[Vendeta]

Romer had it is its bricking most ta-082( may be old news) but i was on sonys forum and its messed up... sumthing is wrong JUST DONT UPDATE TILL THIS IS CONFURMEND A MYTH!

As far as i gather this says its unsafe for ta-082's
http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=psp&thread.id=2811198
MAJOR EDIT: There was a confusion on the forums this is for the offical sony 3.10 update (not like anyone would but...) if u have downgraded ur psp ta-082 to any fw and try to update to 3.10 offical firmware u will brick!

PLEASE NOTE: that 3.10 OE A is completly safe but the offical update is not...

[kaggy]

I got a ti-082 and it worked just fine. I think that refers to people who are upgrading to the official 3.10 from a OE firmware

[Vendeta]

Well rumer is is that sum ta-082's are bricking on updating... read that tread...

[kaggy]

btw i find it funny that you say double posters must die in your sig, yet you double posted this thread.

[Vendeta]

No that was a error on the server not my fault
THERE WAS A CONFUSION ITS NOT DARK ALEXES CUSTOM FIRMWARE ITS SONYS OFFICAL UPDATE!!!

yea thats what I said

[Vendeta]

Its still news to know...

[SSaxdude]

Yeah but upgrading to Sony's 3.10 is for crazy people.

[Vendeta]

But you never know... its always better to be safe then sorry....

[xcjzerox]

I update my psp with fw 3.10 oa is safe

[Vendeta]

3.10 OE is safe but the offical one aint...

[mavsman4457]

I think Dark_Alex did it like that on purpose so the people who update get punished since they deserve to have their PSP bricked.

[keefurxxcore]

haha

[S34MU5]

vendeta = noob

[MicroNut]

IS there any good reason to update to 3.10 OE?

[xg917]

not really, but better compat on psx games, and just a few new features in the firmware its self.
and its false. dont matter what mother board you have. it will not brick unless u do something wrong.
moving onnnn....

[Vendeta]

This aint for the OE its for the offical update... read the thread correctly next time i said a couple times it was for OFFICAL UPDATE...

[MicroNut]

Oh... sorry this a warning for the official 3.10 update.
It should probably say that in the title of the thread,
but I agree that I need to read threads much closer before replying to them.

If 3.10 OE has better PSX emulation then its worth it.
That part wasn't clear to me either, thanks xg917

Just to make sure I think I'll wait for the 3.02 pops plug-in for 3.10 first before taking that step.

Thanks the kind replies folks.

[S34MU5]

Vendeta, please learn to spell.

Your posts are riddled with mistakes. They burn my eyes.

"romer has it" Lolz

I don't think so...

Guys, you need to downgrade to 1.5, upgrade to 2.71 and then downgrade to 1.5 again, before you can even THINK about upgrading to a Sony official firmware. You should never upgrade from an OE firmware anyway...

PSX emulation works fine on 3.10, no need to wait for 3.02 pops plugin...

[MicroNut]

I love playing a game called Future Cop LAPD.
But it requires the 3.02 pops plug-in.
Will 3.10 OE play this game?

I don't see why not... If its a PSX game, it should play; if anything 3.10 would have introduced more compatibility and it may play better than it had...

My games all work fine on 3.10.

[MicroNut]

Thanks
I'll wait for the pops 3.02 plug-in for 3.10 because I don't want to be locked out of my game.

Edit: I just read that R-Types crashes in 3.10 when it didn't in 3.03 so I am not sure there can be any reassurances about compatibility without any play testing.
And this is going off topic for this thread, so I wont post anymore in it.

[xg917]

you can just recover back to 1.5 and then update to 3.03 OE and use the 3.02 pops plugin if u dont like 3.10 OE

[Diplomat223]

Is there any way I can get custom firmware on the ta-082 besides the one you stated?

[jak66]

you can just recover back to 1.5 and then update to 3.03 OE and use the 3.02 pops plugin if u dont like 3.10 OE

what is everyones obsession with recovering to 1.50

'Oh noez, i semi-bricked my PSP. Recover to 1.50 quick.'
'Damn i press the volume - button. Recover to 1.50 now!'
'Shit, i turned my PSP on, guess i better recover to 1.50.'

you can go from 3.10 OE straight to 3.03 OE, no degrade to 1.50 is needed, just put the stuff in game150 and it will work perfectly.

(NOTE: This was not aimed entirely at you, but at everyone that says 'degrade to 1.50 then reupgrade to 3.XX OE' as that is just a complete waste of time and has more risk of brick, because your flashing twice when you only need to flash once)

[MicroNut]

I just finished migrating my friends TA-82 to 3.10 OE-A' with the new pops loader. -Yea!

I need to know if its ok tell the person if they can flash an offical Sony update if desired?

With the "id_storage" changed are they locked onto using OE firmware forever?

-I dont know why anyone would.
-And just in case I am not around to help with any further upgrades.

[Diplomat223]

I upgraded to 3.10 OE-A, accidentally and didn't get bricked.

Both guides I followed both stated that It will work on a TA-082 PSP as well.

Im not sure what the problem is....

How can you get Popstation on the 3.10 when it didn't come with the package? SOmeone please help.

[Vendeta]

Its The Offical Firmware That Bricks!

Diplomat223, I think I told you before that if the Popstation program isn't in the 3.10 OE-A package, get from the 3.03 OE-C (http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=50596) one.

[Diplomat223]

Oh yes, forgot to add, how?

You did give me the link and im thankful for it, but im completly lost. The readme dosen't help me at all. What I need is help installing it to my PSP.
