custom gameboot not working in 3.40 OE-A
greetings. i just flashed to 3.40 O3-A, and i have a bit of an issue: a long time ago i flashed a custom gameboot, it worked well under 1.50 and all incarnations of 3.03 OE, but now with 3.40 OE-A it stopped working altogether. it's strange, because the filesize is 248KB and shouldn't represent a problem, so i was wondering if they changed anything in the gameboot code and if it was fixable, since I'm really fond of it and don't want it to fade away :( any ideas to make it work?

If you're using the usb/flash0 method, use a homebrew program to flash the files.

Try deleting the file first and then copy the file to flash0

yeah, I'm using the usb/flash0 method, but I'm failing to see the difference from using a flash program: what difference would it make if i did? do they apply structural changes to the PMF file or something? because I'm not really sure how it could otherwise help me Oo

RE: custom gameboot not working in 3.40 OE-A
update: i tried flashing the modified game_plugin.prx to the nodule folder and see if anything would change, but that made the PSP freeze when trying to launch anything, and since I'm a dunce i forgot to make a backup of that file and half-bricked. I'm still shocked O.O now I'm in the process of restoring everything, but I'm almost tempted to revert to my dinky 3.03 Erk

right, so what alternatives do wee have? maybe $ony encrypted that bit of data as well and the firmware is expecting to find it untampered? I'm not too savvy about hexing, but i hope it whatever the cause may be it will be easily fixed, it only feels half-custom like this :/

I have no idea why you guys are having so much trouble.

I've been using the same gameboot ever since the 1.50 days all the way through half a dozen custom firmwares until today.

Post your PMFs and I'll flash them myself.

Yeah but my gameboot is too big to put on the flash0. I need t use the gbmod to change the path of the gameboot.
