yeah and 3.50 then 3.60 and 3.80 then 4.00 i will never stop. hope DA will keep hope alive….

I wonder how much to hire a hitman to kill DA… :D

we want Sony to finally put an end to all this modding, i’d rather have a console which is succesful for a long time and has a lot of game releases than some bandit modded piece of shit with no games for it. Period.

LOL with his keen smartness, i wouldnt ask about cost i would ask about difficulty of the job, DA deffinatly is not going to just sit there and be taken out…in any manner of speaking (whether literally or by sony), DA man you have the kind of brain I can only be envious of having, maybe one day youll let me pick it for a while and let me make myself smarter. Anyway dude keep it up, maybe i can ask you the make the next version devhook style where the games are listed as umd’s and not in the game tab.

NO! Dark_AleX can’t loose!!! I just hope that 3.4 will be REALLY awesome. I’m still waiting for the 3.10 downgrade.

I Can Read Korean And It Says It Will Be Released April 19 2007.

This is at the bottom! It sounds like they heard of the psps being bricked from trying to go back to Sony’s 3.30 after you downgrde.

what i dont understand is why hasn’t sony added more customization like icons to the regular firmware if sony were to do that the psp would be more popular. the psp has a lot of potential in the customization area

even if we stayed on 3.02OE, Dark Alex’s success in transforming the PSP from a bad portable console to something you can have fun with (at last) is priceless. justice has been served a long time ago (in my opinion)- now it’s about honour….. (will not $ony ever learn???)

Shame they don’t put as much effort into Gran Turismo Mobile!

so whats does this firmware provide???????

Is there a reason that so many people put a dollar sign instead of a simple “S”?

I hate seeing posts about Sony/MS when users spell it M$ and $ony. It just looks stupid.

I looked at the site, it did say 3.40 at the top. But when I downloaded and opened it in PBP Unpacker, it said “PSP Update ver. 3.30″. What’s up with that?

^^^^Never mind, I feel stupid now.

O Why Cant S.O.N.Y Accept Defeat
LOL

Good Work DA On The New FW Release

make another devhook will you with this new firmware update and with the 3.30. or i have a better idea make and ultimate devhook that has all the firmwares that devhook can support so we dont have to use the older ones to use the gta exploit in 2.00 and the 3.30 that would be a great idea

How come sony keeps makeing new firmware when thay know people like DA will just hack it and mod it and other stuff its really just pointless for sony to keep making newer Firmwares

No we need sony to keep updating you silly cunts. Sony always add a little exrtra to there firmware to tempt pple into moving amay from the homebrew scene hence you had the ps1 emulator, that did indeed work for many ppl, until that was cracked. So with every firmware update we have custom firmware update, gerit.

So this is good news PRICKS!

well thaanks to 3.30 oe-a theres a new fw to be hacked, hope its something worth hacking instead of a security update

lol $ony is probably sayin ” god damnit they hacked the newest firmware again!” i really hope DA can make custome firmwares for all firms. i have 3.03 oe-c on my ceremic white psp that i got from play-asia. it rocks! :D oh and DA could you please make the 3.40 oe fully customizable that would be great thanx:)

Wade,
damn i wish i had a ceramic white psp :( everyone has a black psp so i want something that i can walk around the mall and evrone is like “ooo a white psp

I think that Sony should just give up. They just keep updating and gods like Dark Alex just keep crackin it. They should just know when they are beat. Haha keep up the good work DA

New Firmware Version Sony_Sucker…lol
Hey Guyz Every Thing Iz Ok..Never Mind What Sony Do Theres Heros Here…. :D

Theyre only releasing this because DA made 3.30 OE, I think that they just store the next update until the previous one is cracked, and then they release it.

can anyone tell me when is the 3.30 downgrader coming out i m dying to downgrade my psp! Dark Alex plz make 3.30 downgrader plzzzzzzzzzz! ty! :D

without sonys updates there would be no good cf, they set the bar and we raise it

SPEED

i’m in the USA and i just ran Network Update at 11:00pm central (midnight Eastern) and it showed up as 3.40, it has already been released in the USA….
————————————————————-
On another note, I don’t understand why people come in here hating on Dark Alex….Anyone that comes on this site, knows just from the URL that it is a hacking site…..if you hate hacking consoles, or software, why put ur browser to this page? they have filters on web browsers to block such things…Zone Alarm does a great job on filtering sites…..

There’s always going to be an update as long as the psp stay’s alive. I think it is ingenious ..lol ..and i love it.. I think Sony does too. Dark_Alex is the and other people that put there time into this, I just want to Salute you for your knowledge and time put into it. Thnx

Um i don’t think the score is quit right, its more like dark alex 16 to sony like a half a point maybe then after they are decrypted and then OE they will be at like negative one

Update features (taken from nz website):

NOTE: To take advantage of these new features please update both your PSP and PS3 if you own both machines.

PS3 ver.1.70 & PSP ver.3.40

• You can now use the vibration function of accessories that are for use with PlayStation®2 format software. (PS3 1.70 only)

i think DA should back off for a while, give sony the impression hes fucked off to Hawaii to build furniture, custom chairs and tables, that sort of thing. then when sony start including some usefull shit he can return in a triumphant blaze of glory…he deservs some serious r & r :)

Guys don’t upgrade to the latest firmware from Sony from a custom firmware – I now have a bricked psp. Sigh

shit son, thats not good. start looking on ebay for a nhew one or get U.P

I’m not sure, but just guessing .. If for some reason you should get tired of custom psp’s, and want an offical sony updat .. its probably a good idea to downgrade to v1.50 first ..i think sony has made the custom versions and the new updates brick psp’s…. i do not know if thats true.. but it wouldn’t supprise me.

in the japanese update it says lisence management have been deleted. hmm

http://www.psp-hacks.com We apologize for our earlier comment. We realize that we have lost and will now implement full homebrew capabilities in firmware 3.40, thank you for showing us who is boss.

comon sony ucan give up creating firmwares u hab money we hab dark alex

i am a fucked up little kid =] just letting u guys know :D

Only a small portion of people actually use CF and the unit is more attractive due to homebrew. Sony doesn’t lose money. They’re not cornering the market on the psp. Long live DA, Booster, and Developers that make the psp desirable.

does this work with the custom icons? i might just update from 3.03 oe-c 2 3.30 oe-a.

can i still use all the custom waves,fonts gameboots etc with 3.30?

I wonder what Sony added in this one, probably just more security patches to stop the CF making. BTW, whoever is making fun of Dark Alex is either stupid or plainly an asshole, if not both, because they shouldn’t be on this site then…

Damn man, DA is very helpful and smart. How easy or how hard is it to make a custom firmware? I don’t know, but if he can make a custom firmware easily then he should be able to make a 3.30 downgrader. Don’t get the wrong idea, i’m still on 3.03oe-c, lol. But my friend just bought a new psp to find out how lucky he was to get a 3.30, lol. Now he’s on my dick for a downgrader to come out and downgrade it for him. And guys, nintendo ds has homebrew also, and they never release security patches, so why is sony like that. Don’t get it.

thats so motherfucking quick sony dont want us to play spiderman3 and God of War for free when they come out man thats some shit!

Benders Renders

I just cant keep up with all these firmware updates, I’m still lovin 3.03oe-c, will upgrade when its worth it, GPS functionality would be neat.

NEED A DOWNGRADER!!! Please. Please. Please.
Not for me though. I like knowing there is downgrading available. Please, please make one Dark_Alex.

$ony sucks for brickin’ psp’s that update to official firmware from CF’s! But n00bs suck for updating in the first place!!! Assholes never update to $ony!

The new 3.40 version has added more compatability with PS1 games. Also, the Certificate Utility button as been erased. It can still be accessed by pressing triangle on a selected.

Just something that some people might wanna know

you can downgrade. i downgraded 3.10oe-a so it must be possible with 3.30 with the required 1. files. you shud be able to run it in recovery mode with the run file at ms0:/psp/game150/….

as for the person that called you a retard on your same post above,their a retard!

who actually upgraded???

How can they come up with more updates every time, I mean wont the flash memory eventually get full from the BS security & other files? Oh and thankz DA.

kidnotorius, nah i was just wondering if the flash space will be expected to run out anytime soon

heyy man we just came out with like 2 new firmwares wheres the downgrader for 3.10?????????

What I wanna know is when they are gonna come out with the Keyboard unit and if AV(Video, Right – Left Sound) plugin is in the future. For input not output or both. Or if this is even possible for a hack.

what was the cirtificate utility for anyways???

You guys are bunch of dumb fucks, Sony is updating PSP cause of PS1 games and PS3 compatibility, god bless them for that.

man sony just don’t give it a rest! they enjoy getting fu#ked in the @ss!

shit only shit

If it wasn’t for sony, would we have a psp? i’m still thinking to look at sony before cussing at them. Dark_Alex would not have made a psp so we could all get one. So guys, just stop cursin at sony and Dark_Alex(people that cant get homebrew, lol). We should just appreciate things from both.

I agree with you mate. Thanks for showing your appreciation.

What happens when DA gets bored of doing this? whos going to take over? people do move on to other things. just a question av always thought about.

C267, i think that too lol especially when he said he was quitting the scene

you guys see what happens with custom firmware? they’ve taken away our certificate utility now how can i utilize the certificates?! lol

We are sorry for your inconvenience and we r now relizing that we are complete fucktards and will stop making new Firmwares

Woot! FW 3.40OE-A is out! You can find it at http://www.dark-alex.org. Don’t forget to reward the Master at the Paypal section!!!

I just upgraded to 3.40 OE-A flawlessly! No major changes at first sight, but it is the thought that counts right? RESPECT all the way guys!

sony is gay… dark-alex is god

Hey DAX i keep having problems with even getting 3.30oe-a to work… ill start the oeupdate and it will take forever and then crash out with some error
i just redownloaded both 1.50 and 3.0 to see if that will help at all if it doesnt work i may just give 3.4 a try dunno if it will be any more successfull lookin for help if ya can offer it

I just wanted to add that I think it’s funny as hell, that 80% of you sound like you would suck this DA guy off if you got the chance. HE’S JUST A HACKER, that probibly lives in his mom’s basement.

what is the different between 3.30 and 3.40???
