Misc How do I backup a PSP custom theme and keep it while upgrading my PSP to the latest CFW?

[AzraelJR]

Hi guys,

I recently found my old PSP and thought I start gaming on it again to relive memories.

I was wondering, I had installed a custom theme previously but I wish to preserve it while I get the latest CFW (ARK-4?).

Any ideas?

I am on 3.80 M33.

Did you check if you still have the theme's files on your memory stick? If so you could just back them up from there and call it a day. Otherwise enter recovery mode on your CFW (should be holding right shoulder button while powering it on), enable USB mode, and copy every file from Flash0 and Flash1 and somewhere in there will be the theme's files.
Once it's on a PC it should be fairly easy to find by looking for the image files.

I tried copying out from Flash1 VSH theme custom_theme.dat file and renamed it to ptf extension.

Any ideas how to confirm it is the correct them?

Because the wallpaper doesn't look correct.
