PSP Custom Firmware 3.60 M33 Released For PSP Slim

Team M33 have released the first-ever custom firmware for the PSP Slim and Lite, 3.60 M33! It includes all custom features from previous M33 releases as well as the standard features from firmware 3.60.

Additionally, it’s important to note that this is FIRST custom firmware based on a 3.XX IPL. This means that older homebrews written specifically for firmware 1.5 will not function correctly. Any application written for the 3.X kernel will work fine however.

We are proud to present the first custom firmware for the PSP Slim, and the first custom firmware
that runs using a 3.XX IPL (3.60)

3.60 M33 for PSP Slim has all the features of 3.52 M33, except the 1.50 kernel support, as
that kernel doesn’t work properly on psp slim (hardware problems, screen problems).
3.60 M33 will load homebrew from GAME, GAME150 and GAME360 directories, but all will be executed
with 3.60 kernel.

This mean that some homebrews done specifically for the 1.50 kernel cannot work on 3.60 M33.
However, the adaptation of code to 2.XX+ kernels is not difficult, and homebrew developers can
port their aplications to work in these firmwares.

Way to go M33 and all contributors. Dayom its tempting to go pick up a slim just for the sake of installing this :)

canadajames says:

2 questions is this just for slim and 2nd if it is how would we install it on one.

x3sphere says:

Only for PSP Slim at this time. Read the readme.en included in the archive, it requires the use of a Pandora's Battery.

We will put up an install guide shortly.

canadajames says:

I thought battery didnt work on slims though or was that just a rumour

x3sphere says:

It's a modified Pandora's Battery, uses different files on the memory stick than the old one.

canadajames says:

Well thats freakin amazing wish I woulda known about that damn now I might have to spend some money on a new psp :(. Also would I then be able to have say.... two mem sticks one for new psp and one for old both with the seperate files but just one battery and be bale to unbrick and everything still ?

TimTiger says:

Way to go M33!!

Hanzo_f19 says:

way to go M33, but i'm going to keep my fat PSP, besides the extra ram, i don't see any reasen to buy one (i don't use any emulatores)

cmarroquin2006 says:

If i don't have a pandora's battery ho do i do?

cmarroquin2006 says:

but i don't have an older psp only the slim

x3sphere says:

Out of luck then, you'll need to find someone who has a regular PSP and can convert the battery and install the necessary files on the memory stick for you.

cmarroquin2006 says:

thanks

Chilly Willy says:

Just installed it! Works like a charm. The only problem right now is weeding out the 1.50 homebrew from the 3.xx homebrew. I am so stoked right now! Homebrew on the new slim... it came quicker than some predicted. Maybe we'll see another resurgence of PSP homebrew now. :D

guy_edwin says:

Are the current GAME ISOs made on 1.50kernel or 3.60 kernel?

For example, will Tales of Eternia ISO work with PSP slim's 3.60cfw?

x3sphere says:

You won't have to worry about Game ISOs, all of them will work on the PSP Slim CFW.

Janglez says:

Will my psx games like Resident Evil 2 run on 3.60 M33? and also will my emulators run like NES,SNES,GEN,GBA and so on?

guy_edwin says:

Thanks bro! Any bugs or so found with the custom firmware yet? :)

x3sphere says:

@Janglez:

PSX games work fine, the same as they did on 3.52 M33. As for emulators, some work, some don't. NES emulator NesterJ works fine, but others like SNESTYL and PSPGenesis will need to be updated. For GBA emulation I've heard the HEN-D version of gpSP works fine.

@guy_edwin: Nah, no bugs, just the homebrew incompatibilities I pointed out above, but that's because 3.60 M33 does not use the 1.5 kernel.

King-Wade says:

soo does this work on the old psp or no?

x3sphere says:

Nope, PSP Slim only.

Sony skipped firmware 3.60 for the regular PSP and now released firmware 3.70 for both regular and slim PSPs.

MenaceInc says:

ok,how would a developer know if their program uses the 1.5 kernal or not?...

i've no idea really which my work uses... :S

booom says:

u mean psp slim cannot make padora battery?? and how about magic stick can i make it with psp slim??

Acerthief says:

You can only convert a phat PSP battery, that's why slim isn't "a good option" to make it. As for the memory stick, it's doesn't matter.

But like I said in the Install Guide thread, you'll need a PSP with custom firmware in order to make them.

booom says:

now it makes me dizzy, ok i can only make pandora battery with fat psp, now i can make magic stick with my slim.. thanks mate.

moose187 says:

hey i made pandora battery and i think its notworking cause i have used the install guide and it didnt even finish the 3.60 m33 update thing , just said error!

No need to post the same thing twice.

Wannabe Hacker says:

I have a slim PSP that I want to hack. I'm going to buy a pandora's battery and a magic memory stick. But when I'm finished updating are the update files still on the magic memory stick? If so how do I delete them?

x3sphere says:

Yes. You can delete them by formatting the memory stick in System Settings (this will delete all files on the stick).

Personally I would keep the files on -- they don't take up much space and if you ever have a need to use the magic memory stick again, then you already have all the files.
