3.30 Oh Yeah! - Image 1

You've probably seen the video, and made use of the information we've given about 3.30 Open Edition Revision A, but how about some friendly advice for the newcomers to our site, right? Well, we have a quick hyperlink guide for you guys to use if you're trying to decide between upgrading your PSP or not, as well as instructions on installing the new versions.

To find out whether or not using one type of customized firmware is right for you, you can check out Adiuvo's discussion of the pros and cons of the different firmwares, which is updated for Dark_Alex's 3.30 OE-A.

If you're thinking of downloading the custom firmware itself, why not let us help? Rica M. has our official coverage of the 3.30 OE-A release, download here.

If you're looking for some helpful tips on installing, as well as a full tutorial on upgrading to 3.30 OE from your specific firmware, you can check out this extensive guide we have for you.

Lastly, now that you've got a working 3.30, let the developers know if you've found any bugs that need fixing. Visit our consolidated Bug Report post and air out your problems.

you must have a firmware that can run homebrew. unfortunaltely, yours does NOT run homebrew (currently.) You must have at least a firmware of 1.5 to 3.10 OE-A' You cannot update to a custom firmware directly from an official firmware such as 3.11.

In short. You can't update to it (with your current firmware.) Sorry. If you wait long enough though, a downgrader may come for your psp firmware.

# im staying on 3.03 OE-C — Guest 2007-04-16 03:31

until i see that it really is better than 3.03 OE-C.

# no — Guest 2007-04-16 03:31

It says in the guide Read

# WHAT>?! — Guest 2007-04-16 03:34

what are you talking about? i know what i said.

# oh nvm. — Guest 2007-04-16 03:37

i think i understand what you are saying spyder52 .

# me too — Guest 2007-04-16 03:45

no reason to upgrade...........................

yet

# ok — Guest 2007-04-16 05:54

i ahvent seen a reason not to, a newer firmware, still supports custom icons, and doesnt have the problems when returning from sleep mode that 3.10 oe-a' did so why not upgrade

# bugs — Guest 2007-04-16 07:21

my psp freezes when trying to exit through HOME in my metal gear solid:portable ops UMD

# 3.30 downgrader — Guest 2007-04-16 07:33

So does anyone have a clue when they are going to come out with a downgraders. Sad to say, I have just recently found out that you can do all of this stuff with your psp and I am already upgraded to 3.30 sony.

# problems will come eventually. — Guest 2007-04-16 07:55

and the custom icons still do have probs. Can brick your psp if you have the wrong one.

and who knows,there might be more cons coming.

# dude. — Guest 2007-04-16 07:57

Why did you upgrade. You didn't know about homebrew or something? (makes sense) Sadly, it will take forever to downgrade a newer firmware. Every security hole is pretty much patched. The developers never really did hack it, just merely bypass the security.

# such as this... — Guest 2007-04-16 07:59

one more to the cons list.

# cwcheat — Guest 2007-04-16 09:03

cwcheat plugin doesn't work in 330oea. i'm going back to 3.10oea'

# QJ CA$$$HE$ IN!!! — Guest 2007-04-16 10:04

QJ making mad profit off this recent news. And they are smart too.

Make several update news before the real release, generate around 3000 jumps. Then post the real release generating an astounding 1300 jumps within 12 hours!!! Then continue the click-bait news with more OE updates!!

ROFL!!

Don't believe me?

I wonder how much $$$$ they made off Google ads. Anyone know how much Googal ads pay per click?

By the way QJ is one of the most bloated websites I've ever seen on the intreweb. Opera ask to disable google script for it to fetch QJ!!!

# 15 cents... — Guest 2007-04-16 10:18

They make like 15 cents per click. So its like 680 bucks or something... Jesus.

# Popsloader? Pal support? — Guest 2007-04-16 12:33

I read that the 3.30 OE-A there is a problem with the popsloader? does that mean that it can't play PSX games? or ISOS? and in the 3.10 OE-A DAX added PAL support to the psx emulator. is pal support like multi player option or what?

# help — whiteandnerdy201 2007-04-16 13:26

i just wanted to know if anybody knows if u can still upgrade fw with 3.30 0e-a?

# How do I play PS1 games? — Guest 2007-04-16 14:09

Do I need to get POPS and can I run them directly through the ISO folder now?

# modchip — Guest 2007-04-16 15:41

People just use a modechip to go to 1.50 and to 3.30 OE-A. I was at 3.11. http://www.modchipstore.com/ to buy one.

# HELP — Guest 2007-04-16 16:24

# i will answer all of your questions once i get on a pc. — Guest 2007-04-16 17:08

# thanks so much, butI'll wait — WACOMalt 2007-04-16 19:50

I defanitely will update SOMEday to a newer custom firmware, but 3.03 OEC is the best still according to me. custom icons, and no features yet to make me need 3.30.

if you get custom icons working again though for 3.30 OEB or something though, then you better bet you'll have my download.

# me — Guest 2007-04-16 22:31

i upgraded from 3.03 oe_c to 3.10 oe_a' because 3.03 oe_c cannot run 20gb ps3 remote play via home wifi, but the 3.10 oe_a' can. now i can browse on my psp using ps3 browser technology, flash9 yeah.

# SIMER DOWNNNNN!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! — Guest 2007-04-16 23:52

HEY! HEY! PPL! YOU GUYS NEED TO SIMER DOWN!!!!!!!!!!

# 3.10 Official Firmware to 3.30 OE? — Guest 2007-04-17 01:08

Can you upgrade / downgrade from Sony's official 3.10 to 3.30 OE?

Is there a 3.10 official downgrader yet?

Thanks...

# Google Ads — Guest 2007-04-17 04:12

I get about 5-15 cents per click on my site.

# POPS is already built-in the firmware. — Guest 2007-04-17 05:33

Im not sure about the 3.30 OE b/c it is still not clear on what is still built in and what is removed. In my case (a firmware 3.03 OE-C) I just put the eboot game (converted with a converter found here on dl.qj.net, and converts img. iso, CD, etc.) and place the file(s) in a folder located in PSP\GAME\*name of foleder*\EBOOT.pbp.

The iso folder is used for backed up games from the umd.

# No. — Guest 2007-04-17 05:39

You can't upgrade from an official firmware to a custom firmware. And you know the answer to the downgrader. If there is one then it will be all over the internet in seconds.

(Still not sure? The answer is no. Currently there is no word on any downgraders.)

# currently — Guest 2007-04-17 05:45

you can't. If you can somehow manage to combine the two discs then you might be able to do so.

# Seriously... — Guest 2007-04-17 05:48

Do you know how many people are able to mod a psp? Not that many compared to the newbies coming everytime. Besides, modchips can cause errors with a custom firmware so its not as good as a standard psp.

# cool — Guest 2007-04-17 06:18

^^^ thats cool. i like 330oe. some plugins dont work but newer versions will come out shortly.

# FF7 — Guest 2007-04-17 07:00

Getting some weird game breaking graphics errors in FF7, is anybody else?

# . — Guest 2007-04-17 07:12

Owned

# bugs — Guest 2007-04-17 07:46

there looks like too many bugs, im happy w/ bug free 3.03 oe-c and custom icons w/ no restrictions

# FF7 — Guest 2007-04-17 08:09

FFVII works in 3.30OE as good as in 3.03OE, 3.10OE

And al the cwcheatplugin users... ***** I N G G A Y CHEATERS

# FF8 — Guest 2007-04-17 08:13

# hmm Xenogears freezes in 3.30 OE-A P.O.P.S — Typhoonexhale 2007-04-17 14:28
