============================================

LAST UPDATEs:

Revision 4b: (27.08.2008)
Small updates of the stuff that gets installed :)
- replaced DDCv6 with DDCv7
- replaced ELF-Menu v0.3 with v0.4

Revision 4a: (12.08.2008)
- added DDCv6 installation

Revision 4: (15.07.2008)
- added a new menu system for more easy navigation of all available options
(I ran out of buttons for new functions *lol*)
Usage should be a bit more easy now, less confusion....
- added option to install TimeMachine IPL to the MemStick
(the IPL is build in, not required to have it as file on the MemStick)
- added option for installing a DDC stick! ("Desparter Del Cementario", or however it's spelled ;-) )
Now you can finally make a MagicStick with this app that also works perfectly on the Slim and
installs a recent CFW! :-)
No need for any additional tools or setups.
(3.40 module extraction based on M33's PSARDumper)
- added option to modify a DDC MagicStick to launch ELF-Menu, instead of the original
DDC ressurection.elf - already presupplied with NAND-Tool (propperly set up) and the
original ressurection to be launched from the menu.
For all you maintanance needs :-)
- It now looks for the 1.50 updater under "150.PBP", no longer under "UPDATE.PBP"!
- The required updater .PBPs are checked on startup and missing ones a are noted in a warning at the bottom of the mainscreen

Key features
Prepare (repartition and format) your memstick for Pandora
(to reserve space for the MS IPL)
since revision 3 you can also choose the name after format (see below)
Make normal battery to Pandora one
Make Pandora battery to normal one
Install a full 1.50 to the memstick, including the Pandora (classic, Fat and 1.50 only)

Install DDCv6 to the memstick
Install optional tools (ELF-Menum NAND-Tool) to a DDCv4 stick, already propperly set up and ready to use
Backup current battery serial to file
Restore battery serial from file
(if trying to restore from a backupfile without one beeing present,
the default serial will simply be used instead)

This application has a major glitch. Hopefully this msg reaches Hellcat. When trying to make a Pandora Battery/Revert to Normal Battery it SIMPLY DOESNT WORK after you have used the official Pandora Battery creator and switch back and forth between them.

Hellcat

03-02-2008, 04:56 PM

Huh?
Yah, it reached him.... so you used the original Battery Creator and then wanted to revert to battery with this?

I'll try that, however the has nothing to do with the other.... weird....

[EDIT]
Just tried:
Hopped into 1.50, used the original Battery tool, hopped back to 3.90-M33 and used this one.
All went fine....

03-02-2008, 06:52 PM

hmm Hellcat ... i dont know exactly what i did but all i know is that at the moment on my PSP it does not create a pandora battery, it says that it did but infact did not. But the official pandora creator still works ... maybe its jsut a glitch on mine

I converted my battery on my phat to pandora and tried to convert it back to normal and it froze up on exit.Tried it again and it still froze up but it did convert the battery back to normal.And I'm on 390M33-2..

I converted my slim,bought it this weekend..love it,to pandora and back to normal without a hitch.372-->(DC4)380M33-5--->390M33-2.

03-24-2008, 05:56 PM

Toppers..I tried to use the Nand dump option and it hung up at the dumping....screen.I had to reboot and the MS led was off when I did.It rebooted just fine but I connected to my pc via USB to see if the dump was successful and to my surprise there were only 3 files on it.Two weird files with Japanese names and one file that was just labeled as 3.91GB..I tried opening the first two files and Vista reported that the syntax labels or was it volumes was incorrect and wouldn't proceed.I freaked out needless to say,I had alot of stuff on my stick that was and is gone forever..

I then had no choice but to format the stick and start over..and my battery was a Pandora at the time..I formatted in the XMB,connected to USB,copied and ran Panxxrev3b and like an idiot reformatted the stick for Pandora and chose the reboot option.I don't have to tell you what happened next..to top it off I had just sold my Phat and the wall charger that I had since I was using the USB charge in my slim more anyway..I finally went to Walmart at like 2am and bought a new one,powered it with that loaded the XMB then put the battery back in,booted up the Panxxrev3b again and converted my battery back to normal..whew...................................... ...............................................clo se call,and I feel like an idiot..Can I safely go back to Pandora on my slim? I'm assuming yes since I don't have the TA-85v2 mb,I want to because I happen to like the extra security it provides(380M33-5 recovery via DC4) and for the TM..

But what happened? I'm afraid to try the Nand dump again,but I've heard alot that it's a good idea to do..any feedback? X3? Hellcat????

07-15-2008, 10:12 AM

When I load this. I can see that I do not have 380.pbp installed. However the reason for that being is because I am currently using 3.90pbp instead.
Does this app not detect the latest in sony (offical) firmwares?

Hellcat

07-15-2008, 11:04 AM

It needs the 380.PBP for the DDC installation, has nothing to do with the FW you are currently running.
The 380.PBP is actually used (only) by the installed DDC to install 3.80(-M33).

Kwipper

Ahh okay. I'll download 380.PBP then.

Hi Hellcat,

I have made a MMS (with TM/DCv5) using the instructions given by x3sphere in the Universal Unbricker tutorial. I would like try the 3.XXR4 with the Elf/Nandtool capability.

Could I replaced the 380.pbp with the 390.pbp instead (the additional files needed), so that DDC will install 390M33 instead ?? Or is it that the DDC by default in the 3.XXR4 is v4 ?

There is a nand dump option in the DC. Nand could also be dumped using the nandtool. Is there any difference between the two ?

If I dumped nand using DC, could I write it back using the nandtool ?

Thk u very much for your advice !

Hellcat

07-25-2008, 01:47 PM

Hi!

The DDC that comes with the Pandora Installer always installs 3.80-M33.
If the dumps DDC <=> Nand-Tool are interchangeble.... honestly, I never tried.... don't know :)

I Know it was released litterally years ago. But MS MasteR was written for just this reason, I highly suggest you look into it. If you had already you would have a backup of your MS now.

PS MS MASTER only works on xp. I wrote it for people (like me) who insist on testing every thing that comes out. Its a good policy to test peoples applications, But even though all of the DEVs strive to make their code bug free, loss of something like MS data is an acceptable loss, mainly because it is so easily avoided.

Sorry for your loss of data bud, Please be more carefull to back up data before testing applications.

PS ever since idstorage... if its possible to back data up b4 running a patcher (just about every thing has a backup option for things that are not more easily maintained by the user, ie nand backups) I always do. Coding a backup utility takes time and effort and the devs wouldnt make it if they didnt think there was a reason to use it. We try to minimize the risk involved 50% of that is good testing, good code, the other 50% of it is following directions, and backing up your files (weather in the MS, or backing up bin files.) so if something goes wrong , and we all know from time to time it does, we give our selves (and the devs helping us ) the greatest chances of recovery.

Many of the Slim units being sold today are still TA-088 v2, which works with DC6. You might never be able to use Pandora on a TA-088 v3. From the looks of it they totally blocked the battery exploit.

hey hellcat, can you please temme abt this situation i m facing
i want to knw whether the new version directly intalls DDCv6 without the need of puttin all the official firmware files like 3.90.pbp etc....
Can you plz temme abt this...coz if we don have to put the files..is it tat we can directly install DDCv6 into the memory card without the need of downloadin the offical firmwares...
If you only want to install DDCv6 and nothing else, all you need it the Installer itself and the 401.PBP, you don't need anything else.

I'll see that I make the readme a bit more detailed on this for the next release :)

Hellcat

08-17-2008, 07:45 PM

It's the third, if memory servers well.... the last one of the Pandora install options ("Install Classic Pandora....")

You only need it, if you want it....
For a DDCv4 or DDCv6 install you don't need it, every function takes care of everything it needs, not necessary to run one of the others before (except the additional tools, they require a set up DDCv4)

Have been to lazy to repack the source as well, there didn't really change a thing in 4b!

Hello Hellcat,
I have a problem with my TA-086 FAT PSP.
I'm on 1.50 and can only upgrade till 3.52 M33-4.
When I upgrade after that, it installs 3.71M33 or 4.01M33 using the SCE updater and in the end where it says press X to reboot it just shuts down and I come up with a brick.
I can, however, go back to 1.50 using pandora. But when I install Pandora Installer For 3.X Kernel Revision 4 and try to startup DDCv6 holding the "DOWN" button..... the green Power led turns on and immediately off. I just can't get it to work.
Please help me.

If I should understand this as a question, the answer would be "Yes" - as long as you don't have a 85v2 or newer mainboard....

Hi Hellcat,

Also I need to know if i can use a sony magicgate 8gb memory stick pro duo.
A stick with DDCv4 + Tools + DDCv7 can be easiely made:
- Install DDCv4
- Install DDCv4 additional tools
- exit and restart Pandora Installer
- Install DDCv7
- make battery Pandora

Done :)

But when I install Pandora Installer For 3.X Kernel Revision 4 and try to startup DDCv6 holding the "DOWN" button..... the green Power led turns on and immediately off. I just can't get it to work.
(re)download Rev4b and reinstall DDC (v7, in this case).

The rest of your problems seems to be a corrupted idstorage.... maybe you wanna check that....

Pan3xx has been released in French ( check it out at QJ.net)

but can someone make Pan3xx R4b in Russian?

Theres an English and French one, but someone should add Spanish, Russian, German. and Italian as languages to Pan3xx.

That way people form other countries can enjoy modding their PSP without a problem.

Of course that dev/translator would need permission from Hellcat first in order to modify the app.

Hi :)

You can't use the Slim battery in a Fat, but you CAN use a Fat battery in a Slim!

So, you can use your Fat PSP to make a complete Pandora Set (I'd suggest installing DDCv7) and then use that to flash your Slim PSP :)

Nameless105

09-01-2008, 03:34 PM

I used your software and didn't see a DDCv7 I only saw v6 as the highest. Thank you for your advice tho about using the phat battery as the conduit for the slim but I screwed up my phat battery when I hard modded it for pandora some time ago. I tried to fix it but failed and actually done something strange, when I place it in the Phat PSP it all the lights come on and it does nothing, when I place it in the Slim the green light flashes and then nothing. But something even more strange has happened as of last night, by using your program I have inadvertently sorta fixed my battery, but only when I have my Memory Stick in. But still no luck with the Slim, do you have any advice on possibly getting it fixed for my slim to use?

Hellcat

09-02-2008, 02:44 AM

Download the latest Rev4b, that has DDCv7, 4a only has DDCv6.

What you describe sounds like you already have at least the TM (DDC5+) IPL on your stick, most probably even the complete DDC.

When putting the battery in the Slim, press and hold "Down" before and while inserting the battery.

Where do I get the Rev4b? The link up top is to 4a. And this will work for my PSP slim 4.05 OFW correct? I don't want to brick it.

The link in post #1 goes to Rev4b.

You can flash a 4.05 PSP with a created DDC Pandora set, but you can't run this tool on OFW.

AFAIK DDCs up to v4 can't be used at the same stick at once, as they use the same files in the same folders, i.e. one overwrites the other.

Thanks Hellcat, now i have a magic memory stick with DCv4+Tools, DCv5 (that I added manually), DCv7. Now i'm wondering if you could tell me how to manually add DCv3. I want to make a magic memory stick with this four DDC.

this is what i did. takes time
1.install DDCv7 with Hellcats installer
2.install 1.5 pandora with the same installer
3.install DDCv3 manually with DAX's files
4.install DDCv7 again with Hellcat's installer.

Noob free. But wastes time.

the current GUI is ok.

but Hellcat, can you make a Pan3xx that uses VLF GUI (like DC7 by Dark_Alex) + Intrafont?

but thats just a suggestion question. :smile:

anyways, this app is good enough anyways because of what it can do, and you dont have to waste your time making a new GUI :biggrin:

I'm still a bit of a noob. I formatted my stick using the new v4b installer, then I copied all four firmwares in addition to the new v4b installer and ran through in the sequence you show below. My question is:

When booting with the down button held in and Pandora battery inserted, I get the menu system as expected. But when you install as below, how is it different than just doing the DC7? And what are these DDCv4 tools?

I'm probably making it more than it really is. But this is an excellent recovery tool and I appreciate everyones work! :biggrin:

Kudos!

If I should understand this as a question, the answer would be "Yes" - as long as you don't have a 85v2 or newer mainboard....

A stick with DDCv4 + Tools + DDCv7 can be easiely made:
- Install DDCv4
- Install DDCv4 additional tools
- exit and restart Pandora Installer
- Install DDCv7
- make battery Pandora

Done :)

When you install as the quote you quoted, you can boot DDCv7 with DOWN and DDCv4 with UP, so you have BOTH on the same stick, bootable by choice.

The DDCv4 additional tools are some things that make maintanance on the PSP more easy, just try them out and you'll see :)

I have a question and am hoping to get an answer. A Pandora battery, to my knowledge, shouldn't be able to boot a psp normally, however, I find that after using this utility, I can still boot my psp normally, when my battery is pandorized, with the 0xffffffff serial. I have a TA-81 with the original 1.1 battery, and I am running 4.1 M33-2. I only have experience with hard moded batteries, but I am pretty sure that this should not be so. Anyone know why It boots as if it was a normal battery?
