been waiting for this thanx so much . . .
Cool guide here, I'm now installing it (It's way too long).
Just asking,
I've wanted to update to 3.80 M33, but when I try the Original 3.80 M33 on the Dark_Alex site, It gave me an error.
So, I went to get a KeyCleaner and then found out that my Motherboard could not be determined from idStorage. After much asking, people say my keys have been corrupted/wrong, and they recommended me to this page.
So.. I still can update my M33 next time when a new version comes out right ?
Does this programs fix my corrupted keys ?
And I can still use OTHER memory cards for other games right ?
-----
Anyway, I found out that my Mac address is gone(I mean it's not on the 'System Information' page and I can't connect to other PSPs using wlan) I tried Mac address fixer but they give me another error, any help please ?

With Pandora, Yes you may upgrade
The only fixable key now is key44 (Mac address), so it's impossible unless you get hold of a clean set of keys.
Sure, the memory stick doesn't matter.

I said it in another thread.
you can't just "fix" it, you'll need to overwrite some of it with a clean set.

The first thing is, you'll need to find a clean set of keys around the web (it's illegal so i can't help you on that.
Afterwards, download "IDStorage Manager v1.3"(in the development subforum), put all the keys in EXCEPT keys 0x44 0x50 ,0x100~0x106, 0x200~0x206, 0x140 in to a folder called "keys", and copy it in to the IDSM v1.3 folder.
Run IDSM v1.3 on the PSP, and choose to overwrite the keys.
Volia!

I think your UPDATE.PBP is incorrectly named. Try renaming it to just UPDATE... you probably have hide file extensions on, so it's hiding the .PBP part.

May i know that after making the magic card, how do format it back to a normal MS? As there is a partition made inside there.
Is it just format it through the PSP or from PC?

Actually, keep the things there.
Only the first few bytes are re-partitioned. You may still use the memory stick like normal.

What is the use of the first 250kb?

It should work... I don't believe anyone has tested it on 3.90 M33 yet though. But there is really no reason it shouldn't work.
So everything else worked fine? In that case, do you have a Slim PSP or regular? A regular PSP with the 1.5 kernel add-on installed should be able to run the original Pandora's battery creator.
Download it here, and copy the two folders inside the battery folder to GAME150: http://exophase.com/files/psp/pandora.zip
Make sure you backup your battery eeprom before converting, so you can use this program again once on 3.80 M33-5 to convert it back to normal.
