    Which fullflash for an original Pandora?

    Aha, a very dim ray of hope. Thank you Levi and Neelix. The buttons have three sides visible with Pandora lid partly open and the whole turned over so that the back edge is the highest part. If I run  a finger along each of those three sides they all are smooth, that is the buttons do not...

    Which fullflash for an original Pandora?

    Thank you each very much for you replies.   Sadly my creeping "Old Age" continues to defeat me. This time the problem seesms to be related to lack of use of importqant parts of the Pandora. I dont actually remember using the shoulder buttons but now I want to use one they both seem immovable...

    Which fullflash for an original Pandora?

    Having carelessly deleted a lot of the items  which were in my  beloved Pandora, I would like to do a fullflash to try to restore its functionality. Will the latest version (SuperZaxxon 1.71) be suitable on such a small  Pandora?  (This is a big step for me, having never done it before, but the...

    3D printing a Pandora case

    Congratulations, from one who watches without any likelihood of actually doing it. ( but I do belong to a group of interested people based in SW Western Australia).

    Pandora in unstoppable loop

    Hi all, especially Double7 and Link; Sorry, I thought I repled to these a couple of days ago, and later found that I had not actually sent the mail. However until now I had nothing to report. This is not particularly good news, except for a moment, trying the Hotfix 6, I thought it reported...

    Pandora in unstoppable loop

    Thank you Link, I *was* getting a bit discouraged; have not solved the charge battery problem. However there is still just about 4v there, and I believe that Hotfix 6 can manage a Wifi dongle for a Pandora with defective wifi, so it would be more sensible to use it. It is possible that I may get...

    Pandora in unstoppable loop

    Hi Wally, - also in Australia! I grew up in Melbourne. I don't think I am quite with you on this. What I am trying to do is "Replace the firmware" as at pandorawiki.org/Introduction_to_firmware, using a zip file. What I was doing earlier was using a pandora-rootfs.tar.bz2 as at...

    Pandora in unstoppable loop

    Hi DaMummy and ED I have followed all the suggestions, and never at any stage did the rhythmic display of blue boxes stop. I formatted two cards on WinXP with sdfmt3_1 But no change in the behaviour with either one. To populate the cards I used Linux, I don't know how to do it on Win...

    Pandora in unstoppable loop

    Dear friends, my beloved Pandora is very sick. It has its original software (Hotfix5) in the NAND, and I usually run it from SD card. It is one of those with bad original wifi, and has a usb dongle supplied. Running from SDcard worked well for two or three earlier hotfixes, but while...

    wifi dongle fails with password

    Belatedly replying to myself - I had to give up on the wifi from the Mac Mini. I bought a battery operated Router (Chinese). Into that I plug the 3G modem (Huawei E169) and it makes a wifi signal which the pandora can access even when it is passworded. My other computers including the Mac Mini...

    Release Firmware release 1.5, beta 1 released

    Lately I have been doing SD card and running from there using the instructions at http://pandorawiki.o...from_an_SD_card which are similar to the above but also it has a section 'Set up your boot.txt' which is needed to get the prompt to include boot from SD. I must thank Notaz and all...

    wifi dongle fails with password

    Thank you double7. The linux systems I use (Crux and Knoppix) do not have that so I hesitated for a while. However after i deleted it it soon made a new one and gave me the opportunity to give it a password, so that is how that problem went away. It was not the main point so i didn't give...

    wifi dongle fails with password

    Hi, First an apology - I didnt realise when i downloaded the image that it was Hotfix7Alpha1. Due to my previous sinful life I have a fixed objection to flashing a NAND (which has survived even an unbrickable one). So even though I since found Hotfix6 I decided to keep going - (lazy...

    New Pandora owner? Make this thread your first stop.

    Hi Gruso, It is very helpful. However some of us are newbier than others. I was stymied by the term "Shoulder Button" - not in the little paper booklet. After much too long I found a link in the User Manual in the last line of the paragraph Miscellaneous which is an empty page in the Wiki...

    Charger information needed, please (Split from other topic)

    Gruso, on 08 November 2011 - 09:33 AM, said: I gather you have already found yourself a PSP charger, but if not, you can pick one up at JB Hifi or EB Games. Both chains appear to have outlets in your neck of the woods. :) Thank you Gruso, -both are within 3K of home too. However as yet I am...

    Charger information needed, please (Split from other topic)

    Thank you Prometheus, Halcyon and scoobydoo. I had better confess that I had to google for PSP charger. My background is not yet gaming. Just to say it will be a while till I post again as I need to get internet connectivity on the Pandora. I will seek help later on that probably. cheers, clare

    Charger information needed, please (Split from other topic)

    Hi, I am new, happy to meet you all. Just got my Pandora, and have been in a lot of trouble due to failure of the battery charger. I see I am not alone, but didn't know that as my only web access was unreliable broadband. Have improved that a bit today. I sent the charger back; and have been...

    $1 Pandora.

    That helps a lot, thank you Invader Amoto; But actually I simply chose the cheapest as I wanted to contribute a little rather than nothing. Also it implied that I would get at least more than a minimal logo. I have a lifetime history of having trouble following computer instructions so lately...
