hello i am a psp that is in firmware 3.52 m33 and i cannot seem to launch any homebrew games. I noe how to do it because ive been doing it for bout a year now. Recently i launched a game that worked fine many times before and when my psp reached the logo that u get when u press x on a game it froze right after the logo went away. I tried this out with other games but they all have the same problem. Can anyone help me please.....

are you using 3.52 m33-4? if not upgrade to that.

if it's still freezing, then you might have to recover to 1.50 and reinstall 3.52 m33-4.

well i was at 3.40 oe-a when this problem happened. Then i recovered down to 1.5 and installed 3.40oe-a again to see if the problem would be fixed and it didnt. So then from 3.40 oe-a i went to 3.52 m33. I dont really noe how to go to 3.52 m33-4...but do u think that will solve my problem...because recovery didnt. Also, the last homebrew application taht i put on my psp was remotejoy. and i also tried formatting my memory stick. and nothing helped. My SNES emulator works perfectly and my umd game that i have also works perfectly...Its juss the downloaded homebrew games that freeze right after the sony logo...

ok try reformatting your psp flash1 in recovery. to do this go to recovery then choose advanced then choose the format flash1 option. if that doesnt work try going into configuration and change the umd mode to the Sony NP9660 driver. also where did you buy your memory stick and have you ever done any pandoras battery stuff.

well i just finished recovering my psp and i installed 3.40 oe-a to see if the problem is still there and it was...then i updated to 3.52 m33 and the it was still like that...same exact problem as the video i posted up on youtube...however after that i updated to 3.52 m33-4 and suddenly some games started to work...i noticed that the only games that work are generally older games in most cases...i tried playing most games and they worked and the ones that didnt were nba live 08, nba 08, manhunt 2, family guy and some other ones...Also, whenever i start a different game such as virtua tennis 3 it works fine, but when i exit, my wallpaper and everything gets changed to the waves...and i had vsh menu turned on and then that got turned off...i went to recovery and saw that 'hard reset on homebrew' was enabled and vsh was disabled and some other ones were out of place, so i changed that all back to my preferences...however whenever i started a game, those options in recovery would all go back to what they were originally and hard reset on homebrew will be turned on...therefore the old problem got changed into a new one once i upgraded to update 4 for 3.52 m33...if you guys want me to make a video of this and post up a link for youtube, just ask.

don't switch from OE to m33 firmware; that can cause problems. what you should do is download chilly willy's keycleaner and let it fix any corrupted keys.

if that doesn't work, then you should recover to 1.50, run the keycleaner and update STRAIGHT to 3.52 m33, and then 3.52 m33-4.


the games that don't play might require higher firmware, therefore you'd have to upgrade to 3.71 m33-3. but in order to get to 3.71 m33, the psp must be on 3.52 m33-3 or m33-4 already, or you can use the universal unbricker to go straight to 3.71 m33-2. you'll have to apply the 3.71 m33-3 patch and 1.50 v2 addon.
