thanks guys. appreciate it. never realised that it was able to run the same stuff as 1.5 oh my god i am soooooo excited.

ok. 2nd favour. can someone tell me what i need to do to get it running then? i dont want to read 500+ posts over several threads. really appreciate it guys.

clean your 1.50 from flash mods [might not be needed, but best to be safe]

download 3.02OE-a

follow the readme

download 3.02 OE-b
follow the readme!

download a popstation GUI from somewhere, there is a big choice now...
follow the readme!

the readm files tell you everything you need to know, i cant offer any more help than that...its easy!

Wow, I get back from hols to a very exciting surprise. Only problem is, I have been following the above readme, and when I open up the oeupdmaker file on my PSP, it says it cannot open 1.50 PBP.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Make sure you have the 1.5 and 3.02 upgrades and you renamed them.

I love 3.02 but I regret it a bit. I lost 6 homebrew games. Serve N' Go, Laserix 2, and Tile World all came up as corrupt data, Hexen freezes when booting, Commander Keen freezes when exiting, and Rise of the Triad tries to boot and the fails...

Im thinking of upgrading to this 3.02oe-b but im wondering if eventually we can use the prx files from 3.02oe-b and use them with devhook so that we can use the psx emulator. I may wait to see if it is cracked.

Enjoy it, it really is excellent

Now back to FFIX.....

I used DevHook and it doesn't even compare to 3.02 SE-B. I promise! Plus, running games through DevHook makes the games run slower as I noticed a couple of days ago.
Man, I can't even begin to tell you how much I cherished my 1.5 Firmware. I downgraded to it twice! When 2.71 SE-B and SE-C came out, It hought, eh, I don't think it's worth it. So, I pretty much just blew off the entire custom firmware scene. That was, until I found out that the new 3.02 OE-B ran PSP ISOs and PSX ISO! I was like, no GD way! So I upgraded using the simple installer and then added the PSX update. Man, I'd have to say that I'm having the best time on my PSP I have ever had. I can play PSX games like Castlevania - Symphony of the Night, Chrono Cross and Legend of Mana. Plus, I can copy my games and put them on my memstick to actually play the games without even using the UMD! (I hope you can see the possibilities here!) In other words, if you upgrade, you get all the coll stuff about the 1.5 firmware, the extras of a 3.02 firmware and you then can play any Playstation game you can think of, all on your PSP. I'm still excited!! Dude, if you need help, e-mail me or IM me and I'll even hook you up with some cool stuff to get you started! It's easy!!

Sorry if I seem like an idiot here, but I'm lost.

FWIW, I'm running a 1.5, with no upgrades.

The first step is to make sure to gt the eboots for 1.50 update and 3.02 update. Even though you have 1.50, you need to download it, and the 3.02 update because one of the steps asks you to put it in a certian folder.

Here is the step I am referring to:

"- Get the 1.50 and 3.02 sony updaters in the oeupdmaker folder with the names "150.PBP" and "302.PBP"."
