i installed this FW over my CF to see how the TV recording stuff works, well… I still haven’t tried it yet but I think I’ll record some shows when I get home. The new revisualization thingy isn’t that so great as you’ll expect and it only contains 1 new crappy visuals.

i swear sony is just holding back SO much, jeez.

they can EASILY divide the firmware regionally, that way, they can remove the jap fonts from U.S. PSP’s and have more space to satisfy teh average consumer.

THINK SONY!, USE YOUR PEANUT OF A BRAIN!

ugh, one new visualizer ooooo, fuck off, the only DESCENT ones are the first 3, the cubes and the 2 floating lights suck dick.

jeez <_<, just make the custom FW and upgrade IRSHELL and i’m good

Comment by zephroelectro
2007-12-18 17:28:38

they probly won’t ever remove the jap fonts since alot of english people use them (as crazy as it sounds).

and oh… who would’ve wanted some TV recording functions when the one that’ll record (Jdrama, anime) can be downloaded on the internet with a way better resolution. Here in japan you’ll bore yourself with some NEWS NEWS NEWS and variety shows. Most of the dramas and animes are airing on office hours (I hope my boss would not catch me recording TV shows under my desk LOL) and 1seg (TV signal) is not as many as some local channels and most of it have a very small resolution (welll ofcourse the target users of 1seg are mobile phone users) OH! did I have just waste ur time reading this??? LOL さすがソニー!

New visualizer would be the only thing I would use…and that’s not much incentive to re-customize my 3.52-4 if a new CFW were made.
Where do you see it say that you can record TV?

yes you wasted my time, asshole. I want it back…paypal.

I believe this update is exclusive for japanese PSP’s. If you try to install this on US or other country’s psp i think problem would arise. But of course if mess things up… PANDORIZE it

Do not install this until you fully understand what it will do to you. I don’t want to put anybody down, just do some research first so you dont’ end up screewed by your own actions. Peace.

Ok I’m new here, just wanted to know if any of you people can help me out putting a custom firmware. I have 3.72 and I just would like to know how to install a custom firmware with homebrew capabilities. Thanx in advance to anyone who responds back to me.

Comment by eddib
2007-12-18 12:15:58

you need a pandora battery and magic memory stick (ebay). or if you know sb with a PSP on cfw, you can ask him to pandorize yr battery and donwgrade from there, you can then convert yr battery back to a normal one.
try googling downgrade psp pandora, you should find all the information tou need

there’s a tutorial on installing without needing a Homebrew PSP here:

You can get the TOOL battery at codejunkies.com

do you think we can add the visualizer from this fw to our 3.52 m33 ?

I would add a warning that you can’t run homebrew on this update otherwise there will always be some young ones that update and then come to the forums crieng that there homebrew doesn’t work anymore

I disagree — It’s those type of people who don’t deserve a modded PSP.

Hello…. anybody? I read that I need to use pandora battery and someone else’s PSP with at custom firmware… but I don’t know anyone with a custom firmware. Please, can anyone help me out? Something, anything?

Do you live in Zimbabwe or some african region where noone ever heard of a PSP ? Don’t you know any good forums from your country ? Try asking on some trackers (from your country, yeah).

What are you ? Like 10 years old ? You see “Add comment” and you HAVE to add a comment… Yes, you need a PSP with a custom firmware. DON’T ASK HERE, ask on forums. Here’s a good place to start: http://www.psp-hacks.com/forums

HIVer, if you are good in electronics, you can do some changes to your battery and make it pandora battery that way. Its super complicated though, and you may lose your battery. Just use google to find the instructions. Or you can send it for someone that has Custom Firmware, thats what i did, and now i have 3.52 M33

Comment by DSpider
2007-12-18 09:35:24

It’s not mandatory. 3.71 m33-3 works more than ok. I’ll stick to that until I come across a game that requires a higher firmware (like WipEout Pulă). That’s right, PULĂ. You heard me.

Comment by drdre74
2007-12-18 11:21:49

some of the new demos need higher than 3.71. I tried to play the new Locoroco christmas demo and it said i need a higher firmware.

What’s with this 3.80 m33 talk? Dark_Alex left guys, it’s over. T_T AND if he didn’t, then it’s Hell Dash_X. Let’s hope it is our boy Alex. ^_^ So yeah, 3.80 HD_X

Comment by jesse
2007-12-18 14:11:11

are you f***ing serious…go to dark-alex.org

he hasnt left yet..and he just made the new multidisc popsloader so he hasnt left yet.

Team M33 said they would stop at 3.71 M33 when they had finalised it then they would wait for a major change in the coding before making any new CFWs. This is that major change. The only reason CFWs weren’t released for 3.72 and 3.73 is because they were tiny updates that barely changed the code aswell, which is also why (no offence or flaming intended) HellDash_X was able to make his CFWs over them. I’m sure M33 will be back, they can’t resist a challenge ;)

3.80 M33 please lol! I want the remote play more than the radio. I doubt Id ever use it.

theres also a hidden feature about this firmware

u can now do remote play with ps1 games on ur ps3 tht being the game discs or downloaded games

 
Comment by MysterySword
2007-12-18 14:39:14

Another feature that’d be good for CFW is dual-boot. I’d be nice to test out 3.80 OFW while still keeping 3.71M33…

Comment by ...
2007-12-18 15:25:25

i do belive that they made something like that. i think it’s eLoader. If not, try this:

Search through it and you may get something your looking for.

Comment by MysterySword
2007-12-18 15:39:55

Hmm… DevHook wouldn’t support booting with 3.80 I believe. eLoader is just for homebrew enabling.

man Dark_AleX is seriously brewing up a dam good mix of cfw i think. i am loving the sound of internet radio streaming.

is it gonna be a hassle for me to go from 3.52m33-4 to 3.80m33?
I hope it isnt’t.

Does Pandora Battery work well on Windows Vista or do I need to do this on an XP computer? It doesn’t let me work “mspformat” when I try doing it. Again, help would be greatly appreciated. And as for a comment, umm… custom firmwares rule!!! now only if I knew how to use them.

I will only update to 3.80 M33 if all bugs are fixed or most bugs. im pretty sure they will make some bugs and get fixed right away when they know

Alright this is some bull$h*t… why dont they put in game XMB on both PSP and PS3… it will take a while for sony to code it but i know its possible because on psp theres a simple 48kb cfw plugin that makes in XMB… my PSP bricked and pandoras battery wont work. i got the new lite PSP… if only sony would make there own type of plugins that came in update form and added it to a certain flash drive… That would skyrocket PSP sales every where and would make it possible to develop uneeded downgraders!!!

to XMB i think ur right about uneeded downgraders…… all everybody really wants is in game xmb….. i got cfw on my psp only to music while playing my games….. sure cfw is useful for other things– i just want in game xmb!!!!!!

Using the update 3.71 MM-4 and the expansion remote play from 3.73, you can update the psp to remote play to both PS3 firmwares 2.00 and 2.10…works perfect. I really wanted the 3.80MM update until I tried this little experiment. If you know what your doing…enjoy reconnection to the PS3.

Right now I am going to try something incredibly stupid… i have an original 1.00 psp nand laying around… since the PSP slim can run programs written in 1.00 code… it might be able to to actualy run the old original firmware…because 1.50 is different than 1.00. Not sure what it can actualy do besides play launch games, but it may work…will post after I brick it, hahaha. Wish me luck.
