Ok this is Part 1 of 2 of my turorial for how i installed CFW on my psp without a pandora battery
the things you will need are.
1. PSP (of course) you will need a fat or slim and lite psp. the 3000 version
and the version with the TA-88v3 mother board won’t work.
2. a mini USB cable (to connect the psp to the pc.)
3. a memory stick pro duo. (you know the one you put in the psp.
4. Firmware 5.03. if you have a lower firmware you can update to it but don’t update any further then firmware 5.03.

WARNING! Firmware 5.50 isn’t supported… yet.
ChickHEN and people are working on a ChickHEN version for 5.50 which is supposed to be coming out in june or something so when that happens you’ll be able to use time machine to downgrade to 5.03 to do this. just be patient,

you may also want to try turning off auto UMD and UMD cache and format the psp memory card before doing this.

and DON’T i repeat DON’T turn off your psp during the CFW installation. cause you WILL brick your psp! and have to buy a pandora’s battery to fix it.
you also don’t need any specific amount of battery charge. if you think you don’t have enough charge to last the install you can just plug in your ac charger thing.

You can download the software you need here.

Firmware 5.03 update file download.
