With the release of the official 3.95 PSP firmware, it was only a matter a time before the PlayStation Portable homebrew community followed suite. It was recently announced that custom firmware 3.95 is currently undergoing its test phase, with an official release to follow soon.
For most of the part, the new custom firmware was reverse engineered from Team M33's work (or at least the 3.93 parts). The team's "fetish programmer"" then coded in the rest of the 3.95 portions into the CFW based on this. On the down side, CFW 3.95 will not support Popsloader since this is an exclusive plug-in from Dark AleX and the current developer has no plans of using it at this time.
Anyway, here are the details of what the next custom firmware will contain since our coverage of the previously released custom firmware 3.93:
- Launch ISO / homebrew 3.xx
- Adding a name to differentiate firmware for PSP to 3.95 standard ones FC (general request in the forums).
- POPS 3.95
- IRShell functional functional except ISO Launch
- PSP 5.0 Filer functional
- Plug-in Capture.prx tested ok
- Plug-in cwcheat.prx tested ok
- Plug-in Recovery LE (Ketchup) and tested ok (except for displaying the version number blocked on 3.90M33 - Update plug-in planned)
- The USB Host is always buggy but works perfectly with a small tip.
- The recovery is still accessible directly via the XMB with the L key
- CXMB does not currently works but we updating the plug-in is underway (just a problem of addresses to settle)
- Popsloader not working. Only Dark_Alex can update its plug-in. Is not planned at this time.
- Taking screenshots should be added. Still under discussion.
Thanks to MaGiXieN for the hot tip!
