We are proud to present the first custom firmware for the PSP Slim, and the first custom firmware that runs using a 3.XX IPL (3.60). 3.60 M33 for PSP Slim has all the features of 3.52 M33, except the 1.50 kernel support, as that kernel doesn't work properly on psp slim (hardware problems, screen problems). 3.60 M33 will load homebrew from GAME, GAME150 and GAME360 directories, but all will be executed with 3.60 kernel. This mean that some homebrews done specifically for the 1.50 kernel cannot work on 3.60 M33. However, the adaptation of code to 2.XX+ kernels is not difficult, and homebrew developers can port their aplications to work in these firmwares. |

time to buy a slim psp.
ORIGINAL PSP PWNS! DID U SEE ALL THE PROBLEMS THE SLIM HAS??
im gona try porting this onto the fat psp...
sinse there is a IR prx
We are proud to present the first custom firmware for the PSP Slim, and the first custom firmware
that runs using a 3.XX IPL (3.60)
3.60 M33 for PSP Slim has all the features of 3.52 M33, except the 1.50 kernel support, as
that kernel doesn't work properly on psp slim (hardware problems, screen problems).
3.60 M33 will load homebrew from GAME, GAME150 and GAME360 directories, but all will be executed
with 3.60 kernel.
This mean that some homebrews done specifically for the 1.50 kernel cannot work on 3.60 M33.
However, the adaptation of code to 2.XX+ kernels is not difficult, and homebrew developers can
port their aplications to work in these firmwares.
Included with the release is the M33 sdk for programmers.
Instalation:
The instalation is done using pandora battery and requires a fat psp with 1.50 or
custom firmware with 1.50 support to run a installer.
However once the memory stick installation is done, you can use it in whatever psp slim without
repeating the process again.
We want to thank C+D Team for having created Pandora and having opened the path to custom ipl's,
without which this cfw wouldn't exist.
Steps:
- Create a pandora battery and a pandora memory stick using the C+D team tools.
- Run the fat psp with the pandora memory stick inserted, but with a normal battery.
Copy the directories pandora_slim and pandora_slim% to PSP/GAME or PSP/GAME150.
- Download official sony firmwares 3.40 and 3.50, and put them in pandora_slim directory
with names 340.PBP and 350.PBP.
To avoid confussion: These firmwares are used ONLY to extend the memory stick pandora kernel.
NOTHING FROM THOSE FIRMWARES WILL EVER BE FLASHED ON THE SLIM.
- Run the program. It will quickly extract some prx's overwrting some of the pandora memory stick.
- Insert the pandora battery and the memory stick in the psp slim. It will boot. You won't see
anything on the screen, because that kernel doesn't support the slim screen, but it is OK, you
don't need a screen for the installation of 3.60 M33.
From here, you have 3 options:
- Press X to install M33. The process will last just few seconds, since the installer only
needs to install the M33 custom prx's and IPL. After the process is finished, the installer
will shutdown the psp automatically.
- Press L+R+triangle to uninstall M33 and go back to original 3.60. Note: this can't unbrick a
psp slim, it will just remove M33 ipl. There is currently no unbricker for the psp slim, but
we plan on doing one in the future.
After uninstallation, psp will be shutdown automatically.
- Press square to dump the PSP Slim nand. Watch out: you need 66 MB of free space in the
memory stick for this, otherwise your memory stick may end corrupted.
This option uses the team C+D nand dumper. When the memory stick orange led stops blinking,
the process will have finished, and you can either shutdown the psp, or use one of the two
previous options.
F.A.Q
Q: My homebrew doesn't work.
A: as stated above, not all homebrews work due to 1.50 kernel missing.
Wait for the programmer of that homebrew to port it to new kernels.
Q: How can i unbrick the PSP Slim?
A: if you have a semi-brick, you can restore it using recovery and flashing the corrupted files
with usb flash. There is no real unbricker for PSP Slim yet, but we plan of doing one in the
future using C+D Pandora Battery.
Q: is M33 gonna make a 3.60 cfw for the fat psp's?
A: The firmware as it is flashed in the slim psp's is only for psp slims. Whenever sony releases
an updater, we'll support both, fat and slim psp's, but we are not gonna make a custom firmware
using 3.60 slim dump, because it is not done for the fat psp. Stop listening stupid rumors of kids:
we are 103% sure that Sony will continue releasing firmware updates for all psp's.
Moreover, the 3.60 firmware was done before 3.52: the pops, for example, is a clone of the one of 3.50/3.51
So it has nothing new for fat psp's.
Q: I liked the FW, what can I do to help M33?
A: You can contribute some money for all our mem
do is get 1.50 kernel and the PSP Slim will be perfect(nearly perfected:)
Pandora's Battery WAS modified and is currently WORKING !!!!
re: (from qj post)
your brand spanking new PSP Slim + Lite will be reduced to nothing but a PSP Brick + Mortar.
This is simply untrue. Pandora's works . It has been modified.
what problems does the slim have?
These guys are good. I may have to get a new psp soon since it seems I got jacked for my old one. Nice to know that if i upgrade to a slim i can still play my homebrew.
finally a reason to buy slim..
I think sony's gonna be pissed.
Just flashed my PSP Slim, its no longer under Sony's control. :D
M33 FTW!
This is what ive been waiting for but not so hasty let see hoew reliably the slims cfw ie. audio visual out with homebrew! +D
BRICKED!!!
:-(
I was installing CFW 3.60 on my older PSP and it got BRICKED!!!
DOWN WITH THE RUSKIES!!
I hope Wildcard and LE come soon to the rescue
:-((
BRICKED!!!
:-(
I was trying to install CFW 3.60 on my old PSP and it got bricked!!!
DOWN WITH THE RUSKIES!!!
I really hope Wilcard and LE come to the rescue of PSP scene so desperately needs and yank free from m33 clutches.
:-((
@unhappy
Go get yourself some education, obviously you can't read. It says for the psp slim you dipsh1t.
Sorry, but you are really stupid then, it has been told over and over this is only for the psp slim.
no blame to the russians, blame yourself
at unhappy,
"3.60 M33 for PSP Slim" not for old PSP
That makes you a primo grade A idiot.
yesss FFFFFFFIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLZ YEAHZ I AM SOOOOO 1337 YOU DONT EVEN KNOW YES IM SO F'ING FIRST ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY... ALL YOU ARE NUBS!! HAHA NUBS!!!
Hello from france...
My slim silver? 3.60M33!! :)
Vive la team M33!!
well *****e, be carefull, the modifications donot unbrick . but one is being worked on.
I went to sleep for like 2 hours. It wasn't out at the time and I was reading how it might be coming out soon. Now I refresh the page when I woke up and it's out. Sweet!
look u guys. i think this is the first ever some ***** did not get here and say "yay first post!!!!!!!!!!" congrats u guys 4 this. btw not that i do it but can ISOs be run on this custom firmware>
I 100% appreciate everything that team M33 is doing for the psp and all there hardwork. However I dont think its right for people to be using isos on there psps. It should be for backup purposes only otherwise sony will run out of business. Maybe we should leave the psp slim alone so that whoever buys the slim will still buy original sony games.
watta retard upgrading to 3.60 m33 on old psps dumb fk you stupid dumb fk
DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING IN THE FLASH! MY NEW pspSLIM BRICKED AFTER I TRIED TO CHANGE THE gameboot.pmf....DAM>>> SONY has somekind of security to hide files/.prx's in the flash drive....DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING IN THE FLASH!

douche
+(. Amazon needs to ship their units faster.
that was fast qj, i was just about to say something.
Now... where the f*ck is 3.60 LE?
WE ARE THANKFUL
i dont have a psp slim but this is great. i really wont buy a psp slim intil full kernel access if that ever happens. but i think it might one day. if we can get this far in just a week...
i'm like 90% sure that 3.60 M33 has full kernal access lol. the only thing is that it has full kernal access to the 3.60 kernel. did you mean dual kernals? like normal 1.50 + 3.60?
Damn this.. Now I've gotta sell my old PSP quick, get some money and buy meself a new one ._. hectic times.. hectic times...
BOW DOWN TO THE PSP GODS
hackers win.
so i can run isos now??
first
need a slim
All I have to say is Excellent!
FIRST POST! always wanted to say that =D and damn, that was quick. i was hesitant to buy a psp slim, but now i have no worries! Team M33 is amazing! Im gonnabuy the starwars psp in october after i get a job, yay
I suppose it's welcome back Devhook for those apps that require 1.50, but the question is, will Devhook work in 3.60?
- U
devhook itself needs kernel access... 1.50 ....
I used Devhook to run 1.50 homebrew on my 2.60 PSP, with GTA some months ago.
And stock 2.60 firmware does not have a 1.50 kernel!
This is GREAT news!!!
Time to buy a slim!!!:p
gd work boi's. i salute the russians for this one. ill check it out n c how it works. should work great though. but personally i think Noobz & Team C&D rule!!!
What are you *****ed in the head. These guys just released a CUSTOM FIRMWARE for a system that hasnt even been out for a month yet. They rule. Not even Noobz did that (even though they did make this possible with Pandora).
I didn't expect that to be released that fast, this proves how solid M33 is! Great work!
Now we're all waiting for IrShell 3.63 with support to this CFW!
CUZ DAX TOOK WAY LONGER THAN M33 TO MAKE HIS CF FOR THE PSP
guess what genius, DAX is in M33. He made up M33 to get sony off his ass jus join teir irc chat n ask. N DAX is a legend anyway ungrateful punk
its true... dax is m33
for those that dont believe... just go on their IRC and ask.
Dark_AleX is still a HUGE Legend and a CFW pioneer. I am extremely pleased with this news and just pre-ordered the Star Wars Ceramic White. M33 is great and DAX is too, but i have to disagree. I still think DAX is COOLER :D
i admit, i dont know jack about making custom firmwares, but it seems to me that homebrew running on a kernel that's not 1.5 is seriously groundbreaking. i guess i have to give m33 credit and start using their firmwares. correct me if i'm wrong and this has been done before, but this sounds like the biggest breakthrough for the psp homebrew community ever, since it was first hacked.
all i gotta say is AMMA TRY IT ON MY FAT PSP
i know, if you can use pandora's battery to boot 1.50 from ms0, you can't use it to boot 3.60 M33 from ms0?? 64 mb nand isn't a limit on a 2+gig ms.
im firsttttttttttt
hell yee ima get one just for dis
buck yea!! so do this mean u can use a CFW on it now, or does it hav 2 be dg or sumthn???
I can't believe this is really happening. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwesome!!!!
regular psp? im not just gonna go out and buy a stupid PSP slim, No one should, its a piece of crap, that only is slimmer and more confusing, nothings wrong with the regular psp, so PUT 3.60 CUSTOM FW ON REGULAR PSP!
Q: is M33 gonna make a 3.60 cfw for the fat psp's?
A: The firmware as it is flashed in the slim psp's is only for psp slims. Whenever sony releases
an updater, we'll support both, fat and slim psp's, but we are not gonna make a custom firmware
using 3.60 slim dump, because it is not done for the fat psp. Stop listening stupid rumors of kids:
we are 103% sure that Sony will continue releasing firmware updates for all psp's.
M33, you're crazy, you know that?;) GZ
curious to see someone post here that has confirmed doing this themselves.
run all old iso's np? ps1 popsloader?
just curious to see someone who has done this im planning to buy one very shortly if so hehe
i have the battery i got pandoras memory stick but dont have the phat psp anymore what are my options? can someone upload files from their pandora stick and share or will that work?
got mine yesterday ..... [img]http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1427/1356958428_b57bcbe0dd.jpg?v+0[/img]
Can someone who is now running 3.60 M33 report on what works and who does not work?
im on it right now....let u know how it
http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1427/1356958428_b57bcbe0dd.jpg?v+0
Custom FM is great, just a few questions.
1) ISO / CSO Support? I got a 4 gig card that I carry my backups on so I don't have to cart UMD disks
2) When is the US release. Someone said today but I am getting mixed sources that say 2 weeks from now....
3) Will the CF make all things TV computable via TV cable?
1) Yes
2) Its out already
3) I doubt it they would of said so
1 thing to say.
I WISH MY B-DAY WAS EARLIER!
i have to wait a whole month and 19 days >:-(
i know iso booting doesnt work. but does ps1 games work?
Isos DO work...
I think that Sony has officially lost the war on homebrew.
Yea, i guess, i don't have a psp slim...so i donno much about this...except it requires the pandora's battery to install.
if i have only the psp slim, and no other psp (fat), what do i do?
nebody no if it matters tht u got the new psp slim from japan as far as running this custom firmware nd american umds
plz respond nd lemme no thx +]
sony f*cked around with the flash0 though.. ITS SO EMPTY!!!!
what exactly does this mean? what does CFW 3.60 do that OFW 3.60 can't do?
sorry im obviously a noob
@soooo: pretty much everything you'd like your PSP to do out of the box VS pretty much nothing
GG Team M33, I might buy a slim now :)
and figured it out
thanks
I'm just wondering how long it will take till sony releases a new firmware patch that fixes the pandora trick and have all psps on the shelf preinstalled with it. I really want to get psp slim but I can't get it until mid-late october. You think if I get get psp in late October it will still be preloaded with 3.6?
Where can I get a PSP slim in the US?
When I run an ISO can I output through composite cables?
Thank you sooo much M33!
No you cant pirate. Go BUY THE FRIGGIN GAME AND YOU CAN RUN IT FINE. *****ing cheap bastard.
"...When I run an ISO can I output through composite cables?..."
If you can't they should make the newest version able to. I own all my UMD's but rip them to my duo so I can have less on me at work
Pandora doesn't care what firmware you have, it can always downgrade. Theoretically, it could downgrade an unhackable firmware. So no, firmware patches will not "fix" the Pandora trick.
I would suggest getting it sooner rather than later, Sony could always think of something.
Actually the pandora battery doesn't work on the slims, yes this custom firmwares requires the battery to install it, but it cannot unbrick since the slims uses a different code. But i think Sony could fix it with a code, it depends on the PSP though. If the PSP chip thingy that has the third pin downgrade/unbrick can be flashed, sony could change the code in firmware updates. Also I guess Sony could try to do more protection on the slim, maybe like if u pop in a game with a higher firmware it might tell something that the nand cannot be rewritten on to, but since the chip is rewritable i guess a hack could come out if this happens.
actually pandora does work. it's the 1.50 ipl (that the magic memstick uses) that does not work. M33 got around this by using a combination of the 3.40 and 3.50 kernel and ipl.
THis is UNFREAKINGBELIEVABLE! I am definitely getting a new PSP Slim. Then I'm going to give my old psp to my brother. And again this is freaking cool!!!
That was quick.
cool
I'm going to buy a Slim and give my PSP to my step sister for buttsecks! OMGYAYZ
But, really, this is amazing news. I really want the slimmer version, too.. This thing is too big to carry to school and back.
If you have MSN messenger and can go step by step with me it will really help. MSN= sireal.killer@hotmail.com

thanks
I already had one for the fat just in case one day I need to do a recovery. I wonder if I have to go thru all the steps to make another memory stick again or I can clone the memory stick directly then use it for creating the slim memory stick? I assume the same battery is ok.
