Custom firmware 5.50GEN-D now out

CFW 5.50GEN-D - Image 1

It seems the fix for the 480x272 AVC problem didn't affect custom firmware 5.50GEN-D's release at all. The new custom firmware from GENyUS is now available for download.

Here's what's new:

All features of 5.50GEN-B2 are available
Ability to run 5.51 + games without having to patch it (UMD or ISO)
Possibility to launch PSN demos requiring 5.51 + without having to patch them (as MGS for example)
Possibility to connect to the Playstation Store by the using of MEDIAGO, to retrieve games and goodies without having to install Fake USB or other complicated stuff.
Possibility to use the XGEN Updater to install the official firmware 6.10 (use it only if you have a Pandora XGEN to be able to return later in Custom firmware)
480x272 AVC Videos ere supported

An option to accelerate reading of the memory stick (the fatmsmod, I presume) is also in the process of getting ported to the 5.50GEN releases, so stick around for more updates on that.

Thanks to steffen, cmbeke, Jsanity663, and tstamper01 for the tips!

# RE: Installation???? — Guest 2010-05-16 12:59

take out your battery and then try.

# Update — derek.b.coffey 2009-10-21 12:45

Update to CFW 5.0 M33-4 or 6 then upgrade with Gen

# @reyknow — haxor 2009-10-21 12:54

i upgraded from 5.50 gen b2 to 5.50 gen D

i would upgrade to 5.50 gen b2 before 5.50 gen D if i were you, just to be safe

# No — haxor 2009-10-21 12:57

you shouldnt upgrade to 5.50 gen-d from m33

upgrade to 5.50 gen-b2 first then upgrade to 5.50 gen-d

# THIS IS WORTHLESS!!!! — DatGoodJ 2009-10-21 12:58

This is a worthless piece of crap I can do everything this can do on 5:50GEN-B enough of this crap make a 6.00 CFW you idiots

# You Retarted moron!! — GLO13AL_T3RROR 2009-10-21 13:01

@ DatGoodJ -- You damn piece of *****!! Stop acting like a *****, be thankful that they are releasing it to public you fricking moron!

# Great! — achu 2009-10-21 13:07

I hace just installed. It's works perfect!.

Tested with several ISO's games and emulators.

Great work!!.

Thanks!!!!

# Can 5.00 M33-6 Upgrade to Gen-D? — gr3ff3n 2009-10-21 13:08

Hey guys, I've never been on Gen firmware before, but I figured that being able to play new games is worth it. *Tears up for betraying the Amazing DA firmware*

I'm not a total noob, but....

Can I upgrade straight from 5.00 M33-6 to 5.50 GEN-D? And is there anything I should do before installing?

Thanks!

# 5.00 m33-6 — Guest 2010-01-22 08:35

yes of course i did it...

# Thanx! — hombrew_freak 2009-10-21 13:08

Updating to 5.00m33-6 and the to this worked like a charm.Thanx a lot derek.

# well — symbyosis 2009-10-21 13:13

some people say to go to B but you put the 5.50 fw in your mem stick so I think its safe to assume you can just update from m33 to GEN-D

# DatGoodJ — symbyosis 2009-10-21 13:19

even if you can do all of this with Gen-B, I hate having to do extra steps for stuff, I'd rather install this, and load my UMDs, or ISOs rather than extrating the php to patch it. So technically no you can't do all of this with GEN-B because you have to patch ALL your new games on GEN-B. If you personally don't want to upgrade, I respect that, but don't request them to stop making FWs just to appease your need for the "big step" maybe decrypting this one and getting the games to run on it, further help them understanding how to hack the new one.

# @reyknow — SuperSZ 2009-10-21 13:22

no, not yet. ... anyways, I was mainly saying before that you don't need to go to gen-C , I mentioned 5.00M33 but I'm not sure. Users recomend to update from gen b2. ... I don't wanna be the first one to update directly from M33 to GEN-D ... just in case

# Hmm.... — Bountyhunter53 2009-10-21 13:24

Works perfectly. MS is loading a bit slower than usual but everything is fine. Well fine in the stuff i use.

Games....Work! Homebrews......Works! Videos......Works! Wireless.....Works! Plugins.....Works!

I think sucessful testing stage this time. I thank Team GEN.

# Works flawlessly so far — MyDixieNormous 2009-10-21 13:24

Also, the playstation store appears to be accessible! Very good news

# No Netfront — mysterysword 2009-10-21 13:26

Netfront Browser does NOT work on 5.50GEN-D with a WPA wireless network (even flashing the htmlviewer_plug in.prx is useless). I flashed my 5.50GEN-B2 htmlviewer_plug in.prx back, but now it freezes the regular internet browser, so I'm pretty sure changes were made to htmlviewer_plug in.prx in 5.50GEN-D.

# correction — MyDixieNormous 2009-10-21 13:27

The playstation store doesn't seem to work for me :/ I was only able to sign up. Gives me the message "A ssystem software update for the PSP system is required."

Oh well.

# RE: correction — 67u6tjh 2010-10-03 16:15

download psnlover plugin and put it on ur seplugins on ur memorystick...then enable it from ur psp at the recovery menu..that should do it...it worked for me

hope this helps gd luck

# You;re the moron Global!!! — DatGoodJ 2009-10-21 13:29

You and anyone else who is taking this stupid ****. Tell those noob creators to get off their asses and make CFW 6.00 GEN!!! WE don't want useless crap

# wtf? — Humpfreey 2009-10-21 13:32

dude like you're complaining over a free lunch ?

ofw 6 was heavily protected by sony so a CFW is a major work.

gen team are great !

# Also... — Bountyhunter53 2009-10-21 13:32

It doesn't mention this. But the GEN CFW now has its own update server

So just click on system update and it does it all

# IRSHELL — lovehate 2009-10-21 13:36

IRSHELL:

After testing D I found this out.

Works after patching with IRSHELL GEN-B Patch by Yoshihiro(gets rid of the NO UMD inserted Message) but fails to load Backups unless you have decrypted the eboot for 550 and up games.

Waiting for Yoshihiro to make update Gen-D IRSHELL.

Also really, what a lame splash screen after game boot http://www.pspgen.com Enabled, GTFO.

Remove that S**t. As if the gameboots are not already long enough, no splah in B2, why now? Stupid!

At least it doesn’t show if the game is already decrypted, make an option not to show it in the vsh menu or just run it one time.

I think we all already now who the credits for. LAME!

Thanks for the update but Don’t really see an advantage over B2, No splash in that! No PSN in that either.

Decrypting thanks to Yoshihiro is better then that splash to me.

Thanks, but no thanks

# question — reyknow 2009-10-21 13:40

which did you try? you mean the original netfront browser provided by sony or the faster homebrew version?

# update — lovehate 2009-10-21 13:44

PSN Store does work.

I take that back

# PSN does NOT work — DatGoodJ 2009-10-21 13:45

you need MediaGO, worthless because we still can't play PSN online games.

# DatGoodJ — reyknow 2009-10-21 13:48

who the f**k are you???

1. did you pay for this cfw??? NO

2. do you pay them to make cfws??? NO

3. are you obliged to download this cfw??? NO

4. did you contribute anything for this cfw??? NO

so stop f**king whining

# what? — haxor 2009-10-21 13:50

splash screen? what splash screen?

my games just boot like normal, no extra screen

# psn — reyknow 2009-10-21 13:50

so if PSN works, does that mean you can play motorstorm online?

# . — mysterysword 2009-10-21 13:58

The faster homebrew one. I tried the latest version of it

# "becausenewerisn otalwaysbetter" — pokerpoker 2009-10-21 14:02

**just reading comments**

problems with wireless

problems with online games

splash screens in crypted games

no remote play support

no new features of 6.00+

*fixed*problems with video (wtf, same fw but video playback is not working properly ?!? o.O)

i wish i could have a clean, bug-free firmware.

D_A used to accomplish that.

# yeah yeah — reyknow 2009-10-21 14:06

sure DA was good, but give GEN team some respect

# great — Humpfreey 2009-10-21 14:16

I had no luck getting chinatown wars working on gen5.50-b2, decrypted, different drivers, etc

but gen-d works great - nice screen crediting YoshiHERO

excellent

# your missing the point — haxor 2009-10-21 14:21

sure there are some bugs but at least now we can play psp games without all that patching crap

also for me wireless works fine, online play is the one that doesnt work... and it wont work untill 6.10 is decrypted

# noob question: — exionzero 2009-10-21 14:28

I take it that this won't allow me to play FW6.00 encrypted games (such as the UK version of Dissidia), right?

And how would I go about enabling my PSP to play these titles (if at all possible) without switching to OFW?

(currently on latest M33)

# Pokerpoker preach — DatGoodJ 2009-10-21 14:28

exactly, D_A was the best, but now we have nothing

# Cry me a river. — SolidJedi 2009-10-21 14:49

-"problems with wireless": must be your psp, my wireless i running fine with GEN-D (PSP-2000 v1)

-"problems with online games": what online games? If you mean the ones that need PSN to play then its not the CFW fault. Sony blocked it.

-"splash screens in crypted games": Again you need to elaborate.

-"no remote play support": Remote Play is running perfectly on my version. Again must be your settings of PSP

-"no new features of 6.00+": lol really? Must be because this is 5.50!!

-"*fixed*problems with video": it is fixed. be happy about it.

-"i wish i could have a clean, bug-free firmware. D_A used to accomplish that.": If you think you can do better, you are more than welcome to try. And Dark Alex is not here, and he hasnt put out anything since M33-6, so stop crying. Dark Alex CFW weren't perfect either, but this guys are doing a great job as well. You should be a little more thankful. Its because this guys are working hard, that you can enjoy games, without going to OFW 6.10, and not having to buy them. IF you have problems with those issues, its because you did something wrong. I installed the same thing you did, and everything is running fine.

# Mario 64 problem — DaniPoo 2009-10-21 14:49

There is something wrong with all gen firmwares.

When I am using the Daedalusx64 emulator and try to play Mario 64 with sound on my psp2000 always freezes up and turns off. On the other hand, It does work if I turn the sound off or if I play any other game with sound.

And the same emulator has no problems on my psp 3000 with 5.03 MHU or my PSP1000 with 5.00 m33-6

# Because it's true — DatGoodJ 2009-10-21 16:12

We bash this firmware because it sucks and is useless. It does nothing better than Gen-B and 6.00 games STILL need to be patched for this trash. It also can brick systems and deletes all your settings. This is NOT worth Updating to.

# Yup — liddokun 2009-10-21 16:29

DatGoodJ, you are so true: it's completely not worth it to play games you bought. Totally NOT worth it.

Just grow up and stop trolling.

# if you're so mad about not being able to play online — symbyosis 2009-10-21 16:31

buy the game and use the OFW then your problem will be solved, stop complaining, they made it so you can PLAY YOUR GAMES. if you can't play online SO WHAT?! you most likely pirated it anyway if you're *****ing so much.

# M33 — dennis96411 2009-10-21 16:52

I use M33 No UMD Mode, didn't work.

Tried OE legacy, fail to initialize WLAN.

Tried Sony NPblah, fail to start the game.

Guess I gotta try Normal now.

# Well... — Arliman 2009-10-21 17:27

Then use official firmware. Or Adhoc Party. God, you *****ing whiners.

# DatGoodJ — fortex 2009-10-21 17:28

So DatGoodJ, how bout you stop whining? Don't like Gen, do not update! Do you want a better CFW? Start studying and create your own! Andrew Ryan would call you a parasite, LOL.

Do 5.55 games previously patched to work with B2 work in D?

Or do they need the original .bin files?

# . — mysterysword 2009-10-21 19:37

By "wireless problems" he probably meant my post about the homebrew Netfront Browser that enables all RAM for the browser. It doesn't work with 5.50GEN-D with a WPA network, but the regular internet browser works fine still. The Links2 browser also can't work with a WPA network

# it wont play — Troy Gerbrandt 2009-10-21 20:40

it wont play my china town wars cso

# Compatibility and such... — jolophi23 2009-10-21 21:56

I just upgraded from GEN-B2 to GEN-D, and so far no problems encountered.

For IRshell -> just patch it again after updating, using Yoshihiro's patch, it worked fine for me.

For Already patched games -> they will still work, just remember which driver they played before; either M33 or SonyNP9600.

For Emulators -> works fine for DaedalusX64 Alpha R 436 and gpSPmod.

For Plugins -> works fine for cxmb, wallpaper changer, music, UVM and hold.

# it's just released — misthero 2009-10-22 00:30

how do you pretend someone can have such a list. just try the hombrew you need make a list and let us know.

and writing all CAPS make you appear like a retard

# . — mysterysword 2009-10-22 01:42

Yes, that's what this custom firmware version was made for.

# . — mysterysword 2009-10-22 01:44

Apparently they changed a lot in D. Some flash0 contents appear to be different, and they may have had to format flash1 in order to fix the wireless WPA problem.

# Have you tried this? — dakka 2009-10-22 01:57

# WPA encryption — eddib 2009-10-22 03:53

and thx GEN for the excellent work.

# what!?!? — Aces In The Palm 2009-10-22 04:26

you can update from ANY CFW

it formats the friggin flashes before it writes.

you could update from 3.10OE and it would install no problems at all

# Remote Play? — Henkibojj 2009-10-22 06:31

Hey guys, I haven't been into homebrew or even PSP at all for at least a year and a half by now, but I recently had 5.00 M33-6 installed until today when I installed this.

Everything works without problem, only I wonder if there isn't any way to get past the PSN FW check. I haven't been able to use internet Remote Play for about a year and not PS Store either.

Is there any help to find? If so, I would be really happy for all the help I can get. I tried googling a bit but I only found old threads everywhere.

# Recovery mode — Henkibojj 2009-10-22 06:34

Start up your PSP from a cold reboot and hold R. Find Registry Hacks and activate the O button instead of X.

That feature has been there since 3.70 M33 or so, at least for a long time :)

# @Advertising — Bountyhunter53 2009-10-22 08:20

Go jump out of the closest window to you, make sure its high up (around 6th floor should be ok).

# Something... — Silver_Infinity 2009-10-22 08:53

I'd like to point out that most of the -2, -3, -4, etc stuff of M33 were either minor (read: doesn't affect *most* people), or improvements to existing things that already work fine.

You can check the changelogs. Less 'noticable' bugs, and more minor things, and a lot more 'improvements'.

But yeah, GEN does deserve some respect, and deserves no bashing whatsoever. Although personally, nothing in GEN still catches my attention, and I'm still happy with my M33-6 and the wonderful Memory Stick Speedup thing which is still bounds faster than fatmsmod. And ALL the homebrew/plugins I use work with it (some didn't in GEN).

The day that feature appears in GEN, and when more actual 'features' come out will be the day I switch over. Or at least until a game that I REALLY want to play doesn't work on existing M33 offerings.

# They should. — Silver_Infinity 2009-10-22 09:02

Decrypting simply bypasses one step of the FW's job (decryption).

Sooo...anything you've already decrypted should work, whatever the revision you use it on.

# WOO — tobyo1 2009-10-22 09:54

Everything's working perfectly now, thanks Team Gen. Internet is fine, PS store is fine, all the other known bugs are gone. Still missing 1.5 kernal, but it's not too bad, just miss some old emus and one of my old favourites - PSP Millionaire lol. Anyway, ty a lot, love you Team GEN.

# @ SolidJedi "Cry me a river" — Henkibojj 2009-10-22 10:52

I see that you say both PSN and Remote Play works. I'd like to know how you did it, because I went from 5.00 M33-6 and installed this. Everything works except for PSN and infrastructure Remote Play. RP for adhoc works splendid though, what could be my problem?

# Not so good at all so far... — Seattlemods 2009-10-26 20:02

The installer ran successfully. Initial restart was successful. I could not run any ISO/CSOs (Tried Dirt2, NFS Shift, Indiana Jones). I powered down, restarted to recovery menu. Enabled M33 no umd, and vsh. When I backed out of the recovery menu the PSP would not restart. Got no dispaly but the power light stayd on for 20 seconds or so... back to the recovery menu, put settings back. Still could not restart the PSP in any mode. Removed the MS and it boots. Once booted, popped the MS back in and loaded Dirt2 (with UMD in the drive, UMD mode set to default) Game started this time. Played a quick race. Pushed the home button to exit the game... PSP powered off. Going to try formatting my MS, but man, this is not promising.

Wow, I was an M33 fanboy until Disgaea 2 and Dissidia. Gamestation were selling a new Dissidia for a tenner so I bought it and found my M33 wouldn't play it. Did some research and now I'm happy as a bee on Gen-D2. It's brilliant! I was worried it was some crappy hack of a firmware but it's just like M33 just without the memory stick speedup.

Since all my PSP games are UMD I don't care about that!

Seriously to anyone still on M33; upgrade. I have no respect for DA when he won't upgrade his firmware.

# all better — Seattlemods 2009-10-27 20:41

Formatting the MS did the trick, everything seems to be working fine now.

# i selected the ofw 5.50 :( — dgs 2009-10-30 03:39

hey guys, I think i f'd up :(... instead of selecting [Flash install CFW 5.50] I chose the second option - [Flash install OFW 5.50] and now I can't even play my old games... What am I supposed to do now, go trough the whole pandora process again (which btw a friend of mine did it for me a few years ago). I searched the forum and no one was as stupid as me... My psp is a phat1000, TA-082 and it had CFW 5.00 M33-6 (before f'ing up)

PLEASE HELP !!!

-I also formatted the memory stick and tried to install CFW 5.00 and 5.50 again and it didn't work, it says "the game cannot be started, the data is corrupted"

# WTF... — Asskickulater 2009-10-31 06:25

# checking — Guest 2009-12-07 01:05

hey just checking, so can i directly update my 5.00 m33-3 cfw to the 5.50 GEN-D cfw with this?

# Uh... — Kuroi 2009-12-11 10:59

Why the heck is news from October on the front page?

# remote play — Guest 2010-01-17 03:30

ps3 to psp using private network is fine. What about through internet? It said it is required to update your psp firmware... I am using 5.50 gen-D. I usually use psp to work and watch some movies through internet to my ps3 at home. Quite useful and kill some time.

# 5.00 m33-6 — Guest 2010-01-22 08:29
