP. I bought a PSP online that ended up having a TA88-v3 inside and couldn't return it. It was my first PSP modding experience, and it was NOT A GOOD ONE. Had similar experience to Amblin - modded battery doesn't work as a pandora; stays regular. Turned out I had both a non-moddable battery, and a non-moddable PSP (ta88v3 as stated above). I wonder how they changed the chip layout in the new batteries.... Perhaps they started making the chip that reads the serial key have a different pin layout. Sounds like more people are getting this combo!

Bad bad bad... Sony just won't give up will it. Well.... We just have to wait for Dark_Alex or the Chinese to make some uber awesome moves hehehe. Then we be good to go!

edit: Oh, also, don't forget the limited edition PSPs that are gauranteed to have certain Mobos and bats! I bought a limited edition Daxter PSP and everything worked like a dream (well, my dreams kind-of suck, so better than a dream). Daxter PSPs can be bought on Newegg still I believe for $200, and come with a mem-stick and a game+a few family guy episodes =)
