psp GEN Custom firmware links Incl 5.50 GEN-D3

hey i have a question my friend has a PSP fat also the same as mine but for some reason i was not able to help him update from Gen-B(full) to Gen-D i tried updateing to C then D but every time i click on the update it would just freeze and i notice in his PSP he has an additional folder called poploader or somthing ike that could that be the reason?

 

hey. this firmware is for 5.50. will it work to games that need a 5.55 upgrade? i know its kind of a stupid question.

 

5.50 GEN-D3 does d2 and below you need encrypt-er read through page one most of the stuff you will need on there

 

excellent respect to you

 

disable the plugins through recovery console and try again there another option under configuration enabling to boot from long string of text UPDATE folder make sure that enabled or it will not update

 

lol sorry but for some reason i dont see either options on the PSP and for some reason when i press the select botton nuttin shows up usually on a crack PSP u see there are options

 

go into recovery mode hold right shoulder button when turning on psp (NOT FROM SLEEP MODE) under configuration enable vsh menu exit then when psp starts press select the vsh menu by pressing start has been disabled

 

i have this problem, my psp is now system software 3.8 M33-5. and when im tryng to update it to 5.50 GEN-D, the update starts but suddenly psp shutdown... what am i doing wrong? do i first have to update it to GEN-A?

 

May I start by saying Merry Christmas to you and all the staffs here.
It was 2 years ago when I last posted. Very nervous in the begining and very happy after managing to hack my PSP phat. Thanks again for help.

I am currently on 4.01 M33-2 and would like to upgrade to GEN-D3 but not quite sure how. I am not even sure how to get to 5.00 M33 let alone GEN-D3.

I had read your above post that you upgraded normally after 3.71 M33. Could you shed some light on how to do it? If you don't mind.

Thanks a lot.
Cheers

 

5.00m33-6 before gen

 

the post on here has been deleted not before i backed it up to word document i will email it to anyone requesting it, i went 3.71m33 to 5.00m33 then 5.00m33-6 and each gen step by step skipping gen-c as it is infamous for bricking psp's

 

Thanks for replying Mickoz.

After more hard reading and more observant, I have reach 5.00 M33-6.
From the above thread, it seems that Gen-D2 is a lot more stable than D3. I think thats where I will reach and stay.

Thanks again mate.
Cheers.

 

no worries in on d3 i only run psp games and psx with popsloader no probs for me at the mo

 

Im on GEN-B (Full), I was trying to run remotejoy, but didn't work... anyways I have 2 questions before updating, would getting all the way to D2 make it incompatible with other plugins?, am I losing anything? and secondly, Would updating make remotejoy work?, or would I need a totally different approach? thanks in advice

 

i don't run anything except popsloader and psp games so i have no idea sorry

 

Thanks alot! Installed up to Gen-D for now, should I go for D2 or D3 too? worked awesome btw

 

I am on 5.00 M33-6. I tried to play a game that requires 5.50GEN-D3 or 5.03GEN-C. I did some research and I ended up on this forum. The discussion here only talks about how to do the upgrade, but my question is very general.

1. Of 5.50GEN-D3 and 5.03GEN-C, which one is better?
2. Does either upgrade allow me to play more games than 5.00 M33-6?
3. Do you recommend upgrading? What's the trade off?

If anybody can help me out this, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

hi im new and have a question. i installed cfw and everything up the the -d but when i try to install it, the psp gives me the error

ms0:/550.pbp no found on root of your ms

i'm not sure what to do from here?

 

@Amanda40
if you haven't already downloaded the file 550.pbp do so now and copy and paste it to the root of your memory stick, thats it.
link to the official firmware's is in my signature.

 

I'm not quite sure how to do that? Which file is the 550.pbp?
