Team M33 is back | 3.52 M33-3 Released!

I updated and it works fine. However I get little scared by reading this thread. I never visited PS3NEWS, but I guess it must be really simple to make a proggy (virus) that does this automatically and then causes a a bunch of bricks. Also, someone mentioned that some other sites may cause PSP to brick too, which are those?

I will go back to 3.52 M33 to be sure as I love my homebrew PSP very much. No dis-respect to the M33, I just don´t want a brick because I missed out on some info in the homebrew scene, which I do quite often. Personally I think it would be enough to stop the XMB from working or similiar, not a total brick.


BTW: The home-menu is very nice, and would be even nicer with "reboot"-function and some way to change clockspeed in games. Then I would not need Custom Firmware Extender no more.

Hey, it can't hurt.

And as for you mr-my-psp-will-not-turn-off, hold the power switch up until it turns off.

Yep tryed this and still no go..(she's A Brick)

Seems like there is a lot of confusion about that release.

Taken from PSPX.RU: License.txt is provided for ENGLISH speaking users only. The only thing Russian users should know - do not modify the installer that may result with a brick.

Meaning they are not evil or planing some plot to take control over all PSPs in the world. That is an action to fight back and make life of certain people harder.

In one word forget about bookmarks, history, cache or site membership. Download unmodified installer from trusted source. And you will be just fine.

As a side note. For all of you with TA0082 who have black screen after the update. Press the screen brightness button. Sometimes update switch off the screen.

Thanks for that info! I just read the same at PSP-Hacks :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I am really confused about this entire updating thing. Maybe I'll just pass on a few extra features and stick with a fully working psp, rather than risk something this controversial.

So unless someone can give me some serious evidence this thing works, because i'm not going to risk it.

As a very vocal voice against the fact there's a bricker, take it from me that the dl from here or my site works.

What controversial?

There will be no more "editable" CFW.

Why ppl hexing cfw for?
Sum1 change sumthin, they get brick. Serve them right.

Dun blame on the dev, blame it on ps3n00b. Coz of em, we get this whole "bricking/unsafe" fiasco. The fact is, M33-3 update is totally safe. If ppl dun agree their term, dun use it.

Really I hope all cfw (future) devs follow suit like M33's & make their cfw super secure.

use the ORIGINAL eboot from M33 - it'll worked perfectly just like my set...

and those ppl who are still sooooo scared even after so many ppl had explained this situation...put down your psp now and go bang your head on the wall...

i'm afraid we have reached a bit of a turning point in the state of custom firmware and it scares me. I was once a visitor to the *banned site*, i even made the occasional blog post. then i become privy to some of their more shady actions [so i stopped going] and now i have to worry about my psp getting bricked.

so because i've got an account, an account i don't even use anymore, i have to live in fear? wow, and i thought i could get away from this kind of thing on the internet. so because i didn't know what kind of site they were originally, i have to be lumped into this collective pot of evil doers and bad guys? well i'm sorry their website doesn't explain that they do truly terrible things before i started using it. i'm sorry that i didn't fine dcemu till after i found the 'other' site.

i don't condone theft. even before the leak, the flow of information hasn't appeared to be truly hampered, and now it like we are being forced into choosing sides. i don't want to choose sides. hell writing this is probably going to get me into trouble.

i feel like my one of my last real freedoms in life has been taken away from me.
