1.50 Kernel Add-on for 3.71 M33 Released

[legitnelite]

Because of this update, I've successfully installed 3.71 M33 and the 1.5 kernel patch.

I've noticed that after installing everything, my 1.5 homebrew games each have a corrupted file under them. To test this out, I ran a 1.5 homebrew game successfully. But after deleting the corrupted icon under it, it didn't run..


Weird.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, the corrupted icon is probably one of the two folders you'd usually put in your GAME150 folder for 1.5 homebrew games.... yup
yes in fact that's what it is, as I've checked the date added for both files and they match up

EDIT2: to get around these corrupted icons (since they're annoying) go to your recovery menu and select hide corrupt icons, all finished! enjoy

Amazing.. The only thing that could make this better would be some how finding a way to get 1.5 kernel to work on PSP Slim or some how incorporating N00bz eLoader v1.000 into 3.71 M33. If its even possible..

Yesterday 3.03OE-C, today 3.71M33+1.5

All working fine here.

So now is there any downside to having 3.71 M33 rather than 3.40 OE? I've been waiting to upgrade because a bunch of small things but now I think I am ready. Are there any other small things that might make me not want to upgrade?

Reporting a bug.

After installing this update.. I can't use Custom Themes! When I go to Setting -> Theme Settings -> Theme, and try to apply one, I'm getting an error:

An internal error has ocurred.
(80108351)

I've installed this and have yet to come to a problem....

ive tried all the theme's and every one of them has worked... ( official and un-official )

This does not work!!!

The game could not be started
(80020148)

yes i am using 3.71. Whats going wrong?

if your refering to homebrew....ive also tried homebrew out ( the first thing i did ) and all my homebrew works so far.

i updated from 3.52 M33-4... dunno if that will mean anything just wondering how yall are getting these errors..

Thanks for Everything,
PSPdemon

For PSP Fat:

Homebrew not starting:
Disable hard reset on homebrew:



If your having problems storing Wallpaper or Running themes:
Wallpaper, Themes not saving, working...
Check F1

Bad F1:
Contains the registry folder and files needed but nothing else...


Most of these folders are empty and can easily be recreated.
They are used to store user information like themes, wallpaper and so on...
I know recreating the folders solves the Wallpaper, and Theme problems (80108351)
This should also fix GPS and HTTP settings problems but I have not tested them.

Good F1:



This is the file structure that can be recreated manually:
f1:\gps\
f1:\net\http
f1:\registry <- again this does get recreated along with the system.dreg / .ireg -no need to mess with it.
f1:\updater <- contains a log file that is probably unnecessary... folder is probably not needed.
f1:\vsh\theme

All of the above are folders.
For instance "theme" is a folder inside the "vsh" folder...
Without these folders you can set a Wallpaper but can not keep it after the PSP is restarted.

And There is at least one file and folder that could be missing: atokl0.dat
f1:\dic\atokl0.dat <- folder nor dat file exist, I don't know what this is used for.


Warning: For those upgrading to 3.71M33 because it can use homebrew now.
There is a possible BSOD Full Brick after using Recovery F1 formatter (Format flash1 and reset settings)
Or by accessing "Themes" after an upgrade to 3.71M33 without Restoring System Defaults in the XMB first.

How to avoid the BSOD brick:

Press Circle at the BSOD and its basically over... full brick.
Instead power off the PSP and then back on again, instead of bricking the PSP reboots to defaults.
Edit:
legitnelite suggested that pressing Start instead of shutting down the PSP works just as well.

This workaround is not perfect:
By skipping the Circle reboot not all Files and Folders on F1 are recreated after the format:
Setting a wall paper fails to work after a reboot
Using custom themes results in a (80108351) error
I am sure other user settings will not work right away.
Recreate the folders as necessary on F1 to store user information
