V3N0M's PSP Custom Firmware Reference

[Chameleon]

Dang I already did it , I didnt look at the previous posts... my bad.

Eiffle56's 1.53 Custom Firmware/Expansion

Made to suit the 1.50 fanatics who were weary to upgrade to Dark Alex's
OE firmwares. It didnt have many ground breaking features that hadnt already
been implemented by Dax's proof of concept or Harleyg’s Custom firmware
except the loading of ISO and DAX files without the use of Devhook.


Revisions:

1.53 Custom Firmware

- Boot Menu
- Integrated uxMB
- You can start 1.00 style EBOOTS
- Loads ISO/DAX files
- You can hide corrupt data icons
- You can load your own plugins(PRX)
- Autoboot EBOOTs at startup
- Never turn off the backlight in XMB

Issues:

- You need an UMD inserted to load ISO/DAX files

Hey it's cool! You have a little more information than DarthPaul was able to find so in my book that's a success! Thank you very much for your help! Also I know a lot of people are not willing to do it but the best way to find out all the features and give a accurate summery on these custom firmware's is to test them. It easier to understand everything a custom firmware has to offer if you have had experience with that particular custom firmware.

On another note I've also decided to change the format a little. From now on any issues that have been fixed will be deleted. Only issues that..

1. Can't be fixed
2. Not yet fixed via update
3. Quick Fix

Examples:

1. M33 customizing the battery icon causes problems and only way to fix this is to use a decrypted 3.51 RCO because it is no longer compatible with anything older.

2. This was a similar problem OE Firmware had between 3.03OE and 3.10OE with the topmenu icons being incompatible with each other.

3. I suppose POPs would also fall under this category as they’re certain issues with POPs that need a work-a-round or can't be fixed between earlier and later versions of POPs.
( Which I could also use help with tracking down so we may add all of them to the list. I can only remember a few off the top of my head.. )

These exceptions only will remain on the issues list. The reason for this is we don't want the issues list being too overcrowded with issues that have either been fixed through an update or are no longer issues.

for undiluted platinum all there was released was a mix up for oe users... would you like me to report on that?

[V3N0M]

Feel free to report on any custom firmware you want. All I ask is that you keep to the format for your review of it and try to make sure the information is as accurate as possible. Thank you for all of your help! You've made this a whole lot easier on me!

EDIT: Ok I have updated the thread with all of the new information regarding Eiffle56's 1.53 Custom Firmware/Expansion. Thank you DarthPaul & Chameleon for the excellent work! :thumbup: Now I'm exhausted and could use a rest. ( I've had a long day of dirt biking and It's very late here in the USA lol ) So any new updates will need to wait until tomorrow. I'll try to update this thread as frequently as I can and over the next few days or so be updating the format a bit as well.

3.03/3.10 OE Mix-up (for Undiluted Platinum Modchip users only)

Released on February 18, 2007, 3.03/3.10 OE Mix-up in simple terms is an OE update
for Undiluted Platinum users to have both the vsh for 3.03 and the kernel of 3.10
to launch PSP and PSX games.

Revisions:

3.03/3.10 OE Mix-up

Features:

- Can customize 3.03 XMB
- When you execute a psp or psx game, or a homebrew, OE will switch the
nand to the psp one (containing 3.10 OE) automatically, so you will be
able to play psx and psp games in the higher firmware, and since it will
run on the psp nand, you won't have problems with psx games or with 333 Mhz
- When you recover from sleep mode, OE will also be back to the nand you were,
so you don't need to press L (in fact, you must not press it )
- You can access both flashes via usb in the recovery

Issues:

But that's not a real firmware.

For the expansions by Becus25 and Test30, you might want to write that they have stopped doing this at the moment because of the M33 team:

To the attention of becus25 and test30: Please do not do any of your releases based
from our firmwares. You steal and change name but contribute a tiny 20-line plugin.
You are a shame for psp development!

It would also be nice to have download links for all of the custom firmwares.

Well we could create one but most people continue with the recent ones

if he wants to add custom firmwares that can only be emulated, he could add the 2.71/2.81 dump for devhook lol
