Hi guys,
Like myself, seen a lot of people with CFW trying to load Homebrews on their 8GB Memory Sticks but can't get it to work pass the 4GB limit mark.
Finally got it to work last night, so thought I share it hopefully it would help some people having similar issues seeing how 8GB sticks are getting cheaper everyday. It's actually quite simple.

The Homebrews were not working pass the 4gb mark due to the 1.5 kernel only supporting up to 4gb, anything above causes error in the memory address. So just remember, DO NOT USE Homebrew softwares using 1.5 kernel..DONE!! Simply put, install 3.xx or emulators for the PSP Slim(3.xx) and problems solved.

For example,

On my 3.71 M33-3 PSP FAT, I use the following Homebrew for 8GB compatiblity.

NES - NESTERJ NES Emulator 1.11 RM

GBA - Unofficial gpSP Kai v3.2 Test 8.5

So as long as you are using 3.xx emulators, the 4GB limit is no more.
Remember to put the emulators in your GAME371 folder instead of the game150. Some emulators might need you to place the ROM files under the game150 or game folder but that's no biggie. Just remember to put the emulators in the game371 folder.

This is probably known to some, but I couldn't find any guides. So hopefully this will save fellow users some time that doesn't know about it yet. Please feel free to comment.


Homebrews for daysssss!!
