I agree, I hate forums but found that dcemu was pretty straight.... I try to read every post to get an idea of what everyone thinks but what is with this double posting and quoting everything then bitching about it... I try to ignore The EX because I find him extremely annoying but every other post is him being a smart ass... lame:(Quote:

Right, I've just read the readme and the licence.
This is my interpretation.
It is basically scaremongering - There is little chance of them being able to check your PC browser from your PSP.
However, they can however check your PSP browser - so I wouldn't visit that site.
The_Ex actually has a valid point - and you are all being immature, although The_Ex is feeding the children ammo :p
They have every right to say what to do or not to do with their software.
On a related fact, did you know that you can't use iTunes if you work in chemical or nuclear weapons?
OMG APPLE IS TRYIN 2 CONTRL US WOE BE ME.

Wow, what an incredible waste of time it has been scanning the 13 pages of this thread. Usually these release threads are informative, full of appreciation, and can offer assurance to the skeptical people who are nervous about installing CFW.
Until this release, I updated religiously to M33. Even though I don't visit the lame site that may cause problems, I don't agree that such malicious triggers should be implemented into CFW.
This just says in bold capital letters, "SONY, YOU ARE RIGHT! HOMEBREW POSES A SECURITY THREAT TO THE PSP". If true, this just gives SONY reason to say, "I told you so".
I don't know if this is just rumor or what, but until M33 accepts the majority of homebrew fans are against this and releases a new update that won't pose such a risk, I may just stick with 3.52 M33-2.
I love CFW updates but I will wait this one out and see how events play out.
I just have one question, what is soo back about wisiting that site? What's gonna be next, your browser must have visited our site or the updated will cause your psp not to start?wtf is wrong with them?
I assume this is aimed at me, so allow me to comment.Quote:

I cannot understand how my fellow homebrew enthusiasts are condoning this.
kids nowadays sure spend lots of their time wasting life quarreling on the net...i rem when i was a teenager i dun even use the computer much other than some icq chats...lol
if u have even the slightest fear of bricking cos of using homebrews...here's an advice...upgrade to official 3.52 and i guarantee u'll be totally safe... =)
Yes i used my normal email to sign up.
And what do you mean they hex edited it.
Nothing looked out of the ordinary.
Site looks normal.
Actually loaded super fast.
O well.
O and remember

It means they hack it for their own personal gain.Quote:

Like i said on the other post:
PS3** = CRC 69D9BB45 (hacked)
M33-3 = CRC 0B473377 (original)
I really hope u dun run this CRC 69D9BB45. Even if u do & escape bricking, then congrats to u. :(
me too:rofl:Quote:

I don't know how this whole trouble with this site started, but can we please just get back to hating qj.net.
It would be better for everyone.
ok im not reading through all this garbo. can i or can i not host this at my site? my site is in no way "criminal" or anything else like that.
Yeah, and what's the final verdict? Does this contain triggers that "could" cause a brick if x, y, or z conditions were met. Or were a few people just scaremongering?Quote:

Well matey, when u upgrade with the "official" M33 update, you will see a warning & sum notes on the s/w or stuff like README file, etc.Quote:

For sure they are not suckin ur pennies. They do earn sumthin from the advertisements where ppl visiting their site. No prob with that. The prob is their ethic. Leave the file intact & no1 gets a brick. So it is THEIR fault, not M33 team.
Upload the original, get a direct link to their site & mention abt if visitor can helping them with sum donation. Check their site for that paypal link.Quote:

Let scarph browse ps2news site with his PSP. Wait till he screamed then u know. :D
You can't edit with hexadecimal editor the eboot.
Can't edit the eboot with nothing
.
If the eboot is editted , PSP bricked.
So, I used this update on my first PSP just fine. No problems there.
Then I run it on my second psp. As far as I know I have never visited the ps3 site on my psp, or on my computer. But it bricked. I sure hope M33 has a workaround for this. Otherwise they are very much risking the psp's of innocents. I'm pretty freaking pissed my second psp is now useless.

lol :rofl: (i mean that'd be terrible :D ) i still can't my head around why m33 could just stop the installer from workin rather than brick, oh well i guess i'll just wait n see... by the way does anyone no wut words are block in the internet thing like if any site mention ps3news then its gonna brick it? oh n is team wildcard ever gonna release a 3.52?
Where did u get the update?Quote:

with the usb device thing
is that like a once you plug in the usb cable it connects.
they used to have this on way older cfw's and i really miss it
Granted the last time I tried an ISO of a UMD Movie was with devhook, but I never had a problem with it. Why is it so exciting that it works now?
I'm much more happy with the vsh menu via the home button :D

Wats ur last cfw?
1st PSP working then u musta made sum bad move on ur 2nd.
I'm confused when I tried to update I took a while to read what it was saying before I pressed X to update. I then pushed it but I didn't see it say update successful, it reset and I thought it didn't update, so I ran it again and it said I already updated. If it did update it updated VERY fast like 1-3 seconds, I have a 4GB memory stick. I'm not a PS3News person or whatever that site is so no problems there. Anyway I checked my system settings and it says I'm at 3.52-3 and in the recovery menu I have the XMB device new features and stuff so everything looks fine. But it's wierd I can't get my XMB to run at 333mhz (I can tell using the PRXInfo plugin), it's set right in the recovery menu. And when I tried to access the recovery menu like 2 times it wouldn't pop up just the regular PSP start, so my PSP has been acting very wierd. Can anyone tell me how I can get back to 3.52-2 so I can try to update again?
ps- For PSX games what pops version should I use, I think I should choose "original from flash" but I'm not sure.
I'd recover back to 1.50 and reinstall M33 3.52 from there, then apply this patch. It's supposed to install in just a couple of seconds.Quote:

I've never had to get back to 1.5 from a CFW how do I do this, you don't have to baby me though I know a good amount of what I'm doing.
Get 3.02 OE-A. In it is a RECOVERY folder. Put the folder in ms0:/PSP/GAME with the update eboot you want to downgrade to, for example 1.50. Rename the update eboot to UPDATE.PBP. Then choose the option from the recovery menu to launch the recovery process and go back to 1.50. Now you can update back to 3.52 M33, and install this patch. :)Quote:

i feel for those of you who will brick because you dont realise what sites are banned. i wont be updating now i know for a fact that there will be some brickage, and even worse is you have to agree to it before hand. would you agree to have your left leg chopped off for the ability to play the latest firmware update? i wouldnt.
Almost any downgrader will work because what they do install a clean 1.50 from a cleared flash0. I prefer using the 3.03 downgrader, just don't follow the instructions that much. For example, put all the files you need on there, and instead of running GTA, just run the X.Y.Z Update from the XMB because your on a CFW, you have Homebrew enabled. Its not an issue of getting it to run, its just....running it. lol.Quote:

It only bricks if the eboot has been hex edited, if you download it from a site like ps3news. It does not check your browser history, nor your PSP browser history.
That is the only INTENTIONAL brick caused by this update.
And to answer some people's questions, yes WildC*rd will release a 3.52 firmware sometime.
