Hi Guys,

I havent touched a PSP for over a year! and today a mate at work has asked me if I can upgrade his PSP for him as he's going to give it his son. The thing is I have lost touch with the PSP firmware scene and I am lost at what the best way to upgrade it to one of the latest ones is.

Its a PSP1000 and is currently on 3.52 M33-4 (Very old I know!)

Anyone advice on the upgrade path would be great please.

Regards

Hi Guys,

Im all sorted... did a little bit more reading up and worked out the few stages I needed to do to get to latest 5.50 Prometheus V4 and its working like a dream :)

Can you share the stages please as I also have one on M33 at home that I wanted to sort out but havent had the chance too - maybe over christmas
 
No problems JTH - busy time of year for everyone :)

For anyone that wants to know how I did it these are the steps I did:

CUrrent FW - 3.52 M33-4
1) Upgrade to 3.71 M33
2) Upgrade to 4.01 M33
3) Upgrade to 5.50 GEN D3
4) Upgrade to 5.50 Prom 4

Fifa 11 and a few new games tested and working fine :)

Cheers mate now just to use the search button over the holidays :)
 
I will see if I can pack up the software in to a rar mate and upload somewhere for you. Will post the link once I have done it if I am allowed? (JTH can you confirm this is ok?)
