PSP Firmware ver 3.80


Recommended Posts

From PSP Fanboy

PSP firmware 3.80 is now available via Network Update. Here's the scoop on what's new:

* [internet Radio] has been added as a feature under [Network].

* The importing of channels in OPML format is now supported under [RSS Channel].

* Photos can now be displayed under [RSS Channel].

* New effects have been added to the visual player under [Music]. Only one new visualizer has been added. It acts like a slow Etch-a-Sketch.

I updated via network update this morning and is working well... internet radio is cool...

What do you guys think?

It refuses to install on my PSP..keeps saying the battery is too low (which it is, but it's currently charging) kinda dogey that even running on external power it still won't install...oh well try again after the battery is charged.

I think you need a fully charged battery to update.

I know you need a fully charged battery to update (helps prevent bricking your PSP) but the thing I don't get is even running off external power, it won't update..I've had it low on batteries before running off mains...I don't get why it won't this time?

You can do that in 3.71 and up. At least the M33 version. Just hit the home button to back out of the music player (it will keep playing), and then view your pics with the music playing.

DAX as in..Dark Alex? I thought he left the scene. If hes back....I need to go buy a new PSP asap? ;)

He's still releasing stuff, just not at the rate he used to. He recently released M33 3.71 update 4 and a little plugin to fake your MAC address. I'd wait to buy that PSP just to make sure he's going to release M33 3.80, but must most people in the scene and that know him seem to think he will.

Edit: Oh, and if you've been out of it for a while, you should know that there is something called Pandora's Battery that can downgrade any PSP.

He came back as M33. Not sure if I'm right but as far as I know M33 is Dark_Alex and a few other guys.

He recently released an update for 3.71 M33 (updating it to 3.71 M33 update 4), he never did 3.72 or 3.73 because he said they were too small to matter, a few other people tried his way of making custom firmware to make custom 3.72 and 3.73s but they don't seem to be very popular.

Now that there is 3.80 maybe he'll see it big enough to do.

Thanks guys for the update. Are the new PSP's modable? Or should I stick with the old ones for this purpose?

They are, but you would need another one already modded to make the aforementioned Pandora's Battery, unless there is another way I'm not aware of. Haven't kept up on downgrading slims because I'm perfectly happy with my phat.

Technically, using the newest pandora ("Despertar del cementerio V3") there's no need to downgrade, now it flashes any PSP (bricks included) straight to 3.71M33-2.

What is this M33?

Is it a homebrew? If so, is it easy since i have a psp running official firmware 3.74 i think it is (upgraded it last saturday evening). But it'd be nice to have it modded so I can do my own stuff on it!
