5.50 GEN-B

I was wondering if I can change my cfw from 5.00 m33 to 5.50 GEN-B. I found out that they made Disgaea and Persona (along with everyother non working game) work. I was also wondering if I can switch back when DarkAlex comes out with a new cfw.

 

You can always switch back using the pandora method.
I think you can go from 5.00M33 to 5.50 GEN A by just running the update. Then to 5.50 GEN B once you are on GEN A.

Personally I'm just going to wait a bit more, and see if this new decrypter unlocks some more secrets in a few days or so.

 

Ya, I just read about haveing to update to 5.50 GEN-A first then GEN-B. Whats the pandora method??

 

Using the Pandora Battery to install custom firmware on your PSP. Referred to as a "TOOL" Battery.

Pandora Battery + Magic Memory Stick.

 

I have to do that again if I want to swich back to m33?? Why cant they be interchangeable??

 

mainly the reason ihavent upgraded yet. i dont have pandora battery. lucky for me my cousin never played and gave it to me on firmware 2.0 ;D im happy that i got lcs cheat device for 5.00 and 5.50. pm me if u want it

 

I guess if you have GEN B2, you can run Hellcat's Recovery homebrew.

But personally I think it's easier just to use the Pandora Battery, takes just a couple minutes and you don't have to screw around with programs or anything.

 

but i heard it makes your battery inoperable if you turn it into a pandora. i dont own one so i dont have much exerience with them. there may be patched versions of the game out there like soul calibur

 

Thanks for the advice!! I think Ill wate for Dark Alex to come out with a new cfw like everyone else....

 

I switched from M33-6 to 5.50 Gen-B and I really didn't notice much besides the newer games working.

 

ICE-X. was there anything different with the background? as you may be aware sony changed the waves on the psp's background. onthe ps3 it now has little particles (like stars) floating around the background. i was wondering if it was on the newer psp firmwares

 

Yeah, it's a different default theme, with the one you just described.

 

thats enough to make me upgrade. i'm gonna do it now.

 

I don't think the new background is in the 5.50. The Gen team is working on the 6.00 right now though, so that probably has it.

Edit: My 5.50 has the waves still.

 

oh well. thanks anyway. i wonder how long it will take for them to release 6.00. btw, any known developers/ coders in the GEN team?

 

Anyway last i heard Dark Alex is not even going to make a 6.00...

But you never know..~

 

that sucks. i love Dark_Alex :'( . he was so cool and he gave us all those cfw. but who is this GEN team? They've come out of nowhere. they should've just let DaX do it

 

There are so many rumors, I'm just ignoring them all and waiting to see what happens when the PSP Go comes out.

 

Anyway...

PSP Firmware Update (v6.10)

PSP update (v6.10) will be available soon. This is a big update for us in preparation for the launch of PSPgo. New PSPgo owners should make sure to download the update to ensure full compatibility with MediaGo and with all PSP titles. Here are some of the key features we’ll be introducing:

SensMe
Media Go Enhancements
Tethering

For more information follow link to Sony's Official Blog


Now its going to be even more troublesome...~

 

Tethering looks good but i agree. Developers will have an extremely hard time hacking and cracking the new firmware. maybe as soon as you connect your psp to media go it bricks it or doesn't let you use it unless you have the latet firmware like the playstation store. Developers may need to find a way to hide our firmware from it.
