I used to be really into the entire PSP scene, when there was a new release i knew about it. Unfortunately i used the official playstation forums as my choice to keep up with the latest homebrew news.
As some of you may or may not know, sony no longer allows discussion of homebrew on their forums (and haven't for quite some time now).
As such, i really didn't have an immediate way to keep up with news. So now i decided to get my PSP up to date, and so i have a few questions before i do, beucase it seems as though alot of things have happened since i have left.
Anyone kind enough to answer my questions i would greatly appreciate it...
1. Why is dark alexs' site now merged with M33s?
2. I currently have 3.52M33-4 is it worth updating to their latest 3.71M33 firmware?
3. I read the readme and it doesn't say anything about needing the 1.50 eboot anymore, do i still need it or is it somehow no longer necessary?
4. I see something about some package (El Despertar del Cementerio v3) that supposidly comes with 3.71M33-2, what exactly is this package besides an unbricker? how does it work and why can't i just use recovery menu to do the same thing?
5. Why does the readme tell me that the 3.71M33 update uses the actual sony updater, can anyone explain to me exactly how they managed to get that working? And if possible, WHY they are using the official sony updater instead of their own?
6. Last but not least, whatever all of these new developments are (new unbricker, different installer, different patches during installation to fix idstorage keys etc) have the odds of bricking increased at all since 3.52M33? do all of these new features increase my chances or are they about the same as long as i follow instructions?
I know this could be found with a search, that i am aware of, however if someone knows the answers to these questions this would REALLY help me out beucase im completely clueless after just 2 months of complete absence.
