<p>I don't know what's wrong with my psp. It turns on but the screen remains black. It happened after i was playing a game on an emulator. It froze so so I took the battery out and put it back in, since that's the only way to turn it off when it does that. After the second time it froze then it came out to what i said to begin with.</p>

Update for 5.00-M33-6 will come.
As I'm updating it anyway (for the new M33 rev) I'm also putting a few more other smaller things in I had on my mind for some time now, so it could take a few days longer :)

If you got suggestions, now would be the time to talk about them, while I got it in the editor ;)

Please help?

Hi, sorry to be a pain, im new to all this. A friend pointed me to this update.

I have a fat psp and have reset the firmware back to original 1.50 using the gta stories method. So it says "System Software Version 1.50.

I have downloaded Hellcats Recovery Flasher and put in the game folder, when I run this, I choose Target FW: 5.00. And install, then this happens

Installing firmware - PSP model: "Fat" PSP
Updater used to extract FW: 500.PBP

Unassigning falshs....
falsh2: wasn't assinged - that's OK
falsh3: wasn't assinged - that's OK
Extracting special updater .PRX....

ERROR OPENING 500.PBP! (0x80010002)
Loading uodater modules
Error 80010002 loading/starting nand_updater.prx
Error 80010002 loading/starting lfatfs_updater.prx
Error 80010002 loading/starting lfalsh_fatfmt_updater.prx

Then I can go back to the normal updater screen.

Please can someone help, so I need a Pandora battery? Or do I need a CFW 1.50. If so, how do I get these?

Again sorry to be a pain.

Ok, first make a NAND dump in Recovery Flasher incase things go wrong. Also make a Pandora Battery. Then make the MagicStick through PSP Pandora Deluxe. (Make DC8 in PSP Pandora Deluxe using the PC.) Using the Pandora Battery and MagicStick (that has Despertar del Cementerio v8 installed), you can install a fresh 5.00 M33-4 from there.

Hellcat hasn't been online for a long time, so I will help you.

Ok, here are the steps. Download Hellcat's Recovery Flasher. Then find the folder called: __SCE__rflash

Rename the folder to: RECOVERY

Then it from the Recovery Menu. Hellcat's Recovery Flasher should work then.

<p>i had the newest custom m33 firmware when i used the program. i was trying to downgrade my psp to a lower custom firmware. so i decided to use the option "install a clean version if ofw 1.50" thats what i did. after the process finished, it restarted the psp, and after it did, i believe it bricked my psp, now i cant access my recovery menu because i think i no longer have my custom firmware. is there any-way to fix my psp? ive tried eb=verything at this point, i put a pandora battery in the psp and a magic memory stick, and it still does nothing. am i doing something wrong here? is my psp dead forever?</p>

Do you have a fake memory card, that could be a reason why it has problems with games.
