im too scared to try this on my 2nd psp, tried it on the 1st one, pushed off switch by accident
im on reverse devhook now

[hart91]

right, done it.....I'm now on 2.71SE-B but I can't get the update patch for SE-B" to run....when I go to Game on the XMB it just freezes????? not sure what is going on with that can anyone help

Many thanks to kramer for all his help so far!!!

Many thanks to kramer for all his help so far!!!

No probs dude.

theres a bug in the first release of SE-B that freezes the game menu if you dont have a folder in the root of your memory stick called ISO. So create that folder and you will be good to update and once you've updated the bug will be gone.

[hart91]

well, after much downloading, flashing (sweating) and valuable help from kramer...(many thanks dude!) I am now the proud owner of a psp with 2.71SE-B" firmware , and let me you, for those of you trying to make up your minds.....this firmware ROCKS!!! , and with VCS(UMD) arriving tomorrow, times ahead are looking really SWEET!

GO ON!! you know you want to, Dark Alex and many other talented people have done the hard work so you don't have to!!!!!

[potatoman]

can i ask, whats the point of the " at the end, does it do anything extra or what?
i mean does 2.71 se-b differ from 2.71 se-b"

[hart91]

yes, it does differ starting with SE-A and then SE-B(1) revised versions SE-B'(2) & SE-B"(3). there are some key fixes in the revised versions, the thing I was after was being able to play GTA VCS from the original UMD without having to (a)dump an image file or (b) update my firmware beyond homebrew enabled limits.
