3 quick questions
« on: January 11, 2008, 03:06:06 AM »
couple of quick questions...

just how safe is using the pandora battery to downgrade? i mean if i don't get the mem card right first time for example is it just that the downgrader won't work or can i knacker things up completly?

also in the tut by kenshiffix am i understanding right the battery mod is all software-no need to open the battery?

last one -is the pandora battery for all fw or just for above 3.50

thanks-i did serch but i couldn't find any clear cut answers(well i'm a bit hesitant with these things)

cheers

you don't need to open the battery but you can open it and solder some pins to get the psp to service mod

well so far at least but if sony plans to realese a unpandorable psp/fw as some predict then a new downgrader will have to be created.

I thought that the Pandora battery uses a hardware "loophole" so to speak in order to work, so a firmware change shouldn't be enough to make it Pandora-proof.

cheers for the info.... :clap: now just 2 more Q's that i've come with since those two.

will kenshiffix's pandora work on slim an phat.....or just the phat-if so is there a universal pandora yet?

an once downgraded to 1.50 do i just upgrade through the custom fw till i'm back up to 3.80m33 like my current phat.

p.s reason i ask about the slim is cause i've been offered one at a very good price...but several clueless mates need phats sorted


thanks again

- pandora, is the safest downgrader/ only for OFW 3.5x+, possible to screw things up, but only if you really have no clue what your doing, other than that no
- yes, kens tut is all software, nothing to do with the battery
- so far, pandora has/does work[ed] on every firmware

- kens tut here in the phat section is only for the phat, but im pretty sure there is a different one for the slim
- i think there is a "universal" pandora coming out also
- yes, once you get down to the 1.5 all you have to do is update to the CFW that you want
