Dark AleX working on 3.80 M33 CFW

Here's some good news for those of us looking forward to a new custom firmware for our Sony PlayStation Portables, after the coming of the official 3.80 firmware beast from Sony itself: it seems that none other than Dark Alex himself is working on it, with the official firmware itself already dumped and decrypted. Awesome.

This comes from a forum post from the Sony PlayStation Portable developer himself, in a thread that talks about the official firmware being ripe for the picking. The post, verbatim:


Well, I will not be updating psar dumper until 3.80 M33, as for decompression it needs the 3.80 sysmem function for the new algorithm, but sysmem is also compressed with it. I'll be using the ipl function for internal decryption.

Straight from the homebrew developer's keyboard, and definitely good enough for us. Here's to a quick and flawless release (as always)!

I thought he stopped doing this?

Me too. I remember him talking about retiring his work because people
were stealing it and taking credit for it. I wonder if he was just
over reacting and got over it I'm not sure. I'm not complaining though lol.
