1.50 Addon for 3.71 M33 (PSP Fat Only)
greg | September 30, 2007
Dark_AleX never breaking a promise — yesterday the Universal Unbricker, and now the long awaited 1.50 kernel patch for custom firmware 3.71 M33… Well not that long, its only been out a week now.
Instructions:
- Install 3.71 M33 (if you haven’t already)
- Copy the directory UPDATE to /PSP/GAME/UPDATE.
- Get sony 1.50 update and copy it to the root with name “150.PBP”
- Run the program and done.
Notes:
- This program is only for PSP fat. The program will reject PSP slim, due to the 1.50 kernel not working on it.
- Because of lack of space, the installer will remove Location Free Player, and the korean font

Thank you DA.
will irshell 3.6 work now
Thank you so much. This is your last release, right? Good luck and take care.
yea i keep getting an error everythime i run this and i folowed the instructions to the T. can anyone help me out here?
thanks man, you rule DA hope you will continue making firmwares (eventho you said you arent…)
well firstly…well done Dark_AleX, you are fantastic, and you will go down in history forever…Secondly a question about the release…will my 8GB memory stick still work properly with this add-on?
Goodbye DA…you will be missed
yes the memory stick will work properly
the CFW will not change anything in ur MEMO
I know it says it’s for Phatty’s, but if I use the Eloader for 2.71m33, I could run this. Would it screw up my Slim? I’m kinda thinking it would, but I want to know for sure…
Nah.. even if you can run it, the program will still reject. It’s DA’s code which detects whether its the phat or the slim. So, no matter what, you can’t install it in Slim even though you can “run” it. Hope that helps.
YOU CANT PUT THE FUCKIN 1.50 KERNEL ON A GOD DAMN SLIM!!!! HOLY FUCK!!!…THE HARDWARE IS NOT COMPATIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know, but maybe emulate 1.50 like devhook only reverse. I know sooner or later something will come out that can help. And second, you don’t have to be such a dick. I’m always shouting out ideas and all you do is look for people to be a dick to. Grow up.
What haxxor said, only calmer.
Thanks deathack…
Even though this will be the last release from DA, I’m hoping that team M33 still doing the CFW. Thank you, Honto ni Arigatou.
p/s btw, doesn’t this mean that we can downgrade 3.71 m33 to 1.5 using Recovery?
Thanks so much DAX! I really hope you arent quitting for real, but good luck with whatever you are doing now! Come back to us soon! You cant stay away, I just know it!!
Thanx
What about people still running 3.03 AE-C firmware…. how would we go about getting into this very latest Dark_Alex release? Thanks for help.
upgrade to 3.71 m33 4, why are you still in 3.03 oe-c you cant even play new games on it anymore
3.03 AE-C, the ‘first’ firmware created by Dax. And almost all of us now are using or installing the last DAX firmware. Pretty ironic. In any case, you can update by first upgrading to 3.52 and then use the patch to get to 3.52 (ver4)…then upgrade again to 3.71….or just make Pandora ver2, which will do all these steps in one gigantic sweep. Nothing to fear with the new 1.5 enabler. Get your psp out of the Custom Firmware Stone age….
Tom, where do I get all these upgrades you talk about or this Pandora v2 that does it all for me?
I’ve been running this 3.03 for awhile and out of the scene…obviously… please give me a link or something… thanks bro!
i believe that dax just said he was gonna take a break for a while and that he would come back, well errr thats what m33 said. remeber when he went under the name m33 he said that 3.71 m33 was supposed to be released after he got back. so basically stop saying goodbye as if it is forever. I mean you dont tell your parents goodbye as if they were gonna die when they go on vacation.
m33 is a seperate group residing in russia and not dark alex.
wrong…. M33 is a pseudonimous of DAX because of the Sony’s persecution
wrong, he’s a member of the russian group of hackers known as m33.
you guys are all retartedd
i mean retarted
U guys r idiots M33 is DA!!!!!!!!!FTW!!!!
oooops!!
nope wrong he in the m33 member :D
Sweet
yyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssss woooooooooooooo
hi,
what does this allow me to do, that i cannot do now?…customize XMB?
He really isn’t M33, he is just part of the team but he is the one coding the CFW’s while the others help out
thnks dark-alex,you are the gr8es ever, i realy apresiate this custom firmware…we are from indonesian psp comunity say realy2 thanks…we love you
Hmm, Is there any programs that still use 1.50 kernel? By now you think that it would have been changed to use the 3.xx one.
the problem is i downloaded the update file here, done all like the readme says and it says that “Incorrect or Inexistence 150.PBP at root.”
copy to mem this way.
ms0:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE/EBOOT.PBP
ms0:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE/libpsardumper.prx
ms0:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE/pspdecrypt.prx
ms0:/150.PBP
im having problems installing i get that error mesage to as well
what do i do ?
dude…it works…yay
Is 3.71 m33 compatible with custom themes?
Still has missed items.
1. Skip sony logo on boot still doesn’t work.
2. Previous CFW Numbers still show when switching from 1.50 to 3.71 in Recovery/advanced
All I noticed so far.
After applying the cookie theme. the sony logo stopped working. Maing the skip sony logo onboot works after all. Alittle strange.
no it uses ptf
Thanks, Dear DA.
I very like your hacks and want to jion your development. I’m Chinese pepole.
You are my God!
Im getting a error every time i try and update.
location free files are nowhere to be found, and its bottles out at a .prx called pspnet_inet.prx. anyone able to help me?
if u read it it says they took out location free player to free up space
I know that, when i ran it, it couldn’t find them to delete them. I’ve done it now though, downgraded then re-upped, straight after the update to 3.71 M33, added the files from the 1.50 kernal update rar and kept the 371.PBP file in there, seemed to work then =S, Oh well, at least its worked now.
so….any major bugs? (screen freez or smth like that) specialy recovery menu and XMB ??
i updated but when i try to use homebrew which uses 1.50 kernel my psp turns black and turns off
try this
go to recovery menu —> configuration and change the game folder homebrew
with the space issue if they could find a way to somehow link flash0 to maybe flash2/3 since theres nothing in them at the moment then we would have loads of space for cool new stuff but i expect thats extremely hard to do so thats why they aint done it yet but just an idea
messed up my recovery menu settings. now works…
Firstly, major props to DA. If the psp could rotate the earth, DA would have us doing 360’s by now!! The gaming community in South Africa salute you and thank you for that swift kick in sony’s nuts ;-)
I do, however, have a problem running my homebrew after installing 1.50 kernel…psp screen turns black and turns off. Ideas anyone??
edit on that last post…just had to fiddle with the recovery menu. Everythings perfect now.
Just upated to 3.71M33 then applied the 1.50 Kernel patch, working 100%
Tested Jackass - The Game ISO
DGEN
Metal Slug PSX
Thanks Dark_Alex M33
do custom themes work on this?
thx dax for all your time and efforts. it works like a charm ^^
I have a single and simple question.
Do 3.51-3.52 M33 enabled-themes work on 3.71 M33?
OR do I need the RCO editor AGAIN????
Is anyone else having a problem with usb host under this new CFW. I used to be able to view all my ISO’s by pressing the SELECT key, now SELECT brings up M33 VSH MENU! Anyone?
im still waitng… thay need to come out with all the patchs thay made in one… hopefully will see that soon… 3.71 m33 update 2 with everything on it.. i’ll wait.. if not then i’ll grab all the stuff
thanks so much m8 your are the god of psp :) dont ever quit
much respect Dark Alex
I’m having trouble with the pspnet_inet.prx file while applying the 1.50 kernal update, it keeps saying Error and restarting my psp. Anyone know how to sort this problem out?
same here. when i patch it. everythings ok, only when i come to pspnet_inet.prx. and show error, then it restart psp. does that mean patch fail? i still cant downgrade to 1.5. HELP PLEAAAASE!!!!

GOOD RIDDENCE WHO NEEDS THIS DODGY CUSTOM FIRMWARE IT SUCKS JUST USE OFFICAL SONY FIRMWARE ITS A LOT BETTER YOUR ALL SAD IF U PIRATE GAMES AND HOMEBREW SUCKS SOO OTHE POINT IS ?….JUS BUY YOUR GAMES YOU DUMB SON OF A BITCHES
go fuck yourself paul
ITS TRU U FINK YOUR SOO HARD OVER HERE DONT YOU BUT 3.71M33 SUCKS URE JUST RUINING IT FOR PPL HU WANT PSP TO STAY AROUND
okay, you are a fool! downright fool!! the psp is like the calculator - IT AIN’T GOING ANYWHERE, it will ALWAYS BE HERE, A-L-W-A-Y-S!!!!!!!!! WHAT DO YOU GOT AGAINST THE PSP? THE FACT YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO WORK IT?
Give me one example of how Official FW is better! Yeah, thats what I Fu(kin thought. So GTFO of this psp hacking site if all your going to do is cry.
ITS STABLE !!!! FUCK YOU BITCH AND IT SEEMS YOU ARE CRYIN Y WUD U WANT TO PIRATE GAMES JUST BUY THEM IF NO1 BOUGHT EM THE PSP WUD B DEAD
My CFW IS stable. And just because we use CFW doesnt mean we pirate games. There are a lot of us that still buy the good games. No one wants to pay $40 for a shitty game. And why are you here if you dont like this shit. GTFO! Dont be jealous.
THAT WHAT U FINK THERE ARE MANY BUGS IN THIS FIRMWARE AND IM HERE BECAUSE THEY DO PROVIDE DOWNLOAD LINK FOR OFFICAL SONY f/W AND LOTS OF INTRESTIN INFO FOR PSP AND Y WUD I B JEALOUS ???
“U FINK THAT…” is that how you really talk retarded with a lisp?!? the psp won’t die even if sony just quit making psps, and umds there will always be developers of the psp like timwillhack. sorry but its true. so i’ll take it that you don’t know how to use the psp (you stress on games to much)! alot, and i do mean alot, of people use it for other things like putting that last episode of the simpsons from the dvr to the psp. how about using it as a mp3 player at work (sorry PAUL but i don’t think mc donalds lets you use a mp3 player at work LOL) oh, yeah how about slimming up my wallet of all the photos i put on the memory stick! WAIT!, how about the extra $50 i made by selling my remotes (the psp owned them, no searching for any remote they are all on one device), and letting me access any wi fi terminal (and watch it on my tv from slimmie psp) here is three words that best describe the psp and why you should STFU “ALL IN 1″ (NO I’M NOT DESCRIBING YOUR A$$ AFTER A GAY G*NGB*NG)
even if the psp did die i would still have it, because it is dope it does soooooooooo much more than play games.
@ PAUL FRITCHLEY
so you think all homebrewers are pirates? naw, grow up moron! i don’t pirate games and i loathe people that do. imagine if you were the developer and you sold only 1 copy of the game that you put a bunch of hours or days because someone pirated it out all over the internet, that would SUCK HARDER THAN YOU!! as far as you saying that we all are dissing sony STFU fool!
sony RULES all the technology they produce is PIMPED! locationfree 12.1, HD plasmas, PSPs, phones, blu-ray, the pimped out ps3, sony has given great technology!
PAUL FRITCHLEY = ANOTHER LOST SHEEP
NOTE: HE’S REALLY HAPPY WITH HIS FIRMWARE, NO ISO’S, NO HOMEBREW, NO EMULATORS, NO PLUGINS, UMD-DRIVE BECOMING BAD (DUST SETTLES IN DURING FREQUENT USE),,,,, and BUYING A UMD REPLACMENT DRIVE (A NEVER ENDING QUEST)
WHY BOTHER COMING HERE? YOU MUST BE LONELY ;)
LET’S HOPE YOUR “OFFICIAL FIRMWARE 3.71 OF STRAWS ” FROM SONY STANDS UP TO THE BIG BAD WOLF OF 3.71M33+1.50 ADD-ON CUSTOM FIRMWARE AS IT BLOWS IT AWAY.
SWISSSSSSSSSHHHH!!!!!! OWOWOWOW!!!
Click on my name people ^^
i bet hes 1 that cant get home brew etc on his psp sp he pist at evry 1 els haha fag stfu
Will any 1 make a youtube video to show step by step for upgrading from 3.52 m33 v4 to .371 m33 with the patch??? Youtube is what helped me with lumines
try sayin plz bitch
thats what your manly-lover said to you last night
i laughed so hard when i read this that i almost died. i can almost imagine a fat kid with a ds named paul who’s gay lover got mad when he said ‘give me dick’ so he yells ‘try sayin plz bitch’
Hehehehe…. Cool ^_^
Haha… good one there mate. Busted my side. Hell, that Paul guy is one childish ass.
Awesome work of DA! Smooth installation, and all the old homebrew apps work flawlessly now!
Paul will you PLZ get that Copper Pipe out your ass, if you don’t wanna CFW then get off these boards, Its PSP-Hacks.com not PLAYSTATION.com, I Love the fact i can play from NEs to SNES, its pimped, n ALL in 1 lil system, showing off to me friends, its just great
Thats jus sad maybe showin of tour your mates a nu car but psp….. u must av a sad lonley life
Yeah I agree with DP 100%. Plus there are about 100 other things you can do. Play Emulators, ranging from, Nes-SNES-Genesis-N64-ANY PSX game-MAME-DOS-And many more. And apps like, Pimpstreamer, Lite MP3, Wifi Controller, and you cant forget IRShell, just to name a few. So why is OFW better? And dont say more stable, cause you wouldnt know Paul, you dont use CFW.
USBHOSTFS not working….let me know if anyone has it working!!
i have used to and it sucks and i can gurantue most things on your psp are illegal :-) eg roms and most likley iso’s which you dont own the origianal
SO, what r u going to do about it. Just bitch about it like sony.
