Hi there, I'm having a problem with updating my psp to the latest "firmware".
Okay, so it's CFW 3.52 M33-2, and when i try updating it gets STUCK!
Like this is what happens, "Unpacking... done
Please wait... "
and so i wait... and it doesn't do anything!
stuck like that forever! I formatted my mem stick in hopes that it might work, but obviously nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just want to update :(:(:(

I think you may need to update to 3.52 M33-3 first, then upgrade again to whatever else.
 
I was trying to update to CFW 4.01. And thanks for the help! I will try out what you suggested now.
Oh, and it's a PHAT.

okay, so i tried the recovery flash method, but my it said i had to launch from the xmb, which i'm sure i did? so i tried normal CFW update method to 3.71
M33, but my psp said it can't update because it requires 3.52M33-3 or higher. My psp system information says i'm using 3.52M33-4???
 
Switch your psp off. Hold the R button and boot up again. In the menu, go to Advanced then Format flash 1. Now it will be 3.52 m33-4 if you had installed.

You usually get this issue if you skip any of the m33 updates in between. eg. you skipped m33-2 and 3 and did 4.
 
Hey thanks for the help guys. I formatted the flash, everything working perfect again. Something was corrupt. Thanks for the help!
