Q: So, what are custom firmwares?
A: Custom firmwares are unofficial firmwares developed by
programmers. To date, custom firmwares are a combination of multiple
official firmwares.
Custom firmware = 75% of official firmware #1 + 20% of official
firmware #2 + 5% of hackers firmware
But underestimate them not, they offer a powerful base to the PSP.
Q: What do you mean by powerful base?
A: Currently, custom firmwares combine the best homebrew-able firmware
(V1.50) with the best of the latest, decrypt-able one (V3.40).
V1.50 + V3.40 + V3.80 = V3.80 M33 (created by Dark-AleX)
So basically, you get the best of both worlds.
Q: So, which is better: V1.50, V3.80 or V3.80 M33?
V1.50:
Pro(s): Homebrew-able by default.
Con(s): Lacks features, such as the built-in browser and camera
function on the XMB.
V3.80
Pro(s) of V3.80: Features are up-to-date.
Con(s) of V3.80: Not homebrew-able.
V3.80 M33
Pro(s) of V3.80 M33: Homebrew-able by default (pro of V1.50) and
up-to-date features (pro of V3.80) plus recovery function (original pro
of custom firmwares)..
Con(s) of V3.80 M33: Gets you addicted.
So, its clear that a custom firmware is a better firmware compared to
official firmwares.
Q: V3.80 M33 and V3.80 M33-5? Whats the difference?
A: The -2 means second revision, which also means that certain features
are improved/bugs tweaked.
Q: I have a V3.80 M33 now and I wish to update to V3.80 M33-5. Do I
need to update the older ones (M33-2, M33-3, and M33-4) first?
A: No. Just go straight to M33-5 will work fine because the newer
updates (M33-5) have the older updates (M33-2, M33-3, and M33-4) in it.
Q:What should i use custom firmware for?
A: Many use it to play ISO (Backed up) Games but we strongly discourage
as this will cause harm to the industry, we have custom firmware on our
psp and we play with themes and homebrew legal, Playurconsoles.com
always believe in -Have UMD doesnt means have to rip- policy.
