PSP - Image 1Heads up to everyone looking forward to Team M33's latest Custom Firmware Update. Update 2 was cool enough but now... Over at the PSPX Russian site, it's just been revealed that their anticipated Custom Firmware 3.52 M33-3 comes out tomorrow August 19th.

One of its biggest updates is support on popsloader 3.30. But before we get ahead of ourselves, here's a sneek peek of the changelog that's been posted online (now translated to English):

Recovery Menu:

  • Added processor speed - 75 and 133
  • Added access to flash2 and flash3
  • Added "vshmenu" allowing you to dump a UMD to a computer

XMB:

  • Added support for UMD VIDEO images using vshmenu Selection (!)

Keep your eyes peeled. If all goes right, it just might be another big day for the homebrew community tomorrow!

Don't have M33 installed yet. Can I replace Dark Alex's 3.40 firmware with M33 simply by using Update #3 or do I need to install original M33, then use the 3 updates? Thanks.

 » Flash2 and Flash3

It's been long rumored that the PSP had hidden Flash2, & Flash3 memory areas.
Flash2 and Flash3 are empty, so the assumable reason for these drives are probably for storage of future features on the XMB.
Information on drives:
- Flash2 = 900 kbs
- Flash3 = 800kbs

So basically this means we have extra space.

So by your logic, they should go and change ALL of their news items that posted upcoming releases because they are now released.

Wake up dude. This news item was posted BEFORE the release was up on the official website.

Uh, no you see you're singling me out because I'm one of the few people that aren't afraid to state facts even if those facts go against being a brown nosing sheep.
Then the brown nosing sheep, who can't see past their noses, because they're so far buried in some coders behind, get upset, because it's too hard for them to actually use logic, and so they have to attack me, but without any actual counter points to prove me wrong, just juvenile insults that prove that I'm right.
This is great. Keep posting, you're making my day.

   Re: bc (Unregistered) - 2007-08-19

it's downgrade, and yes you have to go to 1.5 before you go to any CFW.

   Re: Snarg (Unregistered) - 2007-08-19

And as for the rest of your question fsd.
Yes an older PSP would be better.
2.80 or earlier would be best since lumines might be difficult to find, but 3.30 or earlier will still do, you just may have to do some hunting.
Anything higher than 3.30 is useless (for now) as far as homebrew is concerned.

Already installed the update a number of hours ago, been watching umd video dumps perfectly. Only issue that occurred was after viewing video on one occasion it ceased the reboot psp update.prx on the vsh menu. Could be a conflict with Recovery 3.40 LE adapted for 3.52 M33. I have retested and the problem hasn't occurred again, so it may be an isolated incident. Would be interested if anyone else has vsh prx replacement problems.

Hi, can someone please help me!

I wanna update my poploader and i don't know how to do the following: -

" Extract the following prx of a firmware: /kd/popsman.prx, /kd/pops.prx, /vsh/modules/libpspvmc.prx and /vsh/modules/pafmini.prx and copy them to /seplugins/popsloader/ with names like popsman3XX, pops3XX.prx, libpspvmc3XX.prx, pafmini3XX.prx, where XX is 40, 51, or 52. "

So please can someone whos done this update just send me those files and i'll put it in the plugins folder as i don't understand how to decypt the firmware.

Thanks, very much appreciated.

Thanks Again!


   Re: bc (Unregistered) - 2007-08-19
 » need two items

Ok, you need to get psardumper and PBP Extractor to do this. First download the official firmware to be used (3.30) and use PBP Extractor to get the DATA.PSAR file. t decrypt) files from 3.00. Next, place psardumper in the GAME folder of PSP and put the 3.30 DATA.PSAR file into the root of your memory stick. Start up the psp and go to GAME folder to run psardumper and press CIRCLE to extract the files. Once it is done you can get all of the files that you need and change the 3xx into whatever firmware you extracted (3.30 in this case).

 » BRICK MY PSP??

In README_EN.TXT :

"As facts are better than words, this program may refuse to work on your system if you:

- Downloaded it from ps3news.
- You are an active member of that forums's page.
- You visit frequently that page.

In last case, and only last case, the problem will be fixed if you delete browser cache of both,
psp and pc, and stop visiting that site.

Other cases of BAN are described in the LICENSE.TXT.
Not respecting the license will bring the PSP to BRICK, because the program will refuse to run."

Who the ***** they think they are?

Please read this, you will be excited. When you click this link, http://xrl.us/ezymoney you will go to a website that will show you how to sign up for another website that pays you 2 - 45$ (PER) to do surveys, sign up for trial offers, and test products.
Companies such as ebay pay CC to have people try their offers, and when you complete an offer, CC simply passes the money onto you. By spending an average of 3-4 hours a week on cascrate,
I have made 472$ in May, 412$ in June, and 271$ (SO FAR) in July. You get paid in real checks from "KNGSIDE MEDIA" every month that you earn 10 dollars or more. It may seem too good to be true,
but I assure you it IS true. Also, with their referral program, you can refer people by sending them your link (you get when you sign up) and for every buck they earn, you get 20 cents also! (Think how much money you can make if you have 100 people making five bucks a day)
You do not have to enter your credit card or social security number. Nothing Harmful can come from CC. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE 18 OR OLDER, I AM 15 YEARS OLD AND REFERRING PEOPLE, AND I MAKE THIS MUCH MONEY A MONTH
JUST SPENDING A COUPLE MINUTES A DAY ON THE COMPUTER! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR READING THIS.
Think it's a scam? Read this(from the website) "We assure you that this is not a scam! Companies need consumers to try and review products, services, and websites and are willing to pay money to have them do so.
Most of the time you're asked to do this without any compensation, what we do is take the money companies give us for YOUR participation, and give you back up to 75% of it!"
There are alot of websites like this, I have tried almost all of them and this really is the best, and legit one.In addition there is a new UK section opened with more then $200 worth of free off
