[Tutorial] Ultimate Pandora's Tool v4.3

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PSP OR PC!!!!!

UPMS development has now stopped, but will continue under the name of UPT and will
continue to be upgraded and supported by PSP4Noobz


Requirements

1. Preferably an Original Pro Duo Memory Stick that has a least 512MB of free space. 2. A PSP running Custom Firmware and with no Themes installed, this includes PTF Themes. 3. A battery at least 75% full (ideally 100% full).

Important Notes

Note 1 If you already own a Pandora battery and memory stick without the multi-boot function you must remove your battery and plug in the AC cable, but the memory stick can remain inserted. Note 2 If you are running a psp with custom firmware 3.80M33 and 3.90M33 installed you will have a slightly different install sequence. This sequence will involve the copy and writing of files to your Flash 0. Original files will be backup up to flash 1 before hand. Note 3 The U.P.T. installer now has an application embedded that will enable you to format a fake memory stick (you are still advised to use an original pro duo stick). Note 4 The U.P.T. installer now has an option embedded that will enable you to remove an older Pandora/U.P.M.S setup from your stick without having the need to reformat and remove the IPL settings. Note 5 If your psp is a TA-082 and running firmware 3.80M33+ you will not be able to use the reboot function from within Ultimate Loader. Note 6 The UPTInstaller now has a built-in Random Serial Number© generator for you PSP's battery, this is very useful if you have lost your eeprom or did not make a backup. Note 7 UPT now disables the Battery Menu for the latest Slim & Lite models know as TA-085v2 & TA-088. Note 8 A new Nand & IDStorage backup feature has been implemented into Ultimate Loader. Note 9 If using any firmware version below 3.80M33 there is no need to install Fatmsmod.prx, the installer will check the firmware version you are using and display the appropriate splash screen. Note 10 If using any firmware version below 4.01-2 M33 there is no need to install Fatmsmod.prx, the installer will check the firmware version you are using and display the appropriate splash screen. Note 11 Before using UPTInstaller v4.3, you must remove any custom themes or custom prx files that are flashed to flash0 & flash1, this includes any PTF themes you have installed, failing to do this can have very unwanted side effects when upgrading to 3.90 via Pandora. REMOVE ALL CUSTOM PTF THEMES FROM THE SYSTEM BEFORE INSTALLING.

Installation Of Ultimate Pandora's Tool

1. Switch on your psp. 2. Make sure your psp is set to run the Sony NP9660 umd iso driver if you are running 3.52cfw or above. 3. Scroll to the USB icon and connect to the computer. 4. Back up the entire contents of your memory stick to a safe folder on your computer (just to keep anything you may require later e.g. music etc). 5. Disable the psp from the computer. 6. Scroll to System Settings and press X, then scroll to Format Memory Stick and press X to format the stick. 7. After the memory stick has been formatted scroll back to the USB icon and connect to the computer. If you are using a fake memory stick follow the next steps if not go to number 13. 8. If you are using a fake memory stick copy in to the ISO folder the U.P.T. cso file (this is just drag and drop). 9. Disconnect from the computer. 10. Scroll to the Game icon in the XMB and then scroll to the Memory Stick icon press X and then press X again to run the installer. 11. Once UPT have booted, you will have the option to Format Memory Stick, do this or press X to enter the main menu, then scroll to the option that says format & repartition memory stick and format your stick. This will also create all the folders needed. 12. Scroll to the USB icon and connect to the computer. 13. Copy all the downloaded and renamed eboots on to the root of your memory stick (this is just drag and drop). The root of the memory stick is the very first level that you see when connected to the computer. 14. Open up the ISO folder and copy in to it the U.P.T. cso file (this is just drag and drop). 15. Disconnect from the computer. 16. Scroll to the Game icon in the XMB and then scroll to the Memory Stick icon press X and then press X again to run the installer. 17. If you are running firmware 3.80M33+ follow the steps below if not just press X again. 18. If running 3.80M33+ the software will detect this and a different screen will appear (this will enable you to run the IPL) it will flash a file to Flash0. 19. Press [] (square button) and the installer will backup some files to Flash0 and then flash some files to your memory stick, if not done you will not be able to write the IPL. 20. Press X and then X again. 21. Press X again to start the installer. 22. The screen should tell you that the fatms371.prx is installed so press X. 23. Run step 1 choosing to load the desired IPL (the multi IPL is advised as this will allow the battery to be used as a normal one, for a slim you need to be running at least 3.90M33-2 firmware), when done go to the next step. 24. If you already own a Pandora battery you can miss step2, if not run step2. 25. Run step 2 and your battery serial will automatically be backed up to the memory stick if it is not already there (this will be needed to convert your battery back if needed), and then convert your battery to a Pandora and go back to main menu. 26. After making the Pandora battery plug in the AC cable and remove your battery. 27. Run step 3 to install the firmware that is required to make your U.P.T. or if you wish you can run the full installer and miss step 4 (this may take awhile but be patient as long as the memory stick light is flashing it is still working). 28. If you already own a Pandora/U.P.T. memory stick and only wish to upgrade select the option Clean MS for fresh install by pressing X 29. Run step 3 to install the firmware that you will require. 30. Run step 4 to install all of the application that you might require if in the previous step you choose to only load the U.P.T. without utilities. 31. Exit installer.

Installation of IPL on Extra Memory Sticks
If you wish to use additional memory sticks but leave your battery set up as a Pandora one so
that you can leave the one that contains the U.P.T. files on all you have to do is

1. Connect to your AC supply. 2. Insert the memory stick you wish to use. 3. Switch on you psp. 4. Format the memory stick from with in the XMB. 5. Go to the USB icon and connect to the computer. 6. Open up the ISO folder and place in there the U.P.T. cso file 7. Disconnect from the computer. 8. Go to the Game icon in the XMB and run the installer. 9. If you are going to use a fake memory stick use the format option from within the U.P.T. installer first. 10. Run step 1 choosing to load the multi ipl, this will then allow you to use this memory stick as a normal one with your Pandora battery (you do not need to install all of the files).
