Custom Firmware 3.71 M33-3 w/ PopsLoader Released!

Posted by greg

As promised, here it is — from the man who makes it do what it do — PSP custom firmware 3.71 M33-3. As the title implies, a new working version of PopsLoader is also included. Props Dark_AleX!

3.71 M33-3 changes:

  • Fixed a bug in access to flash by usb.
  • HEN core: kernel prx’s with syscall exports work again.
  • PSP Slim: programmers can set the size of user memory to 52 MB by using a sfo flag. Check sample in sdk for usage.
  • March33 NO-UMD driver:
    • Fixed a bug that could hang the psp when exiting with home.
    • Fixed compatibility issue with Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles, and maybe more games.
  • Vshmenu: it wasn’t displaying properly with psp slim TV-OUT due to the change of resolution. Fixed.

PopsLoader changes:

  • Support for 3.71 and 3.72 pops has been added. Note that 3.71 however will not appear in the list in 3.71 M33 as it is not necessary.

Download: CFW 3.71 M33-3

    I just updated and all is fine except for when I go to play a PSX game and it asks me to choose the PRX. No matter which I choose, the PSP freezes. I have all the popsman.prx’s all the way up to 3.52. What am I doing wrong?

    on maxconsole DAX said that it would work by replacing some files..I don’t know where to find them though, or what to do with them lol

    cool, i’ll see if i can find it, thank you.

    Comment by d
    2007-11-08 15:13:44

    There have been people reporting that it works with the thing of replacing vsh/module/premo_plugin.prx and vsh/resource/premo_plugin.rco
    is this true? if so, do i need to get official 3.72 and dump the files to my desktop, then replace the older file with the newer file from 3.72? and do i have to decrypt it as well? im not to sure.

    Comment by adam
    2007-11-08 15:22:21

    i’ve dumped the files which it says i need, but when i go to flash1 there’s not all of the folders showing up..it says somewhere about making sure that you have selected view system files and view hidden files or something, how do i see them? if you tell me i’ll report back on if remot play works

    -Thanks

    2007-11-08 17:56:28

    you need to show the hidden files by opening any folder on your computer, click tools at the top menu where “file” and everything is. click “folder options” or something like that. go onto the “view” tab when that opens. then look for the ’show hidden files and folders. click ok. that should be it :)

    adam if your on vista open any folder on your desktop, then go to organize, (its on top left corner), click on that and got to layouts then check menu, that should have brought up file, edit, view, tools ect…now click on tool and got to folder option, click that. a window should pop up, click on the view tab.. now look for something called, show hidden files and folder. check it, then see if your files come up

    I can’t even get M33 3.71 to fly personally. Copied all files, fire it up, it sez I need M33 3.52-3 or later and I’m on 4. The only instruction I’m not sure on is #2 Make PSP run game folder in 3.xx kernal mode. What the heck does that mean??

    Any ideas out there people?

    Thanx

    OIC

    MAKE SURE YOU KERNEL IS SET TO 3.52
    you can do this in recovery mode
    start the psp up whilst holding the R shoulder button down,go to configuration find the option for kernel and make sure it’s on 3.52

    Thats got it

    Download Sony Official Firmware 3.72
    Download M33_NEWPSARDUMPER from DA’s Site
    Extract data.psar from 3.72 eboot with PBP Unpacker (not sure if this was necessary or not)
    Open USB Connection and put 3.72 eboot and data.psar in root of mem stick
    Put PSARDUMPER in Game (make sure kernel is on 3.71 in recovery menu)
    Run Psardumper
    Press Square
    After it’s done dumping, open USB Connection and copy premo_plugin.prx (f0\vsh\module) and premo_plugin.rco (f0\vsh\resource) and paste them somewhere for safe keeping
    You can delete f0 now
    Open recovery menu on PSP (right bumper and turn on with PSP still connected to PC)
    Go to advanced
    Select Toggle USB (flash0)
    A new window should pop up on your PC
    Make sure you have hidden files and system files viewable
    Replace premo_plugin.prx (vsh\module) and premo_plugin.rco (vsh\resource) with the ones you copied
    Select Toggle USB (flash0) to disable
    Restart PSP i guess it works… no need to update to 3.72… and still be able to keep 1.50 kernal.. give it a try see it it works… im gona try right now… i’ll post back to see if it works.

    Hi, I have a question on UPDATING FIRMWARE.
    I am currently at “3.02 OE-B” (i know i have no been on the seen for a long time). I currently can not run certain iso’s due to my lower firmware. So my question is, can I just update to the latest firmware from 3.02OE-B? or do I have to update the the next firmwares that immediately follow the current. (ex. 3.02OE-A then B and then C…)

    Thanks for the info. Any help would be great.

    Actually, You need to upgrade your PSP to CFW 3.52 M33-3 or 4 to Upgrade to 3.71 M33. I highly suggest you upgrade to at least 3.52 M33-4 since it’s still pretty nice, though if you have a PS3, Remote Play doesn’t work anymore without a higher firmware ( I just know the 3.72 HX-1 Works). Hope this answered your question…

    Thanks for the info, I just downloaded the “3.52 M33-3″ update but i can’t seem to find any instructions in the .rar that tell me what to do again with the file. Do I just copy the EBOOT.PBP from the PSP\GAME150\M33Update3\ Folder and place it in the GAME150 folder on my psp (as well as the “seplugins” folder??
