Well, I know that. But the way CaptainMorgan4 worded his answer was weird, so I didn't understand it directly.

It's been a while since I've been here. Could someone please explain how I would get from custom firmware 3.10 OE-A to this custom firmware version??

Thanks fro replying!

Fast update and good update, as usual.
I'm still using 3.71 M33-4, because, as a PSP-1004 owner, I don't have use for any of the new features and changes in the last two firmwares.

So, regarding the POPS, it's like this:

POPS will always work from the instant a new custom firmware is installed (unless stated otherwise in the readme). All hacked POPS games you have yourself do work in theory, because it will always use the POPS function integrated and installed in the PSP's flash. You don't need the popsloader plugin enabled or installed for them to run and work perfectly fine.

The popsloader plugin that is likely to be released soon, and that has been released in the past, is merely for using older versions of the popsloader in case any of your custom POPS games have trouble running using the installed custom firmware's internal flash POPS, which they sometimes do if Sony has altered it - for better or for worse.

In other words; if not being able to run one single POPS game on this firmware is your only concern about upgrading and is the only reason you use your PSP: upgrade and try, because it likely will if it has worked on all previous custom firmware, or wait for the new popsloader plugin to be released so you can use an older POPS version to load it instead!

Yeh, I meant to wait for people to deny/confirm said posts, as blackrave has pretty much just done.

Ok. Thanks Blackrave. That answered my question perfectly

Where is the "Root" and where to I place the 1.50 update?

The root is the main sector of your memory card, basically put it ALONG with the PSP and MP_ROOT folders.

Well, I was wrong, DAX firmware and 1.50 addon works fine. The problem happens when I flashed the applecore theme that the 1.50 emus didn't work. Is there anything I can do to the theme to fix this?
