MapThis w/ 3.90m33

[harryk]

I upgraded tonight because I'd been running on 3.71 for awhile, and didn't think twice about it until I tested MapThis.

Could anyone shed some light on getting MapThis to work with 3.90m33?

I have a feeling it's something specific with the USB.prx file needed.

for reference, I'm using the sony psp-290 (official gps unit).

cheers,
harryk

how do you get the m33 3.90 update? can send me the link? i wan to try make a GPS and USB prx file but now i dont hav m33 3.90.

[kohht]

lols i just did an update on my psp from 3.71 to 3.90 but went later,i found out that the file was rename as 3.80 and not 3.90. even i go fomat my stick,it still the same,and after that , i try use M33_NEWPSARDUMPER,it say that the Psar was too big,recomplie another bigger buffer. anyone can help this problem?

[johoo]

mapthis 0.5.20 doesn't need any prx
it's loaded from the firmware
and works fine on 3.90
but mapthis need to be putted in the map GAME380 map
and when u rename it to GAME390 it does not work
when u format youre memstick u also get a 380 map
and not 390
i think dax forgot this to change

[kohht]

thx alot johoo =]] now i get it .but there still a problem.. after i upgrade my psp to 390m33 , went it get fix, my Gps-290 start to haveing problem.. look.. went i was waiting someone,the GPS show the speed is 54Km but the map was not moving.. after that i found the problem, the GPS was getting some error, after i saw that problem, i talk off the GPS and then after that the Speed was Drop to 0Km. after a few sec, i put back one more time, it came again the problem and the speed show 53Km but the map is not moveing and the car.. so itiz still unstabe with 390 m33 or it may come this problem sometime? thx

[johoo]

i have no problem at all with mapthis it works fine
it runs stable and no crashes
and speed stays at zero

psp fat-3.90m33 +1.50-mapthis 0.5.20-compressed map 1.9gb

try to format youre memstick and install everything again

[harryk]

you mentioned that the speed stays at zero, meaning it never shows current speed or it returns to zero when you're stopped?

Also, thankyou for the tip about the corrected directory. I had chosen not to format my stick, and as such didn't have a current GAME380 directory (still 371). Seems to be working just fine, thanks all.

Deniska, great work!

I have 2 psp's. I have the fat and slim and both are now on 3.90 m33 firmware. I just bought a GPS 290 and running mapthis 5.20 and have created the map. Everything runs perfectly except I get no reading off the GPS.... It has 5 bars on the bottom right hand corner which is showing a red outline on the "box" of the signal. I presume it means 0 signal strength. I hit start and checked to see if any satellites are tracking me and shows "0"..... I have followed the sticky on this site to setup the memory stick and maps to a "T" but doesn't seem my gps signal is coming thru. could this be my gps receiver? Oh .. I set the serial port to = "0" for gps 290 as stated... any clues?

[Nieko]

Have you read http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Map_This! also?

[lostingps]

Thanks Nieko.... great source of info... I got it working!!! The speed though seems to be off... but at least it is running!

[Nieko]

How does the speed seem to be off? A speedometer in a car usually indicates too much, and I find GPS works more precisely then.

[kohht]

hmm.. i think is aright now.. =]] thx alot

hm..

Actually, I read figured it out ... It was set to Miles instead of KM. I fixed it by editing in the CONFIG.TXT Thanks :)

[lostingps]

This is a question to anyone that can help.... I have 2 psp's, 1 slim, 1 fat. Both are working excellent with mapthis 5.20 on 3.90 m33. My friend brought over his fat PSP which I also put to 3.90 m33. Only diff is that his is a TA-082 motherboard...so here is the question... the GPS state in the GPS info screen shows "off" I swapped his mem card and GPS290 with mine (working) & vice-versa. Everything works perfectly on mine but his is still off no matter what combo I try. I know the usb...prx's are not req for 5.20 as the gps290 is detected by firmware. How do I get it to turn on??

[juan2320]

It can be your friends keys are not good.
Try to use this KeyCleaner-v1.4

[yonasz]

I have same problem after i start with mapthis5.20 i try with old version and gps was ok (both in 3.90m33). But now its allways off in 5.20 and in old version of map this... How i can fix it i never use keycleaner and everything was ok...
EDIT I fix it :) @Lostingps put map this in GAME folder and gps will be work fine :) In GAME380 its allways off. BTW sorry for my english....

[kabura]

Hmm I just upgraded from 3.80 M33 to 3.9 M33. Mapthis! worked fine on the previous CFW, but now on 3.90 it's having trouble loading the USB bus driver. I can still view my maps, but the GPS is disabled. Any clue on how I can fix this?

[a420pyro]

I too have a Fat 3.90m33 & PSP-290 with/mb TA-082 and cant get the GPS State to turn ON! :confused: I looked at a lot of posts, read http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Map_This! still nothing... I can get it to load up with no problems. Says every things ok at the load up open up.. I open my map, and go to the sat info page and off every time....

i have tryed putting MapThis! 5.20 in "ms0:/PSP/GAME/" "ms0:/PSP/GAME150/" "ms0:/PSP/GAME390/" "ms0:/PSP/GAME380/" the MapThis! only loads with no problems when its in the "PSP/GAME" In my m33 config i have game folder set as 3.90 mode..
If you have 3.90 m33 please tell me how you got yours up...

*attach is pic of it loading up

[Nieko]

Mine is working just fine. You could try again with the original release, not making any changes, or with mine (see my sig). There are some config changes between the two, perhaps you can get more clues from those.

The most common solution is btw. checking your keys, as also explain on the Wikibook. If you haven't try that yet, do that first.

[a420pyro]

i have ran the KeyCleaner-v1.4
it says something about "0x0041... failed this key is a copy of key 0x0006" can this be the problem? i will try with a fresh mem stick..

[deniska]

Judging by the screenshot - you are crushing on loading inet modules..
see if WIFI is enabled (WIFI=1) in config.
If so - try disabling it

Just wanted to say that I got my pandora battery in the mail this week, upgraded to 3.90 m33v_2 with 1.50 kernel, installed mapthis! and now have the coolest gps device ever! Thanks to everyone for their help and their hard work! It took me a while to get everything working, but once I figured it out I was so happy! Thanks!

it was the 0x0041 key i replace it now my GPS is ON :thumbup:

Thanks for all your hard work!

[kabura]

I also ran keycleaner v1.4 and it said all my keys were fine. My usb driver is still not loading, however. I have a slim PSP on 3.9 M33-3 if that helps. I tried to open up Flash1 to see if the prx's are there and they are. Any clue why I am having this trouble?

I had the same problem as you until I disabled my plugins.

[Boss_psp]

I have 3.90 M33-3 installed and Using Mapthis v 0.5.2

I was able to create a big map of greater toronto area using Global Map download tool 0.5.05b but when i open that map using mapthis on my psp, the moment I click on zoom button the map freezes and in few seconds it shuts down the psp.

Small map worked fine but other two maps which are slightly bigger not TOO big... they both freeze.

Any idea anyone?
Thanks.

[Nieko]

How big is "too big" in your case? I have a map of the Netherlands with 8 zoom levels (10..3), and it works fine. You could try some of the tips on the Map This! wikibook if you haven`t done that yet.

[eep2mc]

Does anyone know how to get sony psp ver 3.8 work with 290-GPS? I tried all the instructions in the web still could not get this gadget to work? Help!

[Nieko]

It would help a lot if you were to mention what exactly you're doing, which instructions you followed, if you even have custom firmware, etc.

"All the instructions in the web" is way too vague.

Oh, and have you read the Wikibook on Map This!?

[sky123]

hi

thanks
