Hi, i have a CW Japanese PSP Fat and i had 3.71. I tried to view US UMD movies but it always said it was the wrong region. Then i heard that with a CFW i could remove/change/ or whatever the Region Code to view US UMDs. So im now on 3.52 M33-4 and i dont know how to change it. I would really appreciate it if someone told me how. Thanx.

Turn your PSP completely off, hold the power switch up for a few seconds. Then hold teh R button while you turn your PSP back on. You will enter the Recovery Menu, from here, go to Configuration, then down to 'Fake UMD Region' and change it to whatever.

i changed the Fake Region to America and it still said the UMD movie was "Wrong Region"

I tried it, and still said "Wrong Region". this is strange because a friend of mine has a Silver Japanese PSP and it worked for him. even he was stranged by this and he is a real Pro in stuff like this.

Well just in case i have a Pandora's Battery and i think it says something about pressing [ ] to restore nand or press 0 to ... Or then, just in case you want to know, i have 3.52 M33-4 so if i need to upgrade to 3.71 M33(-1,-2,-3) or 3.72 HX-1 let me know.

any suggestoins or anything?

I dont know why but upgrade to 3.71-3 and see if that helps. I bet it will. Still tho, when u do upgrade make sure to add 1.50 kernal (seperate download) and change the region code to America or fake region code and try then
