Custom Firmware 5.03 GEN-B Release delayed.
Update – Its out: http://pspslimhacks.com/custom-firmware-5-03-gen-b-for-hen-released/
PSPGen have just recently posted that the release of Custom Firmware 5.03 GEN-B for ChickHEN has been delayed. The reason behind this was they found a recovery bug that prevented certain games from playing. One of which was the Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker demo. Instead of releasing it today and later needing to release 5.03 GEN-B2. Team GEN have decided it would be best to wait, fix it and have it ready for release tomorrow.
This is not a problem with the CFW but a recovery bug. If you remember, the recovery of 5.03GEN-A already had a problem: all option lines were shuffled. The correction of this problem comes with another bug in some options like the “use version.txt” which doesn’t work anymore and prevents the launch of the MGS.
5.03 GEN-B is now set for release tomorrow night (French time that is) We’ll keep you posted and have it up for download the moment its released.

psp gen site is up
November 1, 2009 at 6:47 pm
Hmm its now 1:43am GMT+1 (Time in France) Doesn’t look like its coming out “tonight” Take a break and do something else. Check back with us later for any changes. But the odds are they are sleeping so it will be out tomorrow or expect an update at the very least. No point spamming the comments about it not being out yet.
November 1, 2009 at 6:49 pm
Ok so their not sleeping…They should be, so should I

November 1, 2009 at 6:57 pm
i read this on pspgen.com
It is one very beautiful week that is ended this Sunday, the 1st of November. First, one of the most important information is certainly the position(attitude) in Custom Firmware’s line 5.03 types of GEN-B, which has for principal functionality of being able to throw(launch) the games that need a firmware over 5.55. Nevertheless, the position(attitude) in line, which had to be celebrated on October 31 has been rejected because there was a problem of compatibility that blocks certain options between(among) which there is the one that allows to use the file version.txt necessarily for the launch(throwing) of MGS’s demo, for example. But nothing burdens, Custom Firmware was OK releasé yesterday in the night.
WHER IS IT!!!!! D :

hmmm its tmrw and i still dont see 5.03 gen b. not complaining but is the delay just to play that one demo really worth it. come on its a demo not even the full game, i say release it and come out with the fix later for those who complain about wanting to play the games
November 1, 2009 at 7:10 pm
Guys keep it on topic please. I don’t want to have to ban people for useless comments / spaming.

there has been some editing done in the last half hour. some of these comments….alot of them mine are going to be taken out of context. They will also seem to come out of left feild
November 1, 2009 at 7:28 pm
the real hero will be the person who can figure out how to perma hack the ta85v3 mother boards. wont matter what psp or ofw you have then. So I say to my hero dont listen to the can’t do people. where there is a will and the right smarts there is a way.
November 1, 2009 at 7:31 pm
Seems a lot of comments were deleted. I’m also noticing an odd bug with out of order timestamps.
Sorry for off-topicness, I honestly don’t really care about this update.
November 1, 2009 at 7:32 pm
I do care about it, but have noticed the same thing. an omen for the upcoming release???
November 1, 2009 at 7:36 pm
Eat right, exercise, die anyway.
November 1, 2009 at 7:38 pm
You have to wonder why they didn’t bring it out when they said they would – without comment.
November 1, 2009 at 8:06 pm
This may be over stepping a bound after all these guy’s have done for us. I’m an American see and well we are used to the french braking promises with out a second thought. there i said it.

lets call our selves “The League Of Super Friends” mission “to seek out hacks no matter what time of day it may be we stand strong for the gen”

This was one their site:
It is a very good week ending this Sunday, November 1. Firstly, one of the most important information is clearly Listed Custom Firmware 5.03 GEN-B, which has the main functionality to launch the games require a firmware above 5.55. However, the online, to be held October 31 was postponed because there was a compatibility problem that blocks certain options that allows to use the version.txt file needed to launch the demo of MGS, eg. But nothing serious, the custom firmware has been release last night.
Hmmm…

November 1, 2009 at 5:42 pm
True… and huge part of the people dont hack psp cuse of the games but maybe for homebrews or Apps
November 1, 2009 at 5:44 pm
Now that’s a bit too far. All the UMDs on my PSP are dumped from my own hardcopy. Same with PSX eboots. It’s just easier to have my games in digital format (in fact, I would’ve gotten the PSP Go if it weren’t for the fact that most games aren’t up on PSN yet).
Don’t judge everyone based on a minority (or majority depending on how you see it).
November 1, 2009 at 5:48 pm
lol its seems u couldnt get what i meant
November 1, 2009 at 5:49 pm
I didn’t direct that at you.
And you shouldn’t be talking. <_<

Trying to hide the guilt of piracy by flaming others I see…
November 1, 2009 at 6:08 pm
It’s an analogy.
I’m not really going to lie about not having pirated games on my PSP since I do have a few ROMs that I don’t own, but are you saying people have pirated ISOs or ROMs? I and most others would never put an ISO or CSO on our memory stick that we don’t own. It really kills the gaming industry.
Eh, this sure is really off-topic.

was something said about prostitutes? Are there some on the way?
