PSP Firmware 6.00 Released
greg | September 10, 2009
Update: Cool… A video showcasing 6.00 courtesy of WEED LOVER:
Update: Hrm… Even Lempel doesn’t mention any of the PSP GO features on his latest PlayStation Blog post. Why’s that?
Update: All right; first impressions… Nothing overly exciting… Plenty of new theme colours… Big whoop. 6.00!? C’mon… More like 5.56 or something. I’m more interested in the PSPgo and the Bluetooth Internet dealio. The change log posted below is spot-on with exception of the PSP GO specifics; I can’t confirm that until October. Anyway, let me reiterate:
PSP Firmware 6.00:
- PlayStation Store Games can now be grouped and displayed in folders based on their expire date under [GAME]
- Importing of playlists from the Media GO! applications is now supported under Music
- Under [Settings] > [Network Update] has been changed to [System Update]
- The number of Colors that can be selected under [Settings] > [Theme Settings] has been increased
- The PSP GO! system can now connect to the Internet via a Bluetooth modem such as a mobile phone
And furthermore…
- Revisions to strengthen security has been added. (Internet Browser)
Anyone spot anything that went unmentioned?
Now to Pandora myself back to 5.50 GEN.
It’s out — Get PSP Firmware 6.00 now via Network/System Update or download it below. More to come… Updating…

FRIST MY NINJAS.
Ill post vid herin a few secs.
its a ok update new colors =D
Dude i was wondering ru sure they r going to make a hack for 6.00 cause i need to hack my psp with somekind of CFW instead of using these shity OFW
Shit load of colors added. Now that deserves a .00 update woot!
-Sony
Hopefully this will be followed by CFW soon
no real need 4 a new cfw the psn still works…idk who the hell uses that…not saying the psn is bad just there prices….which dont effect me…anyway yea no need 4 a cfw
No, 6.00 CFW is a MUST. All of the new games coming out require 5.55 and soon will no doubt require 6.00. 5.50 GEN-B cannot run games that need 5.55 no matter what. PSN is not the only thing.
I WAAAAAAAANT SOOOOOOOOOOOOO BAD 6.00 M33!!!!!!!!!!!!
5.00 M33-6 runs 5.55 games just fine. There’s no issue until games start requiring 6.00, which wont be for a good few weeks at the very earliest.
5.00 m33-6 doesn’t run 5.55 games. Don’t know what yer smokin but hand it around for all to get high like you.
You can use the version.txt trick to play some 5.55 games, notably FF:Dissidia. However, games that actually require some information you can only get from the update will not work, notably (and tragically) Disgaea 2.
but there is no multiplayer over the web with 5.00 m33 so if you like resistence m33 sucks right now
what?????…… i play dissidia eng on gen-b without even accessing the recovery menu. just like any other game i can even play soulcalibur with the boot.ini option
hey guys..
I got CFWenabler 3.60 for firmware 5.03 on a psp 2004 8C…
I can play dissidia alright… but i downloaded SoulCalibur, MotorStorm and Dirt2, and none of them worked… is it cause of this stupid new firmware? if it is…6.00 sucks big time!
I got the game NFS Shift and at first it was not working, what I did was I was playing SC4 before and in order to play that game i had to enable boot.ini in the advaced settings I am using 5.50 Gen-B….but in this game you have to disable that option and that’s it, I am running that game just fine
maybe MM3 or gen out of?
しょぼくね?(^ω^;)
Thats pretty much all that is new in this update.
I just the new colors that’s pretty much all.
Here is a video showing some of the new things in 6.00.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsANtTHV-XI
Well if the only big thing that is updated are color backgrouds I highly doubt that a new M33 will be released. Best wishes, and i’m hopping just like all of you a new CFW will be anounced by either of the big players or someone new.
Yeah but wee dont have 5.50 m33 eitherre, I NEED IT URGENTLTYD AX!
We’ll have to have one in order to play grand theft auto so I hope like hell one is released..
We mainly need a new CFW because all the new games are requiring 5.55
Yup we are going to need a new CFW or some way to bypass that check. If they do make a new CFW it would probably be this 6.00 update.
is the new colors apply to PSP1000?
no i dont think so. but you can check if you get the colors though.=)
System Settings psp icon has changed to one styled more like the Go.
It shows up as Alexeon
when is that 5.55 cfw coming? All the games that are coming out all require 5.55/6.00 ofw ex: soul calibur, motorstorm arctic edge, disgaea 2, diRT 2, nfs shift, mua 2, persona, gran turismo, gta chinatown wars, svr 2010, fifa 10, assassin’s creed bloodlines, tekken 6, dante’s inferno, echoshift.. wow thats a lot :o
We reeeeeeeeally need a new CFW!!! Good games are out and more to come. Currently unplayable 5.55 games: Armored core 3 portable, Tales Of Vs., Evangelion Battle Orchestra, Disgaea 2, Soul Caliber BD (Viciously hacked after release successfully) And more to come. I guess it takes a newer unhackable psp to make them try harder with the games.
andddd… it doesn’t look like an M33 CFW will be made:
http://sceners.org/?itemid=451#nucleus_cf
(sigh) new games that requires ofw costs too much
Yay 6.00 OFW in EBOOT form…
Waiting for 6.00 M33 or 6.00 GEN
Come on coders!
So basically this ofw doesn’t let us play .iso or .cso games? Because I want to play now but all of my homebrews don’t work and my iso games aren’t displayed too…
–sorry, I’m new here and just feeling things up
LOL!
OMFG, thats the most dumbass question ive ever read anyone ask here so far. Of course sony is going to include umd image support in their new firmware.
DDDDDUUUUUUHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO UMD ISO SUPPORT IN OFFICIAL FIRMWARE.
My thoughts, “This only my thoughts”
First of all i’d like to say thnx to DA for the CFW that was done. As for the CFW that might be. That’s a different story.
I’d like to just express this only on spectulation. If I’m wrong say so. Cause I know you will. Does DA have his Head so far up his ass he can’t see the light?
You might ask why I said that?
Why?
OK, it just seems to me that DA is just using an excuse like. Oh, I aint gonna release a new CFW cause sony aint did anything to deserve it. Or is it that he’s still steaming and got biatch slapped like a red headed step child? So what someone tossed out your work. OLD NEWS, OLD STUFF. PPL like your stuff. Not a knock off. If his head is so far up his arse that he can’t see that. Then let him fade away. So be it. It’s not like he’s the only biatch around that can do things to the PSP. So GEN is working off your work. So what. You defaced sony’s work to begin with. Besides, you started somewhere too. Who’s help did you have?
Some ppl put some ppl so far up on a pedestal it’s hard to get down. DA got shot down. Question is, can he get back up and walk again.
obvious troll is obvious
your right, he’s not the only one, but he’s the best at it. so, for all our sakes, lets hope he can get back up.
How did you manage to Pandora yourself back to 5.50 from 6.00 FW?
I have a PSP Slim…
Pandora works no matter what firmware you have…as long as your on a 1k or 2k
guys, what the different about CFW and OFW? -sorry iam newbie
CFW: Custom Firmware
OFW: Official Firmware
IMO Dark Alex should release a 6.00 M33
x2…cedc
For those who UPDATED and want to go back with pandora and the firmware FREZES on M33 or GEN with Pandora… Just use pandora and install 5.00 OFW then after that Install 5.00M33-6. (OR 5.50 GEN)
What the hell ever happened to the M33 custom firmwares? Why did they stop after 5.00? And what happened to Dark Alex? Does anyone know?
Thanks…
DaX hasn’t released any updates since 5.00m33 because there hasn’t been any major firmware updates.
He’ll probably come out with 6.00m33 in a week or so.
i doubt it
Alek said on PSP Wiki that there are no plans for 6.00 M33.
So 6.00 M33 is doubtful.
Gen is our only possible hope for good CFW for now.
Dark_AleX has moved on to better things since he hasn’t released anything. Let the man enjoy life instead of being stuck at his computer pleasing software pirates and others.
DAX is the man he owes us nothig we owe him all m33 fw along with the rest of the m33 team all I know is all the m33 fw have been out of this world. I say take your time team m33 because wen you do release a new CFW it’s going to be awsome
If you want DAX to continue , why dont u donate to him instead of keeping crying… Everybody that do that is a leecher. Why dont u try to help instead of asking? The best thing to do is wait to see results. DAX is not the only one… There is GEN, MHU and others who try to do the same work. The best god made was a Day after another one. Patience is the best Key.
honestly, i would donate like 30-40$ if he were to just say “hey, i’m thinkin about making a 6.00m33, some extra funding for my time would be nice.” i’m kinda new to the psp scene or i would have donated in past if it were something i used, its a worth while cause to donate, dude desurves it for all the time he has put in.
if i honestly thought he was going to make a new CFW, yeah, donations would happen.
but i kinda think hes just done.
Please let there be cfw for 6.00, I want to play the new games I brought from PSN and still use my homebrew apps. M33 or GEN, it does not matter!
updates sucks!!! for psp the best its the update you can hack!!!
here is it!! ( 1stTimeKnot.mpg.html ) 6.00 m33!!!
Dude, Dark Alex has no plans for 6.00 M33 this update first off didn’t deserve a X.00 number and it definitely doesn’t deserve to be hacked there was not many changes to the OFW.
I reckon that Sony is doing this on purpose releasing small updates so people like Dark Alex or the Gen team don’t bother updating there CFW’s it makes perfect sense to me, that’s what i would do, only some extra colours & more security, not worth releasing a new CFW for, see Sony will win in the end sadly hence why they are using this type of updated firmwares.
Same thing is now happening with the DSi consoles, eventually Nintendo will win that battle as well with Flash Cards R4/M3 Etc
if the new colors arnt for the PSP1000 model thats really shit of you sony. i want a black theme without having to risk bricking it.
If you do right then there should be no reason to brick your PSP.
there were reports of themes bricking the psp in the past so im not going to bother risking it. also dont what to have to keep changing themes every time i update the cfw so ive stuck to a black background.
There’s really not much you can do with 32mb NAND in a fatty. Tested 6.00JAP. Sorry no extra color themes. A download timer display was added. The video looks brighter on the PS1001. WiFi connect speed also improved on the old brick. No PSAR dump yet,but GEN looks like they are working on it. Hang in there for another week.
why the games don’t work ? x( … There is a chance to change the firmware back to 5.00 ? ? plz help !1
yup there is you can find it here on this website.
f(^_^;)
Hey guys who can explain me how can I come back from 6.00 to 5.50 without the pandora battery?
You don’t.
frankfurter sandwich
hey guys so the iso games can be played in the 6.00 GEN\M 33 … someone said that ALEX is releasing the 6.00 GEN in a week is it true…
No.
i asked about it too no one responded -.-
DAX is the man and he is right not to release a new CFW for this crap the truth is he probably doesnt care about the new games or the new colors he just likes the challenge of unloking the OFW new features under CFW but since sony hasent made any new drasticc changes theres no need beside most of the games sony makes for PSP are a bit crapy, i personaly only have a handfull of games that i found to be worth while like GOW chains of olympus and MGS portable ops and Tekken thats honestly about half of all the games i have bought so as for me i say let DAX take his time wait for a good sony update and im sure we’ll se DAX again and the CFW will be awsome
WTF? what are you takling about dude??!!
Dirt 2 is out , Motorstorm is out, Tekken 6 is come Grand turizmo, NFS shift and etc. etc. Why all of you m33 users not can take the true thing with this DAX, he not longer due CTF anymore or all of you like the easyest way – to be him sekretare and speack shit like” DAX is take rest bla bla bla, DAX is wait chalange bla bla, DAX is sick and wait to qure himself bla bla bla” all of you out there who speack in name of DAX out there look like a blond stupid women in some cheap movie who sid in the ofice and answer the phones and say ”may boss is not in the ofice can i take you message to him” dont be the blond sekretare , be you self!!!
psp rules! my sons and i all have one. they have the phat, and i have the slim. both models rock! the psp is the ultimate portable digital entertainment device. movies, games, music, photos. my youngest son even has the go-cam which takes movies and pictures. currently waiting a clear case mod from china for my youngest son. i know he’s going to love it. the quality time i spend with my kids playing multiplayer, you cant put a price on that. Thank you Sony for such an amazing device, and thank you psp scene for the awesome cfw and homebrew!
Dont you have more to do then post retarded shit on the internet?
yer an asshole maverick.
Seems you just love to troll.
how i can play ISO on my psp?
Educate yourself by looking it up on google.
I’m gonna quote the Debian Linux crowd on this one, “Read the Fucking Manual.” In other words Google it.
EERRmmm i think there will be no other Custom firmware tbh lol :P i think its finally at its end even though we would like some more…. unfortunatly sony doesn’t want it and they’ll proper;y get their way in the end
i’m not fussed i used to use custom firmware all the time for ps1 and geisis classics lol i’m not fussed now though lol though my umd drives broken so i need to buy a new one (when i can be arseD) lol so i think people should forget about any new custom firmware from DAX or GEN lol
its been a fun ride though :D
Most interesting is that wireless bluetooth support for the PSPGO! Can’t wait to sync the Go to my blackberry and have online play wherever the hell I am. :D
Guys my psp firmware is 5.50-GEN B im planning to update it as 6.00, anyone have already try the 6.00? are the ISO games working?
Hey guys the game does work on gen 5.50-B I am using a phat psp
Are the ISO Games saved on the memory stick will work when i update my PSP into 6.00?
bitchin….
WTF…….no support on the colors for the psp 1000
(really want to update the colors on my phat without bricking it)
so…. Sony’s saying a slight good bye to the 1000 already???
no, if you update to 6.00 you wont be able to play iso’s or homebrew.
lol… wow, i see a lot of retarded comment & s2pid questions! what a bunch of IDIOT!!! don’t post useless crap noobz!
supp ppplee!!
man this is shit…where is Dark Alex??? i have 5.00m33-4 and m downloading shift and motor storm bt they aint wroking…where is 6.00 m33 ppeeepsss!!
dude whay don’t you have 5.00 m33-6 already its been out forever your still behind but, yes i want 6.0 m33 also
well, nfs shift works on 5.50 gen-b2, but that was a leaked version i got like on the 14th. as for a new cfw, i’ve given up on DAX. sure he has done a lot, but like even 5.55 OFW didnt rattle him, so no hope there. im finding the GEN CFW to be pretty good, and they made a 5.50 when DAX didn’t. they’ve already decrypted 6.00 so give it some time. hopefully by the time GT and GTA Chinatown rolls around there will be 6.00 CFW. just a side note, has anyone seen the 6.00 MAC-B CFW. do you think its legit? there is a lot of flaws in the video, and their latest vid explaining that stuff doesnt even explain, it just takes the question, and gives us a reworded question in the answer. so do u think its real?
ps im on a vader slim!! :D
freeplay posted a video disproving team mac’s CFW wich sucks because its things like this that realy hurt the community rather than help.
by chanting fake they may have destroyed team mac’s will to realy try and make a CFW thats probably why DAX wont make CFW because people talk a lot of caca all the time and he got tired if SONY who knows maybe dax has made every single FW into a CFW but for himself not for ungratfull assholes like ALL of US and yes i include myself because i dont know how to program if i did I would totlay contribute but if we stop saying FAKE and start saying hey i got an idea you can use we will se a huge take off in CFW and not only that but maybe actual mods example has anyone ever tried to swap out the 32mb nand and replace it with like a 1gb!!! that would be insane see i just gave a massive idea and im not asking for credit i just like to help. LONG LIVE M33, GEN, and all the hackers and CFW.
hmmm..
maybe DAX was bought by sony so that team m33 wont release new cfw?
anyone else so?
Where is DivX? Is Sony retarded?
psp is useless for gaming without cfw……….ofw cant run games from memory stick.we cant just buy buy buy umd’s :( plz make it hackable 6.00 or downgradeable directly
How do you get pandora to work on 6.00. It wont work on my mine. Shouldnt have upgraded.
just press the key you chosed whem making the pandora before put the battery ( must have the memory stick inside the psp first ) and it will work. I have already installed OFW 6.00 and put my pandora and worked, my key is up at the left directional buttons, now im 5.50 gen b-2 again and i can use pandora to go 5.00 m33-4. good luck
Do u guys having prob with latest games? . .clueless? Ha3x . I dont think that latest cfw the only a cure to play soul calibur . I just got firmware 5.00 m33-6 n a homebrew called savestate n its make my psp just fine to play that kratos bunch a guest game . its work just fine . Trust me .
I forgot about some thing . dont forget to use version.txt to spoof your psp firmware version . n i make it 6.00 . .and all the game n demos boot well :)
