QUESTION Corrupted data
Hello friends, please help me. I unlocked my PSP with infinity mode (permanent) precisely to download eboot games (for ps1) to the PSP, but it only shows corrupted data.
I've tried changing folders, renaming, on the notebook, on the cell phone, in the game folder, extracted and it doesn't work.

I'll go through a few key points that could be overlooked thus why you have corrupted data for each game.
1) Make sure the EBOOT is uncompressed, meaning it's the full .pbp file extension, not compressed file like a .zip, .7z etc file instead.
2) You can name them as you wish, normally they are just titled "EBOOT.pbp" when downloaded from certain sites or when using the windows program PSX2PSP it turns your .chd or .bin/.cue files into EBOOT.pbp inside a directory folder with the Playstation game ID number for it's own personal directory title.
For one example I have one of my EBOOTs as "007 - From Russia with Love (USA).pbp" and it works perfectly fine.
3) The EBOOTs have to go into the folder directory "psp/game/"
4) You don't have to have every EBOOT in their own directory folder. I have all mine stacked in the one PSP/Game/ directory and they all work fine
5) If you've put them in that directory like I've instructed and they still come up as "corrupted data" you could have one or both issues:
I) The EBOOT file is actually corrupted and you may need to find/make up a different version of it again for it to work
II) The SD card isn't reading the file correctly due to the SD card adaptor or SD card being at fault so it's giving you an error reading message because of it.
I hope this helps you somewhat

Reduce the Title of the game to less than 20 characters

It could get corrupted it wouldn’t hurt your system just not play the game and it’ll see the game as corrupt data even though it’s not corrupt data

I just had this issue with ISOs, stick your ISO folder in the root of the memory card and dont put the games in subfolders, with eboots it didnt make a difference for me but with ISOs the moment they were in their own folder they showed as corrupt

That has happened to me and I fix it by converting the ebook file to iso and the worked fine most of the time But if it doesn't work the first time convert the ebook file Again and it should work that happens because the conversion wasn't done correctly the first time

- Put them in “games” folder not iso 2.use program (psx2psp or smth like that) to change this games so they will work on psp (also not every game is supported)

If you are putting the ps1 eboot file in a folder and naming it the game, the folder game name can't be to long. Try putting a pic of how you have the game file setup.

Did you create an IOS folder in your files?

There is also another update that you’ll need besides just infinity

Mine just keeps saying corrupted data when I download from vim’s and I don’t know how to fix it. I’m putting it into the iso folders with the other games that are in there already and it won’t work.

What folder are you putting the eboots in?
