Dark AleX's Despertar del Cementerio v3 - PSP Slim screen support, 3.71 M33-2 installation

Posted Oct 4, 2007 at 11:12AM by Karl B. Listed in: Homebrew Applications Tags: Dark AleX, Sony

Dark AleX has released a new updated version of the Despertar del Cementerio universal unbricker. This particular unbricker works for both the Slim and Fat models of Sony's PlayStation Portable handheld video game console.

According to Dark AleX, this new update is mainly to support the PSP Slim's screen in the mixed 1.50/3.40 kernel used during recovery. This is also a pretty big step towards 1.50 kernel support in the PSP Slim since the main problem - the screen - is now fixed. Here's a full changelog:

Coded a display driver that supports the psp slim screen in the mixed 1.50/3.40 kernel.
The M33 installation will install 3.71 M33-2, not 3.71 M33

The download's below. Please remember to read the bundled readme file before using this homebrew app. You can also hit the Visit link below to discuss this release on our PSP Development Forums.

# NICE!!! — xi-bit 2007-10-04 07:00

great work!

# Awesome! — that1bander 2007-10-04 07:16

Thanks Dark AleX. You are the bee's knees.

I don't suppose you are working on a Non-Pandora way to get homebrew on the Slim, are you? A lot of us would be eternally grateful for that.

Again, great work, man.

# . — FearEvil19 2007-10-04 07:22

thank you DAX!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!

# Great! — KakTOC 2007-10-04 07:35

Very very NICE!

Thank you DA!

# DAX,... — Ash735 2007-10-04 07:36

The Hideo Kojima of the Homebrew World, seriously, I thought he was leaving after his final update like 3 updates ago!

It's like Hideo Kojima who said MGS2 was going to be his last! Hmm, maybe DAX is secretly Hideo!

# kernel on Slim would be so sweet.... — prime 2007-10-04 07:43

DGen 1.7 and SNES TYL 4.2 ME on Slim would be the ultimate..

# woohoo — zster21 2007-10-04 07:44

Wow DAX I seriously thought you retired for good but this is the 3rd time you've surprised me

# Dark AleX... — urherenow 2007-10-04 07:50

Do you have a PHD in this stuff or what? Or at least a Master's? You're the Aaron Giles of the PSP world, and that says a lot because I wish I had HALF the programming mind he does. I'd shine your shoes (or his) with my tongue just to be able to spend a weekend watching you program and see how the heck you figure this stuff out!

Don't ever quit because... there isn't anybody left who doesn't praise you!

# .. — Pwn3r1001 2007-10-04 08:13

i know snes is on the slim already..not sure about dgen tho

# Nice — The Uncreated 2007-10-04 08:48

Very nice update, however, my fat will never leave 3.52 M33-4 and Slim will never see anything above 3.60 M33 unless custom (homebrew) themes have been sorted out.

- T

# WOW! — SkipperWarlock 2007-10-04 09:22

This is incredible. Just when I think you can't release something more than your last project, something 10+times more amazing is released by you. Keep it up man, you'll have the PSP Slim completely patched for the 1.50 kernel in no time :)

# ... — FreePlay 2007-10-04 10:06

They have been...

# Nice! — JThompsonXTreme 2007-10-04 10:28

Another step towards 1.50 kernel on the slim ehh?

# gonna try it — TheJackThompson 2007-10-04 11:08

just purposely bricked my psp, gonna try this now

# Ah it is not working! — Nikolaos 2007-10-04 11:19

mine says, ''formatting flash0...'' but does not move from there, I followed readme.

# true — prime 2007-10-04 11:20

But not the ME version, and everything involving mode7 (FF3, Chronotrigger, F-Zero, etc etc) runs significantly faster on the ME version..

# update — Drake56 2007-10-04 11:36

You know you can go to us.playstation.com to get too right. thats where i got mine from.

# Eh. — LordSturm 2007-10-04 13:59

Just get your hands on a friend with a normal PSP, and do him the favour of enhancing his PSP, then do the same for your own.

Don't just lie there in wait, it's hopeless. :(

# try it — Drake56 2007-10-04 14:02

dont you jay its going to mess it up!!!!

# firmware — Drake56 2007-10-04 14:08

i already have this firmware i got it with tthe pack. for any jay who would actually do this dont!!!!!!! because it is a wast of time . im like jeez what is it with all these time wasters when you can just go to playstation

# dumm — Drake56 2007-10-04 14:10

dumm

# it works — TheJackThompson 2007-10-04 14:31

duh, it works.

i restored default settings, and made another magic stick. this time 3.71 official installed last time flash1 was screwed up so it would freeze right after the cold boot.

# firmware — Drake56 2007-10-04 14:41

excuse me! i already knew that. thank you very much! i know these things to. and it doesnt work

# drake... — urherenow 2007-10-04 18:17

what exactly do you mean by "it doesn't work?"

Your brain perhaps?

it works perfectly fine. and what can you do by going to playstation? Install the official firmware? You're in the wrong place buddy.

# slim — Lawthugg 2007-10-04 19:55

ok this says the display now works on the slim. Is anyone having problems with this. I did everything the proper way as before but i still cant get it to work. what exactly do i have to replace

# urherenow... — Drake56 2007-10-04 23:41

naw son playstation is the best and this firmware doesnt work. maybe its your brain that is not working man. i was in the right place actually.

# firmware — Drake56 2007-10-04 23:43

for the smart people it doesnt work im telling ya dont try it it will jack your system up unlike some people(urhereno w) but all you have to do is to go to playstation got it!

# urherenow — Drake56 2007-10-04 23:59

look man you shouldnt im smarter just dont go and get your brain checked you might find some dust under there. but any ways i can tell anyone how to get as well but not for urherenow. and one last thing go to school urherenow and everything will work all for the better!!!!

# . — Mister Common Sense 2007-10-05 01:37

Dgen 1.7 was already ported to the slim

# Stupid people — natalic 2007-10-05 02:53

You probably don't even have any form of homebrew enabled. You probably copied the PBP to an official 3.71 and said "IT DOESN'T WORK"...God as for getting brains checked, you're first in line.

# Dark Alex — yungglock 2007-10-05 07:11

DAMM.. GREAT STUFF!!! DARK ALEX IS THE PSP KING OF KINGS!!!!

THE PSP Should be renamed THE DAX HANDHELD!! LOL!!

# natalic — Drake56 2007-10-05 11:17

you jay. you're first in line for brain checking. go get a life. for your information i do have the homebrew. look, go find a hobby or something! your the one thats retarted and second of all you dont know what i did at playstation.

# Works — sawtryboy 2007-10-05 11:23

Install can be tempremental but it does work. Install and if you get the sony logo followed by nothing enter recovery mode and delete/reset Flash 1....

# just when you think people couldn't get any dumber... — urherenow 2007-10-05 23:44

and Idiot on a web forum whips out the Ph.D. is retarded. Not only does it work (if you have more than 3 brain cells to figure it out) it's the best damn firmware there ever was! The only thing you get from sony is official firmware that won't let you run homebrew code. Let's see what I play on my PSP:

PSP games, PS1 Games, Movies, Pictures, music... ok perhaps you've figured that much out

now theres:

NES, SNES, N64, ATARI, Commodore 64, CPS2 and a few other arcade machines, Sega Genesis, a universal remote control...

no need to list more. You go ahead and get your crap from the playstation web site and do any of those things.

Go back to school? Heh... I probably graduated from school before you were born, dip *****

# thanks sawtry... — urherenow 2007-10-05 23:58

now that I think about it, that could be a reason for Drake being such an idiot about all of this. He doesn't have the capacity to figure out that you need to format flash 1.

and Drake... about this "you dont know what i did at playstation" I know you're too young and stupid to have ever worked for SONY Because, again, anyone with half a brain who actually worked there would say "you have no idea what I do at Sony!" Not at Playstation. Playstation is not a place... lol And... a Sony employee wouldn't admit on an open forum to having homebrew on his/her PSP.. or since you said "what I DID at playstation", perhaps you did work there but were so stupid they had to fire you.

# Thanks — J0539h 2007-10-06 00:52

Thanks DAX. Welcome back (maybe??)

# urherenow — Drake56 2007-10-06 01:07

wow. i didnt know that someone who graduated out of school before me would have such limited vocabulary as to step down and cuss like that. you sure are smart(sarcastic ly speaking). and plus i dont work at sony at all genius. enough of this already and why dont you just grow up and go back to school because unfortunately you sound like you were a highschool dropout. If your way worked for you .....MORE POWER TO YA!!!!!! dip *****!

# Drake56 — SCLakitu 2007-10-06 07:51

And you are quite the eloquent speaker yourself right? Stop acting smart when you can't even use proper punctuation or capitalization. Also, you're a hypocrite. Talking about someone cursing when you curse yourself, even in your same exact post.

3.71 M33-2 is DIFFERENT from official firmware. It allows the ability to run unsigned code, homebrew (as in, games made by the PSP fanbase), ISOs, plugins, theme customization and XMB hacks, and many more things. It's way better than official firmware will ever be. So stop preaching about how official firmware is better, because in the homebrew scene it will fall on deaf ears.

# SCLakitu — urherenow 2007-10-06 10:18

speaking of punctuation... why does your posts with apostrophies look normal? Every time I use them they get a backslash in front of them. just to test again: can't

# nevermind — urherenow 2007-10-06 10:29

when I leave and come back the backslash is gone. so wierd...

# Use this as a downgrader? — calebio 2007-10-07 07:13

If i replaced the 371.PBP in the root directory with 351.PBP or 352.PBP, would Despertar del Cementerio install that instead of 3.71?

I had all these nice homebrew apps (PDA, PSPoste, pikey) running on 3.52 and they don't seem to work under 3.71 now. I can't figure out any way to downgrade back to 3.52.

Thanks!

# no need to downgrade — urherenow 2007-10-07 09:01

But you can do it using the original pandora. Just use that to install the partial 1.5 and install 3.52 m33 then update3 then update4. What you really NEED to do is install the 1.5 patch V2. With that installed everything that works in other firmwares will work in this one.

# hallelujah! — calebio 2007-10-07 10:36

thanks, urherenow! that worked. now if pikey would just work....

# glad I could help — urherenow 2007-10-07 11:34

not sure what pikey is though

# pikey — calebio 2007-10-07 13:16

pikey is a plugin that allows the use of IR keyboards with the PSP. it's very useful for the apps.

http://www.noobz.eu/joomla/news/pikey-0.3-release---3.40-oe-support.html

so i've now taken your first approach and used regular pandora to get back to 3.52. The only tricky part was that my regular memory stick was still formatted for 3.71 so it wouldn't boot. I had to copy the m33 3.52 creator from the recovery memory stick and run it again for that memory stick.

# Battery? — Jpe 2007-10-07 21:37

Just wondoring, do you need to do anything to a battery for this? I only have one battery on me at the moment.

In the readme it says:

- Now you have an universal pandora ms ready to go, and you just need a proper battery.

I just want to confirm that you dont need a hacked battery.

Thanks.

# You need a jigkick battery — calebio 2007-10-08 10:06

The only change to the battery is the internal serial. The LE Recovery prx for M33 firmware makes it very easy to convert between the two (you can revert to a regular battery). But you might have some trouble booting into your restored system to revert the battery. It would be much easier to get a second battery; check amazon dot com for good deals.

# what I did — urherenow 2007-10-08 17:49

was buy a 2200mAh battery for my PSP and use the original one for pandora. DO NOT try to make a pandora out of a SLIM battery!

# confirmed — iamback(unregistered) 2007-10-09 11:20

I've confirmed that this guy is using this unbricker. Now, if only he'd update his listings page

http://stores.ebay.com/PSP-Unbricker

Tell him his forum friend sent you.

# i hate you — iamback(unregistered) 2007-10-09 11:23

die, jack thompson! playing video games do not make us want to reenact them! if you dare to compare violence to video games, i will step next to you, within sweeping distance, and press forward, down, forward, and press A so that I can rip off your head, just like subzero does. just to prove that video game violence is not emulated by us.

# oh, well here's what I did — iamback(unregistered) 2007-10-09 11:26

Here's what I did:

I downloaded the programs, along with the eboot updates and whatnot.

then, I went to http://stores.ebay.com/PSP-Unbricker

and the guy made me a kit. it worked, and now I can listen to music on my psp. i can even look at pictures!

# pwned sauce — iamback(unregistered) 2007-10-09 11:29

by the way, guys, drake56 is what we call a troll. he knows perfectly well how to run this app, but he just wants to get some attention by getting replies from other forum members. He (maybe even she) is not getting enough positive attention in real life, so he/she is willing to act stupid to get attention here (even if it's negative, and even if it's for a forum). So, just ignore him/her, and he/she'll go away.

http://stores.ebay.com/PSP-Unbricker

# apostrophes — iamback(unregistered) 2007-10-09 11:32

Yes, I too have the backslash issue. But, it goes away, so I've decided to ignore it. It's probably bad programming on behalf of pspupdates.qj.net

http://stores.ebay.com/PSP-Unbricker

# or — iamback(unregistered) 2007-10-09 12:03

just do this: it's cheaper than buying a new battery:

http://stores.ebay.com/PSP-Unbricker

# jamback — Drake56 2007-10-09 12:54

actually im getting alot of positive attention, maybe even from your mom sometimes. so what you said didnt work.

# SAGE — SCLakitu 2007-10-09 14:54

You're so original.

Get out.

# SCLakitu — Drake56 2007-10-09 23:25

well look whos talking. you coudnt make some one laugh if your life depended on it. dude your the one who is original. GET THAT OUTTA HERE!!!! why dont you go to a comedy club and gain some experiance.

# sage — SCLakitu 2007-10-10 03:13

You can't even spell experirence.

# Experience — SCLakitu 2007-10-10 03:15

Typoes, lulz.

# sclakitu — Drake56 2007-10-10 23:12

O.K. preppy. You want to talk about grammer so much like a little nerdy language arts teacher. Go get a life quit looking at my spelling and watch your moms. I'm sooo sorry for your dumness, but you suck at trying to be funny.

# HELP ^_^ — jadenx 2007-10-15 08:14

Hey guys my psp bricked and i have this new Dark_Alex software Despertar del Cementerio v3 when i put the battery and the MS the menu comes out when i click x and its starts to flash0 it stops there aby help Thanks in advanced

drake56..sony(like the bastards they are) keep updating the firmware. so latecomers see this article and try getting it off the sony website but are unable to. that's why they have like every eboot ever submitted on this site

# .. — Pwn3r1001 2007-10-15 12:02
