Question about Pandora and MMS

[Sitrane]

Hey everyone!

Quick question!

I just ordered my Pandora battery from Codejunkies.com and was wondering a quick thing about MMS and usage.

1. What size Memory Card would you guys recommend for turning into an MMS? I have a SanDisk 2gig card that has never even been open yet.

2. Once formatted and used to install the custom firmware, can it still be used normally?

3. If I swap out my Pandora Battery for my normal one, will it go back to working normally? Like as if I had never put the custom firmware on? Basically I wanna know if my normal battery would be used to play normal games and my Pandora for all my homebrew stuff.

Im basically looking at this as a quick fix. Pop in normal battery and Memory card for normal gaming (MHF2 FTW!) and then use Pandora and MMS for Homebrew gaming. I apologize if this information is posted elseware, but I couldn't find the exact answers I was looking for. THX!

You can use the MS you already have. After you install your CF reformat your MS and it will be back to normal. You can't use your Pandoras Battery to play games. You only use the battery to unbrick or install CF. Once you are done put your normal battery in and it will work like a psp with CF on it.

i cant use my original card, it has game saves on it, plus you cant copy Monster Hunter Freedom 2 data from one memory card to another. (You play with other people online, so they dont want you to cheat.)

So the 2g SanDisk would work for installing right? There are mixed feelings about SanDisk cards here...just want to make sure.

it will work. I personally would recommend tho getting a 1 gig card or smaller and keeping it around as a mms just in case you brick your psp later.

What are the odds of bricking my PSP and how difficult is it to fix generally? Sorry if this is posted somewhere on the forums, Im in class currently and I shouldnt even be typing this much lol.

Chances of bricking aren't very high if you just follow directions. If it does brick it is very easy to fix with a Pandoras Battery.
