You got a new PSP, you want to run homebrews and backups, but you’re lost with all the terms CFW, HEN, M33, Pro CFW… or you’re simply looking for a quick and easy guide to get the best solution for your PSP? Well, you’ve come to the right place. This guide is an all-in-one guide to installing the appropriate Custom Firmware on your console, just follow my lead.
Let’s start with the basics, What’s your PSP model?
hey wololo my psp 2000 is called slim and lite too its written on the box its a ta088v3 so you should edit that what you written wrong
psp 3000 is brite no slim and lite
Thanks, fixed
actually on my package with the psp 3000 is clearely written slim and lite…
maybe “brite” is a way to call it for expert ppl…Brite is just a name made by underground pspdevs.
psp cfw for dummies
good work wololo hopefully no mre stupid questions from noobs,I’m sure that if it’s coming from a “noob”…then it’s NOT a stupid question for him because he doesn’t know any better YET. He’s not LUCKY enough Mr. “Big Shot”…to be all the He-man that is you “yella”
is it run all isos?
luccAS it the cfw (hen) run close to all isos and cso! It if it is to difficult for you to make one game working with it you can use the umd or whatever.

2 things to ask:
1 – The best version to keep a 2000 fully hackable is on 5.50 with TN_Hen? Doesn’t have any benefit to upgrade to last CFWs?
2 – There is any way to connect to PSN with 5.50?
Thanks for this…

my psp version is 5.55 i cant update , how to update this version ? plz help me
dear mister munch, if you cant access usb mode, try using a memory card reader.
Helolo Wololo! When will you add the PSP E1000 (PSP Street) to this list?! And when will you add 6.60 to the list of versions in /wagic/hen/ ?
I’ll try to update this guide sometimes this week
First i think that Wagic is great (tried only the windows version)- keep the good work !!!
I think of buying a new PSP E1004 – several questions
1. is it like the E1000?
2. does the hack in this guide (the E1000 section) will work?
3. Will l be able to play all available iso/cso with this hacks, or some games dont work.
4. Is there any difrrence in the hack from the 3000 version?P.S
Is there a plan to make a version pf Wagic to Android?Thanks
James.Hi James. Please note that I have little information about the PSP Street (E1000), but from my understanding it is hackable exactly like the PSP 3000
1) E1004 is the same as E1000, yes. The last number in the PSP number only represents the region where it was bought.
2) yes, the hack will work
3) As far as I know, most isos work on the PRO Custom firmware. Note however that since this PSP doesn’t have a UMD drive, you don’t really need isos (which are useful mainly if you don’t want to carry the UMD), as you will be able to directly play games bought from the PSN.
4) From the user point of view, there is no difference between the hack on the 3000 and the hack on the PSP streetWagic on android: yes, you can help with the beta test here: http://www.wololo.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=3208
lol. the guides are like all the same.
except for maybe the introductory paragraphs. XDThe “Power users” section is different for each console too. But basically, yes. I’ve seen that people prefer to have a page dedicated to their own console rather than a generic guide which would become confusing with time.
Good job guys. I have PSP Slim 3001 (Model 9g) with 6.39 OFW but I am thinking of upgrading to 6.60 OFW before installing 6.60PRO-B10 CFW. Is it advisable for me to update to 6.60 OFW and how do I detect which board it has, so I can decide if I can install CIPL flasher. Or should I just stay with Fast recovery?
WHich CFW is the best and why?I found out that there is a 6.60PRO-B10 CFW and also 6.60PRO-B10 fix1,. Should I install the 6.60PRO-B10 before running the 6.60PRO-B10 Fix1 or can I just run the 6.60PR-B10 Fix without the first one?
Simply use B10 Fix1
Please, which is the best Custom firmware that i can install on a PSP Slim 3001 (Model 9g)? What is the difference between the HEN and ProCFW and which one is better?
well….first of all let me tell you the difference.
HEN = It is a homebrew enabler that enables you to play tons of homebrews,emulators,apps.
ProCFW = It enables you to play homebrews,emulators,apps,
PSP Backups,plugins.Now the best thing to use is ProCFW(my choice).It totally enables psp’s full potential.trust me,you’ll love it!!
Sean G. your psp is most likely a brite not a slim.
procfw is a hen with a lot of build in plugins like isoloader etc. (pro most likey the best for backups)
tn-hen is a hen without permanent patch or isoloader.
you can run “all” the stuff that working with procfw,
plugins for example to load isos, run apps emulators hbs etc..note that thier are some problems after downgrade a g9 psp.
with “all” 6.xx psp you have a choise between two or more hen. Switching is no problem (to run some stuff which may does not work with one of them)
i Have a psp go how to hack it
Follow the link that says “I have a PSP Go” in the article. http://wololo.net/wagic/installing-pro-cfw-on-a-psp-go/
Thanks a lot dog the pro cfw works on my psp go, i have a lot of games now
I have an E1004 (Hungary) with 6.50 OFW.
I understand, I just update to 6.60 and than flash the CFW?
Is this method up to now the only way? (running recovery everytime I reboot the PSP doesn’t seem to be a big thing)
Last Q: if I just want to revert, I just install the 6.60 OFW and I am back to “bring back for warranty” state?(I know how to flash phones, I just had these noobis questions, sorry)
you update to 6.60 then you flash the CFW
and if you want to go to the ‘bring back for warranty’ state you just launch the PROUPDATE program and you press Δ to unistall the CFW and your ‘official’.
Hey Wololo i have a PSP 3001 with OFW 6.20, updating to 6.60 and installing the Pro CFW 6.60 is safe? , have any probability to “brick”? thanks
Albinoslug no need to update. Updates cann´t brick your system.
Things you should know:
1. Plugins (prx) can brick a system if you use them wrong >
2. Flash is memory in each psp with nessary operating system files (prx, font etc.). If you mess with the flash you have a high chance to get a full brick. (full-hackabel maybe only semibrick)
so try to dump / backup your flash.
3. You can use a faked 6.60 version.txt to play your orginal psp game with 6.20 Firmware or to use psn.
4. downgrade is much more risky then update.
Hello i have a PSP-E1004 Version 6.50 How can i flach it?
i have a psp 3001 does these method will work on it or not?
Yes. PSP 3001 is a PSP 3000.
Hey, nice tutorial, but I have one problem. My select button is stuck, so I can’t access the recovery menu to run a remap or a macro plugin. Is there any way around this?
Edit your plugin files manually. They are in ms0:/seplugins/*.txt
hey dude i have a psp e1004 street
can ya help meit’s the same as the E1000, just go to the guide for the E1000
