FATMS HAX MOD for 5.50 GEN-D2 R2 Released; Memory Stick Speed Up Hack

greg | November 29, 2009

Dashhacks Seal of ApprovalUpdate: It is what it is… I dug up my PSP-1000, loaded 5.50 GEN-D2, ran the installer for this fatmsmod hack job, and yeah — memory stick access is faster. I’m slapping the Dashhacks Seal of Approval on this one — FATMS HAX MOD by nOspoonX. Try it.


I know some of you have been asking for this… So here it is — the memory stick speedup hack for 5.50 GEN-D2. You may better know it as 3.71 fatmsmod. This release is for PSP-1000 only. But the good news doesn’t end there… Mr. Shizzy confirms that Dark_AleX’s 3.71 fatmsmod for 5.00 M33 works on the PSP-2000 too.

Now with something like this you gotta be on your best and ensure you backup flash0, you have your pandora battery nearby, and you’re ready to restore your PSP incase shit blows up. I’m gonna try it out. I’ll let you know how it goes…

    mine is phat but no pandora here.better wait for good or bad news before trying it. hope it works flawlessly.

    • bonbon says:

      sorry to double post. was using m33 before and i thought m33 has built-in speed-up memory feature.

    • Carlos says:

      THIS IS GREAT PEOPLE NICE SPEED TO IT BETTER PERFORMANCE IN LOADING, I HAVE AN 8GB MEMORY STICK WITH ALOT OF GAMES AND APPS AND THE SPEED IS REALLY TREMENDOUS!!! 5/5

      • rcskate says:

        IT WORKS ON MY SLIM PSP 2001. JUST FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE README AND IT WILL WORK BUT AUTOSTART.PRX DOESNT WORK WITH THIS AT ALL I MEAN GAMES DONT LOAD FROM BOOT UP AND U CANT ACCESS GAMES STRAIGHT FROM THE XMB PLUS GAMES WONT LOAD WITH THE NEW PLUGIN VERSION BUT ONCE I DISABLED THAT PLUGIN I GOT A MASSIVE SPEED BOOST AND ALL MY ISO/CSO’S WORK GOT POPS TO WORK AND EVEN CHANGED MEM STICKS NO PROBLEM.I WOULD ALSO HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT U BACKUP F0 OR HAVE A PANDORAS BATTERY HANDY JUST IN CASE.

        P.S IF U GET THE AUTOSTART.PRX PLUGIN TO WORK PLZ LET ME KNOW HOW CUZ THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLUGINS. BOUT TO TRY AN EARLIER VERSION TO SEE IF IT HAPPENS AS WELL.

  2. Archangel says:

    So… this isn’t like GEN-C is it?

    Hmm… maybe i’ll wait a bit to see how this goes

  3. Sh4d0w says:

    This is really old. I did it once and it screwed up everything. Some ISOs wouldnt work at all, killzone liberation wouldn’t connect to internet, and Motorstorm crashes randomly and wont connect to the internet.

    I would not recommend that anyone use this (at least on a slim…)

  4. TTK says:

    I’m not even going to attempt this…

    • UrssGroove says:

      I installed on my slim and boom! brick.I shall never try stupid things on my psp made by stupid people.It should write in readme file:ONly for PSP-1000,but i guess some people are just stupid.Fxxk you Mr.ShizzyAsXHole!

      • RAHIM_HAKIMI says:

        i am vary sorry to say it but they did write a read me man so dont say it sgain ok

      • robofreak111 says:

        Its youre own fault for trying it out in a slim, If you had been a normal human being and used the FatMSMod corretly then it would not have bricked. So dont critisize others for your own mistake. greg also states to make sure you have a pandora to recover from a brick which you obviouslyly do not have. so stfu.

      • Tacoguy says:

        Did you read the info before even installing the fatms mod? Look closely.

  5. creison says:

    Done !
    Lets test the usb speed :D ;)

  6. Public Enemy #1 says:

    Trying Now! Get back to you guys later.

  7. Jayzen Freeze says:

    Right on been waiting

  8. creison says:

    ALL Working fine !
    Im using FATMS HAX MOD for 5.50 GEN-D2
    (compatible w/ PSP-1000 only).
    Congratz nOspoonX Gr8 JOB!;)

  9. drkdude says:

    the part where greg mention need to backup flash0 and pandora battery ready really stop me from doing this…

    • just call me MR HELPER says:

      lol i know what you mean, i am kinda scared to even touch my flash0 files =]

      no worries tho =]

      Thanks for the post greg, best news in a while for those who have been waiting for a MS speed hack for gen

      well there you have it

      all that end well i guess =]

      THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP GREG, nice timing for th epost too, i think you beat everyone to it, no wonder i like checking back to this site =]

  10. guest says:

    works great .. nice speed increase

  11. MrT says:

    Not worth it for me, I have a 2000 slim and breaking my psp for extra speed is a no no. Maybe someone else will be the ginnie pig. Oh and P.S. I like pie.

  13. conbinboy says:

    Just tested on my phat (Gen-D2). Ran 3 games (Gundam VS Gundam, Macross Ultimate Frontier, GT). Speed is dramatically increased after patch applied. Although not as fast as it was in 5.00 m33 but this is a big improvement. Kudos GJ!! Thanks for your good work!!

  14. applem says:

    yep 100 % working on 5.50 gen d2. inceased speed is quite easy to notice
    by the i used the one compatible w/ 2000 on the 2000
    great work! now hurry up 5.50 gen d3!

  15. erick says:

    if anyone knows how to hack psp 3000 firmware 5.50

  16. Chico says:

    where can i find fatmsmod.prx

  17. applem says:

    get psardumper for 3.71 and 3.71 ofw.put psardumper in ur game on memory card and put the eboot for 3.71 on the root of mem.run
    them search the f0 that was just put on there and u will find fatmsmod.prx

  18. Bran says:

    I cant get Go tube to play with sound now and R:R wont go to career mode it just hangs and shuts the system off, all after instaling this.

  19. Lakrymist says:

    Glad I have my pandora, this shit bricked my PSP. Said it was patched and then hung in black screen with mem indicator flashing. Restarted still had same problem, flashed 1 & reformatted with no change. Had to go old-school on this hoe, revert to m33>GD2 & try again ! Just forewarning for anyone attempting this without a pandora: DON’T DO IT !

  20. RAHIM_HAKIMI says:

    guys i need a lil help plzz can i use the ( FATMS HAX MOD for 5.50 GEN-D2 R2 ) in my psp 1001,,

  21. gee says:

    This is pretty old already.

    I have it on my psp 2001 and it works fine, it’s not as good as 5.00 m33 speed, but it’s still faster than normal.

    I still recommend a backup just in case.

  22. XIYL says:

    Just tested on my slim, as I keep my pandora battery in it, and I do not recommend installing it. I’m not sure if its because I use game categories but after installing every iso I have on there showed up as corrupted. If you like your psp working properly don’t do it.

  23. psp says:

    the patch attached, make MP3 playback shutters, game categories plugin conflict with this patch. it shows the game as corrupted, though loading of homebrew has significant speed improvements.

    looking forward for another release :) nice try

  24. doning says:

    1 – You won’t be able to play games unless you add the line “flash0:/….”, which is automatically added on first install. But the problem is that you won’t be able to play it on an another memorystick, which doesn’t contain that line in game.txt (since the installer was ran on the other MS). That is very important.

    2 – Not much of a speed increase.

    3 – All of the new games worked on it except SVR2009 (which was working before installing the patch).

    4 – I was obliged to reflash 5.50 GEN-D2 to play SVR2009, even though I uninstalled the program.

  25. dimy93 says:

    Its not sth that impressed me
    will be good if they add 5.00 m33-6 speed up not the fatsmode
    I’m using fatsmode ever since I installed D2-It’s not much of improvement -I really want the m33-6 speed up

  26. Nicholas Smith says:

    Works perfectly for me, noticeable speed increase on some games

  27. Hardnnn says:

    after i run the programme wth fatmsmod.prx in memmory stick root it returned to psp xmb menu…i went to the recovery n check everyting there but there was nothing abt speeding up MS blah blah…is this normal?im on psp 2000 gen D-2

  28. giooo says:

    thnx :) works great :)

  29. Taki says:

    Bullshit!

    WHAT IS IT?:
    This is a workaround to use the FATMS371 speedup hack with 5.50-GEND2.
    This is a hack, nothing more. I did not write these prx modules I simply came up with a way
    to make FATMS371 coexsist with the decryption components of 5.50 GEN_D2 which until now
    was not possable.

    !!! I did not write these prx modules!!!!
    WTF??? Oh where is the DAX to make one for GEN too. What a moder/hacker is this guy who make this? Can someone tell him create totally new MS speed up ? I thing he don’t know this, when new cores come up new prx and new hacks comes up. When is mod the old ones to the new ones result is this (after i run the programme wth fatmsmod.prx in memmory stick root it returned to psp xmb menu…i went to the recovery n check everyting there but there was nothing abt speeding up MS blah blah…is this normal?im on psp 2000 gen D-2after i run the programme wth fatmsmod.prx in memmory stick root it returned to psp xmb menu…i went to the recovery n check everyting there but there was nothing abt speeding up MS blah blah…is this normal?im on psp 2000 gen D-2 , the part where greg mention need to backup flash0 and pandora battery ready really stop me from doing this…, and etc. etc. )
    Thing it like a aquarium, you have small one and go and buy for it one small debit pump (like 200L/per hour) but few months lather you go and buy the BIG aquarium (like 500L) and if are you just thing to putt the pump who is in the small one in the big one you must know is been useless and you must go and buy the new one , big one like (2000L/per hour) and this is the same with this prx’s cores and files, when new come up new must created . Sorry for the long post but i thing I’m lida bit right ;)

  30. creison says:

    ´´Working“ just fine, speed increase about ´´50% loading the games“ ;)

  31. flamingsoul says:

    Crimson room reversed iso stopped working since I installed it on me phat running 5.50 gen d2

  32. bestyugiman says:

    Okay guys I posted the discussion thread and please read it cuz the conflict between game categories and fatmsmod is normal.It’s not a bug in this one cuz I tested the normal fatmsmod with my PSP came with same results , when in context browser with any fatmsmods most of categories will be just full of corrupted data.and svr 2010 works perfectly with me with this fatmsmod . and this is only for psp 1000 for people who’re complaining that it doesn’t work with psp slim , greg said that it’s only for psp 1000.

  33. nero says:

    is 5.50 gen-d okay with psp 2000 ta-088v3?

    • bestyugiman says:

      no 5.50 gen-d isn’t okay with psp 2000 ta-088v3 it’ll permanently brick it with no fix except sony.
      5.03 GEN-B is ok with psp 2000 ta-088v3 and psp 3000.

  34. Alex says:

    I got 5.50GEN- D2 for my psp 100 and i downloaded the right one and when in installs the program it hets to 100% and goes to a black screen and the memory card light flickers every 3 seconds non-stop. and when i reboot it just just the flicker thing foreva with the black screen and so i cant boot up until i turn it off, i cant get past that. i have to take the memory stick out to get it to load, i have tried reinstalling it many times, whats wrong?

    • bestyugiman says:

      Hello Alex.Try this
      1-Turn on your PSP with no memory sticks inside , then after booting it go to setting system settings and keep the PSP on format memory stick , insert the memory stick then quickly press format memory stick
      2-If the PSP doesn’t even read the memory stick , then in this case you might need to connect it to the pc via a card reader then format it through the PC
      hope that helps

      • Alex says:

        I can start the psp without the memory stick fine and i can format it and shit like normal, its just when i install this program something is mucking it up or it is mucking something up. BTW i tryed formatting it and reinstalling it but same thing happens when i install it, but thankyou for ur efforts and time, its good to see that there are people who do like to help :)

  35. kantutan says:

    bestyugiman,

    I’m on the same boat as bestyugiman, lucky for me i was able to uninstall it without having to recourse on pandora. anyway nice try and hoping for a fix on this though.

  36. kantutan says:

    Taki,

    Stop whining! as if you are paying the modder of this patch, if you can’t wait on this, then create your own.

    • Dark_Alex says:

      Oh Shut Up you Walki~Taki Dumb asshole! complaining your shitty problem is useless, go buy the pump and start pumpin your mother’s hole, complain to her 50ml/hours will ya?

  37. ninjack says:

    So many bugs. This plugin sucks !!! Don’t install it!

    • bestyugiman says:

      ninjack , instead of complaining you have 2 options
      1-Instead of complaining try to help by telling us the bugs you faced to be fixed
      2-If you don’t want to help then make your own plugin and show us how it’d be without bugs

  38. Wuptdo says:

    Perfect, not exactly a huge increase in speed, but better than nothing to be honest with you.

    All my homebrew/isos are still functioning perfectly myself, even game categories, thanks alot nOspoonX.

    • Kantutan says:

      Wuptdo,

      What version of game_categories plugin you are using? mine use the latest version v12, has anyone can confirm this works with recent version of game categories?

      Thanks

      • Wuptdo says:

        Erm yeh im using v12 it all works fine, apart from the installation process.

        Where because the fatmsmod installer doesn’t recognise the cat_xx folder structure, you just have to put it outside it. Just in psp/game etc.

        But other than that im having no issues like corrupted icons, failure to boot games like some of these comments seem to state.

        • Wuptdo says:

          Sorry about that its almost perfect. Just changed game categories settings to ‘context browser’ mode and that greeted me with a few corrupted icons, but i dont use that mode, so im happy.

          However im sure one of the plugins will release an update to fix the matter soon enough.

  39. bestyugiman says:

    This works with v11 and v12 tested by me , but context browser doesn’t work for me with this application for some reason , corrupted data.
    But other modes work fine , I use multiple MS mode and it’s functioning properly

    • PentaMedia says:

      Just saw you comment :P So thats why my iso’s and cso’s didn’t work :P

      Well, then I change the mode to multiple ms :P

  40. DSpider says:

    Dark Alex’s Speed up MS access feature is better than the 3.71 fatmsmod. He even released a benchmark plugin to prove it and for us to test it ourselves.

    I didn’t know that Dark Alex’s fatmsmod didn’t work on the Phat until now. Way to go team GEN… That’s why I’m sticking to 5.00 M33-6 with Speed up MS access activated (at least for now).

    Decrypting the newer games isn’t that hard (5 minutes tops) and I can always get them decrypted from “places” (and by “places” I mean torrent trackers), thank you very much.

    • DSpider says:

      PS: For TA-088v3 and 3000 owners there’s 5.03 MHU which makes use of the Speed up MS access feature (because they used modules from 5.00 M33-6).

  41. Kantutan says:

    I will just change the modes of game_categorie plugin for now, but what I can say it just work as advertise i’m using PhotoFast CR-5400 with 16 Gb of ram. It works now better.

    PSP Phat 1000

  42. PentaMedia says:

    Tried it on my PSP-2004, the “installation” went smooth, no brick or anything, but couldn’t read my iso’s or cso’s :( All the eboots worked well thou.

    Anyone knows about this? Running 5.50 GEN-D2 as everyone should do! I really like that FW :D

  43. Harrihu says:

    Is there a way to alter the speed of the memory? When I am playing multi-player with my brother my games load faster than his and cut out because it takes too long to wait for his to load. It would be great if there was an option for slowing down the memory stick.

    • DSpider says:

      Don’t be stupid. You should make his PSP load faster not yours slower. Anyway. The Speed up MS access feature from 5.00 M33-6 is better than the fatmsmod patch. Think about it. If fatmsmod was perfect why would DAX bother with it ?

  44. PentaMedia says:

    I advice everyone using LUA Player Euphoria to not use this on a 5.50 GEN-D2 on a PSP-200x at least. It made my apps to corrupted data :( Sadly as it increased the loading speed on LBP quite a bit. Otherwise it worked well :)

  45. bestyugiman says:

    @PentaMedia : Make sure you used the one for slims and not the one for phats
    @Harrihu : Why don’t you install the fatmsmod in your bro’s PSP if he has a phat or a hackable slim?

  46. zhao says:

    are there like this mod for gen-b2? im using psp 1000. Don’t wanna change to gen-d2 so that i can redy to change back into 5.00m33-6.

  47. bestyugiman says:

    @zhao : You can downgrade from gen-d2 to 5.00 m33-6 normally via hellcat’s recovery flasher so update to 5.50 GEN-D2 and don’t worry :D

  48. DXS says:

    You shouldn’t give out “seals of approval” to homebrew stuff, remember they do this for FREE and generously decide to share their work with the community. Imagine you were handing out muffins you baked for free to passerby and people were grading you on them.

    • greg says:

      I think you got it twisted… The “seal of approval” signifies that it works and it isn’t something that’ll just brick your PSP.

    • Gabe says:

      But if someone gives you a really good muffin, you compliment them and tell them what a good job they did. If their muffins stink, they get negative feedback, if nothing.

      Alright, Is there any other option for the 3000 other than MHU?

  49. Luciddreamin says:

    Does anyone know if the U3R #2 patch is faster than this?

  50. bestyugiman says:

    U3R is a patch of gen which added the speed up memory stick access from 5.00 m33-6

  51. bestyugiman says:

    I mean that U3R is a mod of gen that adds the 5.00 m33-6 speed up memory stick access to gen-a.It’s combatiple with 5.50 GEN-A , after you install it you can install 5.50 U3R then 5.50 U3R-2.
    here is it
    Changes from 5.50 GEN:
    VSH Menu has SHUTDOWN DEVICE option.
    Recovery Menu has SPEEDUP MS options.
    PSX games may work, but I’m not 100% sure (this means NOT TESTED).
    I guess the recovery menu says U3R recovery menu but it’s in real m33′s recovery menu since it’s red and everything looks just like the m33′s recovery menu.

  52. bestyugiman says:

    Damn forgot to add changes of 5.50 U3R-2 from 5.50 U3R
    Changes from 5.50 U3R:
    Fixed PSX Games – they are now working. (tested on Gran Turismo)
    Fixed exit with O button – now working.
    Added built-in plugins: (only for psp-2000, and still under construction)
    LEDControl 0.2 (not working on my 2000)
    Hold+ 3.7 (working on my 2000)
    MusicPRX 390 (not working on my 2000)

  53. Alex says:

    how much more battery power dose it use up?

  54. Roar says:

    Put this on my old PSP-1000, noticed odd glitches when playing back media files. Ran the uninstall and it bricked the psp…

  55. bestyugiman says:

    People having issues with this : It must be something wrong with YOUR psp , cuz I’m using this and uninstalled and reinstalled it many times with no problems , no brick and everything works fine.greg personally used it and he said it’s working perfectly

  56. Matt says:

    All you guys having problems just use Dark Alex’s original fatmsmod (at least on slim) works fine aside form the curupt icons in Context browser mode in game catoagories decrypts and boots games fine for me and speedup is very noticable at least in GT

    • DSpider says:

      I think the Speed up MS access feature from 5.00 M33-6 is better than the fatmsmod patch. Think about it. If fatmsmod was perfect why would DAX bother with it ?

  57. bestyugiman says:

    Who said fatmsmod was perfect ? I didn’t say that , but it does speed up.We didn’t say it’s better than the new 5.00 m33-6′s one .
    and I may have found a way to add 5.00 m33-6′s speed up to gen-d2 , look in this thread

  58. robofreak111 says:

    NOT COMPATIBLE WITH GAME CATEGORIES MODE!

  59. bestyugiman says:

    not compatible with content browser only , works fine with others

  60. Minato123 says:

    ERM does this work on psp-1006? cuz i dont want to risk getting my psp brick and i dont have a pandora battery Pls Reply THX

  61. bestyugiman says:

    This should work on psp 100X and it shouldn’t brick.
    NOTE : I WON’T BE RESPONSIBLE IF IT ACCIDENTALLY BRICKS!!

  62. Exil says:

    Doesn’t really do much for me.

  63. Exil says:

    MP4 videos are still as laggy when using this.

  64. Kevin says:

    The man have left, but his work is still awesome. Props to the man.

  65. alex says:

    tried it and it wouldn’t work with my plugins enabled and would just go to a black screen when I turned on my PSP. turned them off and it worked again, but my plugins allow me 8 hours battery life so a memory speedup is not worth it, especially when I’ve got m33 on DCv8

  66. qaz says:

    i found something out, go to (on computer) startmenu,accesories,system tools,defragmenter and choose psp drive. it makes faster ms card
