Image unavailable (removed by its host) Tip for identifying a PSP thanks to its Datecode Warning... even if you have a flashable PSP, some permanent custom firmwares (CFW) are only compatible with certain PSP versions (PSP100x or PSP200x for example). Get informed before any flashing

To this day no PSP300x and PSP GO are flashable. This mini guide will help you determine flashable or non-flashable PSPs among the PSP100x and PSP200x. (x being different depending on the region. In europe it's 4, so PSP1004, 2004, etc...) What is the Datecode? The Datecode is an identification of the PSP that you can find by removing your PSP's battery. Image unavailable (removed by its host) If your Datecode is: Below 7C = PSP flashable 7C = PSP flashable 7D = PSP flashable 8A = PSP flashable
8B = PSP flashable 8C = PSP not flashable 8D = PSP not flashable
9A = PSP not flashable Above 9A = PSP not flashable Ok, that's all well and good, but not flashable what exactly is it? You won't be able to install a permanent Custom firmware permanent only a HEN (non-permanent) See you soon!
