Huzzah!!! I have fought a long hard battle with my PSP and am now the happy owner of a 5.00 M33-3 Custom Firmware (with 1.5 compatibility option) PSP... Now if only I could get it to run divx without being all crappy/choppy.

Long hard battle? So I guess you didn't have one of those nice batteries where you just have to cut a single trace, and can even repair it with pencil.

Well, no, so I used a TIFF-sploit to downgrade to 1.5, then kexploit to load build a 3.72 m33-1 CFW then updated that twice to get to 5.00 because there was only an updating version of it for 3.72 m33-3... then I had to patch the 5.00 custom kernel with a a utility so it can play homebrew designed for the 1.5 exploit method (which most is because the scene hasn't gotten around to releasing CFW ready builds for most software)
4 of those steps I still would have still had to have done if I'd had a Pandora battery and magic memory chip... and in retrospect the TIFF-sploit essentially replaced the steps of making a jig kick battery and magic memory card (non-standard formatting a flash card)...
Muhahaha... It's fun to go all "Chrysalis" on something and learn a crapload about it to make sure you understand properly... The "head mashing into desk" phase is worth actually feeling like you know what you are talking about later.
