Okay, so i'm running CFW 3.52 M33-2, and i'm trying to update to 4.01. BUT for some reason it won't update. It suddenly get's stuck.
It says... "Unpacking... done.
Please wait... "
and then i wait... and it remains there! forever! I formatted my memory stick, for some strange reason? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to have also an eboot of offical sony 4.01 firmware, i think that in the readme is clear writen, that you need also that...
You have to rename it to 401.PBP and put it into same folder - UPDATE...
If this doesn´t work try to update to 3.52m33-4 and then upgrade it...If this doesn´´t work try to redownload the file from dark alex site...If that aslo don´t work upgrade it into 3.90m33...
