2.71 SE revision B'

[MikeDX]

Dark_Alex (http://dax.lan.st) has updated his custom firmware "2.71SE" to version B', this fixes a few problems with the original B release.

- Fixed the problem of crashing if the iso folder didn't exist

To update, just run the new update from game150 folder, in 2.71 SE-A or 2.71 SE-B


As always with programs like this, that write to the flash there is the rish of bricking your PSP.

DO NOT USE THIS IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

is this SE-B or a new revision

[Kramer]

this is mainly a bug fix of SE-B with a few other options you will have to check out in the readme.

[Shrygue]

I'd better start getting this bug fix right now.

[ExcruciationX]

Cool! :)

[Shrygue]

Yay, I simply love this update! Now I don't need a disk in the UMD drive to play the - well, you know what's that aren't allowed to be mentioned in the forums - games I always wanted to get!

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

do u need to remove all mods like gboots ect b4 updating ?

[steve-b]

I've been planning to stick with 1.50. but this really seems alot nicer. any 1.50 people upgraded to this? what's your thoughts?worth it or stick with 1.50? I really cant decide

[MikeDX]

I've upgraded 5 psps now from 1.50 to 2.71SE-X. 1.50 is redundant to me now, and its lovely to develop on as you dont need to mess around with kxploited folder names.

You don't need to. Just follow the instructions in the readme and will work fine. :)

[crypysmoker]

god I wish I wouldnt have updated to 2.8

[splodger15]

This is good to hear

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

This really is shaping up to be the most awsome FW...Nice swift update roll on rev "C".

[PimpDaddyStu]

just tried 11 cso's there and only 2 of them didn't load when using the no umd mode so compatibility seems good

great work Dark_Alex this is the ultimate firmware

[Vibestar]

Can't see why you wouldn't upgrade to 2.71 SE. It got no negative side only positive things.

[Shrygue]

I have not seen any problems with 2.71 SE-B'. It runs 1.00 and 1.50 games and applications just fine, along with UMD games that require firmware version 2.71. :)

at first i was gunna stick with 1.5(the day SE-A came out), then i upgraded and i loved it, and i'm not going back...SE-B2 is even better so i suggest every 1.5er out there to upgrade, it's just a sooped up 1.5...it won't even feel like u upgraded :)

[blackrave]

Great update! I'm installing SE-B right now, and will update as soon as it's finished.
Thanks for the news.

[robocelot]

It appears to be a bugfix of SE-B... so it's SE-B revision "B".

It's all a bit confusing :-)

How about we call it 2.71SE-B2?

[robocelot]

Can't see why you wouldn't upgrade to 2.71 SE. It got no negative side only positive things.

One possible negative. I can't seem to get USB host working in DevHook .46. I can boot into regular 2.71 just fine and memory stick stuff will register as a UMD, but no UMD icon will appear with programs via USB host.

I'll try a fresh install of DevHook next.

[The_Ultimate_Eggman]

I had same problem installed a earlier version of devhook and all good now...

You can use the vshex DLX mod (version 2 alpha 22), it has a builtin USB support and a nice and handy interface aswell.

[collingall2005]

From What i hear if you have a gameboot over 700kb you might want to remove it, some people have had problems with partial bricks from it, but you can always use the recovery menu if it hapens.

[steven1980cad]

Does edison carters cheat device for GTA work with this Custom firmware? or will I have to use devhook in reverse to enable it?

Anybody know? ? ?

[M!ckeY]

I'm fine having the non-bugfix version, but i guess i'll update it anyways. Great work Dark_AleX. :)

[scarph]

LOLOLOL
now dcemu is posting a version of this firmware that is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT about illegal stuff


ooooo wellllll

[Cloudhunter]

Not 100%... You can now use 1.50 homebrew in the GAME folder and 2.71 hombrew in a GAME271 folder :)

that's one of my favorite thing about this cfw, back to the way things were done :)

[scarph]

i ave noooo idea why anyone would wanna use 2.71 homebrew, isnt it non kernel, shitty, and not as reliable as 1.5. HenC-stupid. This=good stuff

SE-B has HEN-C in it... if it wasn't for HEN-C this probably wouldn't exist either. And 2.71 homebrew can be kernel aswell... look at the easy downdater.

[scarph]

ok what im saying is, its stupid to use 271 homebrew when 150 homebrew is available on se-b

Well, 2.71 homebrew supports WPA for one... where 150 homebrew doesn't :)

Just did the upgrade and right now I´m one happy camper. Very sweet. Without a doubt Dark Alex is a PSP genius.

[cal360]

i've always been loyal to 1.5 but now there is no point to stick with 1.5 anymore 2.71 SE-B has everything that 1.5 has and more

[Shrygue]

I wonder when the next revision for 2.71 SE comes along? I hope that there will be some more new featues added to it! :)

[MikeDX]

I was thinking what could be done to improve the SE firmware

I guess 2.82SE.... ;)

[Shrygue]

2.82 SE? That's sounds good but someone has to try and crack the security in that to make homebrew work as 2.71 SE-B does right now.

[ataribob]

Then how do you get the 1.50 emulators to run ??
No of mine work.
Do I reinstall them or what.

I just restored it back to 1.50

[goa]

Just upgraded from 1.5 - had some mixed results. ScummVM and SNES9X for example aren't working (got a 'Game cannot be started (80020130)' error), while PSPUAE worked.

Any ideas what could be wrong?? Anyway overall this is a great thing to hit the scene.

Now for a noob question: what is the deal with firmware updates with this... is there a way it can update (automatically or if i accidently do it) and if so, is there a way to disable this.

For homebrew just put all of it in the GAME150 folder and all of it should work.

Theres no way it can automatically update so dont worry.

There is no way it can update itself :) Update is disabled in this firmware.

As for homebrew, It is best (In my oppinion) If you set the GAME folder to be for 1.50 homebrew. You do that in the Recovery mode under Configuration.

guys i have a problem i had se-a the i upgraded to se-b but no my memory stick folder wont open under game so i cant even update se-b now does any one know the cause of this

[Cloudhunter]

Make a ISO folder in the root of your memory stick... and a GAME150 folder in PSP.

Cloudy

[enochian]

thankyou that worked i already had a game150 folder
sorry about the spelling in the last post

now the problem is the se-b2 update says corrupted

[ataribob]

HOW DO YOU GET TO THE RECOVERY MODE ?

I hit the right top button and hold it while it boots up.
I installed the recovery folder but it won'r run ?

[enochian]

hold down the r button not just tap it

[enochian]

since i did the 2.71 se-b3 patch do i need to do the b2 patch
