    hi you all

    i have the psp 3004 vb versie 5.03 9a
    so at first i installed chickhen r2 en then 5.03 gen-c
    okee so far so good and version said 5.03 gen c full
    but when i load games (tekken6) in a new folder ISO i my memory card
    you wont see it and when i load a nother game in the folder you see it(avator)
    but when start the game the psp lock it self en become version 5.03 again
    can sombody help me with my problem please

    Do i need this cfwe 3.7 to load the games or is it somthing else.
    please im suffering on this now

    • iGEN

      You don’t need this CFWE. Make sure the ISO folder is in the root of the memory card and use a valid dump of Tekken 6.

  • cboushell

    If you already have GEN-C installed why would you want to use this? GEN-C does everything this does and also lets you play new games, with this you can’t play any games that require a FW higher than 5.03. This is really a step backwards as far as I am concerned.

  • assmunch

    some people still prefer m33/mhu firmware over gen. i think that those people had a valid argument back when m33 was still being developed. it is now a dead project (or at least it has been for a while now).
    gen-c (and for that matter gen-b) is miles ahead of this.

    thank you to to the becus25 and xenogears for this and all of your hard work that you continue to do for the scene. however i personally do not see the benifit in this over the work that team gen has done, as they continue to write new code and not just update features for a cfw written by someone else.

  • cen

    i think im going to cry
    games in ISO map in memory like:

    Map: ISO
    Map: MP_ROOT

    en_recovery

    I see the game running in memorycard two getter with gen-c
    but wen started it says this could not start 80020321
    this without any umd game in slot
    Exuse me for the engels im dutch (reply 14)

        wat bedoel je
        deze kut ding speelt geen copie spellen af.
        niet in gen a b of c
        zit nu op 5.03 gen b full

  • cen

    By the way i havent played any iso game yet on my
    psp 3004 beside orig. harry potter :( :( …………

  • GozUer

    well…. i was using GEN-C, when i ran the 3.70 i said flash and start, he flashed he started and the shut off… i used 3.50 and 3.60 earlier and went all nice, i used gen-c because the 3.60 did no support new games, and now when i tried 3.70 my psp wont boot any CFW now my psp just shuts off… i think i can solve this by formatting flash1 right? in Recovery Menu but how can i get there? MY PSP WONT CFW NOW! what can i do! i formatted psp and nothing! i can only run “Installer-Loader”————————

    • assmunch

      i would try to put an older version of cfw enabler, 3.30 maybe. dont install this older firmaware just hold L when starting it. should see an option to uninstall firmware. thats what you want to do. after that erase 3.30 off memory card.

      at that point you should reboot psp, run chickhen, and then install gen-a, b and c in that order. this will have you back at gen-c

      the most important thing here is to uninstall all cfw before you do anything else

  • deFATpanda

    this shit doesn’t work. Don’t install

    • GozUer

      what do you mean?

      • GozUer

        i cant run ANY CFW only chickhen and installer loader, any time i run a cfw from mhu2d or GEN my psp just shuts down, but with gen he says reboot now ur psp into GEN-C bla bla bla but the shuts down……… how can i reset everything!

    • GozUer

      OMFG thanks for you precious help! you gave me a great idea that i forgot! running the recovery emergency of GEN-C by pressing L, i uninstalled the GEN-C and restored to version 5.03 then i ran GEN-C its all done! good as new! thank you so much! i wont run 3.70 anymore!!!!!!

  • Skyline969

    In my opinion, CFWE still pales in comparison to GEN, especially since even GEN-B where you don’t need to decrypt games (except for BRAND NEW ones that Team GEN didn’t get)

  • cen

    (reply 14/17)

    Is now system 5.03 gen-b full
    but still not playing game
    by the way i have 2 games in iso folder but only shows 1
    My stuped ass for buying a psp instead nintendo dsi

    • assmunch

      what was the official firmware of your psp. if it is anything other than 5.03 you are out of luck. also you may want to uninstall all cfw from your psp, and then start again. be sure tat the games in the iso folder are not in individual folders, all isos are in root.
      btw can you tell us
      1) what is your ofw
      2) all the steps you have taken so far to install gen
      3) where you placed your isos (should be ISO folder, isos in the root of iso folder)
      4) when in gen-b press select . look for umd iso mode. make sure it is set for m33 driver.
      anyway hope we can help you cen

  • cen

    well sir
    i have bought the psp 3004 vb with harry potter pack
    softwareversion 5.03 on place of batery i saw : 9a
    At first i install chickhen r2.ok
    then 5.03 gen c.okee so far version was 5.03 gen-c full
    After hocking up with the pc i made a iso folder and but 2 games in it
    avator and tekken 6 but i only see avator and wen you run the game
    it say error nummer 80020123
    so i flash with 5.03 gen a.ok
    then again with 5.03 gen-b and now i have systemsoftware 5.03 gen-b(full)
    put on m33 driver past god of war in to ISO folder but the psp doesnt see
    the game at all in memorycard
    So assmunch hope you can link anything

    • assmunch

      uninstall all cfw. i think it is done by holding L button when selecting 5.03 gen-c. then see an option to do so. not sure about that though. after complete uninstall turn off psp. restart chickhen. run gen-a, then run gen-b, then put gen-c on top of that. i think you should have done gen a first, not gen c. but problem can be fixed by unistalling all cfw and starting over. read an earlier posts on this thread. another guy had same problem as you.

      • blur

        don’t bother with running gen-a and gen-b
        just uninstall all the previous version of whatever cfw you have on your PSP
        and run gen-c straight away

      • cen

        i now did all that install first gena then b
        but error like 80020123 and 80020148 so think maybe its my memorycrd
        is the problem couse it isnt a origal psp card

  • gamer96

    am a big fan of mhu but as far as i heard u cant play the new games that require 6.10 firmware so i really dont get wy they would release this no hard feelings just my thought on it other ppl thoughts will be different

  • Silver3ice

    I have a psp 1001 phat, I put Chickhen R2 but it not working, when I go look in the picture it shut off but don’t have chickhen R2 ??? help plez

  • keno

    @mhu2d team
    don’t make cfwe anymore,just concentrate on your’s mhuspeed(chicken alternative) for psp3000 that will run on ofw 5.50+,this your chance because chickhen is dead on R2,this your competence against team GEN
    Team GEN make CFW
    Team MHU make HEN
    as all we know cfw need HEN to run on psp3000
    if you(mhu team) can make new HEN(for psp3000) that can run on fw 5.50 or 5.51 or 5.55,they(magixien) will not call you(mhu team) thieves anymore because team GEN cfw will run on your(team MHU) HEN for psp3000
    That will be proud for you team MHU ,because you are on top as new HEN maker for fw 5.50+ for psp3000

    • assmunch

      sorry keno to dash your hopes but here are the facts.
      1) the original cfwe were only possible do to code stolen from team gens 5.03 gen-a
      2) mhu is not a custom firmware it is a rip off of m33. nothing more nothing less.
      3) mhuspeed is nothing more than a chickhen r2(credit davee) mod. what they took credit for on that one was bogus. they only changed a few lines of code. they did not discover anything new.
      in short if you think these guys are gonna do anything for you, you are wrong. they know way more than i do about psp programing. problem is they have no original ideas. they take from others ideas, and rename them, sometimes with improvements, sometimes not. but never give cred to the original devs.
      these guys are theives that know how to code for psp. they try and i thank them for that. but they are theives of others work.

  • tadapapaya

    Nice work’s… but i hope they will fix some problem on cfw 3.70. I hope they make the new cfw will able to play 6.20 and highest version games. I was more interested in using the MHU, if the cfw be able to play 6.20 and highest version games. Increase efforts. thx u

  • wayok69

    any difference or bugs between 3.70 and gen-c ??!??

  • cuddles.

    YOU ALL ARE IDIOTS?!

    you MUST UNINSTALL all previous versions of cfw`s and then you can install the new one.

    1. if you have CFWEnabler and you want to switch it to GEN, then go in you`r CFWEnabler by holding down R trigger and then choose uninstall option. then restart you`r PSP and run ChickHEN R2 and run GEN installer.

    2. if you have GEN and you want to switch it to CFWEanbler, then restart you`r PSP and run ChickHEN R2 and then run CFWEanbler. you must choose uninstall option so you can uninstall any previous versions of CFW`s. and naw you`r abble to install CFWEnabler.

  • deadlybiohazard

    any body got a tutorial to unistall 3.60 and install gen-C i got a TA090-v2 mobo

    • cuddles.

      doh! are you blind? look at my post above you. do 1. step and be happy

  • Ggio

    to install 3.60 all you need to do is hold your psp above your head and slam it to the ground and VOILA! its installed! now open the LCD and there look at the system it says current firmware 3.60 full

    • Boianeze

      Lame….

  • yojo201

    Why do people call this and gen Custom firmware? Technically it appears to be software. An easy example of firmware is your computers BIOS. If GEN or this was real firmware then you would be able to shut down your psp. When i shut off my psp it clears the memory and goes back to its true firmware.

    • Boianeze

      Technically you’re a dumbass

    • assmunch

      thats very true. it is called custom firmware because when it is enabled it hides official firmware and this becomes the firmware (hopfully not this as gen-c is way better).
      for the psps that need this there is no other way than to write to memory, and not overwrite bios. doing so would lead to a broken machine. the permanent solution will come but this type of cfw is very much appreciated, as it is more than we had before. and i dont mind chickhen because no it loads first time every time. then load gen-c. fast. then i am there,

  • zero233

    im not complaining about this firmware but they should have put the sedna feature in this

  • Boianeze

    They should called this CFWEnabler 3.61

  • coin3223

    when your using this you change your firmware number in version.txtt thats cool heh i just changed it to version 6.66 and box saying “MWAHAHAHAHAHA” appeared lol
