Why dont they put speed up MS in it already? Thats really the only thing seperating m33 from GEN!

NO firmware/custom firmware can connect to WPA2. It's not supported.

just because you dont use 1.50, doesnt mean its useless.
alot of poeple still use it to use and play non-updated homebrew.

"PLus, one thing that can make GEN better than M33 is if they make it capable of connecting to WPA2-AES, cause i need that capability!!!"

he's not saying it is supported, he's saying if GEN could find a way to add support then him and i suspect alot of other people woould be really happy.

   Re: xche78x - 2009-10-23
 » to all 1.5 kernel users

isnt about time you stop playing such old demo?
how about devoting such time to playing more current homebrew and games?
and if youre so dedicated to such old thing then by all means, never update you phat and most of all never whine coz psp homebrew devs are not in any way obligated to support any one of us.

i myself still uses some old psp home brew's but they somehow are compatible with 3.xx (my slim) and in any case i would totally stop using them in exchange for newer better homebrew and games, just like how i instantly changed my phat to slim on the very first week psp slim was released.

   Re: Silver_Infinity - 2009-10-23
 » Unfair.

@che

It's not fair for you to call them out on their preference for the stuff they want to run on their PSPs. That's their choice, to play what they want. In fact, they have been able to do so throughout M33, since 1.5 Kernel for Phats have always come out.

That's like saying "You guys shouldn't play Super Mario Bros. 3 because it's old and therefore bad"...despite being a totally good game. Totally unfair.

It is fair to ask that a 1.5 Kernel Add-on be made for GEN firmwares. Note, I said *ask*, not *demand*. And if it isn't made? That should be fine, there's not much new in 5.50 anyways, and PSN Access is still blocked.

   Re: Foolmonkey - 2009-10-23

How about instead of being a retard and playing an outdated DEMO you get the actual GAME that doesn't have any limiting restrictions.

you guys dont even know the difference between homebrew and a demo?
LOL

   Re: xche78x - 2009-10-23
 » i thought i made it clear

"and if youre so dedicated to such old thing then by all means, never update your phat"

this problem is fixable, stay with the cfw with 1.5 kernel of your choice on your phat and buy another psp for the latest homebrew demo whatever.
im kinda harsh there, sorry! but 1.5 kernel users have options which they simply chose not to or cannot be cause of money or other problems.
and they will be bugging these great psp coders to make 1.5 kernel for them instead of the devs devoting their time on something everyone can benefit. isnt it what we can call "selfish" to ask such a thing and deprive others of the limited coding time these psp devs have?

   Re: Aces In The Palm - 2009-10-23
 » ok

why should we buy another psp just for 1.50
thats like me saying to you
theres no need for 6.10
buy another PSP and use that for UMD games and use CFW for homebrew
oh that wont work will it.
because you pirate

   Re: Aces In The Palm - 2009-10-23
 » you see

1.50 is for homebrew
you dont need a new CFW for homebrew
you can get a second battery and run test m33 to run homebrew and a normal batt that will run OFW
so you buy another battery

but seriously, i cannot live without my super mario war. otherwise i would have already left m33 in the dust, where they belong. please yoshihiro and GEN, release a 1.50 kernel add on?

I don't seem to have a problem connecting to WPA2-AES on Gen-D. Well so far no problems.

They really should fully test this type of releases before they even release it to make sure there are no problems and they wouldn't have to keep posting new fixes. I never had a problem with M33 with their releases or even see them make fixes unlike this.

But I definately give GEN props though for making things happen at the moment since M33 is absent at this time.


   Re: m3rox - 2009-10-23

You don't recall M33 making any fixes, huh? How do you think we get so many numbers after M33? i.e. 3.71 m33-4 (there were three previous 3.71 m33 firmwares), or 5.00 m33-6 (yep, there were 5 previous 5.00 m33 firmwares). The reason DAX kept updating a firmware version was to make fixes and implement new features (notice, I said make fixes).

5.00 M33-5 actually made everything stop working. Also the first version of fatmsmod did the same thing. Made it so pics/music/games didn't show up. People need to stop acting like GEN is sooo. Did you ever think that maybe the makers of GEN doesn't even have a WPA connection? ffs

you not the real Yoshihiro, so stop acting like you are.
first of all Magixien is the one releasing the Gen's CFW not you or the real Yoshihiro. the real Yoshihiro only made eboot patchers, which are then licensed the code and or reversed engineer / by genyus team and included into newer gen cfw.

yoshihiro does work on GEN firmwares

he is simply implementing the keys he used to decrypt eboot.bin into to firmware itself so you dont need to patch them

   Re: xche78x - 2009-10-23
 » i mistyped something there woops

yoshihiro now programs for the gen, but he still isnt the releaser of the cfw.
for example i make music mixes for group, still i never distribute, that's the role of someone else on the group, i only pass my work on him/her. that's the same idea im applying on Genyus team.
yoshihiro is not in charge of gen cfw distribution.
anyways lame argument, still didnt make me believe he is the real yoshihiro, maybe if he answers me in japanese i will rest my case.

for all we know, DAX couldve been bought off by sony to not make cfws anymore after all the trouble he caused them.

then DAX passed his knowledge to GEN and Yoshi to wreck havok on sony and continue his legacy. then sony buys em off too.

then GEN passes their knowledge to another coder, and so on...

M33 is the best. I've been using 5.50GEN-B, and I recently upgraded to D, but the result was catastrophic. My slim crashes once every four times I try to do something with it. So I screwed GEN-D and went back to 5.00M33-6.

But still, not having 5.55+ game support sucks :(

I'll try D2 out and see if it's stable enough.

and @ GEN team...Add MS Speedup or fatmsmod (or both lol) and i will try out your new firmware but the speed I was getting from B2 (1.5 mbps transfers) was just too low...Fix that and I will be happy to upgrade as it looks like all the other bugs have been or are about to be fixed.

Whoops, my bad. Thought you couldn't run patched games on 5.00M33-6...

But I can't be bothered to patch all of my 5.55+ games, cause I'm still happy with my older titles. Yes, I'm that lazy.

This is about the drama surrounding 5.02HEN-A.

The following statement is from Dark_AleX.

This is about how I trusted someone called %u201Cmiriam%u201D and I gave him a kernel exploit of C+D, which was found by joek (the ONLY ONE that deserves credit of that), just to play for HIMSELF, as it is being used to decrypt 3k modules, but the first thing he did was to show to others to get a bit of fame.

Now I realize not to trust anyone anymore, thanks.

Later on, Alek the webmaster of the whole Dark-alex.org network posted a blog entry following up on DAX%u2019s claim:

Some months ago, the PSP Scene saw the %u201Cbirth%u201D of a developer, called %u201CMiriam%u201D.

We all saw funny things about him, even one stupid comparision within it%u2019s name (sort of MIR + GOD, I am + I am, lolz!)

But the real thing comes now. You might have seen a recently exploit published on some french webpage, making themselves as their own creators, and so on.

I spoke with MaGiXieN last night, and well, i didn%u2019t knew this, but since this is what has happened, from dark-alex.org, thanks french %u201Cdevelopers%u201D, thanks Miriam, or well, maybe i%u2019d call you HellDashX, instead of Miriam, as it%u2019s your real identity.

You%u2019ve deceived and lied to spanish, french, and other people, and the ones that have helped you even on that GEN lame copy cfw, as you couldn%u2019t even finish your own modules.

You don%u2019t have any right to use that exploit, as it isn%u2019t yours, as anything that you have claimed is yours. You won%u2019t get any more help from us. Period.
