Transfer Photos from Phone to PSP: Complete Guide

The PSP lacks Bluetooth file transfer & native Wi-Fi Direct. Use one of these methods:

Method 1: Memory Stick / MicroSD + Adapter (Most Reliable)

1. Phone → PC: USB cable / Google Photos / Dropbox / ShareDrop.io / KDE Connect.
2. PC → PSP: Connect PSP via USB → "USB Connection" on XMB → Copy photos to PSP/PHOTO/ (or PICTURE/).
3. Or: Remove Memory Stick Duo / MicroSD (with adapter) → PC Card Reader → Copy → Reinsert.

Method 2: PSP FTP / Web Server (Homebrew Required)

1. Install Custom Firmware (CFW 6.61 PRO-C2 / ME / LME) or HEN.
2. Run PSPFTPD (FTP server) or SimpleHTTP (web server) homebrew.
3. Phone: FTP client (Material Files, FX Explorer) or Browser → https://PSP_IP:port/ → Upload to ms0:/PICTURE/.

Method 3: USB OTG (Android Only)

1. USB OTG Adapter → USB Flash Drive.
2. Phone: Copy photos to Flash Drive.
3. Flash Drive → PSP (via USB cable in USB Host mode? No. PSP is Device, not Host. Cannot read flash drives directly).
4. Correction: PSP cannot read USB drives. Use Method 1 or 2.

Format Requirements

• Format: JPEG (Baseline/Progressive), PNG, GIF (static), BMP, TIFF.
• Resolution: Max 4096x4096. Thumbnails auto-generated.
• Folder: ms0:/PICTURE/ or subfolders.

Best: Phone → PC (cable/cloud) → PSP (USB cable). No homebrew needed.
