Hii.
im new to the psp homebrew community. I have v3.5 firmware (on fat psp) and i want to downgrade so i can use custom firmware.
the problem is...im not really sure about pandora battery, does it render the battery UNUSABLE?
Or is there another way to downgrade. I heard about the lumines exploit but i don't have lumines and i don't know where i can get an unpatched one and what is a magic memory stick.

I just want to know what is the best way to downgrade, lumines or pandora?

p.s. i am really desperate to run homebrew but i don't really have the time to learn everything.

Pandora and Magic memory stick is the best way to downgrade and you can use your battery afterwards provided you convert it back.

You will need a CFW PSP to make the above

Really? That's kind of odd. What store was it?
