For owners of Phat and Slim PSP's alike, a new Firmware has been released by Dark Alex. Importantly, a bug fix in the form of 4.01 M33-2 followed almost instantly, and, FOR PHAT OWNERS ONLY a 1.50 Kernel add-on was also released, to support homebrew based on this firmware. A good example of this is the PSP VLC binaries which rely on 1.50 Kernel Add-ons. In this post I will show you how, and where to get the firmwares, thanks to the amazing Dark Alex, and the Exophase forums and also some good links to easy install guides.


WARNING - You must have 3.52M33-3 or above, or an Open Edition Firmware to apply this update. You have been warned.

Esteemed homebrew developer Dark_AleX has released PSP custom firmware 4.01 M33. In addition to minor bug fixes, this edition of the M33 firmware series of course brings 4.01 kernel support, complete with multi-language support for Recovery Mode. Instructions can be found in the included readme on how to translate the recovery text to your native language. And no, this release does not include in-XMB recovery or savestate support. As Alek noted last week, those enhancements are still planned but will likely be added in a forthcoming update.

As usual, the firmware update can be applied directly via Network Update if you are running a previous release from 3.80 M33 and onward, or by following the manual installation instructions below, provided that you have a homebrew capable PSP.

* Extract the archive. * Copy included UPDATE folder to X:/PSP/GAME
* Place the official firmware 4.01 update EBOOT, named as 401.PBP, in the newly created UPDATE folder
* Begin installation from the Game menu.
If you require a more in-depth installation walkthrough, look here. Additionally, a 4.01 M33 specific 1.5 kernel add-on is due to be released within the next couple days, possibly tonight.

Yes, you can. As long as your current CFW version is above 3.52, you can use this update.
