    Get a Pandoras Battery and MMS. Use them to upgrade to CF. Once you have CF you can do pretty much whatever you want.

    you can also find someone on this site to make a pandora battery for you. and if youd like a magic memory stick. you just may have to pay a fee whether a service fee or shipping fee. it would be worth it though

    He is running 2.82 firmware, which means that he has more options to downgrade. Can you by any chance get your hands on a GTA Vice City or a Lumines UMD game? If not, then Pandora is your best choice.

    IMO, a pandora would be better just in case he wants to experiment with more than just emulators he can use different CFWs

    Well you need CF to be able to play backed up games, homebrew, and other cool stuff. To get CF you are going to need a Pandoras Battery and MMS.

    Lol, I don't think we can help you then. Don't download stuff without paying, that's piracy and discouraged on this forum.

    i think they mean like downgraders you get off the internet so you can downgrade via usb like this:

    go here and create an acc. then download the on whichever fits your description and since you said u are on 2.82, i suggest you go to the downloads page on this site and get the 3.03 ofw and install, then downgrade.

    No no, I dont want to do it illegally- Homebrew is legal, right?
    So explain this to me a bit more indepth. I need a battery or a video game to downgrade my system, but there is a program that does it too?
    What is the danger of doing this?

    you can downgrade with a battery...but with your situation it would be easier to do it with a copy of grand theft auto liberty city stories. here's how it works: when loading up grand theft auto on the psp it is possible to pick a hacked save game file that will allow the booting of unsigned code temporarily...at this time you boot up a downgrader and get to ver. 1.5. So you need a copy of gta and the 3.03 downgrader...google that and get back to us if you don't understand.
    Trust me, if I could make love to my PSP...I would...
