Question about custom Firmware and motherboard TA-082

hi there, im new to this whole homebrew thing and i wanted to ask a few questions

i just bought a Japanese PSP (Firmware 1.5) and i checked the motherboard. It has that new one that people keep talking about (TA-082).

now i want to upgrade to one of those Dark-Alex custom firmwares like 3.03 OEA or 3.40OE-A. i know that there are a lot of tutorials on them but i want to know this, which one is the 'best'.

i want to be able to play snes, psx and megadrive games on my psp if that helps

which moddified firmware can i use and does my motherboard just mean that i can't downgrade, or are there other issues with it?

sorry i posted twice, my connection was messing up so i refreshed and that happened.


could a moderator delete the other post please

Well lucky you. You don't need to downgrade, when you downgrade it is just downgrading the psp's firmware to 1.5 which alows you to run homebrew. Essentially you could run all those emulators now, but you can upgrade to any custom firmware you want to and they all do the same thing(homebrew wise, I guess you could say, they all run the same emulators). And it doesn't really matter what your motherboard is since you have a 1.5 already. So all you need to do is (most popular are 3.03OE-C and 3.40OE-A) download a custom firmware and the best instruction I found on how to do it was the readme that came with the zip file. But any guide that tells you how to upgrade to a certain custom firmware should do the trick if you don't want to read the readme (its like a 4 step process, its like realllllly easy).

O and no double posting, just edit your first post.

ok thanks for the info

and sorry about the double post

I'd suggest version 3.03 oe-c, and if you ever have any issues with the PS1 emulator that is built-in, then I'd suggest 3.40 oe-a. I'm using 3.03 oe-c and it works for everything I need.
