PSP Firmware 5.50 Released
greg | April 21, 2009
It’s out — Sony has officially released PSP firmware update version 5.50.
PSP Firmware 5.50 changes:
- [Information Board] has been added as a feature under [PlayStation®Network]. You can view the latest news from PlayStation®Network.
- Support for a Web security service provided by Trend Micro™ has been added to [Internet Browser].
- An icon for [Internet Search] has been added to the menu bar in [Internet Browser].
- In the options menu for a game under [Game], you can now perform an Internet search using the name of the game as the search keyword.
- You can now view one more folder level under [Photo], [Music] and [Video].
And this should come as no surprise; Sony failed to mention they’ve patched the TIFF vulnerability rendering the recent exploit useless. Go figure.
So should you upgrade? The choice is yours. I mean, if you have a hacked PSP-1000 or 2000 with a working Pandora Battery, then why not check it out. Otherwise, I recommend you steer clear until the new Homebrew Enabler (HEN) is available.

Boo Hiss……
Thanks Sony for making this update.
5.50 M33-1 should be coming out within the next 2-3 days lol. I’ll be ready to update
I ♥ my PSP 2000 Slim =]
Music, Internet, Homebrew, GPS, Videos, Pictures, I take this sucker everywhere I go
LOL it’s also funny how Sony takes forever to post this update on psp.playstation.com
I just checked 4/21/2009 2:11 pm and it’s not even on there yet
Wimp. I have a psp 3000
hopely their a M33 update but i think dark alex gone quiet for a bit if not i hpe their a different custom firware but nothin companes to the dax firware
wat is TIFF? and wtf so great about 3000?
your such a loser yaya………..hahahahahaa
NO TIFF SUPPORT!!!! Why those jackasses
xD haha! i love to see you in pain it is so fun ;p
Like i care i have a 2000 so when 5.50 M33 is out Bam! i’m going to upgrade
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! All my precious walls in TIFF… Lost… Forever… FUCK YOU SONY WITH THIS UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway I am pretty sure DAX is working on 5.50 M33 and restoring Tiff support (along with other surprises…). :)
Just convert them to PNG. Sheesh. Or just don’t update.
I can’t because they’re more than 100 and doing that could take weeks.
Photoshop has a batch editing mode.
why don’t you just use a batch converter, unless your computer’s powered by hamsters.
I don’t have photoshop. :(
IrfanView does it too but it’s not as user-friendly…
If I’m not mistaken, they didn’t remove TIFF support completely, they just removed support for “malformed” TIFF images.
Who’d've thought that they’d do that :(
loool sony like to try lol
Now we just play the waiting game for DAX to do his thing
might try it out of curosity, but i wont get it on crw till awhile after DAX releases it… themes will need converted…
your a genious!
you have to downgrade to ofw first before u try testing it now
dont waste your time lol
AH-HAHAHAHAHA
fucking Sony dude.
Still nothing surprising at this PATCH
O well…. time to find another new HEN exploit
boring ass internet seach options, updates on psn blah blah am i the only one who really doesnt give a monkeys about this kinda functionality? the extra level in audio and video etc is nice like, but goddamn i never use the network feature.
Yup. This is pretty much entirely useless. I was hoping folders would’ve been added to the game section, but since not, I too don’t give a monkey’s ass about this update. And EVEN IF Dark Alex releases 5.50 M33, I’m not going to update because of CXMB support. I don’t want to lose my themes so soon lol.
Woohoo! I am so convinced now that Sony rocks that I am going to purchase TrendMicro and fully secure my PSP 100% from all hackers and trojans out there. Now that Sony finally listened to what the people want AND need, its time to party like its 1999!!!
Yes with all those 10000000000 PSP trojans ‘n such… C’mon there’s only one know to work on PSP!
I knooooooow…it scares me EVERY day to think that MY PSP is at risk. Woah!!! Sony was on top of things like always.
Seriously, these morons in R&D really need to get some real programs and options available to users such as instant messaging, downloadable homebrew certified from Sony, throw in some themes or options to change the layout of the PSP’s menu. Something instead of garbage.
Sony’s atempt at covering there mistake with a lackluster update. =/
Before i update to any new cf Il wait and see if how it goes
I really like the ability to have more folders, but I think I’m with everyone saying that they wish there could be folders in the GAME section.
I really doubt that Sony will… because if you don’t have a hacked PSP the only thing that should be in there are games.
I know there is a plugin for the vsh menu for games, and it works wonders, but ya know, actual folders would be nice.
I’m not sure how games get put on the psp from the PSN but having the ability to seperate ps1 games into catagories by genre would be useful.
WHATS WITH THE SECURITY SHIT BY TREND MICRO
TIFF? I didn’t even know there was such thing :)
JUST GO TO http://WWW.HAXORMYPSPFOR$99999DOLLARS!!!.COM
Just pay $99999 dollars and you’re psp can be haxed… ROFL
hey DUDE
I think the Tiff that had been remove in this firmware is such easy someone just make a CFW and then add on the update or patched the Tiff compatibility on the photo and finished, and that it..
don’t worry guys i’ll make the 5.50 m33 soon….
Go ‘REAL’ Dark Alex!
don’t impersonate dax as dax moron, hacking fw require alot of time, will just Cross d bridge when we get there.
yeah fuck you fake loser dumb bitch ass.
eat poop and die you fat ass “DAX impersonating” bitch. FUCKER.
cool
I just updated to 5.50 OFW.
And i must say most of all.
The ‘information board’ sucked hell!
I thought it would be like PS3!
BUT PSPs’ functions JUST LIKE RSS!! OMG!
GAHH! Useless update.
Went back to 5.00 M33 =D
I’ll stick to that for now.
Unless something better comes out.
y all my games gone and could not be started?
anyway can giv me the link for downgrading to 5.00?
That sucks big time.
lol. U can only be saved if ur PSP is
the 1000 / 2000(maybe) model.
If it’s PSP-1000 u can be saved.
If it’s PSP-2000 then maybe.
If it’s PSP-3000 go and play Barbie.
Appreciate sony`s tries…Naaah!!!
Apparenlt the encryption tables have changed so psardumper doesnt currently work. We’ll have to wait for a new version before expecting new m33 firmwares
Ur right amrish. I tried dumping the firmware and it didnt work.
how do we know ur the real dax?, even i can say im dax as easy as anyone else can.
Do you know im russian?if so, theres your proof.
Dax is spanish you wab lol
Noooooooo! Aaaaaah!!!
what does this mean can i still hack the psp for the 1 time on 5.50 with the pandora battery and the magic memory stick
my psp is the oldest one psp-1000
got it around 4 months after the psp was anounced
i got my psp-1000 on June 7th 2005. :)
Nonsense update. Just an additional space because of the antivirus software. It sucks me a lot.
Nonsense update but i think sony have now made their updates unhackable
How much longer will it take for 5.50 m33 to come out?
yeah, when?
We’ll get an update from DAX if and when he has the right tools, information, will and free time to do it. Let him take his girlfriend/wife to the movies or dinner or something.
Why do people want a new cfw?? there wasnt anything good enough in 5.50 to actually want a new cfw update.
just wait for 5.50 m33 and don’t upgrade ur psp recklessly because if u don’t have pandora battery, u can’t downgrade it anymore
I can’t access the site of dax. Is he releasing a 5.50 M33?
Hi i am new to this i downloaded this crappy ver 5.50 & now cannot play any games which i have downloaded from internet. how do i downgrade to workbale version & when is it possible to get a M33 for this version. plz help. i dont have pandora battery or MMS
FINALLY!! Can Organise my Music and Videos better! It better be in a ps3 update too!
There is a problem people. The PSPBTCNF files have been patched so plugin 2 Flash now doesnt work. POPS files have also been patched as well, so the files only detect legitimately purchased games. Its going to take a lot of time to customize 5.50.
Note to Pat: Its wife :)
ROFL. I don’t know whether to believe this or not.
Why dosn’t sony let us have a ‘hacked’ psp? I know idd still buy there games.
becuase more than half of hacked psp owners pirate, and sonys to stingy to let a loss slide by
i have psp 1000 and i updated it with this, but why i can’t play downloaded game??
tell me how to downgrade it
uhhmmm guys why cant i see my games in my psp(fat)Iso ????? nid answers
omg how can you guy be so oblivous to iso being cfw only
hi, i would like to check if custom firmware 5.50m33 were released, could it update/overwrite my current official firmware 5.50? thanks. :)
Still waiting for M33…….keep waiting……stupid sony
its no need to buy psp 3000..its useless…. rather buy ps3
hehehe i had 3.71 m33
and a 5.00m33-6 update in my game folder
i used the sony update through the psp and after i installed it my U235.prx(5.00 modder) was corrupted

don’t update to firmware 5.50, you won’t be able to play downloaded games from the memory stick.
