How do I install custom firmware on my PSP?

I have been getting allot of questions from people asking how to install custom firwmare on their own psp's so here is a post that should answer those questions for future mikehacks.com visitors.

Check your firmware by turning on your psp then go to system settings and system information.

If you firmware is 3.50 or lower you can use the Lumines downgrader tutorial to install custom firmware on your psp.
If your psp is on any firmware above 3.50 the only way to hack your psp is to get something called pandora's battery and memory stick. If you cant make a pandora battery and magic memory stick you can jsut buy it fromhere http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.12710~r.22209929

It is possible to create pandora's battery and memory stick.

But you will need:

another psp that has already been hacked, it has to be the older psp model (fat version).
Battery from a older version psp
and a memory stick at least 268MB and less than 8GB
Video tutorial is here if you have all the requirements

sorry im just kidding..if u can't do a custom firmware..go to ur psp shop who allows to have custom firmware and pay it just to do ur psp on m33..thats the easiest way freinds...its not expensive...its affortable,rather to buy umd disk on ur psp..m33 is very good to all consumers..its a lifetime free playstation game...god bless us...to all m33 users beware to update in psp network..it might be hack ur psp in to a original version
