yaya, great remind!!.

just got my psp updated to 3.52 m33-2 from DA's OE custom firmware for the 1st time...i m quite impressed that it can really run iso without an umd in it...even iso like monster hunters too...

sure, and losing trust to game developers like Square Enix, Capcom to name a few. They even made their games not exclusively for Sony only but made available to other consoles as well. Right now many of them are leaping over the bridge if not in between. Besides Sony has actively working on copyright protection e.g. UMD, Blue-Ray, infamous rootkit CD etc so they are not going to do something silly to backdoor boost their hardware sales. Only their business rivals might possibly doing things like that. PSP games are lacking nowdays, we all know that. The game developers probably are waiting for the new PSP2 to surface in the market first.

Guys i need help , i am running 3.51 m33. I was running 3.40 oe-a before and i could run metal gear solid with a umd inside. Now after upgrading to 3.51 m33 i cant run metal gear solid at all even with a umd inside. Could you guys help me. I can run other games that do not need umd's like dexter or killzone but i cant run metal gear solid. GUys please help!!

I'm not sure about the exact solution, but what's the No-UMD Mode you're on?

(Why don't you update to 3.52 M33-2? )

The thing is i am not too sure how to update to 3.52 m33. How do i exactly update that ? and have any of u guys had this same problem? I dont think there is any mode in 3.51 . only enable and disable umd right?

It's very easy to update from V3.51 M33 to V3.52 M33.

Erm, yours is V3.51 M33 (first revision)? I suggest you upgrade to at least V3.51 M33-7 (revision 7) and change to No-UMD Mode to either M33 driver or Sony NP9660.

>>> 3.51 M33-7

>>> 3.52 M33

>>> 3.52 M33-2

(Important reminders:

1. To go from 3.51 M33 to 3.52 M33, you'll need a copy of the official 3.52 update EBOOT (any region's) and the official 1.50 update EBOOT (any region's).

>>> Official V1.50 update EBOOT

>>> Official V3.52 update EBOOT

2. Read the readme. Ask if you're not sure of anything. )

Thanks alot man.. appreciate it. Am at work now will try it later . Fingers crossed. I do not know what version it currently it.. it only states 3.51 m33

No probs. I think you're at the first revision.

(There are a few revisions for the V3.51 M33:

V3.51 M33
V3.51 M33-3
V3.51 M33-4
V3.51 M33-5
V3.51 M33-6
V3.51 M33-7

Two revisions to date for V3.52 M33:

V3.52 M33
V3.52 M33-2)

Anyway, I'd suggest you to go straight to V3.52 M33, rather than to V3.51 M33-7. After you're at V3.52 M33, go to V3.52 M33-2 (remember: you can't go straight to V3.52 M33-2 from V3.51 M33 without going to V3.52 M33 first. The steps are sequential.).

Good luck.

Well bro i updated to 3.52 m33 and basically i still cant play metal gear solid for nuts. SO what i am going to do is redownload the program and try again tomorrow.

Already change at no-umd option to Sony np9660?

Hi Guys, I have installed this 3.52 M33 into my 1GB memory stick.

So want to know if I want to use another memory stick, do I need to repeat the step to install 3.52 M33 or just simply copy the folders into the memory stick?

Last question, what is the key to overclock speed? I do not see any overclock instruction in the readme file.

no, u flash psp firmware not mspd. so use diff mspd also your psp will be 3.52 until u flash it again with other fw..

sorry, newbie here....search for a long time for my question but can't find any so post in here.

so i just need to copy the folder into another memory stick.

So do you know how to overclock the speed?

ashwin988: Shut down your PSP. Hold down R-trigger and power on your PSP. In Configuration, change UMD Mode to either M33 driver or Sony NP9660.

No no, this custom firmware (3.52 M33) is not installed on your memory stick. It's installed inside the flash memory of your PSP. So even if you remove your MSPD, your PSP will still run at V3.52 M33.

Shut down your PSP. Hold down R-trigger and power on your PSP. In CPU Speed, change the speed according to your desire.

crystal clear explaination..

Haha thanks bro. I think it's better to tell all at one shot rather than one by one, which is quite troublesome for all parties.

Hey guys one question eh, how good is the no-umd feature on the M33 eh? have not tried it before just wondering

why dont u compile all your helpful post to your psp for beginner? easier for them to refer again later.

@TerryZero
almost 100% compatible..
