How to - Make a Pandora Battery

How to make a Pandora Battery without a Custom Firmware PSP Tutorial Guide . This guide was posted by a member by the name pspman22 on a gaming community forum . This guide will guide you through a tutorial on how to make a PAndora Battery with out a PSP that has a custom firmware on it . Make sure to follow all instruction carefully to avoid any issue .

(NOTE: materials are labled by: 1)Name and then 2)quantity)

Materials:

A psp running ANY firmware (1)
A compute with an internet connection (1)
A mini USB cable or memory card reader (1)
A knife or exacto knife (1)
A battery (just as long as it is NOT a new battery because they are “pandora proof”) (1)
A needle/safety pin (1-2)

Process #1 (Creating A Magic Memory Stick)

1)Turn on the psp
2)Format the memory stick
3)Go into USB mode
4)Next, go here TOTALNewbi-easyInstaller
5)At the bottom, select download (the dowload is 135MB so be patient)
6)Extract the application to your desktop
7)Run “Start.exe”
8)Follow the instructions until you get into the installation screen
9)When there, you can select to install the universal unbricker (do this one!!!)
10)After it is done, your going to need to get 2 files. 1)registry 2)kd (i have a download link at the bottom for people without this)
11)Put both (kd & registry) on the root of your memery stick
12)Disconnect your psp and turn it off

Process #2 (Softmodding the battery)

1)Take your knife/exact knife and CAREFULLY open your battery
2)once done, look for the connecter labled (ICO4 or CO4) (depending on your battery)
3)Next take your needle/safety pin and CAREFULLY remove the 5th pin (the pins start from the bottom left and up. So pin 5 should be the bottom one on the right…..depending on how you hold your battery.)
4)Put you battery back together (and if you want, glue it back on)

Now from here you are pretty much done! All you really need to do is test your battery.

Testing your battery:

(to test battery, insert the battery with no memory stick inserted. the power should automatically come on. If so, you did it!!! if not, then you cut the wrong connecter but you might have 1 more chance to get it right!)

Now all you have to do is run pandora’s battery!!!

Running pandora’s battery:

(to do this, start the psp with both the ceated memory card and the softmodded battery. You may or may not see anything. But the MS LED and the wifi LED should glow for a second. If it does, just press X and let that run for about 5 minutes. if it doesnt, try re-creating the memory stick)
OK, your psp should turn itself off in the end. all you have to do is remove the battery and the memory stick. and then plug in the charger. Next, turn on the psp and you should have 3.71 M33 or 3.71 M33-2!!!!!

Tips and tricks:
—————
1)Run the v3 universal unbricker when your done so you can see the text (on slim psp’s or fat)
2)Buy a new battery (if your cheap, see the 1st question on “Final Questions”
3)Remember NOT ALL homebrew is comaptible with the psp slim!!
