Team M33 releases 3.71 CFW; M33 = Dark_AleX

[CaptainMorgan4]

Yo guys I accessed the Flash0 to put my TopMenu plugin (platnium icons) in and there is NO topmenu plugin to replace so what do I do? Do I put it in there or will that mess it up? I don't want to semi brick or anything so someone please help me asap.


edit: Okay I got impatient and now I think bricked, I can get recovery so, but yeah as I attempted to put the top_menu.rco file for the platnium icons in the Flash0/vsh/resource/ folder it said I replacing a top_menu RCO file but it wasn't actually visable on the screen so I couldn't copy one to backup the file. I replaced it and now my PSP will freeze after startup before the icons would show up and then after that it will only bring up a black screen then shut off. Can anyone please supply me with an original top_menu RCO file to get my PSP to startup again or tell me what I'm doing wrong to get these Platnium original icons to work on 3.71 M33.

I bought my PSP in Canada. PSP-1001 series. I am running 3.52 M33 but will this update work for my PSP or is this only for european PSP ?

If I were you, I would wait for the Game150 folder plugin, the installer says it does not included in the update, so we should wait until dark_alex "erm" M33 comes it in their site.

BTW, Ive known in the first place that dark_alex is m33, the clues are in its m33 recovery menu that more like dax, and we all know that only dax can know how to deal with the updates, and psp stuffs,
And for the peps who are still on 3.40OE and stucked in OE firmware and not on M33, i would say they are all losers, hehehe.
well, thanks anyway dark_alex or M33, or whoever you are, i hope that you still continue to make firmware updaters, and you stilll live up the psp scene. and still waiting for some plug-ins so that we can now enjoy on our homebrews in our psp phat 3.71 CFW, many thanks to you bro, kapatid.. Maraming Salamat!! Adios!! Thank you!! :thumbup:

Okay I tried Recovering back to 1.5 but it gives me errors and doesn't return me to 1.5 like it's supposed to. Trust me I have ran recovery to 1.5 before so everything is setup right but it still isn't working. Someone please post the original top_menu plugin.RCO for 3.71 M33 so I can have my PSP. Please SOMEONE HELP ME!!!!!!!

I think its not working cause if im not mistaken it needs the 1.50 kernel to work...i tried to go back to 1.50 too but because in the recovery menu when i switch to the 3.71 kernel... it says its using the 3.52 kernel...I was gonna start from scratch to make sure i did it right but like you the recovery pack didnt work

[Johnny Rash]

I must have missed this thread.

This is awesome news. I'll update as soon as I can. I know it doesn't have support for the old kernel but it's still kickass.

And Dark_Alex is still around!


EDIT: Updated.

[cyclonus002]

Damn, it looks like alot of us need the 1.50 patch for 3.17M33...

[CaptainMorgan4]

Cyclonus could you possibly access your flash0 via USB from the recovery menu to send me a copy of the "topmenu_plugin.RCO" from the "/mso:flash0/vsh/resources/" folder? I can't even start my PSP right now because I couldn't make a backup of it when trying to change it to platnium icons, please I'd appreciate it alot and it only takes 5mins.

Well IRshell is dead with this release -sighs-.. Now I'll need to wait until a newer IRSHELL release comes out... Other than the incompatibilities with older software, the firmware works perfectly for me.. recovery menu and all, I can still run homebrew using Team Noobz e-loader made for the PSP Slim.

[SpooForBrains]

OK, I get why recovery doesn't work as it did in previous firmwares, but is there a reason why you can't use Pandora to go back to 1.5 from this release?

Also, there have been a few changes in this release from previous custom firmwares. Would it have been too much to say:

1. Using recovery to return to 1.5 will not work because x. instead do y.

and to mention the fact that you may need to remove the memory stick to access recovery at all (which, also ... why?).

It seems like the drama llamaing is more important than getting across basic information these days. It never used to be that way.
