Updated at a cost

[KuroGAOH]

My PSP is somehow modded due to the fact that I can play ISO files/games.

I got a PSP Update for 6.00 and updated the PSP. After the update, I check my files and I can't see my DL'ed ISO games in my ISO document isn't detected by the PSP.

What can I do?

You need to downgrade your PSP's firmware.

There is no working 6.0 CFW at the moment. It sounds like you updated to the official firmware. As such your PSP is no longer 'modded' (for the record, PSPs don't get modded, they get their firmware hacked).

Official Firmware does not support pirated games, so unless you have someone who can downgrade you back to CFW, you're pretty much stuck with buying games.

Will downgrade.

What can I download back to 5.00? (Original firmware before change)

I actually got the same problem and uh... I consulted this video for help, and it worked. But I didn't download the files for the Magic Memory stick in his links, try looking somewhere else...

If you are downgrading you need the Magic Memory Stick and a Pandora Battery.

Hope this helps...

It's not that simple as a downgrade. you need to downgrade to an actual Custom Firmware (CFW). How you go about it depends on your model. Unless you have an orignal model you'll need to find someone who can make you a Pandora battery, most people with a hacked PSP can make these as it's a standard feature on most of the current CFW. Then you'll need to set up a memory card to flash your firmware back to custom firmware, and from there you can update to a newer CUSTOM Firmware. The only CFW tat can play current PSP releases is 5.50Gen-D with uses a bypass which prevents the games from seeing that you have an older firmware version. Other versions can play the games that it requires hacking the UMD isos with a modified EBOOT and LBA, which sounds a little beyond your level given that your PSP was 'somehow modded' I'm guessing that you're not familiar with the process if modifying UMD Isos.

If you need specific information, or to find someone local to you that can help you with the Pandora Battery and downgrade software, you can check most PSP hacking forms, PSPmod has a decent enough tutorial on how to do it yourself, and even some automated programs to do it for you once you have the Battery. Keep in mind that with any firmware modifications, it's always possible to brick your system, so if the person who flashed your PSP in the first place can help you, all the better.

The PSP came from the Philippines.

That's a problem.

I have a PSP-2000.

What next?

How much is a Pandora Battery though?

PSP 2000 will work the the pandora. Pandora batteries are made from PSP batteries. They can be flashed to a Pandora, and then changed back once you're done. It's NOT worth buying them online. Just find someone local to you on a forum that can make one. Like I mentioned the PSP hacking forms are a better place for specifics.
