WARNING: Firmware modifications can potentially damage your PSP beyond repair. Use this at your own risk.
Within
the past few days, PSP owners were kept on the edge of their seats by
reports of FW 3.40 in South Korea and in Japan. Well, soon enough, the
latest firmware version for the Sony handheld soon reached North
American shores, and without fail, coders and homebrew devs set to work
on it immediately. And who else would keep the ball rolling but
Dark_AleX?
Well, now that the whole community is in motion
again, the great DAX is leading the pack and has just produced a couple
of more updates. The first is the release of custom firmware 3.40 OEA,
and for this update, he notes the following improvements that were made
from 3.30 OE-A to 3.40 OE-A:
- Updated from 3.30 firmware to 3.40
- Security
patch: Fixed a bug that has been in all 3.XX OE, that caused random
data to be written to a location in lcdc.prx or (in worst case)
emc_sm.prx ram space.
- Autboot that is missing since 3.03 OE-C has been reimplemented.
- Improvements
in the flasher. It will now generate also the flash1 directories, and
it will check that the dxar is the correct for this update, so no more
bricks by accidentally using other DATA.DXAR.
Meanwhile, he has also updated 3.30 OE-A to 3.30 OE-A', and in THAT update, the following fixes were implemented:
- Security
patch: Fixed a bug that has been in all 3.XX OE, that caused random
data to be written to a location in lcdc.prx or (in worst case)
emc_sm.prx ram space.
- Autboot that is missing since 3.03 OE-C has been reimplemented.
Now
isn't that a lot to be happy about? In any case, as usual, ALWAYS READ
THE README FIRST before you try to install any of these, as DAX has
included some important installation instructions for both updates.
Remember, you want to prolong the life of your PSP, and not shorten it,
okay?
