Oh okay.

I'm a little new to this. But I have CFW 3.90 M33-3. I've never ran an update like this so i'm not fully sure what i'm doing. When I download the update from send space it opens with winRAR. Then I see 3 folders and a readme. The folders I see are SDK translate UPDATE, then the read me. I plugged my psp in and enabled USB, then I dragged and dropped UPDATE to F:\PSP\GAME Then the instructions tell me to drag and drop 4.01 M33-2.PBP. I do not see this? Where is it and where do I drag and drop it to?

Thanks for any help.

First of all this is nowhere to be found in the included instructions. You should download the update from the links here, not Sendspace.

Also... as stated in the post, 4.01 M33-2 is an update for 4.01 M33. You can't go directly from 3.90 M33-3 to 4.01 M33-2. You'll need to install 4.01 M33 first, then update to 4.01 M33-2. Hopefully that makes more sense.

I recommend checking out the 4.01 M33 installation guide here: http://forums.exophase.com/showthread.php?t=7669

Is the official 1.50 firmware update have to be on the root of the memory stick, for the 1.5 Kernel Add-on, to install?

Never mind, I found the link to the Installation instructions for the 1.5 Kernel Add-on.

sir with all due respect I was able to Update to CFW 4.01 m33-2 from CFW 3.90 m33-3

ms0:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE

UPDATE folder contains EBOOT.PBP from 4.01 m33-2

update and Sony's OFW renamed to 401.PBP.

i've been waiting for this update for some time..

but verson 4.01 m33-2 does have some minor problems when i upgraded my psp slim.

there were freezing in the xmb, during navigating, and it would shut my psp down. for now i downgraded back to 3.90 m33-3 and wait for the next update.

I'm having no problem with 4.01M33-2.

Maybe it was a bad flash, or you've used a faulty memory stick.

No probs here, popsloader 380v2 works now? Ok, cool.Tested it last night,it worked for every game I have.Is a newer prx coming out though that supports 380,395.etc.?

please can someone take out flah o back up for 4.01m33-2

if i install this update of 4.01m33 will i lose all my data on my memory stick like all my backups and apps ?

do i have to backup my files?

Hello everybody!

I've just finished installing the new firmware 4.01 M33 with the update 2 and Kernel for 4.01 and everything whent just perfectly. But when i formated my 8GB Memory Stick through the PSP i started to detect only 4GB instead of 8GB. Did this happen to anybody else? The Card is original Sony and it was working fine with the 3.90 firmware with latest update. This just happend with this firmware. Please help me. Thank you!

Are you sure it is not a fake memory stick? This usually happens on fake sticks...

Were you able to use the entire 8GB space before upgrading to 4.01 M33?

Hey I think I found a problem. when im playing the PSX version of FFVII it seems to be going a lot slower since i upgraded from 3.90, and im using posloader so maybe theres a problem with that.

Anyone else had this problem?

I had the memory stick mod to fix the lag issues, just upgraded to 4.01m33-2

Do I need to do the mod again or is it still there?

The fatmsmod patch will not work on 4.01 M33, but it seems like Sony has fixed the lag issues in this firmware.

hi

whats the difference between the cxmb themes(which overwrites the flash0 folder) with the CTF theme? are they just the same or the cxmb is a compiled version of CTF. please help. thanks

All CXMB themes are in CTF format. To put it simply, it's basically a packaged version of all the theme files (similar to a ZIP archive).

Using CTF files is safer and easier since you can load themes directly from your memory stick, instead of replacing files on the flash0 - which, if you don't know what you're doing, can cause a brick. Plus, when using CTF files, you can change themes straight from the Theme Settings menu.

yep i know. so i guess its better to use CTF rather than replacing font0 folder huh. as ive tried both methods. anyways. thanks again!!!!

cheers

Yes it's original. I had a fake one before this one but then i talked to the guy who sold me it and he trade it for a Original Sony because half of the games weren't detecting on the PSP. It even says Sony. And before the 4.01 firmware it was working fine detecting all 8GB but now it only detects 4GB on the PSP.

Im playing FFVII to but and have popsloader 3.80 v2 installed. But i dont cannot change discs. It doesnt say anything in my home meny about it. please help

BTW i have CFW 4.01 installed on my slim.

If it helps that is;)

It won't if you didn't make a multidisc eboot,you did right?The option only shows up if you have a multidisc eboot from 371 and up.

I see, but were you able to actually use more than 4GB space on the stick before upgrading?

I would try formatting it on the PC using FAT32.

Yes i was able to use all space before this version. I formated the card on the PC with memory card reader and it's working fine now. It's detecting the 8GB. And after this i tried formating the card directly from the PSP menu and it's still detecting the full 8GB. Maby it was some bug during the update but doesn't matter now. Everything is ok. thank you for the help.

Hi Alex,

thx for your firmware release.

I using 3.81 M33-5 when I not upgrage to 4.01 M33-2,

in the older version, it is available to play DJ Max 1 & 2 normally, but when I upgrade to 4.01 M33-2, it also available to play the game, but I find that the X button and O button is exchange.

is it need other plugin to fix this issue.

look forward for your reply.

O and X can be changed in the "Recovery Menu" -> "Registry Hack"

Hi guys.

Could you tell me one thing?

Does this new firmware have the NO-UMD Driver like 3.90-3 M33?

Can i upgrade it directly from 3.90-3?

I'm kinda n00b on this!

thanks in advance.

And sorry for my english....i'm portuguese...:smile:

@ NickyWave: yes you can update directly from CFW 3.90 m33-3 to CFW 4.01 m33-3.

just copy the UPDATE folder of CFW 4.01 m33-2 to ms0:/PSP/GAME

then download Sony's OFW 4.01 and rename it to 401.pbp and

copy it to ms0:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE

UPDATE folder should contain EBOOT.PBP & 401.PBP

hi im new to this forum and i want to get the best out of my psp phat ive got 4.01 official firmware ive never had cfw but i wont to get it could someone help me out plz :D also does it have a umd driver

@ tyz123: you need a pandora kit to convert your official firmware psp to a custom firmware psp.

here's the guide

http://forums.exophase.com/showthread.php?t=3780

what does the pandora battery do and i dont get it atall them steps say u need custom firmware first b4 the battery and magic mem

and i was watching a video the other day it said u need to cut the battery upen and take a chip off the circuit board lol what should i do first the battery or the mem card hav u got msn

@ tyz123: with Pandora Battery (magic ms & jigkick mode battery) you could upgrade/downgrade your official firmware..

you need a cfw psp: to create pandora battery (soft-mod) no need to open (literally) the battery..

regarding the pin: this is the 2nd route (Hard-Mod) in making pandora battery if you can't source out another cfw psp..

maybe it's more appropriate if you ask this questions in the proper thread -> Here

it says u can skip the battery part and what does this magic memory card do and the tutorial its like bkwards lol also last thing how am i ment to create a magic memory card without cfw psp

@ tyz123: you can skip the battery part if you already have a pandora battery (JigKick Mode Battery)

well i cant do it then cus i dnt no any1 with a cfw psp lool and what does the magic mem card do

@ tyz123: you can do it but it's too risky to open your battery..

basically magic ms is a regular memory stick with a special IPL that enable your pandora battery to load/work

(so you need them both)

Find a friend who has a CFW PSP and is well-known in this to help you.

If not, you have to take your own risk > <

hey guys, I'm new here, and I just brought my PSP from 3.71M33-2 to 4.01M33, after that, I copied the UPDATE folder of the 4.01M33-2 to PSP\GAME , which contain only the EBOOT.PBP file. And on the memory stick on the PSP menu, "there is no games here", what should I do???? and how can I play ISO/CSO games on this CFW 4.01M33-2, do I have to create GAME4XX or what???(after I update 4.01M33, I'm not formatted the memory stick yet cuz I want to save my Magic Memory Stick files)

ok im new to the psp homebrew stuff...

i got a phat psp and i already updated to fw 4.01 on wi fi

i didnt know there were any like custom firewares...

i want the M33

but when i try to do it all i get is error code 80020148

ugh, i cant downgrade and idk wat to do...

am i still able to get a custome firmware?

Make sure you are placing the ISO games in the correct folder (e.g. X:/ISO). If they still fail to show up try formatting your memory stick.

@OptimusPrim: No, not without the help of another person who has CFW. You need a Pandora battery and magic memory stick.

so if i buy a psp slim new right now would i be able to install the custom firmware without installing the older versions first (or would i be able to install the firmware at all?)

Thanks in advance

I have the same problem here, previous i was in 3.90 m33-3 now 4.01 m33-2.

I can only look-up my games after i when to photo/video run it so that the memory stick led flashes then i can look-up my games and load it.

Seems to be a delay or bug, anyone knows how to fix?

EDITED: I reformatted my MS and that fixed the problem.

Hi im new to updating cf too. My friend got me the cw and I didnt know anything about it. I have cf 3.80 M33-5. would i still be able to update here?

Has anyone else noticed that the "Fake Region" for UMD Movies option doesn't seem to work in this release?

I've done a little searching around and found one comment (elsewhere) which confirmed my testing, but nothing about a fix or workaround - I realise UMD movies are probably a little rare, but this is actually for a friend of mine who owns a number of UMD movies (of the wrong region, which is the whole reason I battled to get an M33 FW on his PSP in the first place.. d'oh!).

It isn't exactly a bug - the fake region setting is not for UMD movies, it's only there to activate certain firmware features that display depending upon the region.

Anyways, I don't believe there is a way of bypassing the region protection on UMD movies yet.

how come when I tried installing the 4.01 M33 I only got the black screen... saying

"Unpacking... done.

Please Wait..."

then it just stays like this. I also tried it with the 3.90 CFW but still get the same message. Anyone have any ideas please? I've only updated to 3.52 M33-4 and can't go up any further.

=(

hey folks! like many of the others I am new to this, I updated to the 4.01 when my 3.90 33m started flickering and became very slow to respond, now that its fixed after the update now I can't seem to run my cso files. If I'm not in the right place to ask this kind of question, can I get a like to a good place to start?

Hey guys, CFW novice(not quite a newbie but not even close to intermediate) here, I was wondering if anyone could tell me what I might be doing wrong. I recently updated to the most recent CFW(actually noticed the issue after updating to 3.80) Some games I have may not work correctly. For Example..I have Mortal Kombat Trilogy(PSone) and it runs perfectly on 3.71 m33-4..I've noticed each PSOne games i've gotten has its own little Playstation Emulator..most notably P.O.P.S..However, the game itself(not the psp) freezes after a fight begins on 3.80 and up..but runs fine on 3.71 m33-4..I've had other PSOne games which would run weird too:confused1:..any advice is greatly appreciated

Might be the fatmsprx problem that Sony was btching about.

@ Enis:

you need pandora kit to upgrade to CFW 3.90 m33-3 then update to CFW 4.01 m33-2

Hello folks,

Back in May 2008 I bought a new PSP Slim... off the shelf, original firmware.

Bought a pandora battery

Created a magic mem stick

I loaded CFW 3.71 M33-2

Added an 8GB memory stick.... Everything works great

Now looking to upgrade to CFW 4.01 M33-2

When I originally loaded CFW 3.71 M33-2, I dont believe I got the Dark Alex CFW code... or at least I didnt get it from this website.

I was a TOTAL NOOB at that point (not that Im much better now...). I downloaded something called the "theultimatepandorapack.rar" and I also downloaded soemthing called "the file you need.rar".

Honestly I cant recall which one I used to install the CFW... but after careful planning - I did the updgrad and it worked.

This is my question (and I apologize if its been asked already.. I did a lot of searching and didnt find my answer) :

Im not sure if all of the CFW ultimately comed from Dark Alex or if there are "varieties" out there. If I try to jump from what I have on my PSP now to DARK ALEX CFW 4.01 M33 (and then M33-2) will I run into problems?

I really want to ensure I dont brick this thing... and Im not sure what my next step should be to ensure the current CFW is compatible with an upgrade to Dark Alex CFW 4.01 M33.

Please help.

Thanks folks!

Hi

I would like to ask why my CTF Themes wont work? I just updated my fw to 4.01 M33-2 and also used the latest cxmb plugin(tried both 3.21, and exclusively 4.01) when i use the 3.21, i can only see 1 ctf theme(apollon) and at the same time i can see my other ptf themes, which should not appear since the plugin is already enabled. I cant see my other CTF themes.

Next, is when i used the cxmb plugin which is for 4.01 fw, i can see all my 4.01 CTF themes, but when i tried to apply them 1 by 1 only the wallpaper that comes with the theme appears and not the whole theme. can anyone please help me on this? i already tried all the possible methods, but it still ends up with this.

thanks... :blushing:

i've 4.01 m33-2 on my portable

hi, i need some advice. i just upgraded from 3.90 m33-3 to 4.01 m33-2 and it seems that some of my ripped games are not working. anyone experience that?

Check your UMD mode.

if i flashed my psp's theme when i am having 3.90 m33-3, is it safe to upgrade to 4.01 m33???

yeah, i did. tried changing from m33 driver to sony driver still not working.

@ aryios: try ISO File games

tried. doesn't work :sad:

as long as they are ripped, it doesn't run.

backup everything and format your memory stick.

Try changing the cpu clock and xmb clock to 333Hz (press select form the xmb), that would synchronize the xmb and eliminate the freezing during navigating.

CAN ANY1 ANSWER ME?? PLEEESE!!!:confused1:

Yea it's safe

but your theme will be gone

aww

EDIT by Acerthief: Watch your language man.

it still doesn't work. when i load the game, it will start up and go into the first loading screen and hang there. after a minute or so, it will shut the psp down. dun think it is the umd driver problem.

by the way, thanks for the help

Please- can one of the knowledgable admins reply? Thanks!

You're on 3.71 M33, so you'll be able to upgrade to 4.01 M33 without issue.

I have upgraded my psp to 4.01 m2 but experience some freezing problems with Mortal Kombat Unchained, I tried different iso's, uncompressed, formatted my memory stick but te problem stayed; gameplay freezes at random while the sound continues, when I power off/on the system gameplay continues.

I want to see if this has to do with this firmware so I would like to revert to 3.90m3. How to do it? I have a pandora battery with a magic stick that loads 3.80m5, but that does not some to work anymore because of the 4.x kernel.

I'm pretty sure you can use the Pandora Set to revert.

But still back up your NAND though.

I have recently updated to 4.01 M33-2 and cannot connect to the internet/play infrastructure games but can use remote play and ad hoc games, is there a way to fix infrastructure?

You were right; I forgot to reinsert the battery. After reverting to 3.90 the problem still remained so it's not 4.01 that is causing the problem. It might be a faulty memory stick. I will retest this after I have bought a new one. A good excuse to buy a 8 gb stick:)

After some googling I am wondering if MKU is one of the games that simply don't work well under m33

i downloaded the new firmware and it says "4.01.pbp doesnt exist" i dont know what to do... help me please

just called 1 of my fren about this.. i just brought my psp yesterday, and my firmware is 3.80 M33-5.. n my fren told me tat it may be crash if u dont really know how to upgrade it.. is tat true? cause he gonna charge me for $15 by upgrading for me..

i have a qns, how do u use the subtitle feature?

i tired muxng a .srt to a .mp4 file but i still cant use the subtitle feature..

I'd say he's not such a good friend:) If you use charge your battery all the way up and do your upgrade while your ac adapter is connected, there is not much that can go wrong.

ZOMFG how hard can it be? WOW! some guy here is willing to PAY $15 for 5mins worth of work that involves nothing more than 2 "copy and paste" + 2 "start update" operations.

Hi everyone, I'm need to this PSP mod stuff and I just installed firmware 4.01 M33-2 on my PSP, I'm interested in playing PS1 games on it, RPGs mainly, I'm trying to run FFVII, the game start fine, I can get to the start screen but when I hit the "NEW GAME" button the screen goes blank and nothing after that, I've been reading about this and found on some forums that others were having this problem, but I couldn't find any solution, for what I read I think it's something about the popsloader version, but I'm not quite sure, it would be great if someone could help me.

i tried to download 3.71 M33-3 but then after it starts it goes back home and says "the game could not start (80020148) someone plz reply this is getting really frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you using official firmware? Try go to your system information there check. If it is just showing version 3.XX then u will have to use pandora.

Hi all!

I'm new here but I use Dark Alex custom firmware for a long time now...

I'm having a similar problem... Some PSX games that worked perfectely on the 3.80 and 3.90 custom firware stopped working with the new 4.01M33-2. (Metal Gear Solid is one of them). The other problem that I have is that some of the games have problems with video... the video runs slowly.

Did someone had this problem?

thanks!

TaZOr

hmm ~ I am having the same issue as some other people and wanted to share this with you all

problem:

- after playing x amount (usually between 5 to 15 minutes) suddenly my psp freezes and turns itself off...

tried:

- reformatting my memory stick by psp

- manually changing xmb and game speed to 333/166

- resetting to factory settings

any chance on a fix for this or recommendations?

so I did the whole pandora thingy and reinstalled 4.01 M33-2 and still no go

I changed memory stick to another one and still doesn't work...

So the only thing left is to go back to 3.90 for me I guess...

Can I use vshMenu in game?

If I have 3.71 M33 can I just go and install 4.01 M33, then 4.01 M33-2 as explained on this site, OR should I install the firmwares in a particlar order. Also am I right in thinking that I can simply go to the normal PSP updater it will automaticly do it for me via wifi. OR should I just do it manually i.e. manually download it on my PC and transfer i to my PSP.please help.

@ duderabbitww:

you can just directly update from CFW 3.71 m33 to CFW 4.01 m33-2..

the minimum requirement for CFW 4.01 m33-2 is CFW 3.52 m33

I just got an 8 gig stick and i put about 19 games on it and everytime i try to open the game folder to select a game to play, the psp freezes and shuts off.. Does anyone have a clue whats going on?:confused1:

format the stick and give it another try. the partition might be a bit messed up when you were copying the games in.

I hit select or something, and it keeps looping between 84-99%

once it gets to 99% it goes down to 84%.

The only thing that couldve messed it up was the fact that i hit select.

how do i fix this?

i have recently updated my slim psp from 3.90-2 to 4.01-2 and everything was fine TILL i notice there was a small problem with it.. i've been playing FF crisis core for a while and the problem is, i'd get stuck in certain missions, eg.

you either need to re rip the game or backup everything to PC, format the stick in PSP then, retransfer back to stick.

It's also possible you had a crook firmware install. Reinstall firmware then reset settings.

Be sure CPU is set 333 mhz and march 33 no umd mode

Good Day! I have some friend tell me that the PSP Slim support only 4GB memory.

Is this true?

I do not think that is true, i Have heard that some Homebrew does not appear to function over 4gb of storage if using a 8gb card. far as i know 8gb cards will work fine.

Educate me if not though.........

I've tried many ways to get my old Fat PSP to kick into gear lately and I've finally upgraded to the newst 4.01 m33. However, I'm having trouble enabling ">> 1.50 Kernel addon for 4.01." I would love to know how to make this work since all I get is this fun little message exclaiming that I don't have 150.PBP in the Root file, the only person to mention this was on the first page of this post, any help is appreciated. If there is a guide, believe me I have tryed to look for it.

The 150.PBP is linked in the 1.5 kernel release thread:

http://forums.exophase.com/showthread.php?t=7674

It needs to be placed on the top-level (root) directory of your Memory Stick.

It doesn't work in my PSP Slim 3.95 Version

I'm kind of new to this because a good friend of mine would help me do this, but i decided to learn myself so i can stop bothering him, now what is 1.50 Kernel addon for? i updated to the newest my psp to 4.01 M33-2, do i need 1.50 kernel addon? thanks

The 1.50 Addon will kinda (very loosely) simulate 1.50 it's main use is for using 1.50 based Homebrew.

As slims cannot use 1.50 based anything this is why they do not have it or use it.

If your just playing games it is not needed, if you intend to use the Homebrew then it can be used, but if the Homebrew is using the 3.xx or 4.xx kernel then there's no need.

I have not heard of any sideeffects using it other than the loss of the korean font and the location free player - neither of which i use.

wait, so if i want to play downloaded games, i need 1.5 kernel? thanks january39, much appreciated

i have followed all the instructions correctly and when i open the update on the psp it says The game could not be started. (80020148)

my psp is fat and currently on a clean version 4.01

If you are on 4.01 you mean M33? If you are, open recovery or VSH and select M33 Driver or Sony Np9660.

If you are on OFW the same error will mean the PSP cannot recognise the filetype

No Piracy talk here mate, read the rules please. You do not need the 1.50 addon simply to play games.

Guys... need a little help here. i just upgraded my phat psp to 4.01M33-2. no games can be detected. the only game that the psp detects is nba live 09 but it is unable to laod it. is anybody here experiencing the same problem? thanks a lot.

Hi Guys,

I am newbi here. I just bought a slim PSP with rev 4.05 on it. I want to update to M33 by following instruction above but I do not know if I need a pandoras battery and a magic memory or not? Can someone clarify this for me.

Thanks for helping me in advance.

More and more games showed the same instability; the game freezed while the music did not stop and after a soft power down/power up the game continued until the next freeze. I thought my memory stick was faulty. So I bought a new 16 gig Sony Mark 2. That did not solve te problem. I then replaced my analogue joy stick as that was not working ok, it did not move in one direction or often moved by itself. Tthat solved all my instability problems. I can now enjoy my memory card and can fully recommend it. Mark 2 is really speedy and is quite cheap, I payed 75 euro for a 16 gig stick with feels faster than the sandisk 4gig ultra ii which I bought 2 years ago for the same price.

Yes you need the pandora battery and the magic memory stick...

Do you have a PSP Phat or PSP Slim?

You just said "psp 4.01", and if you want help, please be a little more detailed.

i got custom firmware 3.71 m33-2 and i'm trying to upgrade it to 4.01 m33-2 and doesn't allow me

this message comes up:

unpacking... done

401.pbp doesn't exist

do you want to download it from the internet.

i tried usng my net on my psp and it doesn't connect to my wireless internet

what should i do

Well, download 4.01.PBP

With a computer, not from a PSP though :P

it doesn't work man

i got 4.01 mm and it doesn't work.

It is named 401.PBP? if it is then i would suggest exactly as acethief obtain another 4.01 OFW eboot from a diff source.

If not....

hi, i just wanted to know if there is an available posloader for Custom Firmware 4.01M33-2? thanks

hi, i need help! i was supposed to play re3 on my psp fat but i can't play it, it got stuck on tsony logo. i'm using Custom Firmware 4.01M33-2. is there any popsloader for this version? thanks:biggrin:

I guess you have the popsloader? sounds like it & all the pops?

I am currently playing that, RE3 and i have been using 3.71 pops and so far working great. Only about 1/5 thru the game :)

my psp is 4.01 m33 version. what if i want to download a game wihtout the 1.5 kernel add-on. Can i download a game without the 1.5 kernel add-on? or i really need to download the 1.5 kernel add-on

it is doubtful any game requires the 1.50 add on, that is more for homebrew.

Hi

Every time i am running the update, i am getting the following message:

The game could not be started

(80020148)

Any idea what could be causing this and how can i get round it to update to 4.01 M33-2

Sounds like you might be on ofw, go to Settings>system information via the xmb, what does it say?

It says

System Software: Version 4.01

If you have a PSP 1000 or 2000(slim) you can update to 5.03 and use the chickHEN and then run hellcats recovery flasher. But do not use hellcats recovery flasher if you have a 3k or a TA-088v3
