All good things must come to an end… Ahman, developer of iR Shell — probably the best homebrew to ever exist for the PSP — has waved goodbye leaving behind one final release.
iR Shell is literally packed with a remarkable feature set for both Slim and Fat models — listen to MP3’s while in-game, multi-task between UMD/ISO/homebrew and any of iR Shell’s built-in functions, enjoy 2 player PSOne games wirelessly with another PSP, etc… The fun never stops!
If you’re a newcomer, I suggest you download and open the included PDF-formatted user guide to get started. You won’t be disappointed.
New iR Shell 3.9 features:
- Added support for 3.80M33-2, M33-4 & M33-5. Pls note M33-1 & M33-3 are not supported due to some technical issues which I’m lazy to resolve.
- Added support for 3.80 Popsloader Version 2. Version 1 isn’t supported.
- The 1.5 Kernel Addon for 3.71M33 & 3.80M33 has caused some incompatibility issues with fw 1.5 iR Shell. This is now resolved.
- Enhance PSP ISO compatability. Previously failed ISOs will probably work in this release.
- For slim only, the nethostfs MAX mode is now compatible with WPA.
- Some older firmware supports have been removed to reduce the distribution archive. This version has support for fw 1.5, 3.10 to 3.80. Also, directories EXTAPP15 & EXTAPP3X have been combined into a single EXTAPP to save space. Each APP# directory has 2 EBOOTs, with EBOOT.PBP for fw 3.x and EBOOT15.PBP for fw 1.5.
Farewell Ahman. We at PSP Hacks wish you success in your future endeavors.

gr8 work
i have fw 1.5on my psp and i cant get the ir shell 3.9 to work how come?
farewell ahmen, irshell is great
Ahman thank you for your work and all I have to say about you leaving is “ah man, why?”
omg ppl are retarded. HES NOT GONE. 1) Why do you think it says 3.9 not 4.0 on a final release? 2) omg nubs, HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO LEAVE WHEN HE MADE 2.2 (or 2.0). hes doing this to get donations, and i can hardly blame him. but just so you dumbasses know, hes not gone. hes still going to make them, it will just be about a month or two
u guys r nerds
ur a nerd Ih8N00BS
A NERD!!!
Is that the best you can do? Nerds? Come on.
if hes leaving, why donate. he should release the source if hes leaving so someone else can pick up future releases.
Ahman, dont leave!!!
Good luck on your future, and amazing job on irShell :-D
Perfect, just perfect!
You’re the best, but im sorry that you have to go… :(
I Hope it’s just a vacation!!!
Im having trouble booting iso/cso with this new irshell. i use m33 driver in the config. restart irshell and it still asks me to insert umd. looks to be some kind of bug….maybe ahman should wait to leave and do a 4.0 bug fix release.
So excited about this release. If only he wasn’t leaving :(
Finally, now homebrew developers can use the source code (HexEdit) to update their plugins like the XMB/Game&HB-mp3 Player!?
@ThatOneGuy
Run the patch. EVERYONE RTFM.
i donated $90 to ahman and begged him to stay

i try to patch to 3.80 n it dont work it said firmware does not support. what shold i do. i’m running on 3.80m33-5. please help.
I think you’re suppose to run the 3.0 patch for the 3.8 m33. That’s what the guide says (the one that comes with the download folder)
there no 3.80 patch anywhere
yeah, but there’s a 3.0 patch. Read the guide, very helpful.
Thanks Ahman for this by the way! I’m new to the scene but I can tell that you were freakin awesome. Good luck with everything
Ahman,
Instead of begging you to stay, but I wish you great luck. I appreciate everything. And so does everyone else.
I wish you would stay, because I’m sure custom firmwares will be updated, but… I thank you for all the work you’ve done.
How do you get the isos to run
Farewell everyone! I will miss you but I have to leave the scene because im trying to move on. Sorry everybody feel free to donate.
Hey bro great work, In my opinion Fukn legend. I hope you stack some bundles. The scene ( INcluding $ony) will miss you.
To bad Ahman is leaving…. :’(
well thanks for all your hard work! I wonder what new thing your going to do or whatever you usually do.
Great job on everything Ahman, sad to see you leave, but good luck in the future.
never mind my comment i forgot to patch the file for homebrew.
finally!
sorry to see you go.
Good luck in the afterlife :) lol
“the game could not be started (80020148)” 3.80 M33-2 firmware. I’ve poked around the net and couldn’t find any answers…any help guys?
dam.dont leave.we need i.r shells for when custom firmwares upgrade.
Have a good one, as far as best homebrew ever? I dont know about that. I for one could never stand IRShell. But as always I appreciate anyone who makes the scene that much better.
I appreciate the work gone into this but I can’t say I like it much. It feels pretty clumsy and awkward to use and doesn’t feel as intuitive as it could be. Personally I just wanted the usbhost stuff and can do that with the custom firmware extender.
Still, good luck to the author with whatever they plan to do next.
tell some1 tell me how do i load this on my psp i never used irshell b4 thanks great work
there is a nice well typed up readme in the download.
just paste the psp and seplugins folders onto the root of your memorystick, then go into the plugins option in recovery mode and enable the plugin
thanks m8
cool work, and farewell, Ahman
when ever i try to run a iso it just boots up my umd, a bug? or something i need to change in the options?
ahh i installed the 3. -3.40 patch now it works :)
Thank you for your hard and excellent work on IRShell for all those years, real dedication to make things work for us. Revolutionizing achievement, you have a place in PSP hacking hall of fame sir. Thank you again.
Best of luck to you Ahman! You contribution to the PSP scene is greatly appreciated.
One of the best PSP apps out there. But if he’s leaving, he should at least give out the source code to someone he knows (or trusts). I mean, he wasted all that time to develop, update, distrubute AND support it… oh well.
IR Shell will go down in history no doubt about it.
RemoteJoy and all the other USBhostFS stuff doesn’t work.
Great way to retire, Ahman…
is this will work in 3.71m33-4? how to install this homebrew application? thanks
yes it will work check the 6th page in the pdf for installation instructions.
