Stuck pixels yes, dead pixels no.

There is a 50-50% chance it might work or it might not so dont be getting your hopes up high just yet.

Personally tried the program before. Does not work for me. But many good comments said that it worked for them..Maybe it depends on luck..

Crisis Core is meant to be bootable on 3.60 Firmware. In that case, i think it will most probably be bootable on 3.70 as well without any problem..

I am just wondering, why is there any difference between firmware for the Slim and the Fat version?

I mean, they are both basically the same system with some exceptions but is there any specific reason why custom firmware for the Slim would not work on the Fat version?

maybe the difference lies in the memory size different, the slim ver homebrew may be coded to optimize the additional memory

it just like computer softwares... no different if u are using 512mb or 8gb of ram in your computer.. it still the same software.. it just the hardware itself that do the job. maybe for psp.. the firmware inside tell how to allocate those programs inside the ram. maybe laaa....
*
Well, in that case, i guess there will only be optimization of the extra ram rite? Meaning, when M33 comes out with the 3.60 firmware, PSP fat are able to use it?

The point for me is, why is there a 3.70 firmware that is ONLY for the FAT instead of the Slim? Wouldn't they be on the same hardware + some additional ram feature?

So, I'm coming to Malaysia in 2 weeks. Can I buy a hacked PSP slim and for how much? I just spent 2 hrs surfing to understand it all and I'm still confused!

I dont even know if I can play officially bought games in Asia on a US Machine (or vice versa)!

If anyone knows, how much will a hacked PSP Slim in Low Yat/S. Wang set me back? How about em games?

Thanks!

OK, this is how it goes..

AFAIK, games on the PSP are region free. Thus, no matter where you buy the PSP from, you will still be able to buy and play games anywhere around the world irregardless of region. Thus, you do not need to get specific region PSP. However, this does not applies to UMD movies though..

As off now, i am pretty sure most of the PSP Slim available on sale now are not on CFW. Thus, you will still need to wait for it to arrives. Heck, the last time i check, even M33 site is stating they are "coming soon" instead of released. Therefore, just wait for it to arrive and do it on your own. If not, when its here, i do feel people will jack up the price of the PSP Slim..

Games wise, i dont think there will be any difference between games for PSP Slim or the Fat version. So, they would roughly be around RM50 - RM180. Other "ahem" games, i think you will have your way of finding it..

Hope this helps..

I dont think 3.60 M33 can be used on fat version rite? unsure.gif
3.70 is fatty's exclusive, there still some differences between both PSPs, tv out and battery control may need some level of firmware control

3.60M33 is out now - they said is for slim only...

I think 3.70 firmware is tailored to suit the hardware of the fat ver. which doesn't have the extra RAMs (is this where the NANDs are?) and video output. So, different hardware. It's like having a D-Link devices, for a device, let's say a wireless router AirPlus G+ 2.4GHz model, i think they have several builds (and each build different firmwares, don't flash using other build's firmware it will brick your wireless router) for that even tho all the models do the same thing and look exactly the same (same interface, same casing, etc). Its the inner hardware which differentiates them.

One question tho, how do games tell which firmware the PSP is using and how do they verify it? Can't we just change the string of the firmware to play games which require certain firmwares?

Thanks for the clarification here..

But in this case, IF we look at things backwards now, do you guys see any problem for PSP Slim firmware to work on the PSP Fat?I mean, OK, there are some features that might not be function on the PSP Fat and yes, the ram optimization part will be some problem but in theoretical term, it would still be usable on the Fat version right?

Well, IF you are SONY, there is already no point for you in continuing to produce the PSP fat since the PSP Slim is already out. I don't see SONY abondoning the PSP Fat real soon by discontinuing the firmware producing as there are still quite a number of PSP Fat user out there. My guess is, they will slow it down until everyone switches to the PSP Slim

Damn, how i wish they make an announcement that the Slim firmware is usable on the Fat.

Seriously, there is a PSP2 ? blink.gif

I mean, just after the launch of the Slim, are Sony really fool enough to announce a PSP2?


Anyway, anyone tried the 3.70 firmware yet?Any difference from the 3.5X version?

Those that are on 3.71M33, is there any significant advantage / disavantage with this firmware?

I will be going back hometown this weekend and might bring it to flash into this firmware from my 3.51M33-7.. smile.gif
