Completely Stumped :( How do I get my PSP to have the latest CF???

[yays]

Well I just got hold of a PSP Phat, running version 3.03. I want to get it to the latest CF, I'm sure it can be done? (please say it can)
I've also borrowed a pandora battery, so could someone be very kind to tell me how to do it? Will I need a MMS aswell?- if yes-How do I make it? And does the latest CF play all the different version games? (the lower version games too?) Basically could someone walk me through all the steps?

Boot the PSP with the Magic Memory Stick and the Pandora in, in the menu that boots, there should be an option to install the custom firmware, I think the latest is something like M33-5.06. Within this firmware, there is an option that you can use which will allow you to update to custom firmwares using the wifi connection.

I'm not sure because I didn't make mine, I sent mine off to a member of this forum, i'm sure he can help you if he reads this post.

Many Thanks, just wondering, I have a built-in memory card reader. Could I put in my memory card without connecting the PSP and find the relevant drive?
Also is this the latest CFW? If not how do you update it?

Yes you can, install that to your PSP then you can boot into the "factory menu" (hold "R" whilst switching on the PSP) which will allow you to edit certain settings not available from the PSP XMB. There is an option in there that allows you to choose between Sony updating or M33 CFW updating.

Right and thats it? Is this the latest version and will the later CFW versions still play the old version games? P.S how does it update the FW's via WiFi?
