please make sure if you are upgrading to gen firmware you are already on 5.00m33-6
5.50 GEN-A
5.50 GEN-B
5.50 GEN-B2
5.50 GEN-D
5.50 GEN-D2
5.50 GEN-D3
ALT mega upload link Click here
thanks to peluynati for posting the first link to 5.50 GEN-D3
did not post 5.50 GEN-C as lots of people reporting bricking with this firmware, you can go from -B2 straight to -D

running 5.50 GEN-D2 no problems now, little big planet works great

Thanks for the links (I really needed them)
But Why cant you go from:

Gen A - B - C - D - D2

I mean, if I'm on 5.00m33-6
Why cant you just go right to Gen D2?

Also.... Do you need to format the mem.stick before upgrading the FW over and over?

Edit* Sorry...

What I wanted to say was,

IF you must upgrade from 5.00m33-6 TO

Gen A,B,B2,D,D2
(Can you skip B2 and just do A,B,D,D2 ?)

As I remember I actually skipped A completely. When I got my PSP it was on 5.00 M33 and I went straight to 5.50 GEN-B.

Xbox 360: Slim untouched with a faked 320 GB harddrive for XBL, phat with LT 3.0, played Halo early, so going on live would be an instand ban, also with a faked 320 GB harddrive
PS3: Untouched 160 GB Slim, 60 GB Fat with latest Rogero and 160 GB internal harddrive.
PSVita: hardly ever play it
GameCube: Black with a Viper chip installed. With gameboy player. Trying to get a Wavebird controller.

im just guiding you as the way i did it, you could skip parts i suppose, but if your psp needed a file from a previous CFW it would not be there, i did it as on the screen, some did not and have problems, probably some did and have no problems. I am just trying to stay simple as far as the guide goes.

Some have successfully upgraded directly like that, but many have bricked. Personally, I would just take the safe route with the incremental updates.

Using D2 myself, and I still run my games from the ISO folder.

Also you can't update directly to GEN-D2, because GEN-D2 is just an update to GEN-D, so you have to have atleast GEN-D first.

5.00m33-6 was the last, gen-d2 lets you play the newest games no need to patch everything else is the same

Hi there! This goes along for all psp right? My psp is the one that is using chickhen r2 and load with custom firmware enabler that makes it 5.00 m33. When i'm trying to play Assassin Creed Bloodlines, it says error game can't be played. Is it ok if i upgrade my psp like what you did?

Thanks, information will be appreciated.
Have a nice day.

Try the latest CFW enabler that allows you to run 5.03 GEN-B for HEN , this will self patch the games.

I was also wondering how far GEN is going to go? Are they still gonna make cfw updates for a few more years, or are they also close to shutting down? sorry, it's my first time with Gen, because I always used m33.

from 5.00m33-4 you can download -6 or if your psp is online you can do an online psp update to 5.00m33-6 like i did

Hi Mickoz74. I have been trying to download assassins creed 2 on a psp phat 0.81 with 5.50 Gen D2. I am unsure if I copied over the top of one of the files and therefore deleteing one of the files required to run the game. Please can you tell me exactly what files should be there for example Games music etc and what should be in those files PSP etc. Please reply as I am a newbie and it is driving me mad!!!!!
Thanks
