3.40oe-3.90m33 Custom Firmware Installation Guide. VERY NOOB friendly

[Magahye]

i tried doing the 3.71M33-2 update 6 times, but no matter what i do. It just keeps turning up as corrupt file, i am at least 500% sure i didn't do the steps wrong. Please help!!!

[ongjason13]

currently on 3.10oea, read the readme in 3.52m33 folder, so i guess i can just follow steps for ppl with cfw installed?(place stuff in game 150 etc), after reaching3.52m33-4 just follow the rest of ur guide right?]
pls correct me mif any part of the above is incorrect

Try putting the GAME files in GAME folder (not game371 or game150)
I will edit that to be more specific.

Yay.... I think I installed 3.52 M33. Can I get rid of all the folders I copied onto my PSP now?

HI,drew00629, i would like to ask you.
my version is 3.40oe, if i no do M33 Update, can i direct use 3.52M33 CREATOR to update to 3.52m33??
thank you!!!

it depends on what internet browser you use.
if you are on firefox, click the TOOLS menu, select OPTIONS,
click the PRIVACY tab, click SETTINGS
check all the boxes and then select CLEAR
i dont know how to do it on internet explorer (and seriously, if you are on ie, consider getting a real browser that lets you get online).

on your psp, start the internet connection (if you dont have the internet on it, dont worry about clearing anything). press the TRIANGLE button. click the box next to the A.
clear cookies
clear cache
clear authentification
just clear everything.

yes, you can format the mem stick and it will erase everything and create new folders.

if you are on an custom firmware, then when you open the 352m33 download, use the m33 Creator.. that will then create the update file.

thank you very much...nice guy drew00629

For 1.50 to 3.4 OEA The PSP just turns off when its looking for the data.DXAR. have i Done something wrong?

[Mwasim1]

I followed the guide and it works great. I'm in 3.71 M33-3 and it sucks I want to go back 3.40OE-A how do I go about doing it.


NEVER MIND FOUND THE ANSWER

if someone else needs it GO HERE this will get you to 1.50

glad to see people are still using my old tutorial layout, WTF my old links link to somewhere else

[Johelian]

Ive read this several times, and Im wondering if theres a step missing? Im upgrading from 3.40oe-a, so Ive gathered from the threads linked off this post that I can just follow the instructions from the 1.50-3.52M33 so long as I post the folders into the GAME150 folder - right?

Anyways, after step 1 in this process, there is no mention of pasting the kxploit folders to the memory stick. Ive pasted them into GAME150 and rather than M33 Upgrade it says Kxploit Permanent Patcher. Have I put this in the right place?

[DarkFoxSniper]

If your on CFW you do not need to run the kxploit patcher.

[Johelian]

Right, sorry - I didnt quite understand the process, but I get it now. Really.


EDIT - I seem to have a problem when it comes to changing the kernel to 3.52. Mine only lets me switch between 3.40 and 1.50. Why is this?

EDIT EDIT - something has gone wrong, as it still says Im running 3.40oe-a even though Ive just run the steps to get 3.52M33! Totally confused now as Ive followed this exactly.
