ok

you need both memory stick and battery
datel sell pandoras batterys that will fit the slim but a fat battery would work fine aswell.after searching google for pandoras battery and magic mem stick there was tons of sites that offer them.

I wouldn't know where you could find a Pandoras Battery off the net [eBay is a good bet if anywhere]

However, let me clear up some info so you know EXACTLY how Pandora works.

"Pandoras Battery" is a battery with a specially programmed EEPROM that causes the system to load into a "Recovery Mode"-like state where you can flash back to a particular Firmware. Whether your PSP is bricked or not - its clears off your Flash and Installs it directly.

In case you're wondering, the "Magic Memory Stick" has the Recovery Software on it, which is used for the Flashing.

Hence you need both, and it Flashes Firmware onto ANY PSP System - Bricked or Not - and on any Firmware as it doesn't matter.

Good Luck.

ah man good info Sakura I'll definitely get a battery hopefully I don't' end up with a hoax.I'll order that battery and see how I downgrade works.I got to do this if I want to get any real use from my PSP.Thanks guys for the lesson and now I have a great idea of how to do this?

There are tons of guides around, heres one on EP - http://endlessparadigm.com/forum/showthr...p?tid=5941 and which uses Despertar del Cemetario and there are others around the Net.

Good luck!

cool here's a link so a sight selling a battery: http://www.darkplanets.co.uk/psp/psp-sli...attery.asp

do you think this is the real deal? it says replacement battery but will it load the system into service mode also?

that's not a pandora's battery
i found this this is what you want
http://pandora.stuncom.com/
its only EU though

edit: this is a better site
http://pandorabatt.blogspot.com/
they ship worldwide, its about the price of a game

if your going to manually make the battery i advise you use a fat battery not a slim

Yeah at least with phat you know that its easier and more stable....

man that joint is $50 + shipping is that how you guys paid for yours? thanks for the link I'll use that and keep looking.I just to make sure I'm not getting swindled on what the battery does and I don't need the 256 Mem stick unless you guys think its required I have a 4 GB already.

Most people make theirs if they have another PSP with custom firmware around their area....you could search to see if any shops will do it for you......
