M33 Custom Firmware 3.52 Update #4 (3.52 M33-4)
greg | August 20, 2007
Just a quick one…
- Fixed the bug that caused CRC error when writing to flash usb in the XMB. Now writing is OK.
- Added the new speeds to vshmenu and core, because we forgot in recovery.
AS we didn’t want to release a new update without something new, we worked in making 3.10/3.11 to work with popsloader, and that’s it, the new popsloader plugins supports them. Instruction for 3.10 and 3.11 are same as 3.30: you need pops.prx, popsman.prx and pafmini.prx with the correct names in popsloader directory. And remember that savedata of 3.10-3.30 are incompatible
with those of 3.40+. We’ll research if a solution for this is possible.
The update is safe, I can assure you this. Details concerning the recent bricks and whatnot, have a glance over the “README_EN.TXT” file. It’s rather humorous. Kudos Team, stick it to ‘em!
Thanks gamermanpsp

WOOT GREAT JOB
FIRST POST
To paraphrase that chick from Jerry McGuire…”You had me at yankee paranoids” LOL
Comedians and CFW greats!
This is great thanks M33:)
Can I update from 3.52-2 or I need the have the 3.52-3?
Thank you!
No you can update to it!! Woot to Team M33
Thx very much i just uploaded it and it works great and can some1 explain to me what is POPS LOADER??
thx alot
im pretty sure its used for psx games, if it isnt please tell me.
popsloader - is kernel of your PSX emulator.
In different _official’s_ fw - _different_ versions of popsloader.
Plugin, that comes with 3.52-2-3-4 updates, can select the kernel (popsloader version) of PSX emulator, and you can select the optimal version for you.
well thanks for the bug fix
I TOLD YOU THERE WERE BUGS.
still not going for it m33 suck and ps3badnews
Your loss :D
Dumbass
And you think OE didn’t have bugs. tsk, tsk…
I think what they are doing is great… and I support them in their efforts to stop those who edit programs for their own benefit and give no credit to the ones that made the software… its about time someone took a stand
lmao @ the license! Thanks for the update m33 :)
keep em coming!!
thanks again :)
do not trust on the update from m33 and ps3badnews and to all psp owner said it work show us a video all talk
it works great! and how long has the vsh menu been working? i only just noticed it. so its all gd!
They still got the license wrong… Hold Ctrl and tap F, then type “webiste”. That’s right… WEBISTE.
Check out the readme ! lol There’s an NY address for the ps3news admin. :) Is this guy’s life in danger or what ? LMAO
Works sweet! great job.
Question?
How do you mount your video iso?
Mine is in the correct directory \ISO\VIDEO\Movie.iso
But iI do not see it any where? UMD is inserted and UMD Normal Mode.
Home key shows the ISO VIDEO MOUNT but can’t change it from none?
How do I get this mounted. Should it show up in the game menu with the other iso’s?
Another sweet update!-+———————-
press “home” button to access vhs-menu, and select your iso.
again perfect update :)
hey, thanks team m33 for this release! thanks psp-hacks too
how do you use the popsloader plugins i have a game and i dont know what to do when it asks me witch one i wanna use
now if they can do something with the not enough mem. when on line.
eg. paging file on mem. stick
I’m sure they will. Just give them time. THEY GOT FREAKING UMD VID ISO WORKING! So don’t worry, they’ll fix sony’s poor system.
I did the last update. How’s this one going for everyone else. Reading some of the above comments and now am hesitant again about updating. is this one safe or not?
Of Course its Safe, as long as you didn’t get it from the PS3News Site then it will Update Perfectly as it has for me……….Don’t Worry it will Update Ok……..:o)
tryed to up date but got an error saying cant open 1.50pbp any ideas?
can any1 explain to me how to get this to work like devhok because i want to keep my 1.50 version but not sure how to flash back to it when i need to. would appreciate your help
Hey mate, listen, if you really like the benefits of 1.50 you have nothing to lose from upgrading to 3.52m33…….why? because its like having 3.52 and 1.50 running at the same time. E.G: if say you wanted to run a game emu that required 1.50, all you need to do is place the emu and roms in the GAME1.50 folder. Plus you have ISO loader which means you no longer need fastloader to load ISO’s. But if you really want to flash back and forth try using psp upgrader/downgrader by bob joe it will make very easy work of it.
dled..tested.. works gr8
Crap! I can’t turn off my psp. HELP!
Lol i thought peoples problems were usually that they cant turn the psp on .. but you cant turn it off ? wtf :P
i had a problem turning my psp off after entering the m33 VSH menu & changing the clock XMB speed but its not happening anymore ?
Never mind. Just a quick bug. Had to use recovery boot homebrew which doesn’t work with this new recovery menu then turned it off. Man, that was scarry.
update #4 next week update #6 these guys have more “updates” then sony. get it right m33
Oh My God! Imperfect people can’t write perfect code. News at 11!
Cant you read, there were bug fixes yes, but did you notice that NEW features were added? As per your name, I think your “Development” aid has rotted your brain.
man still bugy.. waiting on 5 LOL WAIT… A MINUTE ISENT THE PSP GETING A NEW FIRMWARE IN SEPTEMBER? OK I’LL WAIT TILL THEN. LOL
you are all losers GET A JOB ASSHOLES!!!
Where can you get the “pops.prx, popsman.prx and pafmini.prx with the correct names in popsloader directory” if it isnt already there, and can you use popsloader 3.4 to correctly run Chrono Cross?
THATS WHAT I NEED.. WHERE TO FIND PRX FILE
As I See It All Bad Comments, A Few Good Ones,
As A Coder U Got Beta, And Updates Like Xp, Sp1,Sp2 Duh AnyThing Is Not Perfect.
Good Job Team M33
To upgrade it doesn’t matter what version of 3.52 m33 you are at? Correct?
Woooooooo yeah!!:D Good one M33 Keep it up!!!
Great nfo glad to see the admin of ps3news details being spread. Why is anyone getting updates from there anyways! You deserve your brick!
worked great thanks keep up the good work
hi all i need some help, i have a psp V 3.52 an am tryin to get to V 1.50 but i dont no how to get here can some1 help me plz thank you
You cant use a software downgrade. you need to get a modchip.
I’ve been getting some lock-ups on these M33 FWs. I don’t know why, but, the only way I can access my files through USB, is through the recovery menu. It locks up trying to do it through the XMB, same goes for trying to connect to the internet, and a couple of other things. Maybe if I get a fresh copy of 1.5 and then put M33 back on here? It’s really annoying.
Have you reset to default settings? Are you using unstable custom icons/font… etc.
Yep, every thing is on default, switched back to default XMB icons/fonts, still does it. I don’t know why. How would one go about re-flashing 1.5, it’s been a LONG time since I’ve done it.
Downgrader from official Sony 3.52 firmware is extremely difficult to find and it is not available here due to copy rights. Use Google… you will succeed sooner or later. In the meantime read more about your PSP on this site.
LOL
Wait for the official 3.60. The Noobz will eventually crack it and all the morons that updated to 3.51 (AND 3.52) can update some more to 3.60 AND THEN downgrade !
lol @ 3.52 downgrader!
OK Good Work M33, although there a lot of updates and stuff :D IMO I think you guys should get all the bugs fixed in one go instead of a update every week. So if you get it all fixed up in my FW and then updates for major bugs, it will be much better instead of bits and bits of the update. Anyway good work there, cheers. BTW anyway to turn of the M33 VSH MENU when you press HOME
Would you rather they release a *final* version, let’s say, um, 3.52-X and never release the update just because it’s not “final” ?
Let them do their work. After all, it’s up to YOU if YOU and only YOU choose to update or not.
updates are released to add more functionality. let em roll !!
Here, here!!
I don’ know how to make this update. I have 3.52 M33 … and want to do this #4 update. Is there any program or something like this ??
o.k is there a downgrader for V 3.52 or do i of to wait till V 3.60 is out to downgrade my psp ? thank you
u have 2 wait 4 downgrader v3.52 which no where 2 find 4 the time being & be patience. Now only available downgrader v3.50 & below, sorry dude………………………
the downgrader from ALL officials Sony PSP firmwares is out - look for “Pandora’s Battery”…
update works fine for me
LOL Update Happy M33 LMAO but still Good work !!!
Can somenone tell me where I can find the decryted prx’s ready to download for the popsloader. Thks.
Can I upgrade from cf 3.03 oe-b straight to m33 cf 3.52 update 4 thanx
i updated mines from an oe firmware so it should work……clean upgrade by the way.
Have fun!
Jesus fuckin’ H. Christ lawlz. Another goddamn update =/
M33, make PSX disc swap work in popsloader with your next shitty, I mean buggy update of your CFW ;D
Hold on, let’s make a bet to see if these guys will ever release a STABLE release for us.
Can I just say to all the moaning twats **** off. If you don’t like the custom firmwares then go back to the Sony ones. M33 give you the ability to use ISO, homebrew etc and all you can do is bitch!
So does Dark_AleX’s CFW and I’m still using the 3.40 OE which is STABLE and still runs the latest games ;D
I guess your one of those guys tha thinks M33 are liek wow so l33t and shit. But then explain why they need to bring out so many patches? I’m guessing those people that brinked their PSP from having to upgrade to shitty M33 are fuming right now.
It’s like Your-Mom fansub group if you ever watch anime and download their torrents. Let me explain, they are NOT the best group out there if they release stuff faster than anyone else. I prefer a fansub group that takes time with their releases rather than a speedsub group. Same thing applies here.
Oh and another thing, I do believe this is opened fro comments so that M33 and the likes can get feedbacks from comments and so, we, the “guinea pig” for M33’s dodgy releases are the testers for there shit and so therefore, we have every right to moan and bitch ;D
3.52m33 has less bugs for me than 3.40OE…so it is fine by me, and with added functionality from the updates, im with all the people that think m33 is good, EVERYTHING ive needed and tried works great…
peace
let’s wait and see how you will play God of War on 3.40 ;)
The M33 crew needs to grow the fuck up. I like the stuff they have released but really. Making the users pay for someone elses mistake is pathetic.
I resent them more than the ps3news people. Grow up people. It is your fucking fault you put in the malicious code in which bricks psp. You knew that this would happen and peoples psp’s would brick. This makes you jerkoffs. Frickin hell, my donation is going elsewhere now. If they are going to pull crap like this i would rather they start hacking the gizmondo rather than putting in code they know will (directally or indirectally) cause peoples psp’s to brick.
All I can say is I like the customfirmwares that aren’t so needy. I can already use ISO, CSO, and all the homebrew I want. I have 3.40*LE and the only problem I have is not enough memory when on the net. I appreciate what they are doing, but it’s already been done better so why waste your time on it? If it was REALLY 3.52 that would be cool, but it’s not. I think it’s running 3.10 and emulating 3.52-and that’s just gay. Seriously, why downgrade custom firmware? Why not have 3.40 emulate 3.52? Or just make a new customfirmware 3.52? I just don’t understand how we went from “everything you can do and then some”, to “you have to get a different version, some bootloader, change kernel, change folder name, edit this with notepad, etc” I like seeing new things, but I have yet to find out why this isn’t a waste of development skills. I’m not trying to piss anyone off, just pointing out that there’s better things you could be working on…
>I think it’s running 3.10 and emulating 3.52-and that’s just gay
And on what do you base this bit of wtf?
forums on this site, I don’t remember exactly which one. Probably another M33 comment page. And if it’s not true, then what exactly is the firmware emulation? because from what I’ve read it’s not really 3.52.
the firmware emulation stuff is for POPS only, some of the different firmwares POPS played certain(very limited but a few) psx games better than the newer releases, if you want to play some of those games, you need the older pops…
peace
That’s it? Well then the only other argument is that 3.40*LE has only one GAME folder for all your homebrew, versus GAME and GAME150 and GAME340 and GAME352. So this M33 isn’t bad at all…
white power
No such thing.

hi can someone help me plz my fw verson is 2.82 how do i downgrade it to 1.5?
plz help me im unsure thnx in advance
you would have to upgrade to 3.03 and use the 3.03 downgrader wich requires an unpatched version of GTA LCS wich has the 2.00 update.
Also, if you can’t find the unpatched version of GTA if you want, you can upgrade to 3.50 and use it’s downgrader, but the catch is……..lumines is required.
so you have two options of downgrading i suggest waiting till you can get a hold of just one of these games before just upgrading to a downgradable firmware
If people choose to download installers/updates from other websites then they are very foolish. If these files are altered by idiots that don’t know what they are doing and cause the update/installer to fail resulting in a bad flash (brick) then these people are to blame not M33.
Keep up the good work M33.
And a thanks to PSP-Hacks for keeping the downloads clear of PSP brickers.
Here’s a link to Popsloader all tested and working.
http://dl2.megauploads.org/download.php?id=36A06AE2
All you need to do is copy to your memstick and enable the POPSLoader in the Recovery menu. IV also included v3.51 and 3.52 so it should be future proof
Enjoy… ;-)
works gr8 thanks DavyBoy :-)
lol… Just for the fun of it.. I went to the ps2news site (1st time ever) just to see if the had anything to say about M33… it gave me a laugh… they rip people off and the moment someone takes a stand they have a hissy fit…
