How to Upgrade Any Modded PSP to ARK-5 CFW - Overclocking & More!

This tutorial covers how to upgrade a previously modified PSP's installation of Custom Firmware (CFW) to the latest ARK-5 CFW! This video covers three different options depending on your PSP setup. Upgrading from ARK-4 to ARK-5 is the quickest and easiest thanks to the ARK_UPDATE application. Most consoles with a working L-trigger and a Memory Stick will be able to utilize Despertar Del Cementerio, allowing you to create a nice recovery tool and update all in one go! Finally, consoles with a broken L-trigger or PSP Go consoles that do not have a Memory Stick installed are covered thanks to Chronoswitch Downgrader. By the end you should have a modified, upgraded, and overclock capable console thanks to ARK-5! Along with a side of brick-recovery thanks to Despertar Del Cementerio being installed. If you need to install ARK-5 from scratch on an unmodified system, check out the previous guide here:    • How to Mod Any PSP on Firmware 6.61 or Low...   #PSPModding #ARK5 #CFW This video has been made with Fair Use in mind and has been created as an educational piece of media. -------------------- Timestamps! 0:00 - Intro 2:43 - Prerequisites 5:18 - Checking Current Firmware 7:02 - Upgrading from ARK-4 9:32 - Upgrading from Old CFW via Despertar Del Cementerio 21:26 - Upgrading from Old CFW via Chronoswitch 29:53 - Installing Despertar Del Cementerio 36:12 - ARK's CFW Features 39:51 - Custom Launcher with Themes 40:57 - Overclocking 46:35 - Outro -------------------- Hardware Used for This Tutorial!
