Yes you can redeem your games with the Media Go software. Also you didn't need to go online with your PSP. Registering your PSP with the official Sony Playstation webpage works as well. They send you a code to your email and you can redeem it either on a PS3 or on your computer through Media Go.

Alright I downloaded the Kxploit ran the .EXE and now I have something in my program files called 115? What am I doing with this? Is there a specific file i'm looking for to move on the psp.
Do you perhaps know of a tutorial I can refer to since I feel bad bugging you for step by steps..
Edit - Did some searching and found a mega for dummies guide.. I'll see how far I can get

no idea, unless it only works on the TA-088v3 mobo... which would mean your PSP can use CFWLando Jones said:

Tried a couple of methods..
Didnt get anything from either.. When I load pspident is says the file is corrupted and kxploit still wont fire up.
So my next question is if I can use CFW do I need a pandora battery or is there a way around that?

Thanks for that...
But 2 hrs after the fact, this file has been deleted once I realized this wasn't the right one.
Can't exactly say it was the wisest choice, but all things considering I don't think someone would be linking viruses to a "help me with CFW thread". That would be a dick move

in the UK you can buy a go for the same price as a slim. crazy.
so no issues now with a go? Does the HEN stay persistent or do you still need to 'load' it when you power off? I'm likely to be quite on/off if I buy one so startup time is an issue for me.
I also need to be able to redownload my PSN purchases via mediago, as I have a ton of stuff on there - can I do that without issue? online PSN store from the PSP?

It's a plugin, let's you adjust clock speed, brightness, USB charge etc.
Some plugins like this do work on 6.3X HEN, as long as they are saved in the plugins folder (as opposed to seplugins on previous CFWs).
I don't think anyone's posted this yet, but here's a link to an EBOOT signer that works on the PSP itself.

I'm not sure how it works as I haven't tried it myself, but people seem to be having success with smaller homebrew. Personally I'd prefer a Windows-based EBOOT signing tool (drag & drop EBOOT, and it does the rest - if anyone knows of one, lemme know), but this is pretty cool.

I have a small problem. I started playing FFT: WotL on my PSP-3000 from my UMD and had an 80-hour game save. I later transferred that save by copying it into my computer and then moving it to the PSPgo. When I played FFT on the PSPgo via Prometheus, it didn't recognize any saves.
Anyone know if it's even possible to transfer game saves between a UMD version and a rip of that UMD played on the PSPgo?

yeah, you don't need a Pandora battery, all you need is ChickHEN R2 and Hellcat's Recovery Flasher. oh, and the firmware files.Lando Jones said:
edit: instructions for starting at 5.03 OFW
Set up ChickHEN R2. This enables running homebrew.
Use Hellcat's Recovery Flasher and Sony's 5.00 FW to flash 5.00 M33.

Wait, does that mean that as of right now I can have CFW on my PSP Go and play ripped PSP games off MS the same way I'm doing it now with my PSP-2000?

I don't think that 6.35 will run PSone rips either.VALKYRAY said:
I'm not sure where to ask this so I thought here would do. As a new PSP Go owner as of yesterday I've downloaded the PSP Go promotion theme wirelessly by signing in with my existing PSN account which I used on my old PSP2000. I previously downloaded the psp go theme on my psp2000 just because it was free, does that hurt my chances of getting the 10 free games on my new Go?
My Go is brand new, bought yesterday. I signed in with my old account that had previously downloaded the promotional theme on my old PSP. I downloaded the theme again on my new Go. Should I expect the 10 free games code?

Unsure if this has been posted, but I couldnt see it here.

I have a simple question, is putting CFW on your PSP just as easy as on PS3? Or do you still have to work with a battery?
I'm only interested in putting CFW on my PSP2000 and then installing a SNES emulator. All the rest is not needed.
Also, will you be able to play new games, such as FF Type-0, when they release? Or do I have to revert back to OFW, and is this as simple as on PS3?
I haven't put CFW on either of the machines, but PS3 looks soooo easy when I look at that thread while PSP looks difficult.

Just for homebrews eh? Just download HBL: http://wololo.net/wagic/hbl/
Pick your OFW version, download and read the readme - it also links there an SNES emulator.
if you're on 6.20, it's better that you go with TN-HEN.
Just don't update to the latest OFW version 6.37 at this time.

I haven't played PSP in forever, and I have a friend who wants to put CFW on his 2000. What is the most recent / stable CFW for that? He has it on OFW 3.55 right now. I can make a pandora battery for him if need be, but if its not needed I can just send him the files / links to do himself.

Well, I've got it working! Unfortunately, the battles in Chrono Trigger Crimson Echoes don't go very smooth. Sound has serious lag issues there... I've turned off smoothing in the graphical options, put the clockspeed to 333/166 and lowered sound output to 11kHz. It's better, but still not good enough for me I think. Too bad.

I've been adjusting settings and it's acceptable now. Hooray!bubnbob said:
GBA emulation works great btw, only problem is a crashing PSP when trying to adjust the volume.

Not sure I haven't played it in awhile and it was at 5.03 last on OFW...
I know the issue with the slim 2000s were whether or not the motherboard could be hacked and for this particular psp you can. As far as the firmware goes that i'm not 100% sure
Hey guys, I'm having a huge problem with my PSP-2000. It's not realted to 6.35 or any of that HEN crap, so I'm giving you a break from all those questions, haha.
So anyway, here's the deal. My PSP had been working just fine up until recently. I played it a lot during winter break and had no problems. Then classes started again and I had no time for it. Yesterday, I tried to add an .iso to my ISO folder and I got some error about there not being enough space. This was very strange considering I have a 16GB memory stick and I'm only using up about 10GB or so. The iso was only like 600MB, so there was definitely enough room for it in there (no, I don't have pictures, videos, or anything like that. Trust me, there was more than enough room for the .iso) I tried using my friend's PC (I have a Mac) and I got the same error. So I copied all my files over to my Mac, formatted the memory stick on the PSP, and moved my stuff back. I didn't have any problems loading my stuff on there, but when I went to Games on the XMB, it says there are no games! It also doesn't see my save files I'm freaking out right now because I don't wanna lose my stuff. I checked the system info and it says I'm still on Prome-4, so I really dunno...

I'm freaking out right now because I don't wanna lose my stuff. I checked the system info and it says I'm still on Prome-4, so I really dunno...Quick question, if anyone can help -- just got my PSP Go in the mail (this thing feels SO MUCH BETTER than my PSP-2000), and I'm looking at the steps for installing HBL/HEN... I decided to go to 6.20, and stay there for a while... but I can't figure out if I should get 6.20 TN-A or 6.20 TN-B. Do I need A to go to B? Is B a much improved version?
For some reason, the sites that have information about these things are insanely difficult to read and information is not presented very well at all. Any help distinguishing between 6.20 TN-A and 6.20 TN-B would be extremely appreciated. Thanks in advance.
