Here's some good news for the PSP community, homebrew coders Xenogears and Becus25 has released Custom Firmware Enabler. This program will enable the functions of M33 CFW using ChickHen except for Recovery and Pops. It also works with TA-088v3 motherboards, but sadly it doesn't support the PSP 3000 yet. To install the program:

Good job sony, you made a new update that can now do all the functions of the custom firmware M33 (except load homebrew, iso, psx games for free, emulators, .ctf themes, recovery mode,....and the list goes on) but good job anyway :D......
No!!! if you say it can do all that a real cfw can do, then why did you start saying: except....!!!!!!

This enabler does not overwrite anythin in flash0. Instead it writes new files in the free space of flash0. So the chance of bricking your PSP is about the same as bricking it while setting a picture as wallpaper from the XMB. Not really big

while installing these prx's, its also writing command lines in the bin files, if this program writes the bin files first, then the installers drops his or her psp or disrupts the flashing of anyway, then the program cannot install the prx's, then youve got a semibrick... srry

Whats the difference between the 3k and 2k with TA-088v3 motherboards?
Why does this not work on the 3k?
Is it to protect the 3k from piracy or does it jusst takes more time to enable this for the 3000?
Does anyone care to explain it to me?

None of that is relevant. That's why you can't boot directly into CFW, not why you can't use HEN to load it.

i like how people re-use the M33 files, why not start something new? make a new firmware? dont get me wrong M33 is a damn good CFW, lets see what the other devs can make, and im sure if some of you got together on an IM session, you guys could make something REALLY good.
just my thought, great progress though.

i dont think you realized how complicated the programs that make this work. the raw data is too long to fit on an email if its not compressed, never mind IM's doing anything.
M33 is the top of many years of work, you dont just "start something new"
they've allready made something REALLY good, its called CFW.

Well I'm not sure how long you have been in the scene, but if its been over a year you should recall the who GEN firmwares, and how the creators were pretty much crucified. I never tried it myself, but from what I've heard it wasn't that bad.

Hey guys..

» This is why
The m33 is written to the flash alright. But none of the old files are lost
(If you try to install CFW permanently it would result in a bicked psp). this is why your PSP still boots into OFW!
but you dont need to write it to the flash0 again next time you wanna use m33, its still there.

» hm..
So, basically, I just need to press O (to flash M33 cfw into the flash) the first time, then the second time and so on I just need to press X?

When you install it for the first time you will have to press O to install it and then X to run it. But thats only the first time. Now you jusst have to use the X option every time you wanna use m33

» Bah!..
I still dont get why this doesnt work with 3000.
There are two fakts that makes me belive that a 3000 version should be possible.
1. The chickhen is working on it. (there you have the kernelmode)
2. The does not overwrite anything and will caus any brick.
And its loaded the sama way chickhen is loaded... almost. you do not boot into the custom firmware.
You load it from a homebrew... And the "Homebrew enabler" works on 3000 right!
And yeahl. I know that those old iso loadres doesnt work on slim or bright due to 1.5 kernel.
Well this should be able to work caus it built for the same kernel. and the same frimware. and the same friggin HEN!

» It's relatively simple.
If you look through the files M33 installs, it has different versions (for a few PRXes) for the 1000 and 2000 series. There are no 3000 series files yet, since nobody outside of M33 has bothered to make those yet.

Doesnt 3k share pretty much the same system as the 2k? they use the same mobo and they have the same firmware. They should have pretty much in common.
I thought that the microphone and color screen/options was the only big changes. and these things does not need to be touched. doesnt 2k and 3k use the same kernel?

previously unhackable PSP-2000's have TA-088v3's
the PSP-3000's have TA-090v2's
maybe simular BUT NOT THE SAME!!

That's why we had to wait to be able to decrypt the 3000 modules from an OFW, too. They're different files.

» this is why 3k doesnt work
to anser to your question
let me cast your minds back to when they put a 2k processor in a 3k remember they could only get the screen to work through remotejoy
bassicaly long story short the files the 3k uses are different
if you wont to see for your self get a phat or slim a copy of psar dumper (the one with 3k moduel support) and you will get a folder called F0 in side that is the different prxs
get it from DarK AleX's website

ISO support for the 2000's only. And I hope it stays that way. If you want to pirate get an older version of PSP. I dont know about you people, but I eventually want good games.

When people say "they want custom firmware," what they REALLY mean is "they want to totally illegally pirate games," as this user brazenly demonstrates.
I can't help but get the feeling that some people make homebrew games (all of which seem about as fun as watching paint dry) just so pirates can say "Yeah man these homebrew games are GREAT! Go get custom firmware so you can play these great homebrew games!"
It's kinda like how a gang could get a hold of some real estate, serve the worst food available, and set up a sign that says "Joe's Restaurant" just so they could say they run a legitimate business.

so wat's the answer?
so wat's the answer?
» Ill do it for you:
To install the program:
* Download the file in the link below
* Copy the CFWEnabler folder to your ms0:/PSP/GAME/ directory.
* Start ChickHEN R2 (minimum) from the Photo Directory
* Run the app called "CFW Loader for ChickHEN". After you run the program, it will ask you to install the needed CFW modules to flash0, press circle and then "x" to start the CFW.
For more info about the release, please read the README provided in the download.
CustomFirmware Enabler 1.0 to 5.03 ChickHen by Xenogears and Becus25.
What is?
A program that activates the functions of the M33 custom firmware using ChickHen.
What do I need?
- A PSP Slim (Slim only works with, regardless of the plate you have)
- Firmware version 5.03.
- ChickHen R2 (minimum)
Compatibility:
- The functions are the same with the 5.00 M33, all work except:
- Recovery (Se cree may be anticipated that an alternative power to set the homebrew CFW)
- Pops (PSX Games)
Installation:
- Copy the folder to your psp CFWEnabler in X: / PSP / GAME /
To be like this: X: / PSP / GAME / CFWEnabler / EBOOT.PBP
How to use:
Starts ChickHen from the picture section. Then start the homebrew called for CFW Loader ChickHEN.
The first time you need CFW to install modules into the flash memory with the option Circle (Do not override, simply add modules, it is a safe process.)
Then press X to start the CFW.
You are in a CFW!
FAQ:
- Can load isos? - Yes, yes you can.
- Do you like my PSP Slim is *****ing plate? - Yes, it does not matter.
- Does my PSP3000? - No, not working, at least.
- Can you break my console? - It is true that he writes some files in internal memory, but does not overwrite anything, so this is not problematic.
- When you turn off the console I have to repeat the procedure? - Yes, you have to repeat it, but do not have Flash modules each time.
- And you can not prevent either procedure? - Could be avoided if we could do an IPL compatible, so you need information PreIPL.
- Is expected to be in the future rectify the current problems? - It is possible, but is not guaranteed anything.
- Does the M33 SDK? - Yes, it works.
Acknowledgments:
- A Dark_AleX for the M33 modules.
- Especially him, who knows who he is, and that is part of the credit for helping him.
Next time dont be so lazy.

» ChickHEN R2 and CFW Enabler 1.0
Hello, I just purchased a 3000 and a 2000 psp. I have the 2000 working with the chickHEN R2 and the CFW Enabler. Everything checks out even in the systems info. So I have the ISO folder in the ms:root with the iso games in the folder. The games appear when I get ready to load them but when loading the games the screen turns black and turns the psp off. Any suggestions? I am really new to this and would appreciate any comments. I dont know if this has anything to do with not having a pandora battery or am I missing something. Again everything from chickhen to cfw works. Just no luck with the games.
