    I just got my battery today and great guide! I an in 3.71m33-2!

    But: I am at this part
    After I open MUX and choose 3.71m33-3 and it blinks and I click exit, it does not update! What "update" are you talking about to press? The PSP Update ver 2.60?

    The update is an icon in the game memory stick that will say something like 3.71 m33-3 - that's the update you run.
    But why not take it to 3.80 m33-4 / this then update to 3.80 m33-5.

    I thought you had to take it to 3.71m33-3 than to 3.71m33-4 no?

    If you prefer to do it that way then that's fine - just a few extra steps.
    Once you get to 3.80 m33 you can then do the network update to get the latest customer firmwre - it's now set to hit dark alex's site by default.

    What's the difference between 3.8m33 and 3.71?

    It's an updated firmware that has the stuff Sony released in the official firmware like internet radio but 3.80 m33 also has the update custom firmware feature through the network update.
    See this thread for the release notes - link

    I just ran this tutorial on my PSP Phat with OFW 3.80, and it worked great. I used a Datel tool battery, and my magic memory stick. I ran it on my slim with OFW 3.72 also, and it worked great. I just wanted to pass this info on to anyone wondering if it would work with OFW 3.80.

    This is a little off topic, but does anyone know how to play Playstation 1 games on PSP with 3.71m33-4?

    Yep off topic. Do a search 1st and I'm sure you'll find quite a few threads covering this.

    instead of getting this screen, i got a screen saying something like "Thank you for so and so for the program"
    and"files copied by xhi"
    or something to that effect
    and it just says Press any key to continue....and then it exits
    also, what should the contents of your memory stick be after this? does vista work ok?

    members need to read the past post in this guide. It has been said multiple times to use XP if you have issues running it on Vista.

    my GOD -.- dun do that unless u are promted to restart ur psp , u'll just have to wait till the update complete if u turn off half way, i duno what might happen to ur psp, good luck. well tell u something honestly, when i update to v3.80 m33-3 frm v3.71m33-2 when i finish updating, i was promted to restart...but...my psp dint turn on at all
    the LED did turn on but the screen dint show up anything i kept trying every idea i can think of till i remove my mem stick remove the battery also(which finally worked- turning my psp back on)...i wait for around 1~2mins later place the battery pack back, and hold the L Trigger down, i duno what it means but it just turn back on and function normally..and its updated to v3.80m33-3.
    ***So take note***

    Edit:
    ur mem stick LED keeps blinking because it is extracting the patch files u put in it', it'll definitly take sometime for it to extract the files and extract to its onboard OS.

    Thanks for the guide. Looks easy enough to use. I'm gonna try changing my Official Firmware 3.80 into the custom firmware. I'll let you know how everything goes! Appreciate the guide looked all over for days!
