PSP: Dark_AleX releases 3.71 M33-2 & 1.50 Kernel Addon v2

PSX2PSP Popstation GUI 1.2 is what I use. Couldn't be easier. Just browse to the ISO or eboot file and add whatever artwork you like or none at all, and it converts it.

I don't think you can convert eboots to be compatible with certain popstations, in fact, I'm sure you can't unless there's someone out there who makes patches or something to make them work with certain firmware.

As for save data, I don't use it but my guess is yes.

I'm still on M33-4 but will upgrade shortly. I'm hoping a plugin or workaround of some kind will let us load different pops with the newer firmware.

can it be installed on 3.71 official firmware.

cuz I cannot use pandora to downgrade my official firmware.

Short answer: no. Pandora is your only option for homebrew on a PSP running official firmware versions higher than 3.50.

Wow... Good things do come to those who wait. This is perfect. Love the new Firmware additions. Now I'm on 3.71 M33-2 w/1.50 addon. Thanks CFW Team.

I wanted to report back that I finally fixed this PSP

This is what I found.

1. I tried using a "clean_part_fatpsp.image" NAND file to fix partition errors that might be causing the problem.
As it turned out this didnt fix the problem because this was not the problem to begin with.
I am still very gratefull for being given the file as a tool to help trouble shoot the problem.

2. The problem was that I had a corrupted Cemetary2 memory stick.

I rebuilt the Cemetary2 memory stick from scratch instead of converting an original Pandora memory stick.

I then flashed one of my first 3.52M33 NAND backups with the original NAND partitions.
Then I installed 3.71M33 using the newly created Cemetary2 memory stick.

Now everything works just as it should.
(3.71M33-2 Yea!)

I never suspected the firmware.
I have always though it is was a problem with the PSP or the process.

Anyone having problems with Cemetary2 not being able to:

1. format flash0 using Cemetary2 to install 3.71M33
2. format flash1 using Cemetary2 to install 3.71M33
3. get a white screen and power off brick using Cemetary2 install 3.71M33

Should first try recreating Cemetary2 stick from scratch instead of converting an existing Pandora memory stick.
Then try fixing the NAND partitions.

Please note that I had this problem before I started using Cemetary2 to try and upgrade to 3.71M33.
The only way I could get 3.71M33 on this PSP successfully was by using Cemetary2

Thanks for not flaming.

So does the format flash1 option in recovery work OK for you now?

hey, i dont want to sound noobish but, seeing as there all this 1.50 kernel kerfuffle and stuff, you can still use a recovery pack and go back to 1.50 or sum cfw if 3.71 doesnt tickle your fancy right??

Of course.
