Surprise, surprise, surprise! A new custom firmware has been released by homebrew coder U3-Robot. Custom Firmware 5.50 U3R is based on the recently released 5.50GEN by GENyUS with some additional features like a shutdown option for VSH menu and speed up option for recovery menu.

CFW 5.50 U3R changes from 5.50 GEN:

  • VSH Menu has SHUTDOWN DEVICE option.
  • Recovery Menu has SPEEDUP MS options.
  • PSX games may work, but I’m not 100% sure (this means NOT TESTED).

Installation procedure:

  • You must install first 5.50 GEN as a shell (framework).
  • Copy u3rloader folder from a zip file to /PSP/GAME
  • Start 5.50U3R Installer from Game – Memory stick.
  • Click X to install firmware.
  • Enjoy!

And here is the changelog for 5.50 U3R-2:

  • Fixed PSX Games – they are now working. (tested on Gran Turismo)
  • Fixed exit with O button – now working.
  • Added built-in plugins: (only for psp-2000, and still under construction)
  • LEDControl 0.2 (not working on my 2000)
  • Hold+ 3.7 (working on my 2000)
  • MusicPRX 390 (not working on my 2000)

Installation procedure:

  • You must install first 5.50 GEN or 5.50 U3R as a shell (framework).
  • Delete u3rloader folder from /PSP/GAME if it is.
  • Copy u3rloader folder from a zip file to /PSP/GAME
  • Start 5.50U3R Installer from Game – Memory stick.
  • Click X to install firmware or Up with plugins.
  • Enjoy!

As always, please be careful in installing any app that deals with your flash, if you do not know what you are doing there is a chance of bricking your PSP.
