[RELEASE] 5.01 for 5.00 M33 Easy Installer

This is nothing more than a simple installer to apply the SONY 5.01 Firmware fixes to 5.00 m33. (There have been safety checks put in place, to prevent someone flashing this to the wrong firmware...) Some people don't like manually flashing their PSP, so maybe they will find this helpful.

A video demonstration of the Easy Installer:

for more info on 5.00 m33

Credits to matchung for investigating what files changed between 5.00 and 5.01 and testing it.



EDIT: I also released an Easy installer for the 5.00 m33 PS1 (POPS) bug found earlier in the week here:

for those interested...

Does anyone know what has changed between 5.0 and 5.01?

Just used this and now I'm able to use the psn store again. :)

@Zack: The 5.01 updates fixes an issue to do with users using 8GB and 16GB memory sticks, which was causing a message indicating lack of space on the stick to appear, even if there is enough actually available. Somehow reminds me of when Sony rolled out version 2.70 fixing the space issue for 2GB memory sticks back two years ago.

Nice job Mr.Shizzy, forgot to say it in the last post :o

I will be using it once I fix my Laptop, it has like eaten it's insides out :rofl: Deleted loads of my programs and settings....

I finally found XP drivers for it though so no more Vista for me.

Anyway, sorry for off-topicness and nice work :)
