How to update the official firmware on PSP

[King Leonidas]

Hi,

I have psp 3000, I see many topics on how to downgrade a PSP, but nobody ever considered upgrading. there are information available for installing custom firmware on psp, I like some of the new features Sony has released in his latest firmware, please explain me how to upgrade your PSP firmware with a USB Cable.

Thank you

It is recommended to update the firmware (software system) to its PSP to fix bugs, faults, improve / add features and to play new games and more. you can use Network Update to update official firmware on psp, This option allows to update the firmware through a wireless Internet connection. Note:If you have an unofficial or custom firmware, it is possible that the official update does not work.
