As promised yesterday, Team M33 has finally released their PSP Slim Custom Firmware 3.60! Hey, if there's one thing we know about committed homebrew developers, it's keeping the promises you make - which, as we previously heard, Fanjita did despite supposedly being retired already.

So, has everyone got their PSP Slim already? Nice, on with the Team M33's notes!


We are proud to present the first custom firmware for the PSP Slim, and the first custom firmware that runs using a 3.XX IPL (3.60).


3.60 M33 for PSP Slim has all the features of 3.52 M33, except the 1.50 kernel support, as that kernel doesn't work properly on psp slim (hardware problems, screen problems). 3.60 M33 will load homebrew from GAME, GAME150 and GAME360 directories, but all will be executed with 3.60 kernel.


This mean that some homebrews done specifically for the 1.50 kernel cannot work on 3.60 M33. However, the adaptation of code to 2.XX+ kernels is not difficult, and homebrew developers can port their aplications to work in these firmwares.

While we've posted just as much here, you still have to go look at the readme file included in the download archive. We can't stress this enough. This is the PSP Slim we're talking about here - uncharted territory and all that - everyone might even consider themselves as newbies despite how "veteran" they've been in the homebrew scene.

Now, we're talking about a custom firmware here, and unless you know what you're doing, your brand spanking new PSP Slim & Lite will be reduced to nothing but a PSP Brick & Mortar.

Also consider that, since there's already been talk going around town that the Pandora's Battery doesn't work with the PSP Slim, you should take caution all the more.
