So the Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-D is completed and passes in beta test. If you can not wait, here's a video of our baby in action, with a reminder of its characteristics
The Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-D will come and will Ensure what should have been done by his predecessor. Indeed, the 5.50 GEN-C lived 72 hours, and if for some persons it works, for the other it caused a lot of problems with his various crashes.
What up doc, in this news release?
All features of 5.50GEN-B2 are available.
Compatibility with games Requiring firmware 5.51 with no additional handling (now, you do not need Decrypter Game)
Compatibility with most of games normally protected and Refusing to be ran on a Custom Firmware (Full Metal Alchemist, Soul Calibur, etc.). Yoshihiro has created a system to run them and he succeed to make this system more stable and it's now compatible with all PSP, unlike the 5.50 GEN-C.
Possibility to connect at the Playstation Store via MEDIAGO, to retrieve game and goodies without having to install Fake USB or other complicated stuff.
Known bugs:
- IR Shell can not no longer launch ISOs, but a patch is ready and will be released as soon as possible
- 480x272 video playback in trouble but a fix is being studied
- Option to accelerate the reading of MS is going to be ported to 5.50GEN
- If you get a blackscreen when you start the install, that's because you are in 5.50 GEN-B (1) and not in 5.50 GEN-B2. So update to B2, and install the custom firmware 5.50 GEN-D.
Date and time of the release:
We will release the Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-D tomorrow, 21st October 2009, around 8 pm (French Time). It will be posted only if we are sure that everything works, but we will keep you informed tomorrow, throughout the day. Normally, it should not, for once, be late, Because everything is ready.
btw, does anyone know what he means with the Known Bug - Option to accelerate the reading of MS is going to be ported to 5.50GEN? I already know that MS is memory stick.

I don't know why gen placed that thing there but that means the MS speed up option availablle in 5.00 m33-6 will be ported to gen CFW soon.

It means that they have been trying to port it from the m33 CFW. I guess they were probably planning on releasing this with their new CFW, but since C was so buggy they had to speed up the release of D and hence they could not finish their work on the port. Long story short, we will probably see a patch rather soon.

true thanks for filling in the holes of our thoughts lmao
hmmm. there was another bug on 5.50 GEN-C. I started a game, played it for like 2 mins, and then went to the XMB, brought up the VSH Menu, selected "Reboot" and i held the R-Trigger to enter Recovery Mode. When i enterd the Recovery Menu, it was 5.00 M33-6's Recovery Menu! i was like WTF!!!!
then i exited the recovery menu and tried to do it again, but the other times it just came up as the 5.50 GEN Recovery Menu.
so can i upgrade from 5.00? im always been loyal to m33
You have to be in full GEN-B2 before upgrading to GEN-C or later. That is until Yohishiro comes up with an installer to go directly to D (like he did with B2). You will likely brick your PSP if you go directly from m33 to GEN-C/D.
