Found out that this custom firmware still uses the config.se of Dark Alex cause all my recovery settings are still the same after upgrading.

Isos loadup the same.
Homebrew load the same.
POPS still working.
no-umd compatibilty still the same (only tested a few games)

Overall this is the same as 3.40oe-a exept for the higher firmware number leading to the ability to launch 3.51 games.
