while this is a monumental breakthru (only superceded by the monumentalness of the original pandora kit), this brings bad news with it: Dark Alex will retire again after releasing his 1.50 plugin. (remember: he said that after 3.60, he was gonna release only 3 more things: another custom firmware, which is out already; a pandora for the slim, which is this one here; and a 1.50 plugin, which i'm expecting tomorrow.)
Well, dark alex has quit 5 times now, so maybe he'll unquit a 5th time :D
Oh, and before I forget: Thanks for everything, dark alex (and to the homebrew teams in general!)

To wake up of the cemetery/Universal Unbricker for Psp Slim and Psp fat
Installation:
- If already you have one memory stick of pandora, sáltate this step, on the contrary:
Formatea one memory stick using herramient mspformat of C+D or alternatively some other
alternative tool that allows to move the partition to a distance of 250~ KB of the first sector.
It retires memory stick, desconectae usb, and returns to connect usb already memory stick.
It creates the folders /PSP and /PSP/GAME
- Copy despertar_cementerio to /PSP/GAME
- Obten following updates of Sony: 1.50, 3,40 and 3,71, and copialos in the root with the names
150.PBP, 340.PBP and 371.PBP
- Firmware with support Executes the program in custom 2.XX or 3.XX.
Asegurate that kernel this position to firmware superior, or you will receive a message diciendote that
the program require 2,71 like minimum.
- Once finished the process, you will have in the root a file llamdo msipl.bin
If you already have one memory stick of pandora, you can saltarte this step, since ipl is he himself.
On the contrary, uiliza the tool msinst of C+D to install ipl in memory stick,
or alternatively dd of UNIX uses the commando, or some program like winhex to write ipl
in sector 16 of the PU.
- You can erase 340.PBP and 150.PBP by the root if you want, no longer will be used more.
Nevertheless, it leaves 371.PBP, since it will be used by unbricker.
- You already have list memory stick of universal Pandora to desbrickear psp fat and psp slim.
Single you have left the battery, to transform a normal battery into a battery of Pandora, uses
the C+D tool if your firmware supports kernel 1,50, or uses the tool of cory149 in
opposite case.
The created battery and memory stick will work in any present PSP.
-------
Process of desbriqueo. The menu has four options (note: in psp slim will not see the menu)
- M33 Presses 3,71 X to install. In psp slim, due to the impossibility to draw in the screen
with kernel mixed of 1.50/3.40, the installation will be blind, but they will be used leds stops
to indicate activity to the user. Once pulsation X, you will see the LED orange ignite, that means that this reading
update 371.PBP. Once finished, you will see leds both, the orange and the green one to move intermittently.
That does not mean that there is activity of wlan or memory stick, simply is done artificially by the program
in order to indicate activity.
In psp fat, once finished the process, will be requested to press X to extinguish the PSP to you. In psp
slim nevertheless will be extinguished automatically. It reinitiates, you will receive pantallazo blue, presses I circulate,
and you will already be in 3.71 M33.
- It presses Or to install 3,71 original. The rest of the process is like the one of the installation of 3,71 M33.
-] Presses [to dumpear nand to the file nand-dump.bin. Once finished the process, psp will be extinguished single.
- Nand-dump.bin Presses L+R+HOME+start to recover nand from the file
EYE: this process is dangerous and single no other thing must become in case of extreme emergency if works,
and ONLY using dump previously dumpeado of your PSP, you do not use the DUMP of another PSP.
On the contrary that the restaurador of nand of Pandora, that was a logical restaurador, this restaurador
he is physical: it will try to make an exact clone 100% of dump.
If dump of psp is not yours, you will have brick or one psp with idstorage corrupt, depending on firmware.
If at the moment of the restoration, your psp has some block damaged more than at the moment of the dumpeo,
also you could have brick, depending on which block has been damaged. It is why this single method
it is advised in cases of emergency or when utilizes dumps that you have done more or less recently.
Fat as in psp has been proven successfully as much in psp slim.

» It's a pity though
I do enjoy the fact that psp slims can now be utterly unbricked, but this means that Dark AleX has only one release left before he leaves. Whether or not he continues as M33 is up to him, but it'll be sad to see him go again.

There are two things I wonder about:
1. "this unbricker will bring your PSP BACK to 3.71".
Why bring BACK? 3.71 is actually the newest firmware.
2. Why the heck you need 3.40 when Slim doesn't even support this FW?

This is a sample of what can be found in the "english" readme:
"Once finished, u will have msipl.bin on root."
I'm not sure about the rest of you, but "u" doesn't qualify as a personal pronoun in my, english-literate world. Also, the amount of abbreviations makes for a very unprofessional document. Never assume your audience knows what the hell you mean.
Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

» read the damn readme already
it tells you everything it does. It can restore a dump of your NAND (no matter what PSP you own, but it must be YOUR dump). it can install the OFFICIAL 3.71, AND it can install 3.71 M33. On ANY PSP. You must have a pandora battery and memory stick to use it though.
The only thing this program is lacking really, is a key press for installing official 1.50 (of course for PSP 100x models only). This would make it a TRULY universal pandora/unbricker.
A Bonus on top of that would be the ability to run the Key cleaner program from it so people may attempt that before having to resort to restoring a NAND dump (possibly very dangerous)
