hey if i were to upgrade to 3.40 (this is for a friends and he's sure he wants to run it i myself am proudly running 3.03 oe-c) would i have to downgrade to 1.5 again or upgrade straight from my current firmware (he's currently running 3.10 so he's pretty much screwed anyway)

GO PSP AND XBOX FANS U ROCK!

No. Aslong as its 3.03 OE or 3.02 OE or 3.10 OE or 3.30 OE or version 1.50 it will update. Going back to 1.50 is just for if you semi-brick your PSP.

Thats the changelog.. it will say stuff like "Moved from 3.30 firmware to 3.40 firmware"

Aslong as your running 1.50 firmware or 3.02-OE/3.03 OE/3.10-OE/3.30 OE it will install.

My R button doesnt work so does it matter e.g. on recovery mode?

Hi guys,
I've upgraded my psp to 3.03 OE-C in the past, and when I try to to use the winstaller for 3.40 OE-C I get the "Game Cannot be Started" message.
I'm pretty sure it's a simple problem, but can anyone please help?

Why do you need to go in recovery mode for? All you have to do is go in USB mode and let the installer run. Then run it in your PSP under the Game menu.

Also i would like to point something out, incase people think these Winstallers are potentially unsafe because they contain the wrong DATA.DXAR or something, Dark Alex has made it so it scans for the correct DATA.DXAR incase of accidental brick, as of 3.30 OE'. So this make Winstallers completly safe.

Hi everyone.
I know Im a little behind the schedule about the latest 3.40 OE-A release but I just upgraded from my recent 1.50 with the "noob" installer and it works perfectly! I have to say, I really like the 3.40 OE-A since the ISO games (from the ISO folder on the memory stick just like the 1.50 devhook style) appears as an icon under your memory stick tab (below the UMD tab... just to explain for those who have never used a psp. A BIG THANKS TO DAX and TEAM REGION for putting together a quick, safe, and obviously EASY easy-installer!!

What I did to successfully upgrade my version 1.50 to 3.40 OE-A..
- Downloaded DAX & TEAM REGION easy installer from this forum
- Made sure I had my power cord plugged into my psp with power
- Ran the Easy Installer (NOT HAVING THE PSP IN USB MODE YET) and it said with flashing letters, "please connect your PSP"
- Then selected USB MODE on my PSP and the Easy Installer then changed to "START"
- That then saved all necessary files to my PSP under the Memory Stick Tab in order to flash and upgrade to 3.40 OE-A
- Went to Memory Stick Tab on PSP and Ran the 3.40 easy installer
- Gave me an option to either press "X" if OK TO FLASH or "R" if you do not approve and want to exit
- Pressed "X" and it started reading my 1.50 firmware and said ok and then it said WRITE 1.50 and that completed
- Next it read the 3.40 OE-A firmware from the Easy Installer and then said complete and started the WRITE PROCESS and then COMPLETE!
- The PSP told me to press "X" to restart the PSP and to manually power the PSP ON.
- I did, and when installing devhook 0.51 previously, I got a screen with about 15 different languages.. (Not too scared but was a little iffy)
- Waited a good 20 seconds and powered the PSP down and Powered it back on.
- It then went to the registration welcome screen as if I just purchased it. I set the settings and BINGO!
SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED 3.40 OE-A over top of my exhisting 1.50 that I had a hard time parting with!

This post is for everyone who is cautious about upgrading from 1.50 to 3.40 OE-A.. Trust me! IT ROCKS!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH :)

I have yet to try other emulators and such (PSX, NES, ect) but I really do like the GUI on the updated 3.40 OE-A. It makes running ISOS alot easier as well as the Internet on my recent devhook 0.51 didnt work at all (maybe it wasnt supported :).... and now it does!
I like to keep things rather simple and enjoyable (my wife doesnt like things too complicated so it will work for her as well on plane trips)
As for using the "R" button, I have yet to use it and as for the install, it is not needed (unless you dont agree and want to escape the upgrade when using the Winstaller on your PSP which, why would you download it and look into it if you werent going to update? :)
To better help you, you might want to refer to someone else as to what the positives are about having 3.40 OE-A over the 1.50 and do a little reading in your spare time. As for me, it did exactly what I wanted it to (play ISOS easily rather than using Devhook bootup and the like)

Cheers and I hope you find this post somewhat informative :)

Why.. 3.40 OE-A is 1.50 firmware and 3.40 firmware.

because the main reason am worried about my R button not working is because i seen alot of people complaining about an error coming up and what there told is to goto recovery mode or something and click no umd or somthing and to get to recovery mode i think u need R button, but am not sure
