Custom Firmware 3.60 M33 for PSP Slim Released
greg | September 10, 2007
Pandora’s Battery is the key & PSP Slim homebrew is now reality!
Amazingly the M33 Team has released the first custom firmware for Sony’s new PSP Slim. There is however a slight catch — call up your fat friend who you just finished teasing — because you require his/her older [fat] PSP in order to proceed with the initial installation. Tsk tsk, we knew you’d come crawling back!
All the steps are detailed in “readme.en” for English readers, and “readme.ru” for Russians.
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 homebrew 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 applications to work in these firmwares.
And to answer your next question: “is M33 gonna make a 3.60 cfw for the fat psp’s?”
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.
There you have it, one for the books! Kudos team.

HOMEBREW ON THE PSP SLIM!!!!!!!!!!
STOP SCREWING Sony..and me (I am SONY CEO)….plzzzzz…lolz..jk.
Your Comment (smaller size | larger size)
for shizzle
YAY!
woot.
holy shit. i was expecting months, these guys are good.
Is it good or is it just fast? Define your terms.
That was FAST man! what would psp slim owners do if team M33 wasent into psp hacking? Lucky ass psp slims
psp its best again well dun m33
can u use this firmware to load isos?
Thats what I want to know. I can careless about homebrew. Ya I know people will complain about piracy but I don’t care.
OMG I CALLED THIS WHEN THEY FIRST ANNOUNCED THE SLIM HELL YEA…Now i Just Need One
its shit
wOOt
can be use this on old psp
no stupid, but they are making one soon enough for the old psp
No Zody200 , Don’t even Try it, in Case it Bricks your Old PSP!!!!!
Hail Team m33 im gonna get my boy a slim psp and keep the chunky for myself, LOL
amen
hey, how much would i pay for psp slim if traded in my fat one? its like in great condition with all the standard stuff…is gamestop any good?
ohhh yea…team m33 ROCKS!!!!!!!
Just give up sony.
fuck you, retard. where the hell would the scene be if sony wasnt so fucking tight on security? where the hell would we be if homebrew was allowed from the begining?
FUCKING NOWHERE!!
at least nhot as far as we are now. so screw you and all you assholes who think the same.
and you dont “pwn” shit! fucking retard
What are you a jock working for Hitler?
What the hell are you on about? If homebrew was allowed from the beginning we wouldn’t need all this. You make no sense. Or are you just stoked about the fact that we HAVE to hack the PSP? Settle down.
Douche bag… Shut your fucking mouth, or just put my cock back in it. If Sony wasn’t afraid of the hacking we would be further along than this and there would be more devs. Think before you post retarded shit like this you cock juggling thunder cunt.
but slim cant play everything the fat psp can it doesnt have 1.50 kernal
Oh raa
M33 rocks, i might get one, does Irshell 3.62, Cintro Mod , and PSPtube work?
In feew day developers can port the old 1.5 kernel to 2.xx it’s easy and fast
i love my slim psp by by faty :D thanks for the old day’s but it’s now slims days
Not 100% of apps can run on 2.xx kernel though.
i won’t be happy unless i see a release of 3.60 firmware compatible with BOTH psp’s
and if they won’t ima break sony’s neck
fuck you too. be happy with what there is and stop bitching!!
rarely do I see so much bitching about bitching. Take a Xanax and relax.
Wow! It works just got done with it. OMG next check twenty bucks to M33 .But it works flawlessly with my silver psp. It was a god send . especial sony providing the one gig stick . ;) i only had a four . go M33
psp slim’s it’s a good product
Don’t get rid of fatty just yet. Future improvements may require Pandora. Also if you want a hackable slim better get it now before sony pushes new fw on market. GJ M33.
Just got my slim today so this is great news ……. i was checking the m33 site all morning hoping it would be released today ….. Great work team M33
will the new games work on both psp?the fat and the slim?il just curious
will the new games work on both psp?the fat and the slim?im just curious

This error is known! Try ANOTHER computer (on Win xp), or ANOTHER memory stick. (I forgot, which way help that time).
!!! This problem in computer hardware/software/settings, try another computer.
can someone please upload a video with step by step info on how to do this cuz i have try it and when i put the pandors battery and the memmory stick inside nothing happens it just stays on i never see the memmory stick light flash at all so im still stuck in 3.60
i wonder what this guy has to say now that the psp slim/lite has been hacked,please watch this youtube clips is very funny this guy hates custom firmwaes and emulators LOL
here’s the Link :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5D6Wn2hgNQ&mode=related&search=
enjoy.
the name of the videoclip on youtube is :Message to Emulators
Haha! That fag-mo got flamed so damn badly! Seriously, look at the comments on that shit!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yE-Ic5fXdI&watch_response
Ahaha! It actually got even funnier!
Watch also the video reply’s lots of variations
including this one::
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lb4WYdIg86g
Lawl, that is hilarious! +K
Wow I would buy a PSPSlim if it only had an ir port… sony really fucked up by taking it out they just lost out on selling to me… yeah it’s seriously THAT important to me….
LMFAO, one whole sale, which would prolly be like 20 dollars profit once it rolls down to sony, big fucking whoop
Hey bro, get smart… seriously… I’m not the only person who wants IR… there are hundreds if not thousands of people… now multiply that by the number of games we WON’T be buying to play on our new PSP. lmao dumbass.
sony should do open source programming psp… if psp’s dosen’t have hacks like these, all that powerful hardware inside the PSP is under-valued and PSP’s will be just a LAME console.. we can use psp like PDA… thanks to the homebrew community for making tools like calculator GPS etc..
thank you m33 just bought one today and i can confirm that this works great!!! just follow the intructions! tried out the new naruto ultimate ninja i love that game just wish they would of made it infrustructure, would of been woopin yall asses! sike later
guys I definatly said use the pandora’s batt to hack the psp-slim, I completly called this when they first made that hack
it was right after a post by Dark_Alex
..hmmm will this run backed up ISOs?
hey whats the password of the file i cant extract it!!! i alreADY HAVE MY SLIM PSP!!!!
ompak5 read where you got the download from. it wouldnt hurt to stop and read sometimes
I read that License.txt file, pretty harsh words for people who hate homebrew, i couldnt stop laughing for 3-4 minutes. I just bought a truckload of old psp’s…. mabye it was a mistake?
OH GEEZZZZ I had expected it to be at least a couple more weeks, c’mon give me a break I am still recovering from the news. Great job M33, keep it up!!!
hey guys i am really pissed off do to the fact that i cant get this to work when i execute the program after installing Pandora’s box memory stick part it says to do the mspformat.exe and the other one but the just pop up really fast and disappear in other words it does nothing i think and when do ya think an easier method will come out thanks vary mush to thos who help .
hey are you using windows vista? cuz it wont work on it. only windows xp. and what you need to do is format your mem stick in your psp first try doing it a couple of times before trying to format on the computer with mspformat.
holy crap that was fast
OMG i was waiting for this all mornig this is great i just installed and eveything is working (Go M33) you guys are awsome
so the pandora battery can also downgrade the slims psp?
Just confirming, but do you need the 1.5 updater also? Because it’s not included as part of the downloads.
next chapter (how to install themes)
Bioshock still rules…..can the ’slim’ do that? :)
That it does, and no it can’t-wait, wtf? Slim thread…
can SONY fix this with an update to the PSP Slims? like just using a FW update (3.61?)
Sorry but bioshock isnt that great. Its a great game but not that great. Its hella lot better than Gears of War and Halo. God I fucking hate halo. btw congrats m33 for getting the slim hacked. I cant wait to get the silver slim. Its not 1.5 kernel yet but damn its a step in the right direction.
what can i do with this custom firmaware…can i play emus??? isos???…..where do i download this homebrew?
why when i put the pandora battery & the m.s in the psp slim it doesnt work or nth come out? although when i press X, the psp also didnt shut down itself…why??
im having trouble with ipl block file. When I run it in Cmd Prompt, its says the following:
“PSP MS IPL Installer
Load IPL code msipl.bin
Can’t open msipl.bin”
Am I doing somehting wrong here?
omfg! LOL SONY (not again!!! dammit!!!)
Thank you M33!
Tested and confirm 100% working…Just added the pandora_slim file to my current Pandora Batt & Pandora Memory…
Then follow the instruction and there my PSP Slim with version 3.60 M33
They make a downgrade, but where is no SLIM in Russia Stores :(
v Moskve nigde nichego netu, no v princhipe moghno dostat’ chto ugodno :)
holy shit is the new psp out?
WWJD… he would buy a psp slim right now.
wait…. now.
I’m having a little trouble installing, I see instructions, but when I use Pandora it just stays at 3.60.
And I bricked my phatty…Please, throw me some help…
I’m sure the battery part works cause the screen goes blank, but have power. Tried x to install, no blinking memstick led, so problem is probably with memstick setup. I was a lil confused, but thought I did right, but apparently I screwed up big time. My Slim is still like normal, but Phatty is bricked. How to fix? Do I need another Phatty? I can’t be screwing up my friend’s, so I really need some help.
I think I figured out the memstick problem. I can’t get the msipl.bin to run. It says to run that with msipl.exe and I don’t have that. It didn’t come with. Or am I still wrong? I don’t know how to fix a brick if I can’t figure out Pandora’s Battery…Please help
M33 you got my donation !…..woot
Recovery doesn’t work!?!?!?!I could really use some un-bricking advice, then I’ll try again.
Wtf? all of a sudden-it works? weird. tnt, can you please help me install this?
Im still the best team m33 sucks in comparison to my mods…
What you working on Kypes?
1. Use mspformat to format the Memory Stick logically-I extracted everything to a new folder and ran mspformat-lil dos box shows for quick sec and disappears, nothing happens.
2. Execute “msipl” application on the PC with the msipl.bin to write the IPL to memory stick. I don’t have that app, it didn’t come in the rar.
What can I do?
If I click on msipl.bin, it just opens the window that wants me to choose a program or use net to find program to open it with. Can somebody help me out, please?
if you need help email me Lawthugg80@aol.com ill run you thru the process
thanks, man.
ok ok lol we came to the conclusion that §¥ ÙߣR ¥§ is gay. read it your self talking about puttin his doink in other guy’s mouths ok. we got that but lol it’s funny b/c the way some of the people act. no don’t buy a new psp slim no you all are stupid b/c you do this or you do that is the fact of the matter is the the people that talk smack got there psp at a garage sale or a giveaway, no matter who your hating on get a life and come back down to earth and learn something………
Not gay, I just like the feeling knowing I’m so much better than a man (like your father) that they actually suck my dick for that reason alone. It’s a nice feeling you will simply never know. =)
Will you please help me get this installed? All I need is some help getting the Pandora memstick, I’m sure I got the battery made right, just need help with Pandora’s stick.
Cmon, guys. I want to get mine going too…

I just bricked and un-bricked my phatty with the pandora’s battery. I say yes. But that’s comin’ from somebody who can’t figure out the other half…

Video for Homebrew Compatibility:
http://www.youtube.com/v/FzppiXdG1ic
Love M33 CFW for slim and Noobz Pandora is great. Wish I didn’t have to have a mem.sticks for each hack though. I had to buy 2 new mem. sticks for them, all I had was 4gig sticks.
you can always delete the files of the unbricker, put your slim hack files there, run it on a slim, after you simply delete the slim files and put your unbricker files, and move files around as much as you like.
Also, you can format your magic memory stick within the PSP and it won’t loose the IPL data.
Yeh, Nknave – you show signs of intelligence!
UHHHH DO i need To have homebrew enabled on psp Fat !?!? If yes than I am screwed
Can someone send me help on new M33 slim downgrade help. thanksz. tingsin86@hotmail.com
Can Pandora battery be created on PSP slim with fw 3.60 M33? Have somebody try that?
I have a pandora battery for the fat psp. Do I just copy the new files to the mem stick? Or do I have to flash the battery again.
Thanks
u can use back ur pandora battery & pandora memory card (unbrick Fat PSP) and add pandora_slim & pandora_slim% folder with 3.40.PBP & 3.50.PBP in pandora_slim folder.
Then
Run the fat psp with the pandora memory stick inserted, but with a normal battery.
Run the pandora_slim program from ur Fat PSP.
Then
Insert the pandora battery and the memory stick in the psp slim and click X… 9 seconds later the PSP slim will auto shut-off.
Now, u got ur PSP Slim running on 3.60 M33.
Thanks. Just got my slim.
Fingers crossed

Okay… I hacked my PSP Slim to M33 3.60 using the pandora battery. It’s been working great the last couple of days (No probs w/isos, pops or homebrew), then I wake up today, expecting to play a few games on the Slim, but when I turn the thing on… the XMB is entirely in Japanese and when I try to access anything on the XMB, I get an error message!!! Is anyone else having this problem? Is this a “Time-released” bricking system that Sony has installed on the internal memory or what? Help!!!
anyone..? ive successfully put 3.60 m33 on my psp slim. But! in the recovery menu, i selected skip SCE logo at boot. But the logo stil appears? does this option just not work or what?
So do I need a homebrew enabled fat psp!?
What is wrong with the password that the zip file asks me to type every time i try to unzip it. It seems to be invalid all the time..Anybody have a clue about this?
