3.30 OE-A to Newest Custom Firmware

[Gtyza]

Hey Guys ,

I recently purchased a 2nd hand Phat PSP with 3.30 OE-A custom firmware on it and would like to upgrade it to the best current firmware.

I am however a total noob and after looking for a thread I understand has just not happened.

Would anyone of you kind people mind giving me a sort of step by step , any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks !
