*** UPDATED*** CFW 3.80m33 release tomorrow!

Via MyQJ.net

Heads up, Sony PlayStation Portable homebrew fans - more info has just been released about the upcoming Custom Firmware 3.80 M33, direct from Mathieulh himself. No, it's not yet released, but there is a special bit of news that should make you eager for its arrival all the more - and it has something to do with the way it's going to update your PSP.

So, what's the new info? First off, an exact ETA of the firmware itself - that is, tomorrow. Apparently, a lot of people were expecting it to be released today, but due to an unexpected delay of sorts, it didn't happen.

The reason for this - and brace yourself - is that Dark_AleX has made it so that this new firmware would update the same exact way that Sony's official firmwares do, via WiFi. That means that it's going be a hassle-free, no-messy-installation-needed update (of course, you have to access Network Update for it), and certainly a very welcome addition to the host of features the custom firmware brings.

It could also mean that from now on, all updates will be cumulative - that is, if you've been out of the loop for quite a while and suddenly upgrade to the latest firmware, you won't have to go through the long, hard slog of upgrading through the previous firmwares you've missed. Convenient, and definitely justifies the 24-hour delay.

Holy s***. Updating custom Firmware using Sony's meathods. lol. Sony steals custom's themes, radio, its only fair we steal their updating meathod. D_A rocks!

 

I wonder if this is going to be the only way to update cos then i would have to go out and get me a router
can't see not being able to update the old fashioned way though.

 

Of course D_A will offer the updates on his site, dark-alex.org. He has every OE/M33 project he's every completed on his site.

 

DAX's site is down right now, hoping it's for the updated CFW.

 

Finally I can use remote play again =D Though I have no clue how this new update setup is intended to work =\

 

I'm thinking that to update to the 3.80 M33, we are going to have to use the old fashion method, i.e our memory sticks. However, once we have 3.80 M33 on our PSP's, the next updates will be done through the network update via a wireless router.

 

So heres an update:

We've been getting reports that, despite the announcement yesterday from Mathieulh, Dark AleX and the rest of Team M33 will not be able to release CFW PSP 3.80 M33 on time. Everyone's been on their toes for the projected release today, but as it turns out, we might have to wait just a little bit longer.

In a recent post by Ketchup in PSP-Gen, we learn of the explanation given by Mathieulh:


According to our information, some technical problems remain and as us mathieulh points out it so well, the [motto] of the TEAM M33 is "quality above all".




In light, Dark_AleX still seems to have some small adjustments to make and it prefers to take its time before putting on line its Custom Firmware 3.80 M33.




Though it is, it is the wisest decision because nothing presses.




Knowing the talent of Dark_AleX, this delay could be of a few days, or only of a few hours. For the moment, no one does not know it.


More adjustments? As if sneaking in that last minute CFW Network Update feature wasn't cool enough, is DAX cooking up something else for us? Maybe "some small adjustments" here simply mean bug fixes - they did after all had a bit of trouble with the NID translations.

We've been checking out Dark AleX's official site though, and we've been noticing that it's been going on and off today. Their site's been under maintenance for about an hour now (screencapped above). At first we assumed that maybe it's in preparation for the eventual release - maybe this is part of the "technical problems" that Math stated.

For what it's worth, they could be priming their site to take the brunt of all those downloads and traffic once they release CFW 3.80.

Let's all hope now for a smooth release for DAX's CFW 3.80 M33. Just wait patiently guys. As Ketchup posts, who knows? It could be in just a few hours or minutes that the CFW hits us in all its glory.


DAX's site is down again! maybe updating!?!?

 

D_A site was up for a few hours. When I checked it, his website's homepage basically contained everything. He used to have M33 and OE seperated. Also, the address changed. It was www.dark-alex.org, now its www.dax.com i think.

EDIT:
lol, the new site is http://gamesquare.co.uk/wdax/.

 

Those are just mirrors.

 

wait what? i was just at his site and it seems fine...

 

http://dark-alex.org is the correct site. Everything else are mirrors. Try it you'll get redirected to a mirror. Hes still down. I wonder why?
