thank you very, very much. i've rescued a 3004 sold as parts only that was better than the 3010 i was trying to save :p i'm happy on how the tools evolved in these years
Hi Lusid! Amazing work let me say. You will be remembered in many years. One question? I am in a Hotel with no computer or adapter next to me, can I download isos from your website and play in my psp 1000? Thanks in advance!
@@MicaelAzevedo sorry for the very late reply. If you’re on a PC you’ll either get a .xpd file downloaded or shown in your browser. The .xpd file contains the links to the actual downloads. It’s how a web server tells the PSP what to download and where to save it.
Thanks for the video, I think it got me there in the end. But the entire video is made with the assumption that we know anything about this and have a clue of how old setups work, as a newby this makes me doubt every step. Please make a video where you assume we know absolutely nothing about psp hacking, handhold the entering the adress, as that got me stuck for a good half hour figuring out how to even enter an adress without failing. Well done, but could be much better if it was made for a newby into this world. Another example: "but if we go to the VSH menu..." i have no idea what that is and where!?
I believe I've already posted a comment before but it wasn't as related as the video... by the way, I got the HDMI cables and they work great... My question this time is why use crinoswitch and not reset the console to factory settings? Thanks in advance and regards.
First of all, a very interesting and informative video… 🙇🏻🙇🏻thank you very much for it… but I have a question about how to capture the PSP screen?

hello, nice to see your video here.. i'm just buying psp from online shop and its firmware 6.35 Pro B.. its that a custom firmware? i never have psp before
After being for so long in v6.20 PRO Fast Recovery, I decided to give ARK a try. I succefully installed but, as I didn't have an "Extra" menu, "Plugins" and "Custom Laucher" were added under "Games" and they both only opens the exact same parameters as "System". I beleive the ARK team didn't consider this condition. Does anybody know how to fix this?
@@lusid1games It's a PSP-2010 and is not clear to me where is it from. It was bought in Mexico but some people in the internet say bought them in other countries.
Thanks for the instructional video we all bin waiting for this type of update 🌄🙌💯 do you know if there is a WiFi compatibility update on the WPA to a WPA2 or a adapter for you router that can transmit a WPA signal without downgrade the hole system?
@@Sssjose408 there original firmware is still being reverse engineered on an entirely volunteer basis. Someone still needs to RE the WiFi driver bits and see if wpa2 is even possible. The simplest solution is a second router you can turn on when the PSP needs access. Or a guest network with reduced security settings.
Damn, Love your collection. Btw I was waiting for you to make a video about PSP ! As I have been following up your content, I have to ask this. Recently, The PSP PSN hasn't been connecting. I tried contacting Playstation with no avail. Account management isn't working either. Can you look into this issue?
I downloaded the 3 essential plugins on that site. I’m in the plug in menu and I installed the loader into the VSH but do I install the cdda and npdrm there too? The read me doesn’t say. Super new and would love some help. :)
@@lusid1games thanks had to slow down your video to see the file destination on your psp. lol. Still really new to this. Only thing I’ve done is follow your video that’s it.
@@icingdeathicingdeath5581 PSP only support WPA (1 not 2 or 3). So there are a few things you can try. If your WiFi supports setting up a guest network with lower security that’s the easy way. Some old androids phones let you set up a hotspot without a password. Otherwise a second WiFi router setup for legacy devices is probably the next best option.
Do you have to delete everything of your SD Card like remove all your home brew apps and stuff like that and if not will they all work properly?

@@T_plays_gamez Most modern routers are too secure by default. PSP requires WPA (not WPA2 or WPA3), and for really old firmware it only support WEP. I use a second router with weaker security, or a guest network with weaker security. Some people have had success setting up an unsecured hotspot on an android phone.
@@xdKnuspiii You need to get it on wifi (WPA1, not WPA2 or WPA3), log into the PlayStation store using a device setup code (See my using PSN video for steps). And then you should be able to activate.
