  • kenpachiroks

    can some1 explain the quick start mode

    • cffw

      when you have quick start mode enabled, when starting cfw enabler 3.20 it will load into memory and automatically go back to the xmb instead of going into the program hitting start or whatever. you can always go back into cfwe and change settings.

      • tom

        you can always hold the R botton in the quickstart, and itl turn on the program itself.

  • http://xĐ KoMa444

    hmm.. can we use cwcheat on psp 3000 with m33-6??

  • danielz

    i own a psp 3000
    if it is 5.00 m33-6…………
    will this be a permanent cfw?
    or is it just another firmware where the cfw will go away if u fully shut down??

    -thanks…………

    • cffw

      No u stll need to use HEN for this

    • BamBam

      sei doch froh das du überhaupt iso, pops und plugin support kriegst! die pre-ipl wurde noch nicht geknackt also wird dieser CFW Enabler vermutlich das beste sein was wir kriegen können.

  • ewok1986

    so am i right in thinking that if you mess with the flash on the 3000 ur brick your psp

    4!!!!!!!!!!

    • tom

      no not really unless your power goes out in the pops flashing or somewhere else ur writing to flash, nothing is suposed to happen. The program doesnt overwrite the flash, it just puts the files in the flash (next to the already existing ones)

      • ewok1986

        dont spoze you have a link to a good guide for doing this. i have made a e.boot for one of my ps1 games and it loads up to the playstation sign then that dissapers and i have a black screen. dosnt freeze or crash just goes black and then i exit out of the game. any help would great

  • ahmed

    Guys am sorry for being ugly but i dont understand what should i use it for and how can it be useful ?!! can anyone explain to me please ???

  • Cffw

  • Roma650

    Native 5.03 Pops is now supported. -what does this mean? also can we get an uninstall pops feature..i tried instaling it way back and it was a bad flash i think. Someone said it was in F0 folder but even with hidden files enabled i did not find. yea so i rely want to play my good old psx eboots

    • Joedakeys

      Decrypt OFW 5.03 with new-psardumper by pressing [] button. At MS:root find F0\kd and copy pops.prx & popsman.prx to your desktop. Then go to CFWEnabler/config/ and toggle usb to be Flash0. Get out of CFWE and go to usb mode at the xmb. Set your computer to show protected hidden files. then go to my computer & find your device volume drive. Go into F0/KD and copy past the two .prx files on your desktop to that F0/KD folder in your device. Don’t touch anything else. Your games must be Eboots & placed in the game folder. Make sure that the game itself has a folder. Make sure to revert settings done on your computer & your device.

      • Jhazky

        Plugins cannot be detected with this..

    • gcblues73

    help i cant get the freakin plugins to work. im trying to use hold and when i go to plugins it says ERROR! NOT PLUGINS DETECTED (its actually not no mistake). I made a seplugins foler in the root of my memory stick (its in the same directorie as PSP right?) and i added pops.txt, vhs.txt, and game.txt. and i put the hold path into the vhs.txt. still doesnt work

  • http://yahoo Pinoy Ba Hanap?

    can this work for a psp3000 with an OFW of 5.03 or it’s just for a psp with a OFW 5.00?

    • kenpachiroks

      duh! u need HEN to run so its for 5.03 obviously

    • gcblues73

      Oo namen… :D pwedeng pwede sa psp3000 5.03, kailangan mo lang ng Hen.. :3

  • Isaac

    When i run the eboot, is it dangerous if i flash it to my system when i already have GEN-A installed? Or do i just load and boot into cfw?

    • Jhazky

      Just use the uninstall function first then flash and install..

    • Joedakeys

      CFWE gives you an option to uninstall any previous CFW. Do that first to stay in the safe side, man!

  • philip

    when is the CXMB plug-in be released for CFWE on Psp 300X

  • philip

    The Ultimate VSH menu Plug-in does not work with CFWE 3.10

  • JSTHIR2ASK

    Can any one tell a STEP by STEP instruction on how to get this working?
    I have PSP-3004 and i knew already how to run the ChickHen.
    Help me please.. THX

    • Joedakeys

      Dud, put the CFWE folder in your psp/game. Run chickhenR2. go to games & run CFWE then flash the files. After if you want to play psx games, I recoment the following best way to do it:

      Download & Decrypt OFW 5.03 with new-psardumper by pressing [] button. At MS:root find F0\kd and copy pops.prx & popsman.prx to your desktop. Then go to CFWEnabler/config/ and toggle usb to be Flash0. Get out of CFWE and go to usb mode at the xmb. Set your computer to show protected hidden files. then go to my computer & find your device volume drive. Go into F0/KD and copy past the two .prx files on your desktop to that F0/KD folder in your device. Don’t touch anything else. Your games must be Eboots & placed in the game folder. Make sure that the game itself has a folder. Make sure to revert settings done on your computer & your device.

    Xenogears and becus25 are THIEVES!!!

    they stole that program from GENyUS!!

    you should be ashamed of yourselves!!

    mga MAGNANAKAW KAYO!! HAYOP!!

    GENyUS ROCKS!!! \m/

    PSPGEN RULES!!!

    • Gabe Logan

      Who cares about GEN they didn’t do a good job for all systems.. I couldn’t even run it on my psp 2000.. They are better than 5.03 GEN

      • Jhazky

        CFE was made because of GEN..

  • Togusa

    @philip, @JSTHIR2ASK

    yeah step by steb instructions of how to install it (connect, copy, etc…), after I have HEN already up and running, would be very useful since I wouldn’t like to mess up anything

  • henasabi

    xenogears and becus25 are not thieves mang dul
    they are acutally the first one to release
    cfw enabler . . . a lot more earlier than the gen-a
    but i thank both of them
    both of them are good

    • Jhazky

      Apparently, they actually “used” something from GEN-A 5.02 (not GEN-A 5.03) for the earlier version of CFWenabler without permission and then if you read the change log above, it says “Now we use our own systemctrl, not GENyUS ones.” because they “used” the systemctrl of GEN-A 5.03 to make CFE 3.01 again without permission.. It’s a good thing they now used their own systemctrl so hopefully there won’t be any dispute between the devs anymore..

  • isnotfish

    It will open and load the flash, but when I try to run the program it just closes out. When I run again it acts as if I never loaded the flash in the first place…

    any ideas?

  • http://PSPSLIMSILVERM33,PSPSLIMV3brokenLCD Crimson

    Fisrt some of you guys just write shit instead of good questions.
    Second my question : Ive try every CFWE since the one but since ive try GEN-A no one work ive try the uninstall in the 3.2 CFWE but again no more.Pl z I want my ISO/CSO back …. Help me plz or maybe just I have to for a kind of “flash recovery”
    You can e-mail me at bogshit@hotmail.com

  • Haesslich

    If Gen-A doesn’t have an update soon I’ll be switching to this. They’ve had 2 updates since the 3k version was released.

    • http://PSPSLIMSILVERM33,PSPSLIMV3brokenLCD Crimson

      dont try it read my comment just before urs

  • Jhazky

    I tried this but I can’t load plugins.. Reverting back to GEN-A I guess..

  • Cassy

    Can I use Ultimate VSH, and if so, How do i install it?

  • vocalists

    hey joedakeys.. you said that i will put 5.03 firmware on ms roots?? i think your liar!!!

    • Cassy

      You must be the biggest NOOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      • vocalists

        are you stupid also..?? the instruction said put 5.00 firmware not 5.03.. shut up im not talking to you

    • Joedakeys

      You have to if you want to decrypt it. So that you can get pops.prx and popsman.prx from its F0 folder. CFWE 3.2 now supports it. After I installed CFWE feom v3.2 my pops did not want to work no more one way or the other. This was the best solution. so it is the one I recommend for CFWE 3.20 especialy for thoes who’s stopped working after the new update. That’s all. We don’t have to get grimmy for stuff we all are going to use to enable a pirated system on our devices.

      • vocalists

        so u use 5.03 firmware?? did it brick??

      • Jhazky

        You made a typo I think, the 5.00 is the one to be decrypted not the 5.03..

  • Cassy

    To Vocalist the CFWE expert, trust me, what he did does work. when CFWE 3.2 came out they made it clear in other words. just because the instructions said 5.00 don’t mean it can be done. Remenber Syu. He mess things up on his 2000 because he listen the the Gen-A experts. if you haven’t tried, don’t talk.
    JOEDAKEYS DID IT, HE’S NOT FAINT OF HEART, LIKE OTHERS. DON’T HATE THE GAME HATE THE PLAYER…HAHAHA

  • Joedakeys

    Hey listen, lets not make this a fight. OK people… We all are learning here & helping eachother out.

    To Vocalist, I used the Official 5.03 Eboot instead of the 5.00 because after I updated CFWE to 3.2 my psx games would not load one way or the other. My psp is working fine, no brick, psx again run fine.

    • vocalists

      ok ok.. sorry i hate people who are misleading others

      • Joedakeys

        Trust me. I would not tell anyone to do something i did not try on my own device. I would also hate somebody misleaded. I’ve done many hacks. PSP 1000, 2000, 3000…Wii, even palyng copies on disk channel. Blackberrys, Computers, Xbox ipods, iphones and many more. But to everyone, No is not a Typo. I decrypted OFW 5.03 and got its PRX FILES IN MY DEVICE BECAUSE AFTER I UPDATED TO CFWE 3.2 THEY DID NOT WANT TO WORK ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. THIS WAS MY ONLY SOLUTION. BUT THIS WAS GODS GIFT TO ME AND NOT FOR ANYONE ELSE< SO PLEASE LISTEN TO ME AND DO NOT DO IT.

  • Joedakeys

    I meant to say 5.03 pbp on ms0: to decrypt it using new-psrdump and got the prx files needed for psx pops support. That simple. But I did not flash them, as there still remains a flashing problem using the CFWE program. Instead i copied them dirrectly into my device F0/KD folder. Extreme Danger, please use with care!

    • Jhazky

      So CFE 3.20 does not support pops 5.00 anymore. Since the changelog says “Native 5.03 pops support”, so it’s logical to decrypt 5.03 eboot if ever psx games are not working..

      • Joedakeys

        You got it, that’s what I had to do. I myself was surprice. But it worked. Yes it’s logical. I only did it because it said: Featuring native 5.03 pops support and plug-ins will now even work outside of the plug-in folder.

    • Jhazky

      Anyway, have you got the plugins working with this? I know how to install plugins but it seems that CFE 3.20 is not detecting it?

      • Joedakeys

        I got as far as to just that, I’ve been working around my device to detect .prx especially for Ultimat VSH, trying to help cassy. She lives close to me, and I want a date with her. That was her promise, She’s the hootest girl in town.

      • Jhazky

        @Joedakeys

        Oh my.. Good luck with the date.. Anyway I just found out that how lazy psplimhacks is.. I read the original readme file and says that you don’t need to flash the 5.00 pops anymore contrast to what the article said because 5.03 pops is already installed once you flash CFE 5.03. I guess they just copy-pasted it from their other article and didn’t even bother editing it.. Still no luck with plugins though..

  • Joedakeys

    Hey everyone, lets make a race…whoever gets these plugings they talking about to start. is the legal holder of Cassy. She Told me to put this..LOL!

  • Cassy

    Joedakeys, stop playing. this is serious stuff we’re. You’re of topic now. let’s keep talking about PSPs.

    huh, you’re about to loose your date.

    • Joedakeys

      Come on, a little sence of humor wont hurt, even getting of topic a littl so that people could refresh their brains a little, and resume whatever they were doing so that they can get solutions. Also, if you take the date away, imma have to hack into you…LOL

      • Jhazky

        I guess GEN-A is still better that this in terms of plugins support but the memory speed hack is worth noting though..

  • Joedakeys

    Back on topic: It just dawn to me. That we are all using OFW 5.03 to actually run ChickhenR2 and CFWE, we all know that, and that just might be the reason my device did not brick. because I decrypted files most compatible to that pertaining to my OFW of my device. anyone please elaborate. could this be true?

    • Jhazky

      It won’t brick.. Read this taken from the original readme: “Flashing is no longer necessary modules to run the 5.00 pops. I leave here for a manual reinstall of the original 5.03 (The option to install flash pops remain active, if you want to install another version)”. Since 5.03 pops is now supported, we can now use the one from OFW 5.03 but we don’t need to flash any pops anymore since it’s already installed.. Maybe you flashed the 5.00 after installing CFE 3.20 that causes your psx games not to run..

  • vocalists

    in the changelog it said that i will have 5.00m33-6 but the truth is i got 5.03m33-6.. haix cant understand this

    • Joedakeys

      you could swtch it on chang version option in CFWE settings

    • Jhazky

      This is the one from the readme:

      3.20 Changes:
      - Now operating out of the plugins folder seplugins.
      - Systemctrl own, and do not use any form of GENyUS.
      - Now is the version 5.03 M33 – 6.
      - Support for the Pops 5.03 (updated Popcorn).
      - MS Patch speed.
      - Fixed a bug in the use of the option version.txt.
      - How to Quick Start (starts automatically if you do not press R).

      Yeah I know, pspslimhacks got lazy with their article. They even included an instruction to flash 5.00 pops which will prevent you from playing psx games.

  • Joedakeys

    To Jhazky: You’re right. but M33 is the de-facto modules used. Gen-A has too many bugs, and it has damaged many PSPs (I heard). We don’t need to rush. We’ve come a long way, and we have waited so long. I personally am surprice that the team has got this much for us. now i know for sure that it’s all possible. That they will soon be able to load CFW at device initial start up. maybe they wont ever be able to get a compatible ipl. but there are other scripts possible and more leak holes to be discovered. This opens a door for more dicoveries. I will sit back and enjoy the rumble.

    • Jhazky

      The only bug I see from it is the one messed up recovery menu. I don’t believe that it damaged PSPs but there’s a bug that prevent it from launching from PSP 2k but they released a fix (I haven’t tested) on the same thread they posted the first version so nobody noticed the fixed version. I’m not expecting a permanent CFW anytime sooner because I believe it’s right next to impossible but still I’m hoping.. Well I guess I’ll sit back and enjoy too..

      • Joedakeys

        U’re right. people love dark-Alex so they prefer M33 modules.

  • vocalists

    and what does “MS speed patch” do??

    • Joedakeys

      If ur a 088v3 or a 3k owner its nothing for you to worry about. It’s a Memory Stick issue that had plagued some users (usually Phat users and very few earlier 2k models as per my knowledge) since the release of 3.71 CFW.

      • vocalists

        ok ty.. so its useless since i have a 3k

    • Cffw

      don’t listen to him, he’s doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about… MS speed up will make your memstick load faster.

  • Mr X

    Know what? I would much rather prefer to wait for a full fledged release of CFE 4.0 or whatever than all these little bug fixes every 2 to 3 days. Seriously these guys need to take a bit more time to work on it.

    • vocalists

      absolutely.. they are updating this everyday!! maybe nextweek it will be have a stable update

    • Joedakeys

      I here you. In my opinion I’m just somewhat glad that we atleast have something. But i’m with you on that full fledged deal. It would make the world a much easyer and exciting place. & yes it is annoying to have to check the site everday to see what’s new and find out that CFWE went to, let’s say CFWE 4.5.3-qlx BETA, it’s stupid. But hey.

    • Jhazky

      Yes I agree.. The bug fixes doesn’t feel any different anyway..

  • sam

    theres no need for any of these updates really – the 5.03 GEN-A provides everything – all these updates are insignificant

    • vocalists

      the problem is it has many bugs.. but they will gen a v2 soon.. so for the meantime i will use this cfwe

      • Jhazky

        I’m using GEN-A on my other PSP and I don’t see any major bugs on it.. The only bug I see is the messed up menu and it has inability to render TIFF as incompatible image which might make you accidentally activate chickhen and hang your psp..

    • Jhazky

      GEN-A’s plugins support is still superior imo..

  • kee

    How long does it normally take to flash? my psp 3000 has been on this screen with 2 parallel lines and a back button for quite a few minutes now.

    • Joedakeys

      gee, that’s new. Cause it just take a split secound.

    • Jhazky

      back button? It normally take just a blink of an eye to flash.. Try pressing O? I don’t think it’s bricked since it doesn’t overwrite anything from OFW files..

    • Joedakeys

      Q. Did you have anything else install in it previouse to attempting to install CFWE.

    • Jhazky

      Don’t mind the press O thing, I was thinking about GEN-A LOL! How about using UNINSTALL first before Flashing?

  • vocalists

    i thought this also support plug ins???

    • Joedakeys

      It does, and they work fine. you have to set them up @seplugins like usual. Sometimes it’s a little tricky.

  • hey

    Is it still region-free?

  • KG6ZVP

    This works on PSP 3000, correct? Also, can you turn your PSP completely off and turn it back on with it booting straight into CFW Enabler? Or, do I need to launch ChickHEN every time I do a full reboot?

    • Angelo

      You do need to run HEN everytime.

  • ODIN

    seems complicated

    • Joedakeys

      Nah, it’s simple. Follow Kefler’s tutorial in the user/help section.

  • chicken

    what ever happened to chicken hen R3? did they cancel it?

  • Kefler

    @vocalists Yes this supports plugins.
    @hey Yes this does have a region free option.
    @KG6ZVP No this isn’t a CFW release, it’s a CFW Enabler meaning you will have to boot up HEN and the CFW each time you do a hard reboot or shut off your PSP.
    @ODIN Not really. it does have NATIVE support for 5.03 POPs, the dumping of the pops prx from the 5.00 ofw is optional.
    @chicken No announcement has been made saying Davee has canceled R3, so until then, the answer to that is “Still in the works” and “No”

    • marc

      those were good answers to questions i was wondering about too. thank you

    • Jhazky

      Plugins doesn’t work with this release.. You may not want to dump 5.00 pops with this because it will screw the psx games. Actually there’s no need to flash pops as it is already installed.

  • kenpachiroks

    Someone with some tuto experience should write a mega guide for CFWE, which includes plugins, iso, pops etc….
    i’ve seen one for GEN-A and its impressive….

    • Kefler

      You’ll get what you ask for, check the user help section of the forum in a few hours and I’ll have one posted.

  • oh well 2006 psp

    bricked it, even after following the directions. No big deal though

    • Yelnats

      How do you brick?

    • Joedakeys

      U crazy. That thing cost about $250.

  • danieru

    can i have multiple prx files and choos between them?

    • Joedakeys

      Yes
