I bought a psp off of Amazon, unaware it was on custom firmware. I recently tried to play Fate/Extra, and got an error saying something along the lines of could not load the game error 8002148.The number is right, wording is approximate.
I have read this is caused by my system not being upgraded to play the game, but am not sure if this is true. I tried updating anyway, because I figure it wouldn't hurt, and found out I can't. This is how I found out I got stuck with custom firmware.
>_<. It claims I have the latest version. I know I don't, or I could play the game. I have tried to set umd iso to normal. It didn't work. The current custom firmware is 5.50 gen d3.
How do I get my psp to play the game/update? I've heard the game itself should have been able to install the update and overwrite the custom firmware, but it can't. It says 'I have the latest version' and won't let me.
And if I have to remove the custom firmware, how do I do that? Do I just get the legit update from Sony's site, and overwrite it? Or is there something else I have to do?
By the way, there is nothing wrong with the game. I tried it on my brother's psp, and it loaded. My app will load older titles, but not Fate.
