3.71 m33-2 tried to kill my psp.. :(
Ok, so I am not flamming m33 firmwares, but it almost f*cked my psp. You guys know that I don't have an analog stick. Joysens 1.3 just released, so I tried playing daedalus with it. But I needed 3.71 m33 to play the plugin in 1.50 games.
So I updated from 3.40 oe-a to 3.52 m33, the to 3.52 m33-4 and then to 3.71 m33. I heard that it didn't have the 1.50 kernal, so I search google to find the kernel. I found kernel 1.50-2 and 3.71 m33-2. So I just download the kernel and start playing without problems. It was running like a ferari.
Then, I wanted to update from 3.71 m33 to 3.71 m33-2. I updated without problem. Next day I turn it on and tried to play daedalus. When I boot it, there was a problem. It's show game couldn't start. So I went to recovery mode and then changed the hombrew game folder from 1.5 to 3.71.
It worked, so I boot it again. I enter the setting and launch super mario 64, and then press the note button to turn on the plugin... but it shows the menu. I tried again like 5 times, but no fix. Then I turn it off and it doesn't work, then I went to recovery menu and I reformat the flash 1... and still the problem was there.
Next day I decided play Final Fantasy VII. I put it in the place where it's suppost to be. I launch it without problem. But something wrong happened. It launched the pops menu... so I decided reset game. I reseted it and wait for the PlayStation logo to launch, but it only hang there. I leave it like 5 minutes and then I decided take off the battery.
... I was like f*ck, this firmware sucks! Then I search in google to find a person with the same problem, but nothing came out. Then I decided to downgrade via recovery menu, but it didn't work. I was nervouse so I tried to find in google a way to downgrade. I found the pandora battery and the "magic" memory stick can downgrade or unbrick ANY firmware. So I decided to do that.
I followed the instructuion, until the step 3. I had to create the magic MS. It just corrupted my memory stick, so every save file I had was gone... :( (The 100s hours it took me to go to the dick 3 in final fantasy 7 was gone). I was so f*cking mad and sad because of that.
Then I found captain moragn thread, It says that you could downgrade the 3.71 m33 easy and save. I asked him if it works in 3.71 m33-2 and he said yes, so I tried it and it really worked, until I want to system setting and see if it really downgraded. It just gave me and internal error and then "the blue screen of dead" appeared. I pressed o to fix the corruoted files.
So I did it and went back to 1.50 normally. I was so happy... I tried to install 3.03 oe-c, but I decided 3.10 (I have DBZ SB2). I installed 3.10 oe-c and I was so happy because I could now play ps1 games.
I launched Final Fantasy VII and it happed the same thing, the menu and black screen. I thought it was a pops problem in 3.10, so I updated to 3.40.
I tried to launch it, but the problem still where there. I installed popsloader and chose 3.03 pops, and now I couldn't launch the game. It just gave me "game couldn't start", so I want to recovery menu and disable popsloader, and tried again. Still the menu problem and black screen.
I tried to convert the iso to eboot.pbp again and it didn't work. So I decided play tony hawk from my UMD. It was working normal... until I accidently pressed the note button and then the menu came out, I was like OMFG!! WHAT THE F*CK IS WRONG WITH THIS PSP?!?!?!
I think 3.71 m33-2 corrupted an internal file and I can't fix it. Does anyone have this problem?? or do you know a way to fix this without pandora?
Why D_A had to finish OE series and start this m33, OE was great. Maybe It was because of legal reasons... I don't know.
Thanks for anyone that read this, I apreciate it:thumbup:
