Gaming PSP Online problems

[sa1amandra]

So i havn't touched my PSP in a while and decided to do so today. I try to go online with Resistance, and it says i need to update. I'm on 5.00 m33-6. Is there an update i missed?

I believe Resistance requires 5.50 to play it, sucks because I have the same problem and I'm at 5.03. I'm not going to update as I have a PSP 3000.

 

[Tikker]

nope

I'm on 5.00m33 and it works fine for me


EDIT: missed the online part. not sure about that, sorry about the misread

EDIT: tried playing again, yesterday, and it didnt work =D and then, i was putting a theme, and i bricked it

If you still need to update use the FIRMWARE UPDATE spoof trick its a txt file that you load that fools the PSP/PSN that your already on 5.50

heres the how to ..

How to spoof your CFW PSP 5.00 M-xx version to a PSP 5.50:

Requirements:

* PSP w/CFW 5.00 M33-2 (dark alex 5.00 M33-2 variant tested/working)
* PC and usb cable

1. Boot your PSP and hold the R trigger. This boots you to your CFW recovery menu. It will look like this:

———————————-

M33 Recovery Menu
Main menu

Toggle USB
Configuration ->

Run program at /PSP/GAME/RECOVERY/EBOOT.PBP
Advanced ->
CPU Speed ->

Plugins ->

Registry hacks ->

Exit

———————————-

2. Go to Configuration

3. Then go to XMB USB Device (currently: Memory Stick) and hit X until it shows: Flash 0

4. Then go down to Use version.txt (currently: Disabled) and hit X to Enable it.

5. Then go to Back and then Exit. Your psp will reboot.

6. Connect you PSP to your PC.

7. Go to your PSP’s memory stick in My Computer (it should show as Memory Stick)

8. Once in your memory stick, go to the VSH folder, then to the etc folder.

9. In here will be a version.txt. copy this to your computer for safe keeping put it in a folder so you do not get it mixed up with the one your going to replace it with!

heres the replacement version.txt file link

download this file and replace the one that's in step 9 above!

a) If you're referring to the requirements then that first line should read "..and above"
b) You're not looking at your MS contents, you need to look in flash0

ok maybe this is not a frimware problem or such

here's the message i keep getting

A system software update for the PSP
system is required.
For update methods, refer to the
instructions for the PSP system

 

[SifJar]

Online play requires 5.51 I believe, and the version.xt posted above is 5.50 I think? Get the 5.51 version.txt and you should be sweet.

or edit it to read 5.51

if theres a step missing please tell me where it should be and I will add it .. the guide was a cut and paste!

 

[akash86]

yea, it still doesnt work

 

[sa1amandra]

yea, it still doesnt work

basically any game which requires a PSN account will not work

 

[kobykaan]

meh noticed this too now ...


they another way of checking past the version.txt file now anything below 5.51 is blacklisted from PSN

c'mon DARK ALEX this time this has to be something worth fixing! (I know hes probably not reading this but we can all hope!)
