PSP Custom Firmware 3.95 GEN Released
greg | June 1, 2008
MIRIAM of the PSP-GEN crew has released the much anticipated custom firmware 3.95 GEN. Overcoming the memory limitations, 3.95 GEN is fully compatible with both the PSP Fat and Slim.
A new version of PopsLoader supporting the 3.95 kernel has been included with the package also.
Installation:
- Copy the PSP folder to the root of the memory stick.
- Download the official 3.95 update and copy it to the root of the memory stick with the name ‘395.PBP’
- Run it and follow the onscreen instructions, the Sony updater will be used for the main flashing.
- At the end it’ll ask you to press X to reboot, do so or you’ll get a brick.
PSP CFW 3.95 GEN changes:
- Kernel updated to 3.95 (new nids, patches etc.).
- Option added in recovery to choose between VSHMenu and in-XMB recovery.
- Option added in recovery to choose between Sony, GEN and M33 network update modes.
Download:

NEATO guys!!!!
Niceeee.
I will still stick with 3.90 M33 – 3. But still great WORK GUYS !!!!!!!!!
me 2
Nice!
but I agree with you guys, 3.90 M33-3 is working out pretty well for me
Some reports of using this upgrade on CFW3.93 don’t work. Using on CFW3.71m33 OK. Now where did I put my Pandora battery?
omfg i just bricked my psp with this!!!!
thanks alot a-holes!!!
hahaha wowowowowowowowowwowowwo i was gonna type who didnt read directions and bricked there psp hahahahahahaahahahah im laguhing so hard so that happened dude pandora it up kidd.
sorry not so *
? pointless unless its gota a better iso driver lol
kinda a good idea to hear reports from other ppl w/ the same type of psp b4 u install a CFW
successful :-)
now to test my ISOs …
is there a 1.5 addon yet?
im gonna try it :)
to ribeater:
you are supposed to read the instructions, at the very beginning says do it a ur own risk thus its your fault a**hole.
dont insult someone who provides u with a free service moron.
@chris – I Dont think so.
@ribeater – Did you press X/0 at the end of the updater like you was supposed to? Also, you can’t blame nobody because that the risk you take with flashing your PSP.
@Jay – ISOs work fine.
@demonchild- STFU!
@demonchild- STFU!!
btw im jewish and proud bitches!!!!!
at tthe two pieces of garbage die and split ur ribz
hahaha go lick some monkeys nutz HAHAHAHHA
ballz
nutz ballz same shit nigga
o yea does it work well with the slim 3.80 m33 – somthing not not sure the of
Very Very Nice I am going to stick with 3.90 too for right now untill I see the need to upgrade…But Thank you very much for giving all of us the chance too use it. Keep doing a great job!
me to I will stay with the 3.90m33-3 until need to up grade keep working you are doing a great job!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sweet! I’m Lovin It!
I like that they want to keep up the scene but it’s worthless. Thank god for nand backups. It litterally felt as if I was on official 3.95. It wouldn’t load any homebrew even with the game393 folder. It wouldn’t load CXMB. It wouldn’t load isos either. It sucks and thank god I backed up my 3.90M33-2. I didn’t like it. I’m using a slim by the way. CFW 3.93 is bad too but at least runs everything but iso and snes9xTYLcm. Stay right where you are cause this is disappointing. And I know for sure I installed it right. I only have these problems from GEN’s firmwares.
Did you try formatting your memory stick?
Everything I have tried loading with this works, including iRshell, PSPRadio, light MP3, PSPTube, and all the ISOs currently on my memory stick load without any problem. The only thing not currently working is CXMB. Later Im going to try flahing a custom theme, and see what happens, if it goes awry rhere is always my Pandora and UPMS. Keep up the great work MIRIAM!!
Chad
so… what so special about this release? other than it is close to 4.0? and release by another party
very frightening.
I’ll stick to 3.90 M33
it serves all my needs . . . . so far.
No thanks, stickin to DAX…just let them handle it. xD
so i have a question to u and the others who said let it up to dax what if this was dax and or dax made an update to this and similar and could brick like these guys what would u do ?????
CFWs from DAX rarely if ever brick, and if they do, it’s almost always because someone didn’t follow the directions.
Well I had 3.93 M33 and it was bloody awful, it kept jamming and locking, the power-suspend would almost never recover and would lock and crash trying to bring the unit back from suspend. I upgraded to this 3.95 and after about 6 hours of play not one lock, suspend has come back clean every single time. I am over the moon all my probs have been fixed with this! Thanks PSP-GEN!
3.93 M33 wasn’t made by DAX, which explains it.
I had no such problems with 3.93 M33.
Nevermind. I’m actually using 3.90 M33 firmware. I went to the Network Update button and I have the latest official M33 firmware. That means Falch is right. 3.93 M33 must’ve been made by someone else.
i kind of had similar problems with m33 fmw. i restored to official firmware and it was all good,then went back to m33 and problems come back. gonna try GEN now and see wats up for me.
I have problem with my PSP slim. It gives me this massage when I try to make update:
Verifying ms0:/395.PBP…
Error: can’t open ms0:/395.PBP.
That happened with the provios CFW with me. Any one can help??
It helps when you read the instructions but up at the top of this page there is a link entitled Official 3.95 Firmware EBOOT. Click that link and download the file. Rename that file and put it in the root of your memory stick and rename it 395.PBP. If it still doesn’t work backup all the files on your Memory Stick and go to settings in the XMB, then system settings, then format memory stick. the problem might be that your memory stick is fux0r3d up. if you listened to me like you should have listened to the instructions then it should work
You need to have the 3.95 update in ms0:/
i think dax has got the corner on the cfw market, trust in dax he never releases anything before its truly ready, so if you dont want to deal with the bugs and glitches stick with Dax, he’s probably waiting until 4.0 to drop his next update and im sure it will be pure gold. as for the GEN crew, i know you guys put a lotta hard work into this and i never look a gift horse in the mouth, but i get the feeling your cfw’s are more pproof of concept than actual functional firwares.
@Tunaijy
i havent tried installing this and dont plan to, but from the sounds of your error it seems like perhaps you need the official sony 395 update on your memory stick in order to create the custom firmware with the updater, but like i said i havent even used it yet and dont plan to.
@tunaijy: And make sure it’s on the root of your memory stick with the name “395.pbp” and not “update.pbp”
what do u mean root of memory stick?
isnt it psp\game\update\ folder ?
I’m sure about the root and the official FW is available too. I have the M33-3 CFW now on my psp and I tryed that for many times and it gives me the same problem.
DAMN! CXMB’s not working on the 3.95 GEN. :( not gud….
cxmb’s will not work since 3.90 and 3.95 have different offsets.
u guys dont worry im just waiting for firmware 4.00 to come out
fucking fake
i figured out how to get rid of this horrible CFW http://forums.maxconsole.net/showthread.php?p=694755#post694755 gp here and do EXACTLY what is says. its the only way to get rid of it. WHen your finished you will have the firmwar 150
The only problem with this is, it only works for a FAT. If you do this on a SLIM it will basically give you a paperweight. Not even pandora will save you.
my only problem is that the popsloader doesnt have option for 3.80 or pops off of flash (3.95) options
also no 3.90 0r 3.93 pops
OMG i just updated and then i put my custom xbox theme on and now it freezes on the start up and now im freackin out!!!!
HELLP PLEASEE
wait i thought you said: if it goes awry rhere is always my Pandora and UPMS. Keep up the great work MIRIAM!!
roflmfao
this cfw works well very well
well done awesome job
give these guys a go there first
one and works very well
so far when ever a new cfw
has been released
themes & apps dont all work
you have to wait for these things
can u go back to 3.90 m33 even tho my psp will onely go in recovery?
I’ll just stick with 3.90 M33-2 for now. :) I’ll upgrade whenever 4.0 M33 comes out.
i just tried this and it works fine so far.the pandora battery maker works and it also works to change battery back tried twice and worked both times. it has messed up yet so i’ll try it until it does but it seems alot more conveinant as well as the pandora function is very handy!!!
If you have more than one battery, you only need to make a pandora battery and stick once, and then put it to the side in a safe place for when the need arises. That’s what I do, but I have an extra battery, it’s easy in my case to have that. I guess if you only have one battery then you would need to make it and then undo it.
*hasn’t
3.95? Are you kiding me? My 1.0 is standing ROCK SOLID!
What would really grab my attention would be if someone could create a plugin to use some of the MS flash memory to increase the capacity of the phat PSP. This could solve a whole bunch of issues that we phat users have.
And no don’t tell me to “go and buy a slim” because I love my phat to death.
Well as Co-Designer of UPMS ill stick with m33 for now. Unless i feel the means to upgrade. I can wait. I have no issues as of yet running 390m33-3 on both my FAT and SLIM.
(hint hint, we might be working on a new UPMS. shhhh)
http://www.Noob911.com
nice jobs…tried out with FloW too…works great guys..
i have successful update my phat PSP from 3.93-2 to 3.95.But my PS1 Games cannot play!!HELP!!!!
I have follow the instruction from http://psp.novinky.org/pspnews/phprs/rservice.php?akce=tisk&cisloclanku=2008080001 still cannot work!HELP!HELP!HELP!
Yes, very true.
The only .prx that doesn’t work is CXMB where it freezes upon booting up. The MS light stays lit and the whole PSP switches off after awhile. Good thing they have the recovery mode…=D
Other than that, there’s nothing wrong with the CFW. But I soooo want my XBox 360 XMB back!!!!
my recovery wont work how do u do it ???
and could u send me the origal XMB for 3.95 to holypants91@yahoo.com
I bought new psp with 3.95v, can I install CFW directly to it or I need to have pandora to do it. I tried it but it is not running on my PSP. It is giving me message”The game could not be started (80020148)”. Please don’t laugh if it is a silly question, I really don’t understand a bit of gaming devices.
You will need to use Pandora
thanks pottyboy
sweet.
First i would like to thank you guy for the hack.
But i keep having this problem updating it..
The message show that
“The game could not be started.(80020148)”
I didnt backup before i tried a custom xmb. I really need a flash0 backup if anyone could get me one. i got my datel pandora thingy coming in the mail but im pretty impatient. Please could anyone make a flash0 backup for psp fat.
How can i return my fat psp to 1.50(the emulators not working anymore) from this fw? i try in recovery menu but….it is not working.
I hadn’t upgraded since OE 2.7 until last week (PSP has all but been forgotten). Of course I went to 3.93.3 and was happy. Since I’m actually still keeping up with PSP stuff (soon again i won’t be), I went ahead and installed this.
I see no noticeable difference between 3.93.3 and this. Yes, some things won’t work as usual, but outside of that it’s a solid release.
Thank you to whoever you all are. At least you are not the ones bitching and moaning when you have done nothing ;-)
ahh i downloaded this ok but im pissed that i cant use cxmb i mean wtf i worked with 3.93 CFW y dosent it work here
yes.. cxmb doesnt work with it… im going back to 3.90 m33-3… some of my isos arent functioning right, but mostly, the psp freezes at boot wen i have cxmb enabled, so for some reason custom firmware themes arent working on this firmware…
if you have a FAT psp here is what you need to do to get rid of this horrible CFW. goto http://forums.maxconsole.net/showthread.php?p=694755#post694755. this is the quickest way to do it. If you have a slim the only way to get rid of it is pandora.
the problem i have is it will not run any recovery Eboots, all i can do is toggle my various usb’s. thats why id like a psp fat flash0 backup
Nope did not work for me
Nice job guys, friendly competition only makes the psp scene better ;)
Even with that said, i’ll stick with DAX for now.
no offense nice update just like daxes so 1 a lil pointless not tryna hurt feelings and 2 i hate the vsh menu from select cuz i liked the one with the full recovery menu showing like in 3.93 by the anonomous hacker who made it
guys. i need the flash0 backup files for PSPslim. i didnt know before i tried that CXMB doesnt work and now im semi-bricked. great.
…….is anyone even reading my helpful messages
u are fake
I have one problem with this firmware when in recovery and i put VSH to off/None cause i don’t want vsh to be used then the PSP Slim i have dosen’t start up again wound not come on untill i enable VSH again in the recovery. Not sure if its a bug but i hope someone has a solution for this thanks.
Works great! Just make sure you read the instructions and follow it.
Thanks Miriam
guys wanting flash0 backups you really should have made a backup man.i wouldn’t back up flash0 that isnt from your psp you may get a problem worse than that firmware break out tha pandora and if you don’t have a pandora y are you testing new cfw?
firstly i would only use this if you have a pandora battery and magic stick just in case it goes wrong , peeps using the 50 themes pack with cxmb.prx revert back to orignal xmb then remove it from vsh or disable it first then do update ……..ALWAYS READ THE INSTRUCTIONS !
hi!gud day!anybody hu has spcific instruction,hu has 3.95 OFW dat is updated to 3.95 GEN?coz i cnt upgrde my 3.95 to GEN,any help pls!tnx!Godbless!
i hav 3.95 OFW,den iv tryng to update it to 3.95 GEN CFW,,it always says that “the game could not b started(8002148)” any help pls!!i wana try dat firmware,coz i gues dats the only way to escape on my OFW 3.95…tnx!help pls!
You can’t “update” from an OFW to a CFW. You’ll need to downgrade your OFW with Pandora and then install the CFW.
This firmware isnt half bad. Tried all the applications and programs on my Jap Blue PSP with no hickups or glitches of any kind. I too am anciously awaiting the Big 4.00, however this is a very nice custom working with the newest of game umd’s. No complaints here, good work guys!!!
I just have 3.93 CFW (no m33), will it still work?
It should.
if im update my psp to 3.95gen can read iso
i dunno
has anybody ever thought that sony could be posing as a psp development group and making CFWs for the purpose of like a major killing of psps with CFW.
I want to return to 3.90 m33! recovery dont work!
goto the website i posted if ur using a fat psp
Yeah, I’m gonna skip this until DAX makes a new one, I’m hearing more than 10 negative reports, it’s better off to listen to people’s problems with the CFW before actually installing it, even if they screwed up on instructions.
Installed it yesterday. Won’t boot because of my CXMB. Removed CXMB, boot ok after. Checked the sleep features of Internet radio which doesn’t work with 3.90 m33-3. Works fine! Tried to open it today. Won’t boot again even without CXMB and memory stick. Guess it’s semi-bricked. I will downgrade to 3.90 m33-3. Thank you Pandora – DCv5! Lesson learned — wait for Dark-Alex’s version.
Nice brick. Are there any updates to this? My fatty just crashed!
Chilly Willies key patch helped. Take care. Downgrader may CLONE. Make sure you delete .dat file in flash 2.
Just installed, no problems at all. ISO loaded straight away.
Great job boys, keep up the good work :)
hey can you do this without the pandora battery mod?
It works great… just like 3.93 by Gens. They have M33/DA’s OK. Don’t be so paranoid… the guys who can’t follow the readme… :-)
*Update* GEN-2 just released !
i put the 395.pbp, which i downloaded from the sony site as the eboot file, in the root of the memory stick. why can’t the 395 GEN updater open the 395.pbp? its on the root and named correctly, is it not? i’ve never had this problem before.
im running cfw 3.93… wait it says “System Software Version 3.93″ is that normal for the cfw? cause i remember it saying “3.90 cfw” before, it think? if i did magically revert to official firmware though, i wouldn’t have the recovery menu right? cause i have that.
i don’t actually need to update to 3.95 cfw but i have nothing better to do so any help will be appreciated.
grrrr my isos dont work and i dont kno why
rarw help please or ill just be sticken to roms and homebrews
so this is a safe cracked version? i just want to be able to play god of war on my fatty ..
