There's probably a good chance that either it's a fake or you just have a broken stick, if it won't format on either.

i have a fake 4gb. where did you buy it? i think i read somewhere that 80% of the pro duos on ebay are fakes. i havent had any probs with mine though, and i know for a fact its a fake. if you cant format it on your psp, or you pc. id almost say its toast, but wait for someone more knowledgeable to chime in.
Complete Noob...but learning
OK folks, I don't want to be flamed for asking dumbass questions...so...basically I got my first PSP yesterday with the sole intention to watch movies and play "free" games while on the bus to work.
I am familiar with iso's, bittorrent sites, firmware etc, however so that I dont screw up my PSP after a day of purchase I want to get this right first time and not end up with a "Brick".
I've trawled through tons of forums and know that DarkAlex has the 3.40OE and working on 3.50OE. His website also has the flash program and I believe the 1.5 (proof of concept)?
Now I found this tread and the instructions seem simple to upgrade to 3.40OE..:confused1:
My PSP came with 3.4, and also has the IC1003 inside the UMD. So...does this mean;
This tread looks like it is providing solutions to noobs...so really appreciate some sage advise! :biggrin:
Thanks in advance!

- I have to Downgrade to TA082?
- Can I flash to 3.4OE?
- If all I have to do is flash to 3.4OE, will I then be able to use Homebrew apps such as DevHook(?) in order to use iso files from my MemStick?
- Can I run iso files without a disk in the UMD?

Well, sorry to break it to you, but you are screwed, my friend. You have to downgrade to 1.5 before you upgrade to an OE version of a firmware, and you cannot do that on any official firmware above 3.03. I would suggest trying to trade the PSP with someone or with a business that would have FW 3.03 or lower. Also, we don't support piracy.

Judas,
I realise you've probably kicked the owning-a-PSP-experience in the ass already, due to your unfortunate experience, and that you'll probably not read this, but you can buy PSPs wherein they're specifically sold by what firmware they have. That's how I got mine, from a charming man (I presume) in Hong Kong, by looking on eBay.
'What it means is that you are stuck on official firmware 3.40 and cannot use OE firmware until someone can crack 3.40 and make a downgrader, which looks unlikely to happen any time soon, if at all!'
I'm not sure if it was intended, but that came over as quite harsh. You know, 'Hahahahah! You're screwed! Neener-neener-neener!'
Funny shit.

It just so happens....
...I've kind of decided that I still want a PSP, so I have been scanning good ole EBay, and found what I need ie PSP with 3.03OE or more firmware already setup with homebrew. :biggrin:
Gonna see how my bidding goes....
BTW...no offence taken to the comments...I prefer honest and to the point! :laugh:

Good luck with that - download yourself a copy of BayGenie to help your chances.
Incidentally, I was talking about brand-spanking-new PSPs with, say, 1.50 firewares. That's what mine was. Sure, somebody'd downgraded it from 2.71, I assume (it's a ta-082 motherboard), but other than that it hadn't been used and for all intents and purposes it was, and still is, in perfect condition.

Yes... please help me also, I am trying to update to 3.30 OE-A (from 3.30), but the result is "The game could not be started (8002014C)"

The same path.
You can go from one OE firmware to another OE without any problem.
Follow the instructions just the same using the GAME150 folder instead of the GAME folder.

Nope, you're trying to go from offical 3.30 to 3.30OE, which is impossible, sorry, if you have any official firmware over v3.03 then you're screwed, man, sorry to break it to ya, because you have to downgrade to v1.50 to go to any OE version, which there's no way to downgrade anything over v3.03. Also, please don't double-post.
You can't downgrade 3.30 yet.
But I recommend waiting a couple days, something nice is planned to be released soon xD
