Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-A coming and Soon.
GENyUS and the guys behind 5.03 GEN-A firmware for the PSP-3000 are working on Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-A. Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-A which will be out soon will give users the features of 5.50 but with the homebrew options of GEN Custom Firmware. Reading the translations from French its clear the PSP-1000 and PSP-2000 are only supported at this stage. And we can expect to see a release before midnight Friday 12th (French time) And for the PSP-1000 (PSP Fat) 1.50 kernel add-on Custom Firmware for 5.50GEN.
PSPGen have also noted that they are working on 5.03 GEN-A v2 too, but 5.50 GEN-A will be released first. We’ll keep you posted.
Translated from French:
The good news concerns the owners of PSP-1000 and PSP-2000 V1 and V2.
We will upload a Custom Firmware 5.50GEN and all that goes with it. Read
following to learn more about the subject.
We have therefore decided to make you enjoy our baby last time, the Custom firmware 5.50GEN-A which will be installed on all PSP agreeing to be flashées (PSP-1000, PSP-2000 V1 and V2).
This will enable owners of these consoles can take advantage of the latest official firmware from Sony, while retaining the benefits of the world underground. It is not beautiful life on PSPGEN?
For those who would not mind all the new official 5.50 firmware from Sony, here’s a reminder:
* The [Information Board] has been added under [PlayStation Network]
Those of you who have a PS3 should be familiar with this feature, which displays news and updates from SCEE in the upper right corner of the screen. You can now obtain information about the games ahead of the new content available on the Playstation Store, and other news from your PSP even if you are connected to WiFi. Note that on PS3, this feature is disabled by most users as it is accused of slowing down the connection and the console.* Support for Internet security service provided by Trend Micro has been added to [Internet Browser]
o end Micro Web Security: use technology to block access to malicious sites that can steal personal information and confidential
o Trend Micro Kid’s Safety: You can block access to websites with inappropriate content.* An icon [Internet Search] has been added to the menu bar of your browser
Was it really necessary?* In the menu option of a game, you can now perform an Internet search using the name of the game as a keyword.
By selecting the icon of the game and then pressing triangle and selecting [Internet Search] in the options menu allows you to get search results based on the name of the game This feature also comes from the PS3 or she appeared with the recent 2.70 update* You can now see an additional level of hierarchy under [Photo] [Music] and [Video]
It is now possible to create and access sub-folders in the folders Music, video and photo. More seriously missing.We believe it is unnecessary to recall the advantages of the underground world because you know what is possible with a Custom Firmware, right?
Note that the online release of Custom Firmware 5.03GEN-A should be accompanied by the updating of various essential as the
Kernel Add-on Custom Firmware 1.50 for 5.50GEN
Unofficial and CXMB for 5.50GEN[image]
Note that to achieve this result, it took our team of devs, more commonly known as GENyUS comes to decrypt the 5.50 official firmware (thank you y. ..) and then successfully changed the 5.02GEN-A to transform it into 5.50GEN-A. A job that took me some time but the result is up to the expectations: our latest Custom Firmware is currently the most powerful of all and you can test it by Friday 12 June 2009 in the evening. As you can see, we try to do our best to make the scene alive and that you can have a good weekend in the company of PSPGEN while others try to make a clone … but that is another story.
Note that we also work on a V2 and V3 of 5.03HEN-A which should offer some new significant and appreciated. However, wanting to please everyone, we put these online versions after 5.50GEN-A.

Umm… Problem, how will you boot ChickHEN on 5.50 anyway? Unless you’ve fixed that too?
June 11, 2009 at 5:28 pm
I understand your confusion due to bad translation LOL! It’s only for flashable PSPs (PSP 1k and 2k v1 or v2) and this is a permanent CFW..
June 11, 2009 at 9:02 am
correction…>im second not first T_T

Any chance of PSP 3000 support?
June 11, 2009 at 1:50 pm
dude wtf is wrong with people like u, they making this as they already DO support psp 3000 its 5.50 gen-a i bet u still need 5.03 ..and even if u shuld be happy if it ever supports it.
June 11, 2009 at 5:13 pm
Your making yourself look stupid.. 5.03 GEN-A does support PSP 3k via HEN but NOT 5.50 GEN-A.. If you read carefully, it’s only for PSPs that are flashable (PSP 1k and 2k v1 or v2)..
June 11, 2009 at 5:10 pm
I guess it’s impossible for PSP 3k for now..
June 11, 2009 at 9:17 am
hmmm…5th.. :3
June 11, 2009 at 9:28 am
yeaah i have psp 2010 with firmware 5.50 thats cool , tomorrow yeah i cant wait..
June 11, 2009 at 9:28 am
Whats better M33 or the GEN cfw? nd what is the diffrences?? I’m on M33-6 so whats GEN-A all about and is it any good?
June 11, 2009 at 10:06 am
I guess this one can run on 5.50 firmware while m33 can’t..
June 11, 2009 at 3:12 pm
m33 COULD but DAX just doesn’t feel its a good enough update to make CFW for it
June 11, 2009 at 5:15 pm
@mango:
Yeah I know they COULD but they DIDN’T DO IT even though many are waiting for it..
June 11, 2009 at 9:39 am
thats great i dont have to worry about downgrading or buying pandora batteries … and this shit betta not brick my 3000 = |
June 11, 2009 at 10:05 am
It’s not for PSP 3000
June 11, 2009 at 10:03 am
LOL. This is great news.
June 11, 2009 at 10:24 am
Those features aren’t really that useful. DVD Region-free is a win.
June 11, 2009 at 10:27 am
This is great! Thanks!
June 11, 2009 at 10:37 am
oohhh thirteenth look at me
June 11, 2009 at 10:37 am
okay twelfth? wth
June 11, 2009 at 10:41 am
its given as psp 2000 v1 and v2…….. both are hackable and downgradable… so whats the big deal… and the 5.5 OFW features aren’t mindblasting…..
i was hoping for a v3 fix of 5.03 GEN-A
June 11, 2009 at 5:19 pm
It’s a big deal actually, It gives hope for those who accidentally f*cked their PSP to 5.50 OFW..
June 11, 2009 at 10:42 am
not that this isn’t great…… decrypting the 5.5 firmware must’ve been a hell of a job……
keep it up genYus… u keep surprising us……..
June 11, 2009 at 10:47 am
but if this doesn’t require pandora battery os MMS….that would be great…..except for unbricking
June 11, 2009 at 11:03 am
Does it work on PSP with TA-088v3?
June 11, 2009 at 11:25 am
currently only for PSP-1000 and PSP-2000 V1 and V2
June 11, 2009 at 11:43 am
cool~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i have waiting for that so long time~!
June 11, 2009 at 11:49 am
Man i want a Full Custom Firmware…if you switch off your system it all goes back!
And huw can u load ChickHEN on 5.50?
June 11, 2009 at 5:20 pm
It’s not for HEN and it’s only for flashable PSPs..
June 11, 2009 at 12:12 pm
So is this a hack for those with 5.50 OFW or is this CFW with the same features as the OFW 5.50?
I’ve got a TA-088v3 motherboard and my firmware is OFW 5.50 so is this some light at the end of the tunnel for me or am I reading this wrong?
June 11, 2009 at 12:52 pm
that screenshot could be fake ( just saying) I can make my psp say that with spoofer v3 a nifty little program made by Davee the person who brought us chickhen. here it is http://pspupdates.qj.net/PSP-homebrew-Unlimited-Character-Version-and-Mac-Address-Spoofer-v3/pg/49/aid/132084
what ever happened to the updates on homebrews on this site? this site got me into the psp scene again but ever since the cfwe and gen-a came out the writer of this site has not been doing updates on homebrews :p anyway I know 5.50 firmware hack will be real b/c gen-a was made from the ground up.
June 11, 2009 at 1:23 pm
it could be, but then history would tell us they don’t lie to much. Look at 5.03 GEN-A would they make thisup? I think not.
June 11, 2009 at 5:21 pm
After GEN-A for PSP 3k, you call this a fake?
June 11, 2009 at 1:16 pm
this is for hackable PSP not for unhackable
June 11, 2009 at 2:12 pm
hehe i am just lucky that my psp3k is not on 5.50 hehe goodluck guys
June 11, 2009 at 2:33 pm
Sounds sexy but how it gonna work without ChickHEN?Is it permanent!?
and will it work on 88v3?
June 11, 2009 at 3:17 pm
no no no…
When it comes out for v3/3000 it will need chickhen on 5.03. it will be like the gen it has now.
Don’t you know why we can’t put permanent FW on those consoles? its because the pre-Ipl checks… look it up
June 11, 2009 at 2:44 pm
I hope they are working next for the PSP 3000, for those who has OFW 5.50
June 11, 2009 at 5:23 pm
If someone actually made a HEN for 5.50 OFW then expect a CFW right next to it..
June 11, 2009 at 2:47 pm
plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz help me…… i have psp 3004 with 5.50….. how can i hack plz help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

June 11, 2009 at 3:13 pm

June 11, 2009 at 3:14 pm
…. HOW is this good news to the people who upgraded to 5.50, exactly?
June 11, 2009 at 5:25 pm
If you accidentally upgraded to 5.50 then it IS a good news..
June 11, 2009 at 4:16 pm
im hoping that it will have support for psp-3000 5.50 OFW…. its worth the wait..
June 11, 2009 at 4:30 pm
That was quick
This firmware hasnt been out long and its got CFW comin out soon already
June 11, 2009 at 5:36 pm
Hi all. Will be there Ultimate VSH menu in 5.50GEN? If, yes witchone?
June 11, 2009 at 5:59 pm
Will I be able to boot a M33 CFW update if I make my PSP have CFW 5.50 GEN-A?
June 11, 2009 at 6:23 pm
Question.. is it smart to move from 5.00 M33-6 to 5.50 GEN-A? I guess not. I have a ta088-v2.
I think of this becuase I think Dark_AleX doesn’t do anymore stuff lately..
BTW, how have they managed to do this? With an exploit for 5.50 or do you just have to install it from 5.03..?
June 11, 2009 at 6:25 pm
I have a simple question, someone known if I buy the Rock Band Unplugged bundle PSP this is hackable or this is better I buy any PSP before this one are they all hackable?
June 11, 2009 at 6:45 pm
All I can think is that they are creating their own homebrew in other words their own ChickHEN to run this 5.50 GEN A… At least of what I know ChickHEN does not support 5.50 only 5.03…
June 11, 2009 at 8:29 pm
It clearly says that it’s only for flashable PSPs meaning, PSP 3k and PSP 2k with 88v3 are not supported.. It is for 5.50 OFW and it is a permanent CFW ..
June 11, 2009 at 6:45 pm
I would appreciate it very much if you clarify this doubt of mine.
Since 5.50GEN a is not releasing on PSP 3000 and TA 88 V3, will it be a full firmware on all other PSP’s?
Like will it dissapear after shutdown?
Thanks!
June 11, 2009 at 8:02 pm
no it wont
June 11, 2009 at 8:30 pm
Yes it is a permanent CFW..
June 11, 2009 at 6:59 pm
does this custom firmware read iso/cso?
June 11, 2009 at 8:10 pm
Oh basically its 5.50 cfw for psp 1k or 2k v1,v2. Oh cool.
Q. You can downgrade a phat or a slim even if it is on ofw 5.50 with pandora’s battery right?
June 11, 2009 at 8:31 pm
Yes for phat but “some” for slims..
June 11, 2009 at 8:12 pm
Yey! See, after 5.03… it’s 5.50’s turn!
But I hope that the one for the 3000 model would come out also today or tomorrow with the ones for the lower model PSPs.
June 12, 2009 at 4:04 am
they already have one for psp 3000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
June 12, 2009 at 4:28 am
He’s referring to psp 3k with 5.50 OFW..
June 11, 2009 at 8:30 pm

June 11, 2009 at 8:48 pm
lucky 5.50 users
5.03 waited like 8 months lol
but how will it work without chicken
5.50 only has a latiff exploit
so how is it gonna do it
well ill see what happens tommorow
but im not gonna update my firmware even if it works
June 11, 2009 at 8:56 pm
hummmm! how about if i turn off my psp ? is this update will fix that ? i mean this update work after i flash my psp and it will be hacked with cfw even if i turn it off?
June 11, 2009 at 9:07 pm
The news editor that made this post is stupid. This is not close to good news for those who upgraded to 5.50, because it only works on “hackable” PSPs (as they state: PSP1000 and PSP2000 v1 and v2 — not v3) which can be hacked with Pandora even if they’re on 5.50. This is not an exploit in the 5.50 FW. Those who have a v3 and/or PSP3000 and have updated to 5.50 still have no chance of getting homebrew for a long time. Stop posting crap on the website.
June 11, 2009 at 9:35 pm
i was just thinking the same thing felix. if davee or somebody doesnot put out some kind of hen then this is pointless for the 5.50 users.
June 12, 2009 at 1:01 pm
Exactly. And the editor that put up these news is stupid.
June 11, 2009 at 9:16 pm
hurley asked a good question. Does it reads iso/cso?
