Sony to Release PSP Firmware 3.95 Soon… Very Soon!

greg | April 7, 2008

Update: So soon, its already happened… Grab 3.95 via Network Update or by following the download link below.


I see a new firmware arising, I see Sony on the way…

Straight from Eric Lempel, Director of PlayStation Network Operations —

PSP Firmware 3.95:

  • While playing PSone games on your PSP, you can now customize how the buttons are assigned by going to [Controller Settings] > [Assign Buttons] and select [Custom].
  • You can now quit Remote Play and choose to turn off your PS3 or leave it on after quitting. This is useful if you are performing a download and want to quit Remote Play, but still want your download to continue on the PS3. Select [Quit and Turn Off the PS3 System] or [Quit Without Turning Off the PS3 System] from [Quit Remote Play] when you press the HOME button on the PSP system.

Download: PSP 3.95 FW Update

Comment by nedthehead
2008-04-07 21:47:06

Sony was released to release 4.00 at the beginning of this year. My best guess is they have some new feature planned out for it, so instead of delaying 4,00 even more, they decided to release what they already had planned for 4.00 in this 3.95 update

i read somwhere that there is going to be “flash 7″ for slim on 4.00

Comment by mmm

That would be great, but I hope it doesn’t require activation.
Yes, I am not using CFW on my slim.

2008-04-07 22:17:14

*sighs* well nothing new except for that ps3 thing. you can assign buttons with popsloader, so i dont think its useful, or exciting. I hope DAX doesn’t minceake a custom firmware with this, it wouldn’t make sense. just wory about 3.90m33 and try to make it more stable than it is, because by the look of this, we wont see the big “4.0″ in a while.

“I see a new firmware arising, I see Sony on the way…”
C’mon Greg! So cheesy haha.
Anyhow, I like how I see everyone gushing over 4.0 when they have no idea what it will be. I cant wait to laugh in all of your faces when its just a “improved mp3 playback” update.
Its just a number folks, just a number.

Comment by Midian
2008-04-07 22:26:40

every time all 3 digits change its a “major update”
like 2.00 added internet
3.00 added better video playback, etc
and 4.00 should be something even better

Playstation 2 Portable Station?
Maybe extra support for the usb port, it would be nice to see some add-ons in the future.

Can someone ask me HOW DOES THESE RANDOM firmware numbers X.XX get named?

It went to 3.90 to 3.95 why not 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or any other numbers? is it on the amount of updates they make to make the number or just a made up number to make it look cool?

Comment by Alucard
2008-04-07 23:19:16

I forgot about 3.93 since its a gay firmware. well why not 4-9

 
Comment by Namakemono456
2008-04-08 01:05:11

There was a 3.91… all the other small points were probably internal devs. Other than that they follow the standard model of a ones digit being a large update, a 10th being a medium grade update, and a 100th being a relatively insignificant update (usually reserved for bug fixes). The stall with getting to 3.95 is probably because they dont want to waste a big 4.00 on an update yet.

 
Comment by mmm
2008-04-08 01:16:33

I’m pretty sure that 3.91, 3.92, 3.94 were only released on UMDs like that same way that PS3 went from 2.10 to 2.17. I havent found a that 2.16 is included on GT5 Prolog.

Can anyone else turn on the PS3 using remote play over the internet? I can turn it on using the private network, or using the internet while on my private network, but I have to have the PS3 in remote play to use it over the internet (not on my network). Anyone else have this problem?

What they really need is the ability for the left analog stick to act as a left analog stick in PS1 games…

Comment by mmm

I’m pretty sure that it can.

Check your settings. It’s there.

Comment by Widge
2008-04-11 10:05:55

Hm, I’ll have to check this. So far the analogue usually has the Dpad directions mapped to it, meaning you get 8 directions of motion from it. Bit of a bugger for the likes of Gran Turismo and Metal Gear Solid. With MGS hitting Japan, I would expect them to put full analogue nub support in.

2008-04-08 02:35:08

what’s with 4.00 fw? if the total size of that fw decreases and increase of effeciency in memory management with additional module enhancements then it’s worth creating a cfw from it.

 
Comment by JooNkeN
2008-04-08 03:41:00

“You can now quit Remote Play and choose to turn off your PS3 or leave it on after quitting. This is useful if you are performing a download and want to quit Remote Play, but still want your download to continue on the PS3. Select [Quit and Turn Off the PS3 System] or [Quit Without Turning Off the PS3 System] from [Quit Remote Play] when you press the HOME button on the PSP system.”

Currently, you may turn on your PS3 via PSP by enabling Remote Start under the remote play options on your PS3. Available options for quitting remote play are: Turn off PS3 System, Quit Remote Play.

The former does as it states. The latter merely quits the connection on the PSP’s end so that you may use your PSP as you would regularly. However, your PS3 will stay in “Remote Play Mode.”

Do background downloads not resume while the PS3 is in “Remote Play Mode”? This shouldn’t be the case, since I can see the downloads going while I’m in Remote play through my PSP.

I’m currently using 3.90M33-3. As to if this option was put in the CFW before Sony, I have no idea. Does anybody have <3.95 Official firmware that can confirm this?

why would you want to? the psp gives me cramps, and it doesn’t have all the buttons required for ps3 games.

Comment by Jaryth000
2008-04-08 06:55:58

Yes there are…. But how much of them have done SO much for the Homebrew Scene? Sure homebrew still would have gotten by… but, it was DAX that pushed it to what it is today.

“..,ok hes done good to a homebrew scene,..”

DAX didn’t do good to a homebrew scene, he did great to the PSP homebrew scene! if it wasnt for him, will there be anyone piloting CFWs for now? (Fanjita may be but he quit because of some stupid people)

2008-04-08 13:28:20

I don’t use remote play as I don’t have a PS3. Fully changeable PS1 controls are good though. If DAX thinks that the remote play thing isn’t that big a feature then he might as well just update Popsloader.

 
Comment by Sudo
2008-04-08 14:24:13

Sony will do anything they can to increase publicity, and to certify that the PSP is not dying, releasing small, regular(ish) updates will help. Just like Windows Update, I’m sure there are people that don’t know what these updates do, but are worried if they don’t update something bad will happen. Sony feeds on people like that, and as long as those people exist, you will continue seeing small updates like these.

Comment by pottyboy
2008-04-08 14:28:17

Ah yes but Windows updates are actually important, especially as most of them are security ‘fixes’ :)

4.00 is just a number. If they add something cool like divx support or something that’s cool. But who gives a crap about what number it is? 3.97 could be better than 4.00 (if there ever is a 3.97 or 4.00)

how bout the ability to use animated gif’s as icon’s? how bout the ability to actually play my ps3 games on my psp? how bout they make it so i can stream mp3s and music to my psp from my ps3 while still playing the ps3? how bout they take their head out of their ass and think a little bit about what they set out to do in the first place which was make everything linkable and compatible? all i can do now with this crap is browse my ps3 xmb with my psp, that’s great if i wanna different theme for the moment.

if your sick of windows but your too cheap for a mac (or your smart enough to know mac sucks) use linux for all your OS needs. its far more stable than either and it can run on pc or mac hardware.
