Dark_AleX releases 3.40 OE-A and 3.30 OE-A2

Times are tough all over

I will not ask the dumbest most asked question on this thread, but I will ask a dumb question. That being said, I have a TA-082, 3.4 Sony Firmware. Just caught on to all this Homebrew stuff, and was wondering if anyone knows if 3.4 is hackable, or if I should try and find another PSP that I can downgrade?

Thanks in advance.

nope, 3.40 cannot run homebrew. Best bet would be to get a PSP with 2.71 firmware so you can downgrade it straight to 1.5.
 
Im Have a HUGE Issue with the RECOVERY menu

I started off with an 2.71 TA-082 PSP, then DG to 1.50, then upgrade it to 3.40 and set the RECOVERY configurations, then after, i go back to the Config Menu but, it gives me a blank sky Blue screen. And from there it locks up, and i have to reboot it, I don't know what the problem is but my Configuration Recovery Options isn't coming up, can someone help???????:confused1:

Have a look at this thread here.
Someone else had a similar problem.
 
OH! thank you, Jaynb, you saved a new PSP!!!

In Taiwan, we have a really risky way to downgrade PSP, and this way is much more experuence cause we have to OPEN PSP........and ruin the assurance label.......this means I can't play iso games with software adjustment.......
 
Well my brother finally broke down and bought a PSP. I have had mine since I bought it as a FW1.5. I haven't had to worry about the type of motherboard I have while downgrading but now I do. He wants to use homebrew and I have identified his as a brand new 2.6 (I on the box) and a newer motherboard (IC1003). I believe it's a TA-082. Now the question I need clarification on is can I downgrade him right from 2.6 to 1.5 or do I need to upgrade him to 2.71 then to 1.5 using the 2.71 for TA-082/086 downgrader pack? Thanks.

Sounds interesting, did you check if your MS is a fake?
 
...if it sounds like a duck...

So all of the CSOs or EBOOTs work fine on your 1GB but not on your 4GB?
Well the first thing I would do is format your 4GB then test it again.
If it still doesn't work on the 4GB then in your PSP XMB menu move over to Video and press TRIANGLE and go into Information... If it says MagicGate Unknown you've probably got a bad/fake memory stick.
 
non

does custom firmware have sony firmwares update?
 
Thanks for the quick reply. I see by your firmware history line that this is what you did. Thanks again.

No problem. And happy downgrading.

Is that 3.40 firmware from Sony or Dark-Alex?
The special features we talk about here require Open Edition firmware.
To get OE firmware on your PSP you must first downgrade to Sony version 1.50.
Currently if you have Sony firmware 3.10 or higher THERE IS NO DOWNGRADER.
Your only options are:
1. Return your PSP for another which hopefully has Sony firmware 3.03 or LOWER.
2. Buy and install a modchip.
3. Stay and wait at 3.40 and DO NOT upgrade further, sooner or later someone may find a way to downgrade 3.10 and higher down to 1.50.
Right now that's all there is to it... when there IS a downgrader EVERYONE will know.
You can read the PSP 3.10+ Firmware Problems thread if you have any further questions.
