(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This only works on OFW 5.03 so if you have firmware greater than 5.03 then you are out of luck. :\

I'm pretty bored and well I've seen people having trouble with this, so I decided "Hey why not just write a guide".

I prefer to use 5.03 GEN-C over the cfw enabler, because cfw enabler flashes your settings and 5.03 Gen-C doesn't and I think that's a pain to keep redoing them.

What you need:

A Psp 3000 or a slim with the newer motherboard
A computer
The 5.03 Update which you can get You must login or register to view this content.
Chickhen R2, Which you can get You must login or register to view this content.

I cannot stress this enough, you need PATIENCE!


First, backup all of your memory stick files onto your computer, then format your memory stick.

Then open up the 5.03 update and place the eboot in PSP>GAME>UPDATE>Eboot.pbp

Now here comes the tough part, now exit usb mode and click on PICTURE, and wait for the EGG subfolder picture to load and then click on it.

Two things can happen, you can Freeze which is totally normal, you've got to just keep trying.

Or you can get, depending on your background, a green flashing bar-code like image on your psp.

Let it do it's thing and then your psp should reboot.

Congratulations, you now have gotten past the hardest part.

thank 4 the post very nice tutorial cant wait to start hacking :pedo:

I updated a long time ago because I heard the 3000s are unhackable. Well that does it, Im not updating anymore because its only a matter of time until its hackable again.

yea i stop updating a long time ago cuz my friend said there goin to hack 300 series good think i listen to him lol

Man thats awesome might have to try it

Edit: Ok I got Chicken R2 on my PSP 1000. So I go and Run CFW Updater 5.03 GEN, it loads, then it tells me

[/quote]"BAD PSP HARDWARE DETECTED!!!!! Cannot be run on Fat!!!!!."[/quote]

I am not turning off my PSP because it took me so long to get Chicken to work.

How do I install CFW on a PSP FAT 1000 after Chickhen has be run successfully? Please reply quickly, I'll +rep you if you help.

edit: google told me to use Hellcats recovery flasher, so after downloading a few more files, I got my PSP on 5.00 m33.

Yeah FAT models are only the 1000 series, then the slims are 2000 up. I wish my FAT didn't brick on me. Maybe I'll buy a battery to make it my Pandora battery to get on a lower firmwire to CFW my slim.

Or buy a FAT's battery to unbrick my FAT PSP.

I'm glad all of you liked it.

From GEN-C can we get to 5.50 M33-6?

thank u very much.
