3.50 OE Development Halted; 3.51 OE Is Born!

Posted by x3sphere at June 30, 2007, 5:35 pm

Mathieulh has confirmed that development on 3.50 OE has been ceased as a result of the recently released PSP Firmware 3.51. Consequently, Dark_AleX has shifted focus to a new version of his 3.x custom firmware series – 3.51 OE.

Don’t worry – this will not push back the update’s release any further, as 3.51 is nearly identical to 3.50, aside from security upgrades that patched up the Lumines exploit. Be patient, folks!

Odd. And I was so sure at least DAX wouldn't have to worry about a 3.51 OE-A since it was the same except for the patched exploit. Oh well, what you gonna do?

Though a new version of Popsloader would be really nice at this point.

x3sphere says:

afaik there is no update to popsloader planned for this release. However, some nice improvements will be making their way into 3.51 OE. :smile:

So DAX stopped working on 3.50 OE and start working on 3.51 OE?
Why?:confused1:
After I've upgraded to 3.51 OE(after released)will I still be able to downgrade again?

x3sphere says:

Because it is the latest firmware. You can always downgrade from OE firmwares.

Thanks for the answers!!:laugh:

When you say nice improvements what do you mean?

x3sphere says:

well before I wasn't supposed to leak the details... but now I can. xD

NO-UMD mode in 3.51 OE will be compatible with every single game, thanks to the perfect ISO loader Sony gave us ;)

King-Wade says:

woww this is really good news:)...so the ISO loader is in 3.50 and 3.51 and it will still be in 3.51 OE-A correct?

roe-ur-boat says:

OMG nice one DAX. Silly Sony xD. Thats good then. I can sell all of my games now :biggrin:

Darkchild says:

O.O!! :D:D:D No-UMD will be workin'? :D:D yay! now I can sell all me UMD's Too! :D

x3sphere says:

well I don't see why you'd sell your UMDs o_O

but this feature is big news since there's a quite a few people out there that have broken UMD drives, and are unable to play most games right now. Also, people won't have to mess around with their OE config anymore to get games working xD

Is this going to happen now since DA has left the scene?? Is someone else going to take the reigns??
