Modules of psp3000 cannot be extracted and decrypted yet, due to keys being in 3000 ipl (kernel keys) and mesg_led03g.prx (filenames table keys).

Due to that, you will see various "warnings", just ignore that.

Only useful for TV out.

Probably useful to some.

Quote:    * [Title Display] has been added as an option under [Video Settings].

Doesn't sound exciting - dunno what it is though.

Quote:    * [USB Auto Connect] has been added as an option under [System Settings].

Should've always been there...

Quote:    * [Backlight Auto-Adjust] has been added as an option under [Power Save Settings].

Doesn't it automatically auto-adjust after a while of inactivity?  Or does this allow you to disable it?  If so, then that'd be good for the darkness mod.

Quote:    * The default Theme for the PSP system has been redesigned.

Need to see that first (think it's the black design?)

Quote:    * You can now use a full-size on-screen keyboard.

Need to see how convenient the new OSK is like.



In all, MUCH better than 4.00 update, though still not as good as 2.00 or 3.00 :P

Thanks for that Ryu :P
Here's a "mirror" for the PSAR Dumper

Quote:    * You can now use a full-size on-screen keyboard.

I can't seem to find that keyboard...changing the system name displays the same old osk :(
