My poor PSP 1000 (which has seen me through homebrew adventures for years) has developed a problem where the analog stick is moving on its own. And another one where the battery cuts out at the slightest jostling, but I think that's the cheapo battery I bought online that's slightly too big to fit.

PSP saves are encrypted, but just encrypted in general and not to a specific account or hardware or anything. You can transfer them all you like unless the game adds its own encryption or locks.

dis astranagant posted:Most of them aren't even overpowered, especially since item upgrading in Arc 2 is really open-ended when you know what you're doing. Dunno about setpieces but Choko IS locked without her, yes. Also you can't get the most busted item in the game (Romancing Stone) without importing a couple of Arc 1 items.

I had the control stick problem too - I took apart my PSP, tried just using it without the stick attached to see if that'd disable it, but it didn't help at all. I just ended up upgrading to a red 2000 (and later a Go).

I'm so glad I found this thread. I've come into possession of eight broken psps. The worst is a bricked 3001, which I'm assuming can't be unbridled by any means. Is there a way of telling if it was bricked by hacking or just regular firmware updates? I thought I might just send that one in to Sony, but I don't want to bother if it's got home brew on it.

Bean posted:I'm so glad I found this thread. I've come into possession of eight broken psps. It almost certainly won't be a warranty fix so it doesn't matter of it hacked or not. They'll just reflash it (or sell you a refurb) anyway, so if there were any incriminating custom code traces on there they will be eradicated by the fix.

Hey guys what's the best file manager homebrew for the psp? I didn't see one mentioned in the OP. I'd like to browse the file system, move, rename and delete files and create folders, that's all.

The valkyria chronicles 3 translation patch was released last week to little fanfare. It isn't perfect, but it seems functional thus far. http://vc3translationproject.wordpress.com/patch-and-instructions/

Alright, I don't know if anyone else has tried it, but Advance Wars's dialogue boxes disappear for no reason half the time. It's at preset points, and it happens with the second game too, so I think it's a problem with emulating those games rather than the roms. Has anyone else had to try getting them to work?

Nintendo likes to put piracy prevention into their games. It probably needs to be patched.

I've been out of the PSP game for a while. Found the charger for my PSP1000 after having found the system a bit ago, and it's on firmware 6.38. I don't remember updating it to that, but oh well. I assume the instructions in the op saying "Update your PSP's firmware to 6.60." is what I need, right?

I haven't checked the latest CFW for a while, so I don't know if you can permapatch 6.60 CFW. I know it's possible with 6.20, and I don't think you need anything higher.

I've never had an issue with emulating games outside of them simply not working very well (ogre battle 64 ugh) The only ones that I know of that needed to be patched for "anti-piracy" were DS games, and only first party nintendo games.

PRO-C* still works, and is still available from the "not code.google" link in the OP. (It's Software Reborn and as of this post still legit.) Yes, it comes with a patcher to make it permanent on 1000s. Yes, you might as well go to 6.60 first. Also you could technically roll back to 6.20 (before Music Unlimited and Digital Comics since those don't work on PSP anymore) but without the Pandora and Magic MS BS from five years ago  and Hellcat and the knowledge to use them I would implore you to avoid it.*PRO-C2 did dumb poo poo with the PS1 abstraction layer; don't use that.

Yeah so I just played MG: AC!D and didn't know where to post  My backup Vita has become a PSP machine, I am currently in the process of backing up my old UMD's and sticking them on a 32gb card to play on dat OLED. Going to try and track down some bargains on eBay, any essential PSP games I should be on the lookout for? Got MG: Acid 1 and 2 for like $5.

Acid has the most wonderfully insane story. MGS2 wishes it was Acid. The sequel isn't quite that nuts but the gameplay is better.

I've gone homebrew crazy since discovering this thread! I love it! I can play the right version of Cave Story again on the go (Cave Story 3D sucked rear end), Back up all my UMDs onto a single memory card so I don't have to carry around my carry case or decide to leave stuff at home, meaning I can always go on a quick Monster Hunt. My question though is this, I started playing Momodora, a Cave Story-esque game on my PC, I was wondering is there a method to port it to PSP as the controls are not complicated and the graphics even less so. Also based off Manac0r's post, does that mean PSP emulation is easy on the vita? As I live in china and those things are near dirt cheap here.

There are exploits in PSN PSP games they use to crash the Vita into PSP mode. At that point you've got a homebrew PSP running on Vita. Sony controls it though, since you have to get the game on the Vita from the PSN store and never update again. The last exploit game was Persona 2 Innocent Sin, and like any other exploit games it was pulled from the store and patched out in a firmware update.

You'd have to know how to code, have a copy of that game's source code, make sure that it will run on the PSP (with it's tiny amount of RAM and processing power) and then re-write the game to work on it. So no, there really isn't an easy way to do it.

I just decided, sort of on a whim, to get my first PSP. I know I can use any PSP for homebrew at this point, but only some can be permanently modded. I've been reading over everything and I just want to be sure I'm clear on what I'm looking for before buying one. What is the best model to go with assuming money isn't a big issue (I'm going to be buying it from Gamestop and have a poo poo ton of credit there)?

So the remodding wouldn't require anything other than turning it on and running an app that will already be on the system? Because I don't really intend to fully power off the PSP, but sometimes I forget to charge stuff and it dies on me so I wanted to make sure that it wouldn't be a pain in that case.

Getting the custom firmware back up and running is as simple as selecting it on your memory stick and waiting a couple of seconds for it to load

Well poo poo, that sounds about as easy as it can get. Okay, thanks! Edit: Oh, I have one more question. I'm not sure where I read it but I think someone said that the 3000 can have issues with some PSX games. Is that still a thing? Is there any reason at all to go with a 2000 over a 3000?

You may want to consider a PSP Go, it has the same amount of RAM, 16 gb of internal storage and allows you to pair a PS3 controller with it. It's also considerably smaller and allows you to make a sort of save state in case you need to stop playing your PSP for a while.

Also go try holding a PSP Go if you can, like ChaosArgate said, they're really nice psps; just make sure you like how it fits in your hands.
