**nickxab** · 09-26-2009, 10:55 AM

Ok i am waiting for this to update my psp

**elite999** · 09-26-2009, 12:51 PM

@nickxab, you are betrading M33!! Lol, kidding. I am starting to be tempted on updating to a GEN CFW. :=P

**nickxab** · 09-26-2009, 01:18 PM

Yeah me too because i want to play the MGS.
But if i upgrade it to 5.50 i will lose my 1.50 kernel apps.

No.

You must wait for a new HEN and a new FW for the 3000.

hellpod · 09-27-2009, 07:02 AM

I tried install GEN-B2 with it.
works fine. but i noticed...Recovery Menu and VSH are old GEN-A version???

VSH => No Convert battery menu and shutdown menu
Recovery Menu => In "Use VSH Menu", I can't choose "VSHMENU" and "RECOVERY"...only "Enabled" or "Disabled".

MASTERshane · 09-27-2009, 09:51 AM

Will this work on a 5.03 PSP 3000?

If not, what's the best thing I can do with it. I do have GEN-A.

Strange problem.
Try to reflash it.Maybe this will solve it.

This isn't for the 3000.
Don't try it never,you will brick your psp

**elite999** · 09-27-2009, 10:22 AM

@MASTERshane, you can't do anything. GEN-A and CFE 3.60 are the only custom firmwares you can use atm.

MASTERshane · 09-27-2009, 10:44 AM

Gahhh! Thanks for the quick replies, sorry it's off topic but I just wanted to know.

I'm tempted to trading in my 3000 for a 1000 or even a 2000... Why did I get rid of my 1000...? LoL

**elite999** · 09-27-2009, 10:47 AM

... , because you were tempted to upgrade your console?

MASTERshane · 09-27-2009, 10:51 AM

..., No it was more like, I haven't played my 1000 in a year, sold it on Ebay. Monster Hunter started appearing again and I was sad. Then Monster Hunter Freedom Unite came, and I was like I need a PSP again. Got the 3000 (smaller, better speakers, better screen)... and now I miss hacking, homebrew, etc...

**larryr** · 09-27-2009, 04:36 PM

you made the same mistake i made. i feel for ya.

except i got a brand new PSP-1001 from zellers, so its all better for me!

I hope you can find a good 1001 somewhere.

**nickxab** · 09-28-2009, 06:56 AM

Yes the 1000 is the best for modding

**elite999** · 09-28-2009, 07:32 AM

You can find one refurnished.

**FaT3oYCG** · 09-28-2009, 09:17 AM

WOW what a coincidinki i have just finished refurbishing a PSP 1000 myself now 100% fully working how much? :P.

cookie15 · 09-29-2009, 08:37 PM

I updated to 5.50 GEN B full from 5.00m33-6 using this XGEN updater. However, my games category verison4 plugin seems to crash my psp whenever I turn it on.

The plugin is stated to work on this firmware however. Is there a problem I'm not seeing? Can anyone confirm if there is a similar situation?

**sonamta** · 09-30-2009, 07:26 AM

Thanks man, very helpful!!

Timppu · 09-30-2009, 10:31 PM

Yoshihiro this is great tool!
Any chance to add Test 5.50 GEN-B2 option to menu ie running 5.50 GEN-B2 from memory stick?

**PSPfreakX** · 10-01-2009, 04:55 AM

what are those "TT" or "testing tool" firmwares?

**elite999** · 10-01-2009, 07:23 AM

This lets you manipulate a firmware on your PSP without the need to install the firmware. If that's what you are heading at.

**PSPfreakX** · 10-01-2009, 02:21 PM

like the "Test M33" Option? I don't find a button for this in the tool

**elite999** · 10-02-2009, 01:10 PM

Yeah, I know. I just explained it. I am now curious why he called it a testing tool.

Ollin · 10-08-2009, 02:24 PM

Is it possible to go back to M33 with pandora?

**elite999** · 10-09-2009, 10:06 AM

@Ollin, yes.
