Has anyone tried playing a PS1 game (not from PSN, but ripped from a PS1 disc) on their PSP and then transferred that save to play on the PS3 with the PS1 disc since all PS3s have backwards compatibility with PS1? In that respect, has anyone done the reverse and transferred a PS1 save stored on the PS3 virtual memory card to a PSP and continued a game on the handheld? If so how do you transfer those saves back and forth between PSP and PS3? Big thanks for any answers!

Not directly on the PSP, because if you're at anything less than 6.37 OFW it prompts you to update. And I wouldn't recommend accessing PSN while on CFW (although I don't think Sony has ever banned a PSP).TheBez said:
Other options are to use a PS3 or Media Go to transfer the games to your PSP.

I haven't turned on my PSP1000 in almost a year, so I pretty much have no idea how far along the scene has moved. It's currently running on 5.50 HEN D2, and I'm wondering about the newest, stable, and reliable CFW out there. Any tips or heads up (as well as a the most reliable source of CFWs since the google is yielding lots of unfamiliar results) would be greatly appreciated.

Personally I'm more comfortable restarting the CFW over taking a risk with this though...

OT: can anyone recommend a psp go case?

Either go to eBay and search "pspgo eva case" or click this link:

I've gone through about 3 pspgo cases and this is by far the best one if you are super OCD about getting scratches on your pspgo. It's hard on the outside, but soft felt like material on the inside which is very snug. You literally could throw this thing against the wall and I bet your PSPgo would not get a single scratch. Best of all its less than 5 bucks.
Please forgive me if there is somewhere else in this thread that has already been discussed, but there are just so many pages to sort through that I'm afraid I'd miss what I'm looking for.
I just had a question regarding the latest cfw and retail games. I just recently bought a PSP from my brother who had cfw on the PSP. I don't think I'd want to remove this feature, because I already know of some homebrew I'd like to use on it.
The problem is, I do still want to buy some retail games for the system. I already know of at least 3 PSP games out, or coming out in the next few weeks (Ys I & II Complete, Dissidia 012, Third Birthday, and FFIV Complete to name a few). I'd like to play these games, but I'm afraid it wont let me play many of these without demanding a firmware update. Are there recent cfw updates out there that let you play the retail games just fine without having to overwrite your cfw?
The PSP I have is currently running cfw 5.00 M33-6, what would help me out and is there a newer cfw I should look to upgrade to, to avoid a problem with the retail games I've mentioned.
Thanks in advance for any info or help that may be offered.

You didn't mention what type of PSP it is, but judging by the fact that it's running M33 cfw, I'm gonna assume it's either a 1000 or 2000. If you search for the latest Prometheus firmware, that should allow you to play most new games.Yuripaw said:
Fake edit: I'm assuming this is the latest version of it:

However, I'm not sure, as I use HEN firmware.
Is there any SNES emulator that works on 6.35 HEN? I've tried running a couple of them before on my PSP but the two that I tried(I believe it was Euphoria and another one that I can't remember the name of) would either return me to the XMB or freeze when they finished loading the game.
Hey, sorry I forgot to mention that I had a PSP-2000 system. You were very helpful though, and I was able to upgrade to the Prometheus-4 cfw. I was still a little worried that it might not work for some games, but I just picked up Dissidia duodecim 012 today, and it works!Oyashiro said:
Hopefully I'll have the same success with The Third Birthday, and FFIV complete in the coming weeks.Thanks very much for your help.

If a game doesn't work, don't blame me, haha. I haven't had a 1000/2000 in quite a while, so i'm not exactly sure how things work.Quick question: Is there a way to edit text on a PSP using a keyboard or chat-pad equivalent, either officially or through homebrew?
Dissidia 012 has a quest mode where you can edit in what looks like a hundred lines of dialog. Fun to try, but not so fun to do with the PSP buttons.

I know that with the old m33 firmware, I was able to actually edit one of the text files in notepad - I just connected it to my computer and edited.
I'm guessing you might be able to if you can find the txt file, but I'm not totally sure.
Hey, so I decided I'd get some use out of my psp and download Legend of Mana. However, I haven't used it much in a while and I'm guessing I'm unable to do this on 5.50 gen-d2? I can't particularly remember if there's anything I can do, as my last memories of it are hazy. I have no internet or computer here and copied the game at a friends house where I tried to just turn my psp back to ofw (apparently I'm on "9.90" and can't? :/).
My preliminary guess is I'm screwed for playing this until I can dl it on my ps3 upon obtaining internet Thursday. Someone tell me I'm wrong

so I tried to search thru this thread, until I realized that I do not know how to search thru this thread >_<
so I want to ask, does anybody know how to get Tactics Ogre to run on CFW PSP??
I have the UMD, but my PSP shuts off when I try to access the first map!!
I tried to rip the ISO, which I did, and the game still shuts my thing down!!
it sucks coz I really want to play this game

Just got 3rd Birthday, it won't run. Doubt FF4CC would run then. The only thing I use the CFW for is screenshots so I may as well just ditch this, right?
Except I can't because it says I have 9.90 when I try to run the updater. Man, this stuff has only been a pain in my butt.

I'd love to know what combo you used to get it to work (special ID, popsloader version, ripping process). Hoping to play through FF8 soon.
Getting past the odd situation by transferring to PC could also work - what emulator should I use and are the save files transferrable / convertable?
Unless you enjoy the process of hacking your psp, I'd say custom firmware is absolutely unnecessary for you. I actually do enjoy it so I like getting it successfully hacked, but when I boil it down, the most time I spend with my PSP is just playing games. So I'd say if you're just trying to play games, then just go to OFW and never look back.

There's a "version.txt" (or something) somewhere on the PSP you can access over USB mode (MM0?), change that and you can go back to OFW.RevenantKioku said:

Well, since 6.37 is OFW, you can probably just run the updater as usual. No real big trick, but Dissidia 012 is playable on Pro-B3. I bought a physical copy for my OFW 3000 and then the PSN copy for my Pro-B3 Go, plays fine.
