Red PSP batteries...

[guddler]

You know them red PSP batteries that you used to get in order to "jailbreak" the PSP (before Apple came along and it became known as jailbreaking!)??

Well, I need another PSP battery by the morning. I can't get one locally, I've tried all day today. I've got one of them red batteries somewhere. Can it be used as a normal battery as well as being able to hack?? Anyone know?

Do you mean the Pandora batterys?

 

[guddler]

Yeah, thats the one.

Yes, you can also hack a normal battery to work as a pandora battery using a psp running cfw.

 

[guddler]

Sorry, you've confused me now!

So if I charge this Pandora battery tonight and take it with me, I can just use it as a normal battery when my stock one runs out? Yes?

 

[samusaran]

Yes you can.

 

[samusaran]

Just had a think on this and if I remember rightly you have to restore the Pandora to a normal battery.
Its been a few years since I used mine.

 

[guddler]

Finally found the damn thing!!

And yeah, according to the instructions you can't, it's hard wired to always put the PSP into service mode. Damn

Oh well, thanks for the help anyways

[EDIT] It's immaterial - the batteries all swollen and buggered anyway

I thought you could hack any PSP these days with just some files on a memstick.

 

[guddler]

Lol, I'm sure you can, but that wouldn't solve my lack of battery problem

The PSPs already hacked. Need a battery!
