HAHA, skipped 4.00 and went onto 4.01 right away

GOOD JOB DARK ALEX!!!

Alex U have done a great job by dominating sony. can u please give divx or xvid codecs

BTW, if anyone is wondering, a 4.01 M33 specific 1.5 kernel add-on is coming within the next couple days (possibly tonight).

Hey, does the new recovery supports unicode and right to left text? (for foreign languages)

Right to left text shouldn't be a problem but I'm not sure if Unicode is supported. Best to just try it.

I don't wanna upgrade yet.
but what I mean in RTL text is:
In English, we write from LTR, in some other languages, we write from RTL.

Is that what you also mean?

Yeah I know what you mean. It shouldn't be a problem, Unicode support is the only thing I am unsure on.

ok thanks.
Can you explain me how the translator works?
(Like, opening a source file and editing, or it's a text file etc...)
Because I really don't wanna download this untill:
1. My favorite CXMB theme will be on 4.01
2. I'll insure all my homebrews from 3.90 will work with the 4.01 kernel (alot of NID changes as i've heard)
3. That's pretty much all:D

It's just a standard text file that you'll need to edit. Each line corresponds to one of the recovery menu items.

2 questions:
1- Does the fatmsmod work with this CFW? (Or did Sony fixed it?)
2-Does the popsloader work?

Using the patched fatmsmod PRX hasn't been tested, though it probably wouldn't work. As for popsloader, a new version is in the works.

oki doki.I'll wait for a new fatmsmod :p

Thanks

HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP

I just got my first psp and i updated to firmware 4.01 and when i try to install custom firmware 4.01 M33 (i put it in the right directory just like instructed) i get an error that says THE GAME COULD NOT BE STARTED. (80020148)

What am i doing wrong?

you need to have Custom Firmware to install 4.01 M33

mravec, you need a homebrew compatible psp to be able to upgrade to custom firmware. you need to use pandora's battery to upgrade to 3.90 m33 and from there upgrade to 4.01 m33.

does anyone have a good guide how to use pandora batery?

Today's my daughter's birthday so that alone makes today a beautiful day,but to get a new custom firmware makes it even better! Thanks as always Alexander..you're really not just an Illusion..

Now I'm curious. Do you know anything about this, x3?

Thanks DA for the update, now leaves with this question. what is the "improvements" in video playback?

Furthermore can't wait for the patches as well.

As always when update arrives DAX's servers can't stand the pressure :)
Thanx Exo for mirroring the files, and for all you do to PSP community.
HOME PAGE for me ;)

I've tested a few 3.xx kernel homebrews and they seem to work so far :)

OK, I will update as soon as Large Original CXMB is released for 4.01 M33.

BTW, some1 tried Lua Player HM version 7 on this?

can i upgrade from 3.95GEN

Yes you can upgrade from 3.95 GEN. Someone already reported success in upgrading over at the FAQ forum.

@fearevil19: I don't know, most likely just for testing the region settings. He probably forgot to remove them.

For me the hide pic0.png and pic1.png option in the recovery menu wont change to enabled. When i press X on it, it doesnt change and the selection just goes to the back option.

Has anyone else had this problem?

DaX is the best.

May you live a long life on this CFW forthcoming earth XD

It seems the MS driver in 4.01 is much faster than 3.90.
I can scroll through 200+ pics lightning fast also switching pictures with R-trigger displays them much faster.

ill wait till it a new version of popsloader comes out.. =)

damn . i fell for the updating thing .
now it's causing me loads of problems .
stupid sony .

someone pls reply meeeee . asap .
now i cant use my psp at all .
totaly bullshyt .

I highly doubt It'd make a difference if you bought a new psp and made the 3.80(yes the new slimline models coming off the shelves are now embedded with 3.80 instead of 3.60). 3.80 OFW or 4.01 OFW doesn't make a difference. They both require a Pandora battery and a "magic" stick to install CFW. However, if you didn't even care enough to read and simply updated your firmware using network update while you're on a CFW that's lower than 3.80 M33, then I have nothing to say except "Sorry dude, you ownt yourself".

Actually, they ship with 3.90 as of four days ago when I bought mine. Nonetheless, 4.01 m33-2 is out now. Use the network update. 8)

Well first of all, I don`t know much about psp modding or pandoras battery or anything like that. My friend modded my PSP for me a couple of years ago and just showed me how to get all of the "newly bought" games and emus etc working. Anyways, I "bought" a new game yesterday and it required a firmware update to work. I checked my current firmware, which was if I remember correctly 3.40. So noob as I am I tried to download and install the official firmware, which didn`t quite succeed. (I got the error message which has been refered quite many times in this thread) So... I did some random info gatherhing and came to the result that I need this 4.01 m33 thing firmware for my psp. I downloaded, installed it (Don`t think that I screwed something during that process. I may be a noob with psp`s but I am quite eduiqate with computers and I have done a lot of similar processes. Besides this is something a monkey could do if it wanted...) Anyhow back to the subject.. When I went to my PSP menu and selected the 4.01 m33 firmware and started the installation so to speak. My PSP`s screen went black and in the screen text strated appearing with the same font as in recovery mode btw. And the text says:
Unpacking... done
Please wait...

Now it has been there the whole night and I afraid that if I turn the psp off it will at least explode or something (that was not meant to be taken seriously)

So all that I`m askin is some help guys?

is there anyway to undo the process frosty.

zz.
once the version is updated it's updated?

i got it and it was not in folder form please tell me wat to do

Well I know I'm gonna regret asking this question, seeing as how people who were smart enough at the time not to upgrade their firmware think they are high and mighty, but I'll ask anyways.

I wanted to mod my brothers PSP, and I saw that he upgraded to the 3.95 OFW. I want to get a custom firmware, but frankly I'm just too damned poor to afford an extra battery and memory card, so I want to know can you upgrade 3.95 OFW to 4.01 M33? If not, are there any alternatives to pandora's battery for someone who has bills to pay and can't spend money on a 40 dollar memory card and battery?

You will still need a CFW PSP if you want to convert your own battery (soft-mod).
Hardmod not recommended.

Go to qj and search for an "newbie installer". That's what you need for the stick.
Be sure to use XP, not vista.

Well I did what you said, which by the way, thanks for your help, and it came up with a thing 'too many results' but it showed some, and the first result was 'Homebrew Installer Maker'. I'm just wondering if that's what I'm looking for.

despertar del cementerio v6 with 4.01 m33-2 addon implemented would be really nice at this point :D

The game cuold not be started (80020148 ) :sneaky2: . What is problem? I have Sysem Software: Version 3.95 firmware. My msn is yankee22mc@feelthebeat.in can someone help me....

{{{READ FIRST BEFORE COMPLAIN}}

it said ain the first topic...it need CFW means COSTUM FIRMWARE not A FIRMWARE is FIX not custom so you may downgrade that to CFW 3.90 m33 to update in 4.02m33 ok..:smile:
:LOL:

is it better than 3.90 m33-3??
and is this really works>>i dont want to semi break my psp^^,

woooOOOooOooo SooOOoo nICe...
my XMB is FAST also the cso and ISO files so fast to load...

and finally the when i connected to a computer its going faster to transfer files than my 3.90m33 CFw hahah...thanks so much...so nice pROMISE more powers guyzz..

i did everything and i go to update and it goes to an error help?

Thank you Dark_AleX

Jsabs: First of all what is the error message you are receiving? If you are trying to run the update from official firmware it will not work. You need a homebrew capable PSP.

ok heres my situation.... i have a custom 3.90M33-3 before, and then theres a 3.93 FW released which i have from PSPISO link. They said that this has a functionality of a customized FW i dont encounter problem when i upgraded from 3.90 to 3.93. So what im asking now is that is it ok to jump to 4.01M33-2 right away without downgrading or converting back to 3.90M33-3? is there a similarity with 3.95GEN2 jumping directly to the 4.01 CFW??


need help pls. Thanks so much :smile:
