Dark_AleX's 3.03 OE-A' released

PSP


Dark_AleX has just released an update to his custom firmware 3.03 OE. Now at A'/A2, here's the list of changes:
  • Added cpu clock selection for umd/iso games. (not for vsh yet)
  • Fixed various bugs regarding the recovery menu, one of them made "rare text" appear when entering in plugins if pops plugins existed, the other one caused a crash when pressing triangle.
  • Fixed a small part of code in umd emulation that was not multithread safe.
While not a full blown update like 3.03 OE-A itself, it does fix a couple of things and also adds the ability to overclock up to 333MHz. Again though, it seems that the overclocking wants to play spoilsport with Wifi play, so if you play wirelessly with your friends, it's better to give overclocking a miss. Again, like the earlier upgrades, you can't update directly to them from a lower firmware, you have to upgrade to 3.03 OE-A first, then use this small upgrade. After downloading, just unpack it to the root of your Memory Stick. It will place itself in the correct folder hierarchy. Then just exit USB mode and run the updater to upgrade your firmware.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Overclocking

Advantages: Faster games with better performance. Disadvantages: Drain battery life quicker
by GaveUpTomorrow - 2007-01-06 20:35:10
...

You need to upgrade to 3.03 OE-A first. Running it from 3.02 OE-B will probably screw up everything or possibly even brick your PSP. Why can't you read the article though? It says right there that you have to upgrade to 3.03 OE-A first...geesh.

dont wanna flash twice

can I just update to 3.03 OE instead of downgrading then doing it (off 2.8)
by - 2007-01-06 20:45:13
303 oe-a?

dose this firmware runs psp iso/cso with out devhook? my 302 doesn't need it with a little mod iso runs like the ps1 games.
by - 2007-01-06 20:49:37
err wtf

i update to it then i lose my cintro then i reinstall my cintro then i lose the update the cpu speed and stuff anyone else having this problem?

Does this fix the graphic glitches in FF7 finally??
by - 2007-01-06 21:03:02
????????

this dosen't work with the cintro mod anymore and I didn't see an improment in lspeed when i had it at 333 maybe its because i have it compressed into a cso
by - 2007-01-06 21:04:13
333mhz

does this hurt your wifi chip because someone told me it does when i was using the oc plugin but ya please can we clarify this right now?
by - 2007-01-06 21:06:14
yeah...

does it fix ff7? plz sum1??
by - 2007-01-06 21:12:50
does it say it fixes it?

uh...no it doesn't. only $ony can release new updates or make improvements to the emulator. this fixes a bug in the recovery plug-ins menu that i've ran across myself. it also apparently let's you overclock now too in game.
by - 2007-01-06 21:13:59
WOO HOO!!!

I haven't used any of the new features since 2.71 SE-A (only wanted it for the ISO capability) but I can honestly say I have been updating these to keep with the current. Never got into popstation games. Can't think of one PS1 game I actually loved more than a PSP version. But every release that comes out, I will update! Thanks DA and the PSP homebrew community! -Bildo-

original 3.03 to 3.03 OE-A?

can a fw3.03 be changed to fw3.03 OE-a??? i sorta went crazy and upgraded on my first day with a PSP...... i noe it was stupid........... well is this possible??
by - 2007-01-06 21:44:10
overclocking

the psp was specced to run at 333mhz. but due to battery drain is stock underclocked at 222. if you dont care about batter life (for example, only 4 hours play instead of 5-6 i dont know numbers, just an example) then 'overclocking' is fine. or if you are running it off a power source then you know, doesnt matter much. thats what i understood anyway.
by Super6mix - 2007-01-06 21:44:21
God i already knew this

ok ok... PSPupdates is Fast but they do too much news. and they need to Concentrate on more important news like i knew this From.. like 7pm.. so. yeah... but too bad.. X-flash isn't Compatible with this Update... -Super6

by ultragoregrind - 2007-01-06 21:51:05
1. yes 2. maybe

you can always use the recovery mode to get back to 1.5 (rtfm) - but really there is no need. DA's firmwares do everything 1.5 does, and the current firmware, and more. as for your 1.5 homebrew - put them in PSP/GAME150 and try.
by - 2007-01-06 21:51:50
read this i beg you

i update mine from 3.02 OE-B to 3.03 OE-A not A'. and it got bricked. i knoiw theres a recovery mode for it and i can recover it but where do i download the recovery file? pls tell me im desperate i cant live without my psp
by - 2007-01-06 21:57:35
same question as u

i did the exact same thing i didnt know better and im dieing here tring to figure out how to play ps1 games and ta-003 or wut ever its called with 3.03 and sow far iv been told im totaly screwd...
by - 2007-01-06 22:00:23
nope, you're SOL pal.

uhh no. I did that like you, thinking i'd receive the latest features offered by sony, but realized it was dumb. Go back to where you bought the psp and bs them telling them your wifi won't work since the update and ask for another psp. this time up/down grade to 2.71, then downgrade to 1.5, then upgrade to 3.03oea'. then you're good to go.
by - 2007-01-06 22:06:27
ahhh

can this work with a downgraded TA-082 PSP?
by - 2007-01-06 22:06:47
great

Im now fully happy with my psx games now the audio tracks work now which is amazing!! THanks for the update dax hope mk trio works now

by - 2007-01-06 22:39:48
It works!

The overclock does work! 59 FPS in VCS with an ISO!
by - 2007-01-06 22:39:58
I don't get it...

If it clocks to 333MHz, why does it still seem like as if it 222MHz, or maybe its just vice city stories, BTW, its a cso. Still don 't see any significant changes. 2.50> 2.80> 0okm's 2.80 downgrader> 2.71> 1.50> 3.03 OE-A> 3.03 OE-A'
by - 2007-01-06 22:48:47
How?

How do you change the clock speed from 222 - 333? I upgraded to 3.03 OE A, + I can't find the option for Clock Speed change. Am I missing something?

Why Upgrade

What's the point of upgrading, I mean just wait till all the bugs are taking care of then upgrade, and pleas dont say that the compression is your reason. cuz I can fit up to 4 ps1 games 1 psp iso 40 mp3 and a short video on my 2 gb stick even then I don't get to play all the games all the time. so yeah my advice just wait a week or so, flashing your PSP every so often isn't very smart. and last thing is thank you Dark ALex cuz you rock.
by - 2007-01-06 23:22:29

make sure your game folder is under the 1.50 kernel

yup
by - 2007-01-06 23:42:37
...

Because we all know everyone has a 2GB stick like you Helooo. People can make up their own damn minds about whether they want to upgrade or not. Besides, compression can't be the reason for upgrading to this, as compression was introduced in the precious version. That was OE-A not this one (OE-A')

3.02 OE-B

Can you go from 3.02 OE-B to 3.03 OE-A then to 3.03 OE-A2?
by - 2007-01-06 23:47:05
.

Yes it can run ISO/CSO without devhook, just like 3.02 OE and 2.71 SE before that.

by - 2007-01-07 00:27:12

Recovery is installed on the flash! Hold R when turning on PSP to get to it. Then place everything in the 303oeflasher folder including the DXAR file into the PSP/GAME/RECOVERY directory on your memory stick.
by - 2007-01-07 00:29:41
...

Because its a CSO. It takes a lot more processor power to decompress the CSO on the fly. Being a game that stream loads constantly the cpu can't keep up, even at 333MHz. If you run it as an ISO you will notice a difference between 222 and 333.

What do you mean right speaker? Are you talking about headphones, b/c if so, that's probably just your headphones screwed up and not the psp. Put the right headphone on your lips and blow in it and suck out of it a couple times. You'll hear and feel a click when doing this.

RECOVERY MODE

IF THIS ALSO HAS A CHANCE TO BRICK YOUR PSP AND IT HAS A RECOVERY MODE. WHY DONT THEY JUST MAKE ALL DOWNGRADERS WITH A RECOVERY MODE????
by - 2007-01-07 08:32:19

yes, they should rather be custom upgraders... My guess is it is hard to make recovery menues, and installing a cf from such unstable hacks as the tiff exploits could be quite dangerous

FF7 GLITCHES AND POPSTATION

I did many test conversions for final fantasy 7 and Im convinced that popstation is the problem. Even when converting to "0" compression, the game still glitches during battles. I wrote Dark_AleX and am eagerly awaiting his reply. Hopefully Soon.

does this new upgrade mean that u can play more games without a umd in ur drive
by - 2007-01-07 11:45:58
Calm down!

Clone CD will create a .img which will work fine. DAX just means "Dark AleX" and is not a file type as far as I know.

Just press O when it does *then go down to kn and press O to open it *go down to wlan.prx *press X on it then /\ to past the file (again press circle when you get a confirmation message) *now exit by pressing select and start together *your games should now work fine when you overclock to 333MHz and use Wi-Fi TESTED BY ME, THE BORICUA KING, WITH IRSMP3.prx plugin on VSH using the web browser.

off topic

I was playing metal gear solid on my psp (dax made this possible) when i realize how am i going to beat that psychic guy if i cant change my controller to controller port 2? can anyone give me some advice? i beat the game back on the ps1 but it was easier since i can switch. Anyways i think any update by dax is worth updating.
by - 2007-01-07 15:14:49

I beat that game on the PC... no 2nd port here so unless they made the pc keyboard like the 2nd port in the ps1 you should be able to beat that guy
by - 2007-01-07 15:29:57
off topic 2

i tried but every shot he is able to avoid because he is able to predict my shots and moves. unless there is another way. But then again did you beat mgs for pc or a beat it on a pc using a pc emulator? cuz i think there is a pc version to this game and if so im sure konami knew they would run into this problem so they might of just taken it off. By the way im curious if sony will discontinue their improvement of their emulator since no one will really buy games anymore. Like me i have a whole collection of ps1 games (i knew they would come in handy some day). But i hope that they keep improving their emulator cuz it needs some improvements although most games run alright.

to .(unregistered)

why would you bother with devhook in the first place to overclock to 333mhz, when you could use cwcheat and change your clockspeed whenever you feel like it, even in the middle of the game, by just pressing select, which is good cuz if you want to go online and overclock, you could easily "downclock to 222mhz" then go online...

compression and converting

i came across a problem when using PSX2PSP v.0.7.1. The problem is that i can compress isos and convert them to eboot form. This is great but when i load a pbp file and set the compression level to 9 it doesn't compress anything. I know its kinda dumb cuz after all it is iso compression and not pbp. I was wondering if its possible to compress the pbp files? If not then is their a way to convert them back to iso form so i can compress the isos?

3.03 OE-A' PS1 games problem!!! HELP!!!

Hey guys, From the minute i updated to 3.03 OE-A' i dont seem able to play ANY PS1 psx (popstation) games!!!! I upgraded from 1.5 to 3.02 OE-A and then immediately to 3.02 OE-B and i could play PS1 games. The next day I succesfully upgraded to 3.03 OE-A, however I did not test any PS1 games at that time. Only PSP isos that worked fine. During the same day I upgraded immediately to 3.03 OE-A' and sadly i cannot run ANY PS1 games. PSP isos are still fine though. Any ideas of what i need to do to run those PS1 games again please? Thanx in Advance. Tio

3.03 OE-A to 1.5 in easy 12 steps for dummies.

1:) Download this: http://rapidshare.com/files/10689568/3.03_OE-A-A_27_AutoInstaller.exe 2) Plug in your PSP USB AND AC 3) Wait untill you have 75% battery. 4) Run the downloaded soft on your pc. 5) Choose 1.5 recovery. 6) Choose your PSP's memstick drive. Ex. (F:) 7) Wait utill the files are done copying 8) Turn on the PSP keeping the R trigger pressed. 9) Choose "Run Program at" Option. 10) Wait untill it asks for a manual restart and do it. 11) After the phony logo a blue screen indicating corrupted data should appear ,press X or O . 12) You should be back to 1.5. I went back from 3.03 OE-A second revision with this method ,also did my friend 10 minutes ago. I heard you can recover semi bricked PSP's this way ,Not shure. P.S: Do some research and stop posting idiotic "OH MOMMY I DID POOPIE PSP IS A PRETTY BLACK BRICK NOW" posts ,dammit ,if one person states a problem there's no freaking need of 10 follow ups saying the same thing ,it makes things for everybody more difficult to research ,its annoying and most of all YOU ARE NOT HELPING.

posted in the wrong thread

Sorry , that was supposed to go in the main thread , someone with administrative privileges please move it. Also: For mp3 playback while playing games you can use IRShell 3.1 , you can even mute the audio channels you want keeping the sound but not the music so you can use your own mp3. Some games don't load whit music playing on the background and of course it takes up a little processing speed. I don't know of any avi players or plugins for the psp ,been converting my files to 768 kbps mp4's using WinAVI mp4 to psp converter 3.1 ,then naming and moving them automatically whit PSPVideoManager. If you want subtitles they have to be embedded on the file before you convert it to MP4 ,and then they can't be deactivated,

Why are pll so worried about 'flashing' to you psp.

Educate yourself if you afraid of flashing. You should never be worried about flashing at all. Have you updated from an official sony update? Well news FLASH it just flashed your psp. Do they warn you of the dangers of flashing your psp? Hmmm probobly not as thuroughly as most downgraders do. Sony's works with only about 60% charge in the battery too. ( I suggest 75-100% ) If your not comfortable flashing your psp then you are an idiot with a risky piece of software. If your not then you obviously did your research on what it is and must have gotten it from a reliable source. If not your an idiot. btw to everyone 'waiting for a better version and holding on to their 1.5' your more outdated than my grandma's hairspray.

Sick of Q's but no A's

Everyone got questions, but no freakin' answers. For every 10 post here, 9 are questions, plus 1 is a nOOb who has nothing better to do than to brag. Out of 20 posts, 17 Questions, 1 answer, and 2 nOObs who brag how everything works for them! I guess you are all worthless helpers who need to ask the un-answered questions to a bunch of bragging nOObs who don't want to share the answers. This forum sucks, like the nOOb who brags, and the hundreds who ask them questions.
