About the firmware:
This is the latest firmware by Dark_Alex release about 4 days ago.As compared to 3.71 M33, this new firmware fixes some of the problems that was present when using 3.71, like not able to play some of the homebrewed games. However in order to use this update, your PSP version must be 3.53 M33-3(fat/slim) or above to use this update.


If not, you need to upgrade your PSP firmware of at least 3.53 M33-3 first. Just follow the steps closely and at your own risk.

Update includes:

• HEN core: user mode can load now signchecked files from flash.


• recovery: flash1 format will create flash1 directories after format.


• This could fix some flash1 issues with the previous versions.


• Network update from dark-alex.org page. By default is enabled. You can turn it off in recovery (when off, network update will download sony updates as usual).
  
• Nids resolver for various kernel libraries.
