3. After that, Click on Games & new icon will appear as shown in above image.
4. Now Click on "Quick Updater 5.03GEN-B

The Quick Updater 5.03GEN-B does not work in PSP slim 3004 series. Hence advanced gamez cannot be played
I'm still unable to play 1/2 blood prince
@Ashutosh
But In my PSP 3004, every game is playable.
Tell me what error you are getting??
In my system information it showz 5.03 gen b (full)
but wen i try to run obscure or 1/2 blood prince it shows "Game could not be started (80020148) "
It shows error 80020148 game could not b started
Thanks dude..it works on my psp 3000..no more error
@Ashutosh
Yes in system info. it has written 5.03Gen-B (full).
Now, check in "System Settings" UMD Auto-Start & UMD Cache should be OFF.
It solves ur problem. If not, then go to GEN VSH MENU via "SELECT" button on ur PSP. Then UMD ISO MODE - M33 driver.
IT WILL DEFINATELY WORK...
I have just bought a PSP 3004 and want to crack it.How do I do it ?

@trans
Hack is only possible if ur firmware is below 5.03.
U can check ur firmware as wriiten below:
SETTINGS>> SYSTEM SETTINGS>> SYSTEM INFORMATION.

mine says : bad psp hardware detected . cannot be run on FAT !! - what should I do now ?
I'm able to play gamez which has been released till 2007 (older) games
but unable to play obscure, undercover(da new ones)
@Ashutosh

PLEASE NOTE THAT...ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS ARE ONLY FOR PSP SLIM i.e. for PSP 2000 & 3000 series & NOT FOR FAT
Does it include PSP 3004 slim
@ashutosh
yes it includes PSP 3004 slim. Also, i owned psp 3004 slim
i was getting 80020148 error on cfw 5.03 MHU i uninstalled all cfw.(you can do this by running cfw enabler50 and selecting uninstall) loaded up chickHEN
reloaded cfw 5.03 for gen-A , pressed select to get vhs menue, selected recovery menu, went in under advanced, (gen-A menu is off by one so you have to select" option above advanced to get to advanced options "run program at" select advanced configuration under advanced menu, disabled option for execute eboot.bin in UMD/ISO, back option twice to get to first screen , select reset device to exit into cfw
and error no longer apeared and games ran perfect including 5.50 to 5.60 games patched with decrypter, i was still able to load back in CFW 5.03 MHU using cfw enabler60 with no problem . kernal is set to 1.5
i have a psp 3001 series so this should work for every one
Someone linked to this guide from another site describing the 80020148 problem when running CFW 5.00 M33.
So I'm wondering, since the GEN and M33 CFWs came from different development teams,can I do a straight upgrade from 5.00 M33 to 5.03 GEN?
@J!Mz
Yeah I also owned PSP 3004 slim
But this dosen't works on mine
as for cfw 5.00 m33 you must upgrade to ofw 5.03 first befor loading chickHeN v2 and then cfw 5.03 cfw gen A then follow instructions i posted above...
as for psp 3004 what firmware came on the unit if it came with anything above 5.03 ofw then your out of luck no way to downgrade and can't run any exploits on that motherboard yet
oh and i have upgraded to firmware 5.03 GEN-B after that post and still no problems
great work dude just patched my psp 3004 works to me i have 1st i did gen-A then next Gen-B now i can able to play gran tourismo
Where do i replace EBOOT.PHP file to where? I have owned psp 3002. Thanks.
i have psp 1001 and m33-3.71 ver..
error is 80020148,the game doesnt strt..
PLEASE HELP
Wonders if I’m at a right place to get this fixed..
I recently got a PSP 2000, it’s a colored version instead of the orignial black.
Went I got the PSP, it was already hacked/or HENned. not sure. But I could play most ISO/CSO files. But was told never ever to put the system off, only to have it in standby mode. (This sounds alot like HEN from what I’ve read)
Now I was bored with my current games and started to switch games on my MS via USB mode. But when I tried to look at the games on my MS, the PSP flashed OFF! Turning it back on, it reveals NO games at all available on my MS. I’ve checked my firmware, and it is gone to a 5.03 (forgot what it used to be..)
So can I use this on your page getting my PSP back into a CFW/HEN (without pandora battery). And perhaps in such a way that I can play ISO/CSO without using standby? (i.e. with the possiblity to fully turn the system off and back on without losing ISO/CSO playability)
Let me know. Thx
Works great on my PSP 3004 slim!
Thanks a million for this wonderful xmas 'gift'!
I have games on psp2000. I want to buy psp3000 later for my other son. Can I use the games I put on psp2000 onto psp3000 after putting the Hen Hack 5.03 and your hack?
THanks!
Me again, I posted 2 post back,
I finally managed to get the HEN on my psp, and a gen to enable iso/cso (gen A didn't work, I got your gen B which was easy).
Nevertheless, I'm stuck with a new problem. Sofar have managed to put 1 iso game back on it, without problems. But adding other/new iso's seems to freeze the system. If there's anyone who could tell me how to avoid this, I'd be happy.
Moreover, I'd like to know: Putting on HEN and a gen on PSP multiple times (due to freeze and shutdown) does that affect the PSP's flash/memory/battery??
Oh and Happy new year!
