How to: Install CFW v3.51 M33 |
Ó
Do you find yourself confused and befuddled when it comes to installing your custom firmwares to your PSP? Neophyte PSP owners will be happy to know that Moose_Island over at the QJ.Net Forums was kind enough to set up a CFW installation guide for their benefit. This tutorial is written specifically for the recently released CFW v3.51 M33 by Team M33, and details fw's installation for either PSP fw 1.50, or other OE firmwares.Before you get started, just make sure to have at least 75% left on your PSP's battery, a copy of the CFW 3.51 M33 file, and a USB cable to hook up your PSP to the PC. As a brief recap, here are the current functions that CFW v3.51 M33 carries:
- Ability to alter the CPU speed of the PSP
- Recovery mode
- Multi-region
- Customize all your icons and more

DUUDE!
i've been holding back on installing this CFW cause i've heard many bugs about this CFW...i'll wait untill the other "unknown" hackers make their version of CFW that MAY be better than Dark Alex's work.
Pwning n00bs.
I soooooooo staying with Dark_Alex firmware
I don't trust M33. They can suck my right nut if they force me to update.
ignorant and idiotic... what is there not to trust? Its been verified by LOTS of people that its working and 100% safe.... you're just being a dumb fanboy
Dark_Alex is gone man. Get over it and move on. Stop riding D_A's D!CK.
thankyou for making this guide and thankyou to everyone who continues to develop for the psp homebrew community.
if you dont like someones work why not suggest a way for them to improve it or better still develop something yourself instead of being jerkoffs and bagging people out.
always good to have a nice guide. installing tonight!
lol,
obligitory:
In russia h4x0rz pwns Dark Alex!!
"Customize all your icons and more" - I keep hearing that when people try to customize Icons they get simi-bricks. So then how is it done? Also how does one go about freeing up space in Flash 0 on this new fw???
what kinda icons and XMB custom themes are compatible with this Russian thingy?
I mean do I use all 3.40 icons and theme flasherers?
thanks
If people still think it's really hard, they're pretty dense considering you install it exactly the same way you did with all the old CFW's.
This firmware is totally awesome
but there it one thing if you update the WLAN fix delete the se conifg
at least thats what I had to do.
anyway...how hard could this possibly be?! its simpler than OE.
I dont get it.
Maybe you try complete sentences next time?
look at the recovery menu...its IDENTICAL to OE's. and all themes and features are the same as OE firmwares. Either someone reversed engineered OE and made it compatible wit h the 3.51 kernel or this is DaX's work.
I know there should be someone continuous Dark AleX's work!!!!!!!!!!! !!!
NICE WORK TEAM M33!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!
NOW I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY THAT MY PSP IS GOING TO BE USELESS LOLOLOLOOLOL!!! !!!!!!!!!!!! !!
if I flash this, and another CFW comes out will I be able to flash that, overriding M33?
its just like OE. If the new installer for a future custom firmware properly formats the flash0 and the ipl then it will be just fine.
I am a noob, and i needed help installing m33, so i went to psphacking101.
they have the best guide, better then this atleast, this on is good, but the one i used is awe some

or
http://www.psphacking101.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10454
OE with a different name
M33 SUX compared to OE firmware
Can anybody please tell me how to enter in the recovery
menu?thanks
you have to press and hold R and than turn on your PSP
Why the impressive amounts of children on QJ?
Leave M33 alone, their CFW is brilliant.
If you have nothing productive to comment on, DONT COMMENT.
DUDE.... way to go M33,,, butt this CF wont work on 3.51 FW will ittt?? Anyone know please I would arppreciate the response
whenever I try to boost the speed of the XMB and the UMD/ISO speed, as soon as I exit the recovery console, I get a blue screen...anyone know how to raise the speed, wothout blue screening?
guys, is this firmware compatible with DA's recovery files? say, if i wanted to recover back to 1.5 again? i noticed that the recovery mode of this fw is identical to DA's so i'm assuming it will still need the same recovery files as DA's fw. still, i want to know if some of you guys have tried downgrading from this fw to 1.g again? thanks for all the info.
God who wants to install M33? its *****ty!
dude can you downgrade back to 1.5
I can confirm Cavestory is not working on my PSP
-_-
nvm I had a corupt eboot
it works no need to be alarmed
I found that if you actually take the homebrew that's not working a rewrite it to the memstick it will usually resolve issues with this firmware.
I don't know why but Cavestory wasn't working I took it off and put it back on and it worked
also I think it has somthing to do with changing 3.XX firmware Folder or whatever you were at and changing it to 3.51
Just somthing I found that made 2 of my homebrew games work. Quake2 and Cave Story
Well if this is not a stolen/or reverse engg. of D_A work.. The region spoofing or Fake region should work.
Because Dark_Alex never succeeded to hack the Region Lock for Movies....
Lets see and watch. I would like to get the comments from other M33 fw users about this when they play other regions UMD Movies in PSP

Is it really that hard to install a *****ing CFW? Put two eboots with the correct names in one folder and run the update maker, then run the installer. In fact, it's easier than installing OE.
I think i will stay on 3.40 OE, later, i will only copy 3.51's remote play modules and copy them to 3.40, that's all.
freewebs.com/hellomynameisps p
theres a *****ing readme, how stupid do you have to be to need a second guide to install something, idiots
the firmware is great though, using it right now :)
hey dudesw i still wanna know if you can dowgrade to 1.5?
I was just wondering if there are any recovery files for this new firmware. I don't want to install it until I see some recovery files ( like the ones in 3.40 oea ) with it. because if the new CFW doesn't work well. I want to able to go back to oe.
Anyone know if there is a recovery. Thanks in advance.
i have 2 agree we need OE fw. i cant trust m33 yet. D_A has given me all the OE fw i have and im not ready to trust m33 yet.
