[dlevere]

Hacker Mathieulh has released the source of the M33 CFW, as well as for Despertar Del Cementerio, two essential tools back in the days of PSP hacking. This release celebrates the 10th anniversary of the tools. M33 meant "March 33rd", or April 2nd.

It's always weird to see Mathieulh doing anything useful because the 1st and only time I ever always saw him was the PS3 scene and he was like the Donald Trump of it. He'd just be around claiming to unquestionably know this and that and there were 2 giant camps of people kissing his butt nonstop hoping to get goodies while the other side hated him and called him out saying he's worthless and doesn't know anything and that all of his followers were idiots. Is it really the same guy???

Yup, it's him.

PSP Release: Despertar Del Cementerio 9.00, with PSP 3000 03g and TA-088v3 compatibility.

Developer balika011 has released an update to Despertar Del Cementerio, the popular PSP unbricking tool. This new version, based on DDC7 source code and some heavy reverse engineering of DDC8, brings compatibility to the infamous TA88v3 motherboards, as well as the first generation of PSP 3000 (03g). This follows impressive releases of a new kind of Pandora battery (Baryon Sweeper) that supports the PSP models historically known as tough nuts to crack.

It’s exciting to see breakthroughs like this for a console that stopped production years ago, thanks to the dedication of a handful of hackers.
