Dark_AleX and Mathieulh are currently preparing custom firmware 3.30 OE for release. They say it may released in 48-72 hours, but with little functions.

Dark_AleX is deciding what to do:
Release 3.30 OE right away, and release bonus functions later
or
wait and release it all at once at a later date
Moreover, within sight of the size higher of the 3.30, to add functions will be undoubtedly an exploit. The place cruelly starts to miss on the memory flash.

However, adding bonus functions will be hard. 3.30 takes up most of the flash, leaving little room.

As of 4-3-07 6:22 AM GMT, Dark_AleX says that 3.30 will probably be released in 2-3 days.

Awesome news for all Custom Firmware and full speed PSX Emulator fans

It may not contain all of the new features in 3.30 right away...

An Exploit maybe needed to run higher functions?

Well, undoubtedly "releaser" me... cruelly...

You may have a point there. If it uses all of the flash's memory, we may have to install extra components in the memory stick as extra functionality via Recovery Mode.
But really...I think some of the functions that SONY give takes out way too much flash space. For instance, the Web Browser, RSS, MP3 player and even the function of connecting to the PS3 (whatever the thing is called...Can't tell w/o Text in my Theme).
IMHO I rather watch my movies than playing MP3s on my humble 3.03 OE-C PSP =D

Custom firmwares are one of the greatest things on the PSP but the size of the flash0 is beginning to become a problem. It probably could be run from the memory stick if needed... but i hate running anything firmware related from my memory stick. This makes me wonder how hard it would be to upgrade and flash new memory.

FireStag
April 3rd, 2007, 23:22
Wouldn't dummying the Japanese Font help with the flash space, you know that "Free up to 2.5MB in your flash" program?

burrito
April 3rd, 2007, 23:22
The Japanese font takes up a few mbs.

I'll try to make a better translation ^^


Like we told you 2 days ago, Dark_Alex & Mathieulh are making a 3.30OE.
Adaption or innovation ? On this question depends the release date... Click on "Next" ...


Even if the custom firmware 3.30OE is ready in 48 or 72h like announced , the release may not occur right after.

You must wonder what could delay the release of your favourite custom firmware...In fact, Dark_Alex & Mathieulh plan to add some little bonus in this new version and it could be made only when the custom firmware is ready, meaning, like we said, in 48 or 72 hours

Now there are 2 possibilities:

*Release the OE when he is ready and release "bonus" patches after.

*Wait and release the complete OE including the "bonus".

Moreover, seeing the increasing size of the last 3.30 update , adding functionnalities will be very hard. there is less and less free space in flash0.

Of course, we will keep you informed about the news of this CF as soos as we know more about it...



It may not be complete but i think it'll be better than the google one ^^
If you don't understand some aprts i can try to translate it better...

EDIT : to people who want DAX to remove the japanese and korean font : don't you think theere are japanese who might want to use DAX firmware ?

As long as it lets me play the new commertial games as well as homebrew and pops I would upgrade.

Oh and by the way, I am running 3.10oe-a' and i really could care less about topmenu, mainly because of it's instability, that caused countless bricks(semi or not).

Not that I'd mind having fly psp icons but when it comes down to it, i'd much rather be able to play Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters, than look at a custom icon for 5 seconds before clicking it, and booting something more fun.

No ! you still need 1.5 or a cf to upgrade but it( = the 3.30 OE ) is NOT a downgrader and will not allow you to downgrade it is completely different

We really need a customizable firmware. A .exe that will alow us to pick and choose different features of the firmware that we can add and subtract in order to best use the space in the flash for our own personal uses. That would be ideal. Then DA could just keep coming out with new features regardless of size.

No 3.30 fits on your flash but in future updates, it may have a limit to how many features your psp can have because of the space each of those features takes up on your flashh.

Am I the only one confused as to what all these firmwares are? What is the difference between 3.03 oe or 3.03C, etc. (if that's even right) Why would someone want an older firmware (3.03) instead of a newer one (3.10oe or 3.30oe). What "features" could DA add in that $ony wouldn't have? I thought the only point of custom firmware was to have a restore point and play homebrew? Please explain and forgive me for butchering the name's of all those firmwares =)

Veskgar
April 4th, 2007, 05:13
These are some very good developments. Its almost scary how much the PSP scene relies on Dark_AleX & team. His custom firmwares, especially due to the PSX emulation built in is one of the main driving forces of the homebrew scene right now.

Again, I don't see why people are so concerned with custom XMB. I use 3.10 OE-A' and prefer that over 3.03 OE.

You must also consider that a lot of changes and updates are unseen. Built into the code. Look at how many changes there are when a new version of daedalus or other emulators are released. The same goes for the POPS emu from SONY.

I am very curious as to Dark_AleX's **bonus** he has planned. Usually Dark_AleX likes to give us a little something extra. Its still unclear if the "bonus" is something on top of the regular 3.30 changes or if its some of the 3.30 changes that are not fully working yet on an OE setup.

I guess we will know more in a couple days.

Thanks for the hard work and dedication Dark_AleX!

Here's some good news:
It looks as if the top menu may indeed be customizable in 3.30 OE. :D

Here is what ZinGa BuRgA had to say about it:
(quoted from his forums)


About 3.30's RCOs

I finally managed to download the 3.30 update so I could have a little look at some RCOs...

visualizer_plugin.rco
Firstly, I say, there's nothing to be excited about this one. All the RCO contains is 14 images (I checked by searching for the signature; the header indicates that no more than 15 images are in there though). Also contains what appears to be a "blank" (unused/useless) page resource.

As for the purpose of the images, I don't know. I guess it's possible that the some of them are used in the visualizations, but making your own effects won't be possible by editing the RCO.

topmenu_plugin.rco
The 1 or 2 extra page resources present in the 3.10 topmenu (which was what caused the problems) aren't present in the 3.30 topmenu, and the 3.30 topmenu's header is only 668 bytes longer than the 3.0x one (both unpacked), so yes, 3.30 OE will almost certainly be customizable Smile
Interestingly, though, the icons in the 3.30 topmenu take up less space than the 3.0x topmenu Erf
Since topmenu's a large RCO, I'm too lazy to do any further investigation, but I can say that custom icons will most likely work on 3.30

WipEout Pure players may want to know about this, I don't know if it's been covered already on DcEmu forums. The information comes from WipeoutZone forums:
http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3774

On FW 3.11 & 3.30, some tracks can't be played in multiplayer mode. People at Studio Liverpool (the guys who made the game) have been made aware of the issue, and some forumers have sent emails to Sony Helpdesk.
Atm the problem has not been solved. So for now if you want to play multiplayer Pure, avoid these FW, custom or not.

Ahh my friend you can free up space by disabling jap fonts or the other font file the gb3s1518.bwfon. Replacing the .bwfon file wont mess up anything at all but the jpn0.pgf will make some things go missing. And not to mention other files they we dont use like the camera, gamesharing and so on. So Mike we can free up space. And Mike we need to post a Tut on freeing up space to flash0 on my forums. I seen one on QJ but I dont think it has been updated to let you know what can be deleted without hurting your psp. If 3.30 OE has custom icons then I'm so updating lol. Hopefully if I do, it wont mess up my saves like upgrading to 3.02 OE did, I'll be in a rage if my FF9 saves get f'ed up. Well cant wait now that I seen 3.30 OE has the possibility for icons I cant wait for this thing.

Speaking purely out of self-interest, I'd be all for a 3.30 OE released even feature-free. Why? Because I need to downgrade.

Yes, I'm another one of those dumbasses who upgraded straightaway to 3.11, thinking there was a downgrader for it already. D'oh... :(

I have to dissagree with you man. I think this is how it should be done

Release it all at once then:
1 Release 3.3 OE without the bonus feature(s)
2 then have the bonus content in differnt packages so people can choose what they want

I kept my jap fonts there because it annoys me when it makes stuff go missing i just took the bwfon file ( the 1mb file in font folder) and dummied it thats the best way to do it so nothing is missing. Plus after you install the firmware you can remove what you dont want its not that hard to do.:thumbup:

Good for you. Frankly, I don't see how anyone gives a shit what you think. If you had read up the previous posts you would realize why there is a point, but ignorance is bliss, and therefore you did well by ignoring the entire post count.


We really need a customizable firmware. A .exe that will alow us to pick and choose different features of the firmware that we can add and subtract in order to best use the space in the flash for our own personal uses. That would be ideal. Then DA could just keep coming out with new features regardless of size.
I too was thinking along the same lines. I believe the best method is a core unit with is basically the kernel and key components vital to running the PSP. Everything else is modular and can be selected, deselected based on a package system, similar to the ones used in Linux distributions. By this you can have dependencies, for example, adding the visualizer module would automatically add the MP3 player module, etc. Selection here can take place of official modules (Video playback, LocationFree, for example) or DAX custom modules (ISOFS, FTPD or stuff). A flash usage bar at the top would tell you when you have run out of available space for modules, and ask you to revise your choices. Then it'll generate the firmware package for you :)

It's good to see I'm not the only person with the idea :) and therefore maybe Dark_aleX and various teams that may help have this floating around somewhere on paper :D Though, for me, I'm not seeing much improvement on features in the PSP Homebrew scene right now, we're hitting one of those areas of little activity again :p

It's good to see I'm not the only person with the idea :) and therefore maybe Dark_aleX and various teams that may help have this floating around somewhere on paper :D Though, for me, I'm not seeing much improvement on features in the PSP Homebrew scene right now, we're hitting one of those areas of little activity again :p

You hit the nail right on the cabesa :thumbup:

Am I the only one confused as to what all these firmwares are? What is the difference between 3.03 oe or 3.03C, etc. (if that's even right) Why would someone want an older firmware (3.03) instead of a newer one (3.10oe or 3.30oe). What "features" could DA add in that $ony wouldn't have? I thought the only point of custom firmware was to have a restore point and play homebrew? Please explain and forgive me for butchering the name's of all those firmwares (Also for posting this twice...I'm just really confused!) =)

1.Am I the only one confused as to what all these firmwares are?

2.What is the difference between 3.03 oe or 3.03C, etc.

3.Why would someone want an older firmware (3.03) instead of a newer one (3.10oe or 3.30oe).

4.What "features" could DA add in that $ony wouldn't have?

5.I thought the only point of custom firmware was to have a restore point and play homebrew?

6.Please explain and forgive me for butchering the name's of all those firmwares (Also for posting this twice...I'm just really confused!) =)

1. No

2. 3.30 OE means 3.30 Open Edition, its a firmware made by Dark_Alex and team. It have 1.50 Kernal (to play hombrews, application and emulator that use 1.50 firmware) and with 3.30 additions (like web browser, location media free player, rss channels, change themes, free wifi using t-mobile, and some other things that 1.50 dont have)

PS: You will need 1.50 frimware or other Custom Firmware made by Dark_Ales and team.

3.Non1 here want to update to 3.03, they would update to 3.03 OE (Open Edition) to run the fuctions of 3.03 frimware + 1.50 hombrews.

4.Dark_Alex will let us add some things to the custom firmware like:

-custome the xmb (psp menu)
-add our plugins
-a ps1 full speed emulator (dont need a ps3)
...and other things.

5. Thats 1 point, but there are more reason to upgrade to a custome firmware

6. I had expalined it... see step 1-5 for more help... lol:D

gunntims0103

The "play any ps1 game full speed without a ps3" was definitly the most groundbreaking ability the OE firmwares have. One of the best exploits in homebrew history.

Sony added the PS1 emulator on PSP. But it has limited games compatibility with Sony's firmwares,also you have to buy the games from the PlayStation store which have a limited titles and it's accessible through the PS3 only. But now DA came and cracked it. With this crack you can play any[almost] game. You can make your own roms and play them,no need for PS3,waste of money,or PlayStation store.

Nope, no news as of yet. I'm crossing my fingers that 3.30 OE will have an accompanying downgrader for the firmwares above 3.03, but I won't hold my breath.

Well, they did say he's still trying to decide whether to put it out immediately or wait till it's more feature-complete. Obviously I'd like to see it sooner and have features added later, but there seems to be support no matter which way he decides to do it.

No, as you need an exploit for a downgrader. Coding a downgrader isn't as simple as just writing some C code and it magically works unsigned on the PSP.

What the hell!!!? Omg so it was a "April Fool's" joke...

No it wasn't... They changed the topic because they were fed up of people asking about it... Wouldn't you be?

Besides, that article when translated by google doesn't speak the truth. This is a better translation on www.psp-hacks.com:


If custom firmware 3.30 OE happens to be done within the next 48 to 72 hours, the release will not necessarily be made available to the masses.

I can already hear you swearing, asking me what could possibly be delaying the release of your favorite custom firmware… In fact, Dark_Alex and Mathieulh plan on implementing little bonuses in this new version and that can only take place after finishing the standard version, which, like we said, will take place in the next 48-72 hours.

At this moment, there’s two possibilities:

- Either release 3.30 OE standard and propose a later patch to add these bonus functions

- Or wait, and release a more complete version

So there you have it... The REAL news.

Well, D_A has yet to dissapoint, so I'm looking forward to it, I'll guess the bonus is.... Viewable .gifs in the image viewer. Or more easily customizable XMB. Just guesses.

what does that have to do with the topic?

and why should DAX create a new n64 emu? the ps1-emu was just a modified version of the sony one if i'm not mistaken that just adds more compability and negates the need to buy the games from sony again.

Maybe Sony will add an N64 emulator then !? :eek: :eek: :eek:

D_A said no new features besides 3.30 kernel. He said it's going to take a while because some hardware problems he's running into. He's rebuilding the OE Core to free up RAM and make OE more stable.

Well I thought again about the N64 emulator. And i've come to teh conclusion that Sony might never add an N64 emulator :( since the N64 is made by Nintendo. You know?

But perhaps they will add a PlayStation 2 emulator then !? :eek: :eek: :eek:

some ppl are saying he only had 1...is this true?
can you develop 13 custom firmware (all write to flash) on asingle psp.
he must be a god lol

When will you Noobs get it already !???
Damn it!

Dark_AleX had a PSP with a Modchip (UP)!!! UP modded PSP's are basically unbrickable!
But now it seems that this Modchip or other hardware parts of his PSP have a malfunction. He needs such a modded PSP because the chance of bricking while messing around with the bootstrap and testings is VERY HIGH.
So just wait for him to receive his new PSP which is said to be on its way already...

over 2 month time for Sony to improve the PS1-Emulation. That ist more than a reason to be keen on that FW. PS1 emulation is my main reason to use my PSP :)

but sony's ps1 emulation is only if uv got a ps3. thats where homebrew comes in.

Take it back the game shop you bought it from and tell them it isn't what you thought it would be. Get your money back and go fish for one at another store LOL.

dude if you take it back to walmart be careful.. i bricked my old psp and bought a new one at walmart .. then i thought hey ill try the walmart trick ... pff make sure you change the serial number sticker on the bottom of the psp .. because they DO CHECK and they DO turn it on ... they drilled me about what was wrong with it for about 45 minutes calling managers and what not .. but in the end i ended up with a brandnew psp and $215 dollars back in my pocket ... go me walmart blows

well... I think I may be getting my hands on another one for 50 bucks from my dad, he works at a rent to own place, and basically there is one that is coming back from being repaired, bascally once the psp has been in store inventory for a x amount of months and x amount of dollars has been made on it the store cuts its losses and sells it out to the employees if intrested for low price...

so I may get that one and hope like heck it is at 2.71 or lower.... If not I will probably do the wal mart deal....

I like the game shop I go to so im not going to give them a hard time... I hate wal mart...

Sam Wall is probably rolling over in his grave to what they have done to that place
