Ba-da-bing, ba-da-boom. If there's a hitch, Dark AleX is here to stitch. And the revered custom firmware developer presents a quick patch to allow the loading of 3.71 fatmsmod.prx for quicker memory stick reading on DAX' 3.80 and 3.90 M33 custom firmwares. So naturally, that's to all users of Sony's PlayStation Portable running those the author's CFWs.
Please be reminded that this is the patch to allow the loading of the aforementioned memory stick module, fatmsmod.prx, on your more modern custom firmware. So we repeat: this isn't a full fix for those who find memory stick reading irritatingly slow. You're going to have to get your hands dirty and flex your psardumping muscles to transfer a 3.71 fatmsmod.prx over to your targeted 3.80/3.90 M33-powered PSP.
The archive you see listed below carries an EBOOT that will automate the flashing process for the fatmsmod.prx you've transferred, plus form a way to make the newly flashed PRX more compatible for the recent custom firmware. There's a tradeoff to this, however.
As QJ.NET reader akadewboy points out in the comments below, you will experience a speedup in memory stick loading. But you may also notice how your stored pictures, MP3 files, and videos are no longer being read properly as they should. Some people have claimed this has happened to them, so be wary of the possible consequences.
If you do decide that it's worth a try anyway, remember to read the bundled documentation before planning your next steps out.
UPDATE:
Thanks to a tip from Torch, we've just learned that Dark AleX has updated the patch with the following new information:
* Added to the installer the check of correct checksum of fatmsmod.prx. Use only encrypted or decrypted version of file.
* Music, videos, etc now work.
As we mentioned earlier, this still takes a bit of work to get up and running, so folks may want to keep checking the forums for additional information.
