cfw 3.71 & mapthis?

[fak3]

does anyone know if cfw 3.71 works with mapthis?

[nikkinguyen]

Dear all,

It works for me on the fat version. I will start on the slim version immediately and let everyone know.

[nikkinguyen]

oh no. The update on my slim converted my psp into a DS!

Just joking. All is well. Mapthis works on the slim as well. thank goodness.

[the_troll]

Hey, Nik, can you share what prx filex you used. I'm getting an error on 3.71. It states it can't find the usbaccl.prx.

[deniska]

psp-290 version works fine under M33 3.71 with prx files from 3.0 fw

[waichai]

does it work with holux under GAME150?

[asics64]

so do we still set the kernel to 1.5 ?
i tot there is a lot of changes to the kernel for cfw 3.71

[PDG]

does it work with holux under GAME150?

Team M33 stated clearly that the Custom FW for 3.71 M33 does not have 1.50 kernel support (YET!)


The main installer will not install 1.50 kernel anymore.
A 1.50 kernel addon for 3.71 M33 that will install inside 3.71 M33 will be released in a
few days (for fat only)

There will be a 1.50kernel patch like a .prx plugin for this in the future hopefully.
But in the meantime we could just load a E-boot loader :D

eLoader v1.000

And because we now have a FAT and a Slim PSP unit could you guys be more specific of wich unit you have a question for or about :)

3.71 m33 only works on SLIM btw ;)

[nikkinguyen]

Hey, Nik, can you share what prx filex you used. I'm getting an error on 3.71. It states it can't find the usbaccl.prx.

As stated by Deniska, I am still using the ones that I had since 3.40oe.

[the_troll]

Ok, got it to work. I am using the prx files that come in firmware 3.71. So far, works with no problem.

I upped my slim from 3.60 M33 to 3.71 M33 and i extracted my own .prx files but no luck, when MapThis v0.5 boots up i get a ( Error loading USBacc.prx, Map this starts without GPS )

I even tried my old .prx files from my Fat PSP runnint CFW 3.52 m33-4 without luck.
I put mapthis in the /PSP/GAME371 and I even tried the /PSP/GAME150 folder without luck.

Could it be that i have to find some older .prx files?

[deniska]

get the ones from 3.0 FW update they seem to work for me..

[nikkinguyen]

right. Don't bother extracting the one from 3.71. It is useless. I was hoping that it works and maybe faster, but that is not the case. I too got that error. So I stuck to the old prx(s).


Oh, I swap my 4gig memory stick from the fat to the slim and have no problem with mapthis in either versions. The GAME150 works for me for both (so I left it be). If you want, I can upload my setup (which is probably identical to yours). Just let me know.

[waichai]

@PDG
"3.71 m33 only works on SLIM btw "

i thought this CFW 3.71 M33 is for both FAT and SLIM? correct me if iam wrong

You aren't wrong :)

It works on the FAT AND the SLIM.

Yupp, my bad ;)
I thought it was in M33s Slim section, it all gets so confusing ;)

But this one is for shure, the 3.71 Fw does not support 1.50 kernel yet ;)

I upped my slim to 3.71 but im keeping my fats at 3.52 m33-4 :D sorry if i confused you all :p

[PDG]

get the ones from 3.0 FW update they seem to work for me..

*sigh* well well, the ones from the 3.52 M33-4 did not work for me and the ones from 3.71 M33 did not work either.....

Time to Brick my fat PSP *Pandora trick it* and toss in 1.50 then upp it to 3.0 and extract some .prx files *Lol*

Its a mess :rofl:

[nikkinguyen]

PDG ...before you pandora it, try my usb*.prx(s).

[the_troll]

I have a Fat and I used Dumper to get the prx files from 3.71 and IT WORKS. For those they say it doesn't, it does. I can upload the files to megaupload if anyone wants them.

[rollinolin]

what version of mapthis are you running when you have these problems?

I am going through withdrawls my psp is OOC until i get my select button fixed. I had to order a new button flex cable to replace it.

I upped my slim from original 3.60 to 3.60 M33 then to 3.71 M33 and extracted the Slims .prx es and that did not work, MapThis starts but the GPS cant load (USBacc.prx).

I havent upped my Fat PSPs to 3.71 and tried to get those .prx files, is that what you did??

I think meny people will be confused of wich unit (Fat or Slim) to extract things from soon :D

i used my fat psp (i think it works with slim too) and used the m33 psardumper
and extracted 3.71 with the circle option,and got the prx's from the dump and they work like always :)

johoo

Aah i see, I got mine from my new slim unit, i triggerd recovery and enabled usb for flash0 myselve on my Slim running 3.71 M33 and that did not work at all.


I tried nikkinguyen s .prx files when i got a break from work and they worked fine woth MapThis v0.5. (What FW are those files based on??)
http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=522607&postcount=18

The diffrence between those and mine is the filesize.
Niks were:
usbacc.prx = 3,7 k
usbgps.prx = 28,5 k

Mine from my FAT-PSP CFW 3.52 M33-4:
usbacc.prx = 3,1 k
usbgps.prx = 16,2 k

Mine from my SLIM-PSP CFW 3.71 M33:
usbacc.prx = 3,0 k
usbgps.prx = 15,5 k




I never used m33 psardumper before because i thought that enabling USB from recovery and download the files from there worked as well, it did before anyways :D

i tryed that also but couldn't found the prx's in flash0 so i used the psardumper for that but normally they work from flash

I'm not sure if prx's in 3.71 M33 are encrypted or decrypted on the flash. I know they are still encrypted on 3.60 M33

I'd just use psardumer from http://m-33.narod.ru

Cloudy

[nikkinguyen]

PDG - to be honest, I have no idea where they came from. I found them via a thread in this forum. These prx have been so successful thorough my Mapthis experience, I did not even bother to change them out. I did try the 3.71 but failed. That was the only one I have tried.

Ooh that explains it all, i guess 3.52 m33 must be decrupted then and above Encrypted :)
Its time fo a new Tutorial i think *Lol*

Well ill try to decrypt the .prx files from the slims fw 3.71 m33 later on, but yours helped *thanx* :thumbup:

PSP Slim succesfully tested with MapThis v0.5 and Custom Fw 3.71 on Slim :)

[coach777]

I decrypt my PRX files (with psardumper) from firmware 3.0, and they work (3.52 M33-4, 3.60 M33,3.71 M33) much better than 3.52 prx files. Quantity of fixed satellite increased from 4 to 11 !!! I use 3.52 M33-4 firmware.

[Codaz]

Can you upload these somewhere ? I might switch over to 3.71 m33.

i noticed no difference between versions
it is working for me like always
all versions got the same amount of sattelites
and connecting is also the same
it only depents day by day, one day is faster then the other day

but maybe its just me
tommorow i try 2 versions 1 with 3.0 and 1 with 3.71
and see if there is a difference in time and connection

[coach777]

Here is the version of PRX files for firmwares:
3.52M33 (fat)
3.60M33 (slim)
3.71M33 (fat\slim)

[PDG]

I used this Psar Dumper from M33:
http://www.psp-hacks.com/2007/09/14/m33-new-psardumper-released/

Then i Downloaded This Official 3.71 Upgrade:
http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1259

I Unzipped the Psar dumper and tossed in the folder newpsardumper in my GAME352 folder on my Fat PSP running Firmware 3.52 m33-4 and the Official 3.71 Firmware i put in my Memstick Root folder, then i ran the Psardumper and selected ( Dump All - SQUARE )

After a while i had a new folder on my Memorystick called F0

In the F0 folder i stepped in to the folder kd
Then i selected usbacc.prx + usbgps.prx and copied them to my MapThis folder :)

Attatched the PSP-290 on my SLIM running 3.71 M33 and launched MapThis v0.5 and it worked fine.

The files are Encrypted so just following my guides and enabling USB for Flas0 does not really work because you only get Encrypted files wich has to be "Decrypted" *See it as a Locked and Unlocked file!*

Attatched my Dumped and Decrypted 3.71 .prx files to this reply :) *Enjoy*


Edit:
Ive uploaded a Video on YouTube of my Slim running MapThis v0.5 and 3.71 M33 with the .PRX files from the official 3.71 Fw.

[Codaz]

Thanks man !

[PDG]

Thanks man !

No worries, im always happy to help out a fellow coder or user :thumbup:

The PSP slim was kinda neet, but i miss the 1.50 kernel support *Sigh* :(

Well Well...

[johoo]

and it worked fine.
*

glad to here youve got it
i dumped the psar with the circle option,i think the square option will do the same

i tryed the version of the 3.0 prx and 3.71 prx(dumped)
and must say that the 3.0 got 1 fix more than the 3.71 and also it looks like its a little faster in finding satellites ,the amount of them is the same
in 3.71 i got 4-5 fixes and in 3.0 5-6 fixes
and about 10 satt. total voor both versions
and 1 fix more means more stable ;)

anybody tests the holux version on 3.71M33 ?
Is it running ?

It was probably due to less clouds blocking sats :)
There is no diffrence in locking on to sats what ive noticed.
Same result if you sit woth two PSP units running a 290 and diffrent .prx files from 3.0 and up.

its just pure luck :)

I'm wondering this too. I have a PSP Slim with CFW 3.71 M33 and am thinking about getting a Holux M-1000. Will Map This work on its own, with eloader, or not at all?

[asics64]

so for the fat psp with cfw 3.71.Do i need to set the kernel to 1.5 ?

I am still in the process of figuring out the new pin layout..
I posted a little serial comm test program (just source code) at ps2dev forums which should work in 3.71.. so if anyone feels like contributing - feel free to compile and test it (playing with new psp-remote cable plug)...

[deniska]

Here is the version of PRX files for firmwares:
3.52M33 (fat)
3.60M33 (slim)
3.71M33 (fat\slim)

BTW, all this "additional prx files" nonesense is going to be gone in the next official release (thanks to Nieko's hints)

Man! I can't wait. When do you think this will be out Deniska.

I could be wrong though.

can someone confirm about 3.71 M33 + 1.50 kernal fat psp working with holux gps? since the 1.50 kernal is out. i want to make sure before i upgrade mine.
thank you

[specialist83]

Follow my tuts, but i think 3.71 M33-2 would be a better FW to try getting it to work on.

Do a little searching in the forums.

3.71 m33-2 and mapthis .501 works flawlessy make sure to chekc ot my signature..

[thezarik]

Hello!
I have searched this PRX files in my flash0 and I haven't found it. I have a fat psp with firmware 3.71
Before, I have my psp on 3.40 and the mapthis worked properly but now, without this prx files the mapthis don't recognise my GPS-290. Someone could upload the prx files in the flash0??? Thanks for your atention. Write me soon. Regards!!

[ich²]

Use the new Mapthis Holux. You don´t need the 2 files.

[Nieko]

ich² means version 0.5.05 or higher, which indeed don't require you to extract PRX files anymore. You still do need the PSP-290/FW3.xx version, not the Generic/FW1.00 version. (The latter is for use with Holux devices on fat PSP.)

[thezarik]

Is it normal that I don't have this files in my flash0??

[Nieko]

That's not normal, every new firmware should have them. Map This! may also not work properly with PSP-290 if those two files (usbacc.prx and usbgps.prx) are not present in your firmware.

If that's the case, you should reconsider reinstalling your firmware.

[accuracy]

Is it normal that it takes me about 20 minutes to get a lock and decent satellite tracking on my PSP?

I have psp290 , 3.71 m33-4, w/ v5.20

[Nieko]

20 minutes is really long, but it does depend on your location and speed. It seems you get the quickest fix outside with plenty of visible sky while standing still. Moving faster or indoors will take longer, if you get a fix at all.

If all fails, you could buy an extension cable from PC Mobile, it works wonders :). I used to get fixes in 3-4 minutes (using PSP-290), that's now down to 30-40 seconds.

what do you mean by extension cable? you mean like female miniusb to male miniusb sort of thing?

Yes, see http://www.pc-mobile.net/pspue1.htm.
