if so... i think the only option is either get one that isn't ta88v3 or change the board :/
idk if ChickHEN works for that board :/
did some more looking, seems that ChickHEN will work with that board (and may have been developed for that very reason). I'll give it a try and hope for the best
It doesn't matter what mobo the psp has, as long as the firmware is 5.03 or lower it is compatible with ChickHEN.
So yeah, use ChickHEN and then Hellcat's Recovery Flasher or XGEN Updater, depending if you want M33 or GEN firmware.
if pandora doesn't boot, the motherboard won run 5.00m33/5.50gen firmware!! you WILL brick by installing!!
your only option is 5.03 ofw, then use chickHen, then 5.03Gen firmware enabler..yes it will not stick if you shut down, you will have to redo the chickHen tif exploit, then gen firmware enabler...but if you don't crash, shutdown, or drain the battery dead, the firmware will stay.

Tigerfan Wrote:okay, I've got a get cfw on a brand new psp-2000 in less than 24 hours, as the person I am doing this for is planning on shipping it as a birthday gift in the morning. so, I made myself a magic memory stick, grabbed my pandora battery, and tried to do what needs to be done....
however, for some reason, i can't get the pandora menu to load up on the slim, yet if I put the same memory stick and battery in my psp-1000, everything comes up as it should. so, here's 2 questions I need answered VERY SOON
1) why is my pandora battery working with my phat but not with the slim?
2) when I couldn't get my pandora battery to work, I tried something I probably shouldn't have by trying to turn the slim's battery into a pandora battery, and now I can't get it to work right. Is this fixable? (I seriously hope it is.....)
check your firmware if it is 4.01 and above it means you have a V3 Board chickhen is the only way to hack it to play games via MS.
mainly because its a simple hello world and won't benefit devs anyway.
This is about as far as hacking on the psp go will get since sony has rendered it unable to write to flash memory
Spoiler for if you don't like pandas:
RAAAAAAAAAAAAPE TIIIIME! Or the panda will get you

you've got to be kidding...If I can't install cfw on it, then the person who bought it is going to be extremely pissed at me :(
