Ok, I have firmware 2.71 and want the mod chip. Is it 100% sure that I could update to firmware 2.8 and still have the U.P. run properly.
Thanks! |

You might also want to have someone solder it for you, considering you're 9 years old.

My friend has a 2.80 PSP with the mod chip.
Some advice to you though, Take up a course in soldering, Its a lot more difficult than it sounds.
Big risk installing it, If you want Homebrew then simply sell your 2.71 on ebay outlining the benefits to noobs with the web etc..
And then once sold search: "PSP 2.00" "PSP 1.51" PSP "1.52", People dont look in these places and you get a very good bargain.
Anway, Good luck with your modchip plan, Could be successful!,
