Nilzxx sent us a message recently about a YouTube video he created for fans of the homebrew scene. In it, you'll actually get to see a real-time installation of Dark_Alex's 3.03 OE-A' custom firmware.

As he sent in his email, Nilzxx tells us,

I filmed how easy it is to upgrade to OE-A'. I think that some people think it's too much work to upgrade again and won't do it because of that. Well, this shows that you can easily upgrade in 1 minute. I also show how easy it is to overclock the CPU for UMD and ISO games.


The one minute thing is an exaggeration on his part, but we don't mind. He's got some nice reggae music in the background while the PSP updates itself. It's followed by 50 Cent's "Candy Shop", which is quite a leap from reggae, but still nice to listen to.

The only thing we can't really see right now is his starting firmware, as well as a handy-dandy voiceover from the cameraman, but it's a small thing. Right now, we're just happily entertained by it. Enjoy the video, and if you're itching to know more about upgrading, here's a link to one of the tutorials for it on our forums.

Noob, it is OE-A' its a revision to OE-A . It means that there are just a few fixes, and no new features and not a new release. It just improves performance. And, if you notice the latest version of 2.71 SE-B was Se-B'' so before you report somethin or point something out, make sure you get your facts straight

You really need a video to copy 2 folders to psp/game and run it..lol. Is it me or does it just seems like noobz are getting noobier everyday. If you can't follow the the two sentence installation directions in the readme then you probably shouldn't even be setting the clock on your VCR (if anyone still has one) you could brick it..lol

The funniest thing was watching all the people that bricked their PSPs using the 3.03 OE-A "easy installer" because they where to stupid to do one extra step with the manual install. LOL!

This aint the right vid... switching from 3.03 OE-A to 3.03 OE-A' looks nothing like that! for a start, you dont have to generate any data.dxar files 8-)

by old vid i meant that this was posted as "UPDATE:" when 3.03 OE-A was released.

This is for and only for updating to 3.03 OE-A from a lower firmware being 1.5,3.02 OE-A/OE-B just to name a couple. Whoever posted this misunderstood what was said in the forums most likely or got the wrong video.

Also the updates(like from 2.71 SE-B to 2.71 SE-B') that dont require dxar files tend to only take mere seconds to install.

My PSP is running 1.5, but the firmware says 13.32 or something like that. I couldn't do an official update even if I wanted to. Can I update to the 3.03 oe? Will I be able to play my ISOs with it or will I still need to go through devhook?

Please advise. Thanks.


   Re: nicko01 (Unregistered) - 2007-01-08
 » yes.

You can, It isn't an update. it flashes the files directly bypassing sony's firmware.
Oh yea, your psp is version spoofed at 13.37 which means "leet" or elite in leetspeak.

Hey,
A few days ago I updated my PSP to 3.03 (Yeah, I know, bad move). Anyways, I was wonderin' if this firmware work with my PSP? or will it brick? I really wanna play PSX games on my PSP, but I'd rather not ruin my PSP. Any ideas anybody? Thanks for the help.

for all the confused people out there, this version will not work with any other original fw ahead of 1.50 some might like custom fw but if you download this and run it, you will have a bricked psp do not do it! since a 2.80 downgrader was released, its only months away from a 2.81~3.xx downgrader so chill out, and honestly if you do not care dont post.
