PSP Custom Firmware 3.73 HX-1 now out!

Posted Dec 12, 2007 at 2:41PM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Firmware, Hacks & Exploits, Homebrew Development, News Tags: Custom Firmware, psp firmware, Sony

Following the announcement of the latest Sony PlayStation Portable firmware being successfully decrypted and a new custom firmware made out from it, Sony PlayStation Portable homebrew developer _HellDashX_ has finally given in and released PSP CFW 3.37 HX-1 into the wild. Tally ho, Sony PlayStation Portable homebrew enthusiasts!

So, what's new this time around? Apparently, not much, except for the fact that it's based on the most recent firmware that Sony has put out. It also seems that this release is still in beta form, with the release post notifying readers that should they encounter any bugs while using the firmware, they should report it posthaste.

Installing this particular firmware isn't difficult, but by no means should you not take it seriously (after all, this messes with the innards of your PSP). Simply unzip the downloadable archive into the root of your PSP, launch the Update 3.73 application, and simply follow the instructions displayed from there. Note that your PSP must at least be on Custom Firmware 3.71 or higher to be eligible for upgrade, and preferably hooked up to a stable power outlet.

Once again, please make sure that you're up to speed in updating Custom Firmwares before doing anything else, as any mistakes during the updating process could potentially brick your PSP.

I used it for it's Remote Play features, ISO compatibility, and the fact that it plays Beats.

_HelldashX_ is a great coder and deserves props for this one. I wish you would post his Donation link tho if he has one.

Thanks HDX, unfortunately I really enjoy playing PSone games ATM.

Will move up once I've had my fill.

Keep it up!

# Play BEATS?! — DCJoeDog 2007-12-12 16:32

# maybe — wolf0491 2007-12-12 18:17

# Good to know it's possible... — billylee8 2007-12-12 20:12

# need help — pspnoy 2007-12-12 21:50

wat is this? 3.73? or 3.37?

im on 3.72 and it wont do the update =(

# RE: need help — sKILLzkILLZ 2007-12-13 00:19

3.37?? Where did u get that from?:lol:

Are you on Sonys official 3.72 or 3.72 HX?

If you are on Sony; downgrade to 1.50 using Pandora Battery, then upgrade to 3.71 HX then to 3.73 HX if you want this? Also you may update to 3.71 M33 ;)

_HellDashX_ has finally given in and released PSP CFW (""""3.37 HX-1"""") into the wild. Tally ho, Sony PlayStation Portable homebrew enthusiasts! XXXXXXDDDDDD

# Plays Beats? — FreePlay 2007-12-13 01:40

Liar. Nobody has cracked the NPDRM engine yet, and m33 have no intention of doing it.

# There is no 3.37 — superanimefreak 2007-12-13 01:57

There is no 3.37 there is just a typo on the home page it is 3.73 not 3.37 I hope QJ fixes this it looks bad.

# Beats is Playable — vitz3 2007-12-13 06:47

I bought and downloaded the full game from the PC PSN store. It is playable and totally works with HX firmware.

# 1.50 — PolishPride 2007-12-13 07:25

Does anyone know if the 1.50 kernel is all ready installed or does the copy and paste trick from 3.72 HX-1 still work?

# FW 3.73 HX-1 — marktec71 2007-12-13 20:41

Hi! 1.5 kernel . No work. Sony boot up logon missing. Found no Recovery mode. VSH menu on reset device crashes PSP. Would not play PSX or demo PBP games even with LICENCE folder in PSP root. Found no improvement to UMD software upgrade. Using 3.52 CFW asks you to 3.6 slim is installed! Later,game-on.

# 1.50 availability... — TrueTenacity 2007-12-14 02:02

Hmmm anyone know when there will be a 1.50 add-on.... need it to play my homebrew games... :-(

# 1.5 patch — marktec71 2007-12-14 16:11

Yes,Install Peek-a-Boo 1.5 kernal patch for CFW3.73 HX-1. Missing Recovery menu returns!
