Make a Pandora Battery and Stick with no CFW PSP!

[psplayer]

Hey everyone call me stupid but what is a pandora battery and what does it do

[Monkey Business]

A pandora battery can unbrick your PSP and it can also downgrade your PSP from any firmware.

Kinda off topic, but I found this battery in my room, I'm not sure if it's broken or a pandora's battery because I tried to make a pandora's battery a long time ago.

Would a pandora's battery power on the 360, but not show anything. Like would the backlight turn on, but not welcome you to the XMB? I don't have a small enough memory stick to test out and see if it's a Pandora's battery or not.

yeah if its a pandora and you dont have a magic stick it will just turn the green light on and the backlight of the screen and nothing else will happen.

Alright, thanks, I must have been successful with my trying to make a Pandora's battery.

Most likely. I would just make a stick real quick then test it to make sure, so you dont think it works then if something happens and you need to use it, you end up SOL.

Is it an official Sony Battery? what i will do is type in that number and what not and search for it, maybe someone out there has posted a pic of the circuit board so you dont have to open it up, just in case its not compatible.

*i am getting close, i am finding the circuit boards for the s110 1200mAH just trying to find one that specifies the model number. Well i found several but none with a model number just s110. I dont own a slim, so i havent tried the s110, but I would have to say if it has the chip labeled "IC04" it will work you just have to figure out which pin is the #5 pin. I also heard somewhere you can cut the board itself breaking the pcb copper line to pin #5, but they guy never got back to me to tell me if it worked or not.

yeah its a official sony psp battery

I couldnt find a pic of one that mentioned the number or anything so I cant say for sure if it will work.

Step 13:
Now you should see the Pandora menu, go ahead and choose the best option for you. I always use #4, because its universal and it will install CFW 3.71 m33-1 on to any PSP you use the stick on! Once you have selected the best option for you type it in then hit enter.

I get to this point fine. Then after choosing #4 get:

PSP MS IPL Installer
Load IPL code E:/msipl.bin
Can't open E:/msipl.bin
Press any key to continue . . .

Is this normal? I see the msipl.bin files in their respective rars but didn't know if they should automatically get installed or if that was something I had to do manually.
