This guide has had some problems running on 3.90 m33-2 and did not work for me. it paused in step 10. I recommend not doing this on 3.90 m33

THIS GUIDE IS FOR A PSP ON A 3.xx CFW OR HIGHER ONLY


Pandora Guide

1) Download the pan3xx.rar and extract it (it's passoword is http://www.teamxdesigns.downthe.net/forum/index.php)
2) Put your PSP in USB mode (connect your cable and select USB)
3) Go to this location on your PSP:
PSP/GAME
4) copy the pan3xx file downloaded (once extraced) to the game folder
5) Now copy everything you want to keep to your desktop as it will soon be deleted (including game saves!!!!!)
6) Exit USB mode and on your psp scroll across to game, then down to memory stick and click X
7) Find the pan3xx application and press X on it
8) Now you are in the pandora creating menu for 3.xx
9) Now the next step will delete everything form your memory stick, but this is needs to be done
10) Press R + X then L + R + X to confirm.
11) Once this is done, reboot
12) Enter USB mode again(same as step 2)
13) There will be no files at all on your psp
14) Right click, go down to new and select FOLDER
15) Name this folder PSP
16) Don't go inside just yet
17) Remember those official firmwares you downloaded? find the official 1.50 one
18) If it isn't already named this, re-name it to UPDATE.PBP and paste it into your memory stick NEXT TO THE PSP FILE, NOT IN IT!
19) Now, find the orignal copy again and rename it to 150.PBP and paste it in the same spot
20) You should now we looking at a PSP folder, an UPDATE.PBP file and a 150.PBP file all at once
21) Find the official 3.71 file and rename it to 371.PBP and paste it in the same spot
22) Find the official 3.40 file and rename it to 340.pbp and paste it in the same spot
23) Now, double click to go inside the PSP folder
24) Make a new folder called GAME
25) Copy pan3xx into there again
26) Exit USB mode
27) Run the Application (look at step 6 and 7 for details again)
28) This time, press X
29) When that is done, press L + X
30) Reboot the PSP
31) Run the App again
32) Put the battery you want to pandorise in and press circle (This DOES work with a slim battery, i have done it myself)
33) Reboot your PSP
34) Enter USB mode again
35) Go to PSP/GAME
36) Find the version of despertar cementerio you downloaded and copy it to PSP/GAME
37) If you are using despertar cementerio V4, then you must download the official 3.80 Firmware, rename it to 380.PBP and put it next to the PSP file with the other firmware files
38) Exit USB mode then run the application (under GAME>MEMORY STICK)
39) Follow the Prompts
40) You now have a 100% working pandora that will install to either 3.71 m33-2 or 3.80 m33-5 (depending on what version of despertar cementerio you used)

yeah, i wrote it awhile ago, it's realy easy now though. You can make the mem stick on PC with lots of programs that are very easy to use and modding the battery is easy, you just need the app

You need a 3.xx kernel custom firmware or higher and kernel mode set to 3.xx in recovery for this program to launch.

Check firmware version from the XMB menu Settings > System Settings > System Information. If it's just a number in the System Software field then you do NOT have custom firmware.

i don't know this for sure, but i heard that it charges in a phat, and runs a phat, but can't turn a phat on.

then others i heard couldn't even get it to fit because of some tabs.

I would try it in your friends psp. If you can turn your friends PSP on with the slim battery, it will work. if not i don't think it will

So does the slim battery fit in the phat psp?
So if i put the battery and the memorystick in his psp. i hold D-UP whilst booting andthen it will enter the pandora menu.

yeah, the majority of the guide is about making the magic memory stick. If you want to do that, i suggest using the time machine too. it means that you can still use the battery as a normal battery

and when you hole up whilst booting it goes to the pandora (works like recovery does when you boot and hole R, but with up on the D-Pad)
