Release Notes:
Here you have it, an all-in-one solution for your Pandora Needs.
This program is designed to prepare your PSP Memory Stick to be used with the Pandora Battery. Unfortunately this program can not change your Battery to Pandora, however it will copy programs to the Memory Stick in order for you to do this yourself.
In this version I corrected the registry files for the 1.50 Downgrader and DC 3-7, Iheard that I might have possibly been using a custom theme on one of these registries when creating the files, so I've re-done them all. I've also modified the 01-12.bmp and 13-27.bmp files in the Test 4.01 M33 portion of DC7 to show a Black background. This is to prevent the user from confusing it with their normal XMB.
As far as the support tools go, I included FuSa SD and updated PSP Filer to 5.6. I decided to remove NAND Manager as it seems that nandTool will do everything you need.
I hope you enjoy this new release...

Posted: Fri Sep 19, 2008 10:29 pm Post subject: use ppd without cfw
Hi,
i'm a bit confused.
installing ppd it shows a warning it requires a psp fat/slim with M33 cfw
("needed for creating the Pandora battery, not the MS")
in the interface (starting up the program) you have to choose between 1.50 FW or M33 FW
what if you have a brand new psp and bought a Pandora battery
can ppd be used to create the MS?
what FW to choose (1.50 or M33, neither is true)?
is there a guide (however simple) for this situation?
Thanks,
tengooz

If you have a pandora battery already, it doesnt really matter if you select 1.50 or M33, you can just delete these files anyway (check in PSP/GAME for these).
Yes this program will create the memory stick for you, regardless of your PSP having custom firmware or not. The only reason you'd need those firmwares is if you wanted to create your own battery, but in your case it looks like you don't need to.

Check out the instruction manual thats included with PPD for more information on its use.
Thanks DJB,
sorry if i seem a little tenacious, but i want to be absolutely sure of what i'm doing.
What files to remove (only Hellcats or also jas0nuk's?, other files?)
Isn't there some sort of batch file created that 'misses' the files that you afterwards removed, giving cause to an error/freeze/brick
I read the manual, but it doesn't say what to do with the MS once created (put it in your psp, put in your Pandora battery and just wait and see?)
Thanks again
