Team M33 teaser: PSP Slim CFW 3.60 coming soon! - Image 1The last official release we heard from Team M33 was when they rolled out the fourth update of their custom firmware for PSP FW 3.52. Well, here's one of the biggest teasers in the history of homebrew: "3.60 M33 for PSP Slim Coming Soon!"

That's what they currently have flagged (literally) in the middle of their website right now. How soon is soon? We have no clue. But in the homebrew scene, "soon" could be taken to mean within a day or two from now. Or just a matter of hours!

Meanwhile, the team hasn't dropped any "teaser" changelogs either, so all we can do is wait. For those who remember, that's what happened prior to the release of CFW 3.52 Update #3.

For what it's worth, this bit of news could finally dispel all your doubts (if there were any, to begin with) about getting a PSP Slim. Knowing that a CFW for 3.60 is bound to surface "soon," then you better start saving up for a Slim!

Keep your eyes peeled, folks! You can bet we'll be on top of things once 3.60 M33 CFW finally hits the scene!

I won't call you gay or stupid. Time to buy a pspslim!!!!!!111

This is fake. How did they get Homebrew on a PSP Slime? Not possible, you think sony would let a bunch of noobz hack their new PSP's firmware?

(well they arent noobz but you get the point)

Seriously? what exploit do they have to make the M33updatemaker eboot run?

3.52 can't downgrade so how would 3.60 be downgradable?

 » HMm

Im not sure...but i have heard that 1.5 FW cant run on a slim...so the CFW would have to run on the 3.60 Kernel...Pandora Battery runs on 1.5 Kernel so yah...Pandora Battery will have to be modded

   Re: whoelse (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09

You cant downgrade 3.60 yet so how can you install 3.60 CFW if your psp is a slim? Someone please explain

   Re: kefka12 (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » HEN

it probably uses a HEN (hello world) like how some firmwares you could keep them homebrew enabled or downgrade. maybe they found a way to take out the part of the firmware that requires code to be signed.

   Re: FreePlay (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » It's simple.

The installation will require a Pandora battery (which DOES work on the slim) and will use new software that overcomes the security checks Sony added on the service mode.

 » leaked news!

I got leaked news that they were working on this since over 2 weeks with a PSP Slim they got their hands on (from someone not specified) and basically it will instal by accesing the flash0 files, enable the installer to run, and modify the flash0 so that it runs a copy of 3.60 firmware with a kernel similar to 1.5, run plugins and homebrew, run isos and csos (not dax, just like in the previous M33 CFW) and most (not all) of the options available from CWF 3.52-4. Evreyone keep spreading the news. 2 of the several members of M33 have leaked us this small tidbit of information. Release date for CFW 3.60 M33: Sept/10/2007

why would I want a PSP Slim? That would mean no more IR Shell. So screw that idea.

 » metalspector

is full of sh*t. You can't change the files on flash0; they're encrypted and sigchecked. You can only do this with a custom IPL.

   Re: Gvaz - 2007-09-10
 » all of you are stupid

M33 wouldnt boast about having the PSP slim's hardware hacked if they didnt already have it hacked.

the funniest thing is how sony boasted about "not being able to crack this firmware" when its only been out a few days and the group already has a custom firmware to be released in a few days.

sony is friggen retarded.

wat if this turn out wrong somehow and some retards already bought a psp slim. i would suggest you wait till they actually realese it which wont be done until sept. 14. i know because if they released it earlier sony might take all their stocks back and change it. but im not all sure.

Can't wait to see this. This will definitely vindicate a purchase of a PSPSlim come October(Star Wars Pack! FTW!). Keep up the good, work! Already prepping a donation for when this comes out.

someone please explain this. in order to have a custom firmware made you need the update file. but a 3.60 eboot isnt out inless there is one floating around

someone dumped the firmware from the PSP slim (idk how) and so M33 has access to them.

   Re: D@rk_Zer0 - 2007-09-09
 » Re: mohaas05

It's fact that you can take out the flash chips and insert them into a Nano-Chip reader; install the chips to a OE psp and you can dump the firmware. so that's how MathieulH dumped it. the only thing i don't get is how in the WORLD you can run CFW on a psp slim; they barely came out! man M33 is fast!

althouhg i want a psp slim its more of a want then need

i still think the originall psp is better :)

   Re: jon (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » need, not want

i need a new psp, not want one. my screen is all screwed up from one of the music visualizations, the pixels are all shaky while the screen is on, not as vibrant as it should be, and when the screen automatic goes off from sitting too long, the screen gets all whacked out with wierd colors including black, so i can't see much of anything. so then i have to take out the battery to get it back to normal. i hope this works so i can trade up to a slim for free in december with my extended warrenty at the store i bought it at. i only want to do it if hb is on the slim, but i might do it regardless and just wait 'cause i'm sure it will happen.

   Re: fearevil19 (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » me2

@jon mya, me2
do u think that if i brick on purpose with a official firmware they will trade for a slim?

   Re: jon (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » brick exchange

do you purchase an extended warrenty at a store that covers pretty much anything with free replacement? i did this last year too. on my first psp, the analog stick broke, so i just waited a few months until the sony warrenty expired, then took it to gamecrazy and got a new one. not sure how they are with bricks, or messed up screens for that matter. i might just end up breaking my analog stick again. and hopefully since the slim's will replace the regular psps, i'll get one of those instead. woo hooo if this cfw turns out to be true.

   Re: analog breaker (Unregistered) - 2007-09-10
 » How to...

Hey jon to break ur analog stick, u might already kno this, just spin it around and it will ***** up the insides so it always goes in some direction. You can also try one of the 3rd party nubs and play any game since ull prob do it by accident with one of those dam things
   by Kim (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » yeah

As soon as i get to know how it will work, i'll consider getting a slim.


   Re: verbatim (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » I want a slim

I really want a slim, but I can't really afford it, I don't have to save for PS3 anymore since my brother will get it soon, but then I really could have better use of a 360 or new PC or something liek that. But, I would love to play for example Portable OPS on the big screen!

   Re: Matt S. (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » uhhh....?

Creating a CW for 3.60 seems doable, but how are you going to allow the "slim" to be downgraded in the first place? Last I heard, the pandora battery trick didn't work.
   by Nine Masquerade (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » Very Exciting

Well, This is some great news. I just hope they don't release this too early so Sony won't patch any PSP Slims. But then again, we don't even know the method that the team is taking to do this...

P.S. Is buying the StarWars PSP Slim Pack the only way you can obtain a US ceramic white PSP Slim?


   Re: unregistered (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » re: Nine Masquerade

Yes, that's the only way to get an American White PSP.

   Re: tom (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09

no play asia has the ceramic white + other colors available for pre-sale and will be released in the us on sep. 20th

how are we going to use this i thought Pandora didn't work on the slim. Did they tweak Pandora to get it to work?

the person who discovered the exploit with dark alex said it wasn't hard either

   Re: The Guy (Unregistered) - 2007-09-09
 » I agree...

What's the implementation here? Unless Team M33 is going to unleash some awesome homebrew enabler for 3.60 in the next couple of days, I've heard nothing on the homebrew implementation side of things. Just creating the CFW won't do anyone any good if no one's going to be able to install it.
