Custom Firmware 4.01 M33 Released

greg | June 28, 2008

Ah, ha! Where we last left off Sony unexpectedly released firmware 4.01 while Dark_AleX was in the midst of developing 4.00 M33. Today, the continuation of our episode has come to a delightful end. Dark_AleX strikes with force and delivers the much anticipated custom firmware 4.01 M33.

4.01 M33 changes:

  • Bug fix: vshmenu didn’t let change camera mode due to camera_plugin using select button. Fixed, now vsh menu will not be loaded when using the camera.
  • Recovery can now be translated, See how below. Translation to Spanish is auto included.
  • Updated the M33 SDK with a new function and sample, and released the psp-packer tool to compress prx’s and PBP’s in the ~PSP format.
  • The folder of 4.01 and higher homebrew will be GAME4XX so it won’t need change on update.

Also mentioned in the readme: the 1.50 kernel add-on for the PSP Fat will be released tonight.

Download:
Custom Firmware 4.01 M33
Sony’s 4.01 Update EBOOT (401.PBP)

So there isn’t a tutorial and help section on this site?
If you don’t want to help them don’t be rude, just don’t say anything, or help them. Like I mentioned try the tutorial section or help section in the forums and you should be able to figure it out.

To those asking for instructions:

Just go to the DarkAlex site where you can read the instructions for 4.01 M33. Or just read the file that says “READ ME” in the ZiP/RAR download file.

OFFICAL DarkAleX 4.01 M33 Download & Instructions here:

Plugins I’ve Tested…

*Popsloader from 3.80M33 works
*CXMB plugin does NOT run
*Remote joy runs fine
*Screenshot plugin works

IF: vsh or recovery does not work:
Add en_recover.txt (blank text file) to your seplugins folder to fix recovery/vsh

Comment by Bob
2008-06-28 18:00:59

Just to be clear…sony releases 4.00, realizes there’s a problem and rushes 4.01 out the door…

This causes DA/M33 absolutely NO problem whatsoever and he just creates CFW 4.01, seeing as there’s no reason to make 4.00M33 and 4.01M33…

Maybe I’m going out on a limb here, but my guess is that DA is, in fact, God…

3.95 GEN is a custom firmware (CFW) not an official firmware (OFW).

And no, you can’t directly upgrade.

ALEX: PLEASE integrate DL from the Internet Explorer directly to the ISO folder! Can’t be that hard, and I would owe you a big 1!!!

Where is the fucking save state here in this firmware Dax? Does Cwcheat work in this firmware? Is it Stable? Does Custom Firmware Extender work in this firmware? DaX plaease add more features in this firmware: just like hide a file or game.
but most importantly the save state that you can save anywhere in game.

You’ll need the new CXMB, which you can find posted a couple of times in these comments. Be advised that none of your 3.90 CXMB themes will run on 4.01 though. They’ll need to be upgraded.

Dude, you need to downgrade your system. Go to the forum section of this site and then the help section. Lots of tutorials there.

If you’re on 3.95 GEN you can’t just upgrade to 4.01 M33. You’ll need to downgrade and then upgrade to M33 firmwares.

LOL…401 M33-2 is out already…if you were DA, maybe you’d know that it’s out already…some people like to imitate celebrities…others like to imitate good programmers…

also, 1.5 kernal has been released for the phat psp…great work DA!

If you’re not interested in the new features– which is understandable– then don’t update. There’s nothing super compelling here yet. I updated because I’m obsessed with being up-to-date, lol.

I have 4.01 m33 and 1.5 kernel add on, and when im in a homebrew and i put it into sleep mode and i try to get it out of sleep mode, it just shuts off. how can i fix this

Comment by nyr2k2
2008-06-29 15:33:23

Did it do that before you updated to 4.01 M33? Many homebrews and emulators freeze in sleep mode, and there’s no fix (unless the dev of that app fixes it in a subsequent release).

use psp grader lite v005 and then just use the program to put the ipl on your ms

Can somebody tell me if (icons, fonts, waves, gameboots) from 3.80 are compatible with this?

Comment by Foolmonkey
2008-06-29 16:31:58

gameboots will always work because they aren’t firmware specific. on the other hand, opening_plugin.rco has to be converted to 4.01 but i know that you can still change clicking sounds and also custom volume bars still work. and i’m pretty sure fonts should still work.

gen is a very good cfw becuz it can make a pandora’s jij-kick battery on the recovery menu and back 2 normal easy. Dark_Alex makes cool thing 2 like cxmb he need to make jij-kick battery on the recovery menu only (i have 2 psp one with 3.95 gen and the other with 3.90 m33-3 both r so cool

 
Comment by gen/m33
2008-06-30 04:15:47

4.01m33 can NOT run cxmb’s i do not like that and 4.01m33-2 can NOT also. I hope that they fix that or i stay on cfw 3.90m33-3 (i have a psp with 3.95 GEN to make my pandoras jij-kick battery to fix my first psp so i have 2 psp’s,one to fix the other and the other one to test every thing on. this is a really good idea everyone 2 have 2 psp’s

Comment by gyjunior
2008-06-30 07:07:03

CXMB do work, @ least the new CXMB file is already out… now we just have 2 wait for a converter, or some 4.01 themes! But they will come in a few days 4 sure!

I recently updated to OFW 4.01. the heck!? i can’t upgrade to CFW 4.01-m33

I tried to downgrade via pandora but creating pandora won’t even work. the same error message “This game could not be played ” with some digits that starts with 8000XXXXX

i am so frustrated. I have once downgraded with pandora but i can’t, now.

please help? is the OFW 4.01 blocking all these homebrew apps?

2008-07-07 07:53:09

ok, so this only means that I need to buy another battery that is in service mode or have to borrow a psp with CFW to make a pandora battery …just to revert my pso back to CFW… i hate when sh!t like this happens.

Hi everyone. I can’t update to this from 3.93 m33-3. It shows Psp screen and then freezes and after awhile shuts down my psp. Does anyone know if this is normal or I have a wrong setting in recovery?

same problem with the 92% error. It will actually load to about 84% then the memstick light will stop blinking, following by the % slowly creeping up to 92% where I get the error and have to unbrick the psp.

Fat psp as well. At least im glad to know im not the only one with this problem :/ Still waiting for a fix

Comment by G
2008-07-13 00:39:12

I even tried going from 1.5 to 3.52 m33-3 to 4.01 m33. Still freezing with the “update failed contact technical support” message at 92%. We may need to wait for Despertar del Cementerio 6 to update. Anyone have any suggestions?

ProD1952,

Dose your PSP have a broken UMD drive? Mine dose and I think this might be whats preventing the update.
