They did crack version 3.11, and it is ready for a downgrader and custom firmware and what not, but there isn't any actually beneficial "update" that is good enough to warrant the release of a new custom firmware so Dark_Alex is holding off on releasing that stuff. If you think about it he is doing something pretty smart. I'd say less than 3% of all psps have version 3.11 (sorry that you do) and since everyone was able to downgrade their psp at firmware 3.03 a while back, most people have been able to load custom firmware and everything.

My advice to you: just wait for a bit until Sony adds something nice to their firmware. The firmware will get cracked, and then you will be able to downgrade for all the goodies.

Hey there people, i am sorry to trouble you guys..but could you help me out abit here DarkPacMan77? I have a 3.02 software and i can play .ISO games, does this mean i can also play other homebrew games / apps designed for 1.5?

I have just bought my PSP recently in indo..at the system information, it is written as "System Software 3.02 OE-B"
At the games section in my Memory Stick, i have these programes
1. "Return to 1.5 from FW2.xx"
2. "Device hook PSP Firmware Emulator"

If i want to use apps designed for 1.5 (such as a PSP Alarm V0.5), what should i do? Downgrade to 1.5 and Download Dark_Alex's firmware 3.10?

Appreciate all the help i can get, thnx in advanced!

I suggest you upgrade to version 3.03 oe-c. It is nice and easy as long as you follow instructions CLOSELY. I have made a master list of good information for newbies like yourself, it is called the "Master Guide to all Tutorials" and it will help you out a lot.

You need to learn some basics, but in short, you don't need to downgrade to play stuff that is "dedicated for version 1.50". The custom firmware versions can do that as it is. I suggest 3.03 oe-c b/c it is the best right now.

If you wanted to use psp alarm you would have to download the program, then place the files where they are supposed to be. You will find out how to install homebrew if you read the readme.txt file that comes with psp programs. Nearly all homebrew will be loaded in that same way.

I'd like to help you out more, but maybe you don't even know how to use Winzip or Winrar (they are programs for the PC). If you don't know how to use them, I suggest learning THAT first.

Thanx
