Custom Firmware 5.00 M33-4 Released
greg | December 5, 2008
Beep beep — get out the way and make some room… Special delivery from Dark_AleX: custom firmware 5.00 M33-4.
5.00 M33-4 changes:
- Speed selected for UMD/ISO was not properly locked in some new games that used scePower_EBD177D6 instead of scePowerSetClockFrequency to change speed.
- UMD/ISO speed settings now apply to PSN games too.
- Fixed libupdown.prx connecting to dark-alex.org instead of Sony when npsignin_plugin checks for a new version and M33 update is enabled.
- ISO file descriptor was not closed in driver deletion.
- Added a shutdown command to vshmenu.

i wonder what do i expect?
PEOPLE, I FOUND A BUG!!! i think… lol can someone please try for me in the xmb pressing select and seeing if that menu thing comes up? it dosnt on mine.
has anyone noticed that when you move left and right across the xmb menu such when you go along photos to music to and on… it moves hell slower than normal, it jerks along but it looks hell good.
Hey can I play PS one games in this version? I want to know. If I can’t I won’t put this version. I’m finding a way to play FF7 it needs the latest popsloader. It’s in this version right? but what if it can’t play a PS one version here then it’s useless.. pls answer i wanna know. ASAP. thanks! thanks!
wooot wooot awsome,finally i can play some games from psn store.
:)
AWSOME!!!
works perfect! thnx :)
aw, i can’t go with 5.00 m33-4 :(
im stuck with 5.01
you need 1.50 or 3.52 M33-3 hahaha
No he doesn’t. He just needs a pandora battery and DCv7
Awesome good release d.a.
hey it doesn’t open the vsh menu when pressing select please help me
Eugenelz16: make sure it is enabled in recovery. Mine works fine
it’s working now when i run the 150k installer but sometimes it freezes in vsh menu please fix that in your next update
Make sure the vsh menu is enabled in recovery!
yup
Has anyone tried testing their internet connection in network settings? In my case, it obtains the IP address from the router but it just gets stuck in testing the internet connection. However when I connect to the internet using the browser or Playstation Network everything is fine. This has been the case since 5.00 m33-3 or lower I think.
i still cnt launch demos from psn! 80010013!
NVM, the test just takes longer than usual before. Everything’s fine.
NVM, it just takes longer than usual as before. Everything works fine.
Just wondering….
I’m still on CFW 3.71
I love it,Everything works like a dream.
Now I need to know that all the Emu’s will work on this
(NES,SNES….)
Also, Can I just download the
“Custom Firmware 5.00 M33-4 Update”
And install over my 3.71?
no, you need to update to 5.00m33 first then u can reach 5.00m33-4
Nice, I was just going to request adding a shutdown option in the menu. Guess he read my mind. ;-)
hahahahahaha …… good good … with the shutdown command on vsh menu the life of PSP make more easier … ^^
so with this version, the check for updates icon in psp menu will search dark alex.org for a new m33 update or something?
It has always been that way if you choose to enable that option in the recovery menu.
But anyway my vsh menu does not appear and yes it is enabled in recovery menu….
No clue how to fix it.
updated but vsh menu no shutdown command!
dont worry i fixed my so called BUG, i had a program i cant remember what its called but it lets you put diffrent effects on your psp its called tweak something or some tweak, as soon as i got rid of it its fine, i guess that program causes alot of problems, coz its caused alot for mine on 5.00 m33-4 psp fat.
it has! does anyone know how to play games/demos from PSN? always when im trying to lunch demo i see 80010013 error
Go to Recovery -> Advanced -> Advanced Configuration and turn off Game Plugins
that’s what my problem is too i used the tweak display and the vsh menu would’nt open and freeze but when i deleted that plugin it worked well

Hey that’s what my problem is too i deactivated the tweak display and he vsh menu workwd fine
sorry for double posting
Can anyone tell where can i find a 5.02 decrypter for 5.00 m33-4 because i like the new 01-12_03g.bmp
PLEASE HELP
Yes you can update directly from 3.71m33 to 5.00m33-4
I use 1.50 kernel to play emus, it works fine
Dark Alex, please be your next update is 5.01 M33… please please please :( I had missed so much fun with the other homebrew things that 5.01 OFW can’t run. Stupid stupid stupid, I hope really that there will be a 5.01 m33 update or 5.02 m33.
hey! After i’ve transfer this to my psp phat current ver.5.00 m33-3,my PSP goes black screen..Any idea how?..Is it becuz,it bricks?
Does this custom firmware work on the slim that wasn’t hackable before?
i cant download it to my psp because i have the firmware called 5.01 im waiting for a custom firmware for 5.01
It doesnt matter if he makes cfw 5.01m33.
you still need to find a way to downgrade your psp so you can use any cfw.and dont bother asking how to do it here.use google.
i love the shutdown feature!!
yes ur emus should work, they certainly work for me.
if u want to update, upgrade to 5.00m33 then apply the 5.00m33-4 patch
it’s called tweak display
i saw on sony’s site update 5.02 something is come so anyone checked it out?
It will not come >_> Just downgrade your psp and upgrade to 5.00M33-4
when will you support the laetst psp firmware thanx
it shouldn’t matter. just change the version.txt or something and enable using that in the recovery, it should be by default. If you have official firmware higher than 5.00, or any other official besides 1.50, you need to downgrade or use pandora. no need to update to the newest firmware haha.
i have upgraded and now my psp is not going in Recovery mode when i hold the R key and press power on button.. plz someone help me with this trouble.
i updated to m33-4 and now my recovery menu is not working.. the psp is not going into recovery mode. by holding R key and pressing power button.. plz someone help..
recovery mode not working
Yes it does. Keep the R trigger PRESSED while the PSP is SHUTDOWN (not in sleep mode).
uhhh
Am I supposed to use this with the Kernel from the last 5.00m33?
I don’t see a 150k file to download for this one…???
Does it work on PSP3004???
I cant upgrade to 5.00-M33 or M33-4 even though Im on 4.01-M33,
Keep getting incorrect file when verifing 500.pbp file.
have d/l’d file 3 times and have upgraded another psp with same files?
any ideas anyone?
the fw 5.00 m33-4 is work memory 8g and 16g? help!
Make sure you completely turn off (cold boot, press and hold power switch about 5 seconds or remove battery out and put back) ur psp. One click power switch on (no need to press and hold power switch) and hold R triger. I update both my psp fat and slim, all work fine.
don’t forget to boot into recovery menu
and change game folder from 1.50 kernel to whatever the other kernel is you have.
“Added a shutdown command to vshmenu.”
Hmmm… I wonder why he didn’t add it earlier ? (Like 3.51 M33 for instance.)
Go away noob.
Meant for “Nacho”. Sorry…
my 150k thing doesnt work and .well it works but 150 games like pspr wont work my psp 5.00mm3-4 fat deletes the data after that the eboot.pbp so it wont start and can anyone help me
i upgraded from cfw 3.90m33-3 to this everything works except that all my game saves are shown but i cant load em it says corrupted..any ideas..
My NES Emulator (Nester) and my GBASP emulator both havent worked since I upgraded to the 5.00 M33-x firmwares…everything else works fine…
Anyone else have this problem?
Any possible solutions?
Hi Links,
I upgraded from 3.90 M33-3 and all the emulators still work. The emulators in the folder \PSP\GAME380\ did not appear on my PSP after the upgrade. You need to move everything from the \PSP\GAME380 folder to the \PSP\GAME150\ folder and they will appear back on the PSP. Cheers
i upgraded from cfw 3.90m33-3 and everything worked except my game saves when i start a game and try to load it says data corrupted…do i have to rename them or something,I really dont feel like replaying everything after all ive done…might quit messing with my psp if i cant fix this.
