Warning!


The following steps require flashing. Do so at your own risk. No-one will be held responsible but yourself if something stuffs up.

Let’s get started


1) Download all the files above and extract them To one folder
2) Go into 3.71m33 file (UPDATE) there should be 2 files in there umodule.prx and EBOOT.PBP. copy the 3.71 official update to the update folder called “371.PBP” without “””
3) Enable USB connection Copy the UPDATE folder to GAME (MS/PSP/GAME
4) Run the installer in the game click X and it should go into what looks like a Sony installer Sony installer, don’t worry it isn’t
5) Once done your PSP should restart then you will be on 3.71m33 .YAY
6) IMPORTANT before you do anything go to system setting, restore factory settings. This is important because some people have reported a brick because the settings are corrupted.
7) Enable USB connection Delete the old update in PSP/GAME
8) Go to 1.50 add on (UPDATE) there should be 3 files in there EBOOT.PBP, libpsardumper.prx, pspdecrypt.prx.
9) Copy the file to PSP/GAME
10) Get the 1.50.pbp Sony official update and copy it to the PSP root with the name 150. (MS/150.)
11) Exit USB go click GAME and run the application (if application isn’t there or wont work enable USB and rename the 1.50.pbp or 150. to 150.PBP)
12) You now have 1.50 update, once again restore factory settings.
13) Delete the 1.50 add on off the memory stick.
14) The next thing is pretty straight forward
15) ENABLE USB CONNECTION
16) Go to the folder 3.71m33-2 (UPDATE)
17) Copy the UPDATE to PSP/GAME
18) Run it off GAME then delete it
19) You now should have firmware 3.71m33-2
20) Now to put on the 150 add on 2
21) Open the file 150kernel_addon2 then UPDATE copy the four files to (PSP/GAME.
22) Hopefully you still should have the 1.50 official Sony update at the root of the memory stick (refer to step 10)
23) Exit USB and run the Application
24) You should now have the updated version of the 1.50 kernel.

Shout out to Russdogg for the work he's put into explaining this for us.
