Dark_AleX Updates — 3.71 M33-2 & 1.50 Kernel Addon 2

greg | October 2, 2007

Two updates from the D man himself…

3.71 M33 Update #2:

  • There was a bug that caused corruption when writing files of more than 32256 bytes using usb flash. The bug has been corrected, and now the implementation is as reliable as it was when it was based on 1.50 kernel. (tested with a full restoration of a dump)
  • Psp Slim: a functionality to let the charge of battery when connecting a usb cable has been added. This feature is based on Noobz plugin code. By default is not enabled, you can enable it in recovery. Note that the charge of battery may be delayed some seconds since the moment you plug the cable.
  • After installing this update, program at /PSP/GAME/UPDATE will always be executed on 3.71 kernel, despite configuration.
  • VSHMenu: vshmenu will not be executed when onscreen keyboard is active, to avoid the lost of the select button function in the keyboard. An option to reset the psp has been added.
  • VSH plugins are not longer executed anymore in recovery mode, that was the cause of pseudo-bricks.

Two bugs remain: the WLAN network error, and the PSP Slim psx game change of brightness. Dark_AleX notes, “These two bugs are copyright of Sony :) happens too in OFW.”

1.50 Kernel Addon #2:

  • When returning from sleep mode, 3.71 ipl was executed causing an inmediate crash. Fixed.

Have a good one!

Redownload, zip files sometimes download incorectly. It did the same thing first time I downloaded, retried and worked perfect. Thank you Dax for this update, and I personaly appreciate your efforts. Thank you for everything you have done for the Homebrew PSP community. Farewell and good luck Sir Dax.

Just updated to 3.71 M33-2 and installed the 1.50 kernel addon 2 and my UMDs aren’t working anymore. After the PSP screen it goes to a black screen and after a few seconds it turns my PSP off. Same thing happens with ISOs / CSOs. Is this happening to anyone else?

Comment by whitelightnig

Comment by Whoa!
2007-10-03 00:22:00

How bout a patch/reverse devhook/somethin? Probably being worked on, but kept secret to keep people from whining that it’s not being done fast enough. Try the Eloader for now. Most 1.5 emus and homebrew load on my Slim with Eloader. (remember they made it for 2.71, not 1.5 as you don’t need an Eloader for 1.5) So try that for now…

Ok.. So I have spent the last hour downgrading from 3.71 M33 because my homebrew did not work with the ad-on… when I got to 3.52 M33 4 I was crashing… Now that I am one more step to get back to my original 3.52 M33 2… He releases an update? WTF? I’m tired of this.. I’m staying at 3.53 M33 2 until I really see a difference….. GOD

I don’t have any problems with the 1st 1.50 add-on, all my psx’s and emu’s work fine with no problem, and i have better loading times with my games and faster FPS with my emu’s. maybe its cuz i have a ta-82 MB not sure but all my firends who have a ta-79/80 MB are not as quik in loading then mine. Im not sure, but imma hold off on this add-on untill i see a crash or shutdown or something, thanks again D_A

Im sorry but the only people who HATE CFW are PEOPLE who don’t know what the hell their doing as far as downgrading, and upgarding. Any Sony has it coming to them, the screwed me over when just after 8 months my ps3 broke due to the power supply, Sony has great ideas to try a make it back and beat up the DS with its cool feature, But after 2 years, they say NO to CFW, Stup Ass’s

Comment by vietro
2007-10-03 01:50:14

like braindead said, you put the update folder in the psp/game folder, then you need to get the 1.5 update eboot, rename it “150.PBP” and put it on the root of your memory stick, just run the program and thats it, remember that the hombrew folder in the recovery has to be in 3.71 kernel. ok good luck.

Comment by DeMoNiCz
2007-10-03 11:05:57

i did the same on the first 1.50 add-on, there was no problem, but for add-on 2,i cant update it, i hv put update eboot 1.5 and rename it 150.PBP, put it on the root. anyway thx. ^^

Comment by vietro

Comment by simpsim
2007-10-03 02:51:47

I also had to go back to 3.52 M33-2, as I could no longer use irshell. I think the issue of the leak has caused this, as the problem was with the prx not loading. So hopefully an update in either the CFW or in irshell will mean I can take advantage of this version in the future. Until then, I’m sticking with 3.52 M33-2

After installing this update, program at /PSP/GAME/UPDATE will always be executed on 3.71 kernel, despite configuration

- this is pretty useful for those who always forget to set it to 3.71 kernel then keeps asking questions

150 Addon-on v2

- don’t forget to place 1.50 EBOOT.PBP rename it to 150.PBP and place to MS root
