PSP Firmware 3.50 Available Now

Posted by greg

It’s out! Fetch it via Network Update right now (or below from PSP Hacks) — PSP firmware 3.50!

If you’re a PS3 Hacks reader you may recall the announcement of 3.50 which is said to include support for “Remote Play” over the Internet. “Remote Play” is a specific piece of functionality that allows remote control over the PS3’s XMB interface by way of your PSP hand held. Prior to this update users were only able to access the PS3 XMB over their local network.

Stay tuned for more details.

The official 3.50 changes:

Network

  • You can now connect a PSP® system to a PS3™ system via the Internet using [Remote Play].
  • [Communication Settings] has been added as an option to the [Remote Play] menu.
  • [RSS Channel Guide] has been added as a feature under [RSS Channel].

Remember: upgrading will render your PSP incompatible with any homebrew whatsoever. UPGRADE AT OWN DISCRETION!

    Finnaly. Hopefully within 24 hours it will be cracked and there will be an OE version lol.
    Because 3.4 SUCKKKKKS and 3.30oea is not cutting it too much anymore.
    how soon will it be cracked you think?

    Comment by drmadcow
    2007-05-31 19:22:23

    3.30oe ain’t cutting it anymore? it plays all the games for free and got all the update features. I dunno what more you could really ask for.. 3.4 does suck i doubt it will be worth even cracking to make a OE for it

    Comment by Plushchris
    2007-05-31 01:23:18

    Yeah, and it’ll still do them in a years time when it will be half the price.

    I will not be buying a PS3 until it is at least competes on price with the other consoles out there, its good but not THAT good.

    Comment by drmadcow
    2007-05-31 19:24:54

    yeah I’d have a ps3 but dang $600 I’d just buy a new computer. the PS3 ain’t bad but if you ask me I’d probally rather have a PS2 that I could play pirated games with instead.

     
    Comment by coldtoiletseat
    2007-05-31 20:35:06

    lol, the ps3 is a bargain. if you were to upgrade the 360 to have the same features as a ps3, it would cost right over $1000. if you dont believe me pm me. i have done the research.

    Comment by Virus
    2007-06-06 13:34:53

    WTF? What research did you do you stupid ass fanboy? I have PS3 and 360 and even with the HD-DVD attachment its still less than the PS3. Stupid trolls.

    For such a powerful machine how come the PS3 cant play games in 1080i and games have to be coded for a specific resolution where as my 360 plays them just fine.

    it looks like all but official eboots have been blocked from even showing up on the XMB, so thus, DO NOT UPDATE, unless you have a extra PSP like I do!

    God, things are so slow now a days, I can hardly give a shit for the updates anymore, Sony adds one freaken thing for one stupid update, and its always for the freaken ps3 now…Just gonna get hacked, and that OE version is gonna suck to because there is nothing good to offer from the official update.
    So is this as far as the PSP can really go?

    Comment by damn....
    2007-05-31 19:28:57

    you know…i actually kinda agree with you. things have been pretty slow, and when Sony DOES come out with an update, its usually aimed toward the PS3. Sony has to also think about those people who cant really afford to dish out $600 for a PS3……..like me! :D

     
     
    Comment by arcsy
    2007-05-31 02:44:12

    Then stop bashing the PSP and try to play a different handheld system.

    But honestly, when I see the new features of 3.50 I don’t think it’s anything worth of making a OE version of it. It’s just not that worth in DA’s time IMO…

    Comment by Bailey
    2007-05-31 18:59:40

    What about 3.5 req’d umds? I know, pprolly will be another 2 firmware releases before any game requires it, but still. Sony is adding more functionality to the psp, and yes extra security, but DA handles that. A lot of whingey whiners around this place.

    Comment by coldtoiletseat
    2007-05-31 20:40:15

    so why isnt it right to make it an update? just because its for ps3 connectivity? dont alienate your ps3 brethren.

    2007-05-31 03:57:35

    I have a Ps3 but i cant even use remote play because I have 3.4 oe and every time i try to register device it says that there arent any psp systems connected!!!! But when I look on the xmb it reads it as just some random usb device. This kinda makes me wanna get an official sony upgrade to see if that works……….Anybody have this problem besides me????

    Comment by robtheslob
    2007-05-31 12:15:12

    try to run keycleaner 1.1 on your psp to fix the idstorage keys (they can get messed up during the downgrade process)… i had the same problem when pairing my psp and that solved it for me.

    Comment by Ty
    2007-05-31 14:56:59

    Appreciate that. Ima try it right now i’ll let you know if it works!!!

    Comment by MaximusDM
    2007-05-31 15:52:16

    KeyCleaner v1.1 didn’t solve this problem for me. I dump the keys several times and ran the program to fix them several times. My PS3 still does not detect the PSP. It only shows it as a USB device.

    Comment by Ty
    2007-05-31 18:04:51

    Yeah maximus same here dumped the keys ran the program….Still no psp detected. Its starting to look like i’ll need another psp with official sony firmware for remote play…….sucks

    what you need is a GOOD 043.bin key (find a friend with a working PSP, or be creative.), and ‘usbhostfs-fix’ Fixed it for me, never had any luck with keycleaner or anything like that myself.

    I’m with Dd409… My friend has a PS3 and brings it over when he comes here, but Remote play is pointless, if you wanted to acces your PS3 from anywhere, just upload the media to a memory stick, PS3 formats are exactly the same as PSP media formats.

    Comment by coldtoiletseat
    2007-05-31 20:44:05

    “just upload the media to a memory stick”

    yea, the ps3 hard drive is 60gigs, i dont think they have media sticks that large. i would want to be able to access all of my ps3 home meda not just 5 pictures or songs. what about 1.5gig large movies? that would either 1) not fit on most memory sticks or 2) take a really long time to transfer.

    Unless games come out requiring 3.50 i dont really care if DA makes a new OE version or not to be honest, I dont have a PS3 and simply will not buy one at the price tag its at… pretty useless update if you ask me… unless you own a PS3

    good news
    99.9% of the 3.50 is decrypted with the 3.30 decrypted
    ONLY the REBOOT.BIN is not extracted/decrypted (psp turn off when in get to that point)

    Comment by TheGlow
    2007-05-31 11:34:43

    You sure it decrypts? Mine said decrypted 2 files, copied a bunch, and then froze on reboot.
    I only wanted a decrypted pops.prx and it sure isnt decrypted

    Comment by sendblink
    2007-05-31 12:04:28

    They should just make an Update for the 3.40 FW … just adding the RemotePlay option… because making a Custom FW of 3.50 its still pointless for just only that… plus there arent any UMD’s still that need that FW yet.

    As for new games…

    I only want the Game *Silent Hill: Origins
    http://psp.ign.com/articles/782/782865p1.html

    I doubt it aint even 3.40FW that game :P

    Comment by drmadcow

    Honestly, to those people who say Dark_Alex should not make an OE of 3.50, Theres alot of PS3 owners. Just because you dont benefit, doesnt mean you should suggest that others who do, miss out on what it has to offer at the cost of our homebrewability. Thats pretty unfair of you.
