Play games that require OFW 5.55 and 6.00
Posted by 
September 30, 2009 •
So you’ve tried the version.txt hack and it didn’t turn out well (in short, it didn’t work for you). It’s admittedly a hit or miss bypass since not all games relied on checking a version.txt file to see if you were running the right firmware version. To date, the best and most reliable way to be able to play games that require OFW 5.03 to 5.50 is to upgrade to 5.50 GEN-A/5.50 GEN-B (no luck for partially hackable PSPs).
But what if you had a game that requires 5.55 or 6.00? Well, there’s this method.
Important Update: This guide has long since been outdated by Sony’s recent patches, to play the latest PSP games, you need the Prometheus module. You can find the install for 5.03 GEN-C, 5.50 GEN-3, 5.50 GEN-D4 and 5.00 M33 linked here.
Important Note: This is ONLY for PSP users who have the following custom firmware installed: 5.50 GEN-A, 5.50 GEN-B, 5.50 MHU, 5.03 GEN-A, 5.03 MHU and 5.00 M33. If you have anything below this, consider upgrading.
Update: Added Eboot Patcher for people running 5.00 M33, 5.03 GEN-A, and 5.03 MHU.
Requirements:
- A PSP with any of the following firmware installed: 5.50 GEN-A, 5.50 GEN-B, 5.50 MHU, 5.03 GEN-A, 5.03 MHU and of course 5.00 M33.
- Download: UMDGen | UMDGen
- Download : Game Decrypter v4 | Game Decrypter v4
Important Note: version 4 of Game Decrypter works well with 5.00 M33, 5.03 MHU and 5.50 MHU. 😀
- Open the ISO of the game you want to hack with UMDGen
- Important: Go to File > File lists > Export and save it as game.txt.
- Go to PSP_GAME > SYSDIR. You should see an eboot.bin file.
- Right click on the eboot.bin file and choose Extract Selected. Place it somewhere on your PC that’s easy to remember. The desktop is good. Just don’t close UMDGen yet, you’ll still need it later
- Extract the files for Game Decrypter to your PC. Copy the PSP folder from the extracted files right into the root of your memory stick. Note: The root of your memory stick is the actual drive your PC sees when you connect your PSP.
- Copy the eboot.bin that you’ve extracted in step 5 to the root of your memory stick. Note: If your PSP is F:, it should appear as F:\eboot.bin
- Disconnect your PSP from your PC and run Game Decrypter from the XMB
- You will see the screen below. If you’re on 5.50 GEN-B2 Press X to decrypt the eboot.bin. If you’re on 5.00 M33 or 5.03 GEN_A or 5.03 MHU, press O
- Connect your PSP to your PC again. At the root of your memory card, you should see a new folder called DECRYPTOR. Copy the eboot.bin that’s inside it to your PC.
Important Note: If you’re running 5.00 M33 or 5.03 GEN-A or 5.03 MHU, make sure to follow the steps below:Eboot Patcher
- Download and extract the Eboot Patcher (Mirror 1).
- Start PC program Eboot Patcher (the executable is named Patch.exe)
- Clicking on Browse, select the EBOOT.bin by patch
- Click on Go! to patch the file
- On your PC, Add the newly decrypted eboot.bin into the SYSDIR folder that’s on UMDGen by right clicking on the right pane, Add > Add files.
- On your PC, Add the newly decrypted eboot.bin into the SYSDIR folder that’s on UMDGen by right clicking on the right pane, Add > Add files.
- Import the game.txt that you’ve extracted in step 2 via File > File List > Import.
- Save (Rebuild) your game as CSO or ISO
- Your game should work now.
Important: Make sure you delete the Decryptor folder on your PSP before trying to decrypt a new game.
FAQS:
Help! I’m getting just a black screen when playing a game hacked with this method. You have a game that’s not compatible with this method 🙁 Either that or your missed a step. Try to look for an eboot.bin file, skip to step 9 and test it out if you want.
Is this safe? Yes. 100% Safe

I don’t have a USB cable. Can I use card reader to copy files from PC to XMB and XMB back to PC for the decryption?
Yep. That’s not a problem.

The best way for you to go about it is to look for a hacked version of the game. I’ll try to compile one for you but I’m currently busy >_>

When i ran the Game Decrypter, it says the file is corrupted. I already re-downloaded the file and it is still the same. Any help?
is your psp is CFW??
or ur just missing a file..
if i download other versions of the game statated above,will it work without decryption. i.e. us version of gran turismo?tnx
Yep, once the game has been patched (decrypted, edited, etc), you’ll be able to run it on 5.50 GEN-B2
so i nedd to patch the game as stated above once i ran 5.5 gen b2? without decrypting it anymore?tnx again
will it not run on gen b?
tnx
hello. help me, i’m already in NUMBER 7 but when i place the the EBOOT in the memory card and try to decrypt it, the screen says cannot decrypt games eboot. then i connect my psp to the pc the decrypted folder appears but its empty. what should i do?
hi, i successfullly got the EBOOT in the decrypted folder, my problem now is i can’t save the new .cso or or .iso, it appears to be an error, when i try to import it manually, the only file read is .txt no .bin help me
I missed a couple of steps… The post didn’t save properly when I added it this weekend 🙁 You can try it again now. It should work.
I love how the first decrypter link is a zip full of BOOBIES.
LOL. I saw it too. The link has been replaced with a new one.
can some1 help me make Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days (USA) hacked ? because i make few times with using 5.03 GEN A and still cant load >.> my msn is [email protected]
guys!. can i use this method to decrypt psx games so i can play it on my psp?
hi. im a bit confuse with STEP 1 to 4. in step 1 you want me to open the iso/cso game in the UMDGEN, we can do this by open the UMDGEN then inside of it we just click the open then look for the path of the game but in step 2 you want me to do this “Go to File > File lists > Export and save it as game.txt” but if i do this there is no .txt game in the folder of my game thus i can’t see anything. so how can i save the game in .txt? in step 3 you want me to open the iso/cso game. does this mean i need to save 2 copies of the game? one in .txt and the other in .cso or .iso? coz if i have .txt this file does extract the EBOOT.bin appreciate if you could add picture on how you do the step 1 to 4. thank you so much in advance.
*sigh* I knew I should’ve provided pics. I decided against it because I worded the instructions to be followed easily. Guess it had the opposite effect.
For clarification:
Step 2: You just need to export the file list to a text file. It’s not a copy of the contents of the UMD, it’s just a list of files.
As indicated in the screenshot that I’ve just added, you can name it anything you like and place it anywhere you like. I just chose “game.txt” by default so you have something to name the file with. You will need this file in Step 12.
if you’re curious as to what the text file of the exported file list contains:
Step 3: I said you just need to reopen UMDGen THEN load the ISO again.
Anyone got Gran Turismo working with this method and are using 5.00 M33 custom firmware? I’m getting just a black screen when loading Gran Turismo
GT won’t work with 5.00 M33. I’ve already tried it and I was forced to update to 5.50 GEN-B2 just to play it.
Right. Guess I have no choice but to upgrade to GEN then..
Thanks for replying, and so quick too 🙂
Hi, i’ve done every step. I just can’t have gran turismo work on 5.03gen… any comments on this? i just get a black screen then the psp hangs…
Gt or Motor Storm Arctic edge can only work on 5.50 version, i can play it nw coz my version is 5.50 Gen-A(full)
can i upgrade my psp 3000 5.03 gen A to 5.50 gen A? can i still download games?
No. You’ll just brick your PSP-3000.
Updated the post with complete pics.
thank you for the pictures. i will try to do the procedures this weekend. mwah!
I am having the same problem. What did you do to fix it?
HI. im wondering, if you say that the games above are working now, do you have that games that are working so we can just download it and play it, instead of doing the procedures above? sounds lazy, just a taught. maybe you have a site that we can download those hacked games. thank you!
I’m uploading some of them (at the moment Gran Turismo for 5.50 GEN… I’ll be uploading a version for 5.00 M33 afterwards) as a matter of fact :D. Head to this post for the latest updates.
I did this on my PSP 2004 with chickhen r2 + 5.03 M33-6 but cant get games to work.
Tryd it with GT US+EU Dirt2 Tetrist mini.
I think i want to go to 5.03 GEN-A because it all seems to work on gen’s but how can i do that?
I had 5.03 MHU(cfw 3.6) before, then i tryd to install GEN-A but that didnt work, and MHU didnt load after that either anymore so i put M33-6 (CFW 3.5) on and that one did work again.
Is there someway to uninstall the CFW’s out of the flash (0 it is afaik)?
Which version of Game Decrypter did you download? I just updated the links a few hours back so I’m wondering if you downloaded the current one (version 4).
Also, no. There’s no way for you to permanently install CFW yet.
I used v4. Maybe it doesnt work on 5.03 yet? Cos i see alot of problems with ppl that have 5.03 😛
I know that i dont perma install CFW but when i tryd to install GEN-A it didnt reboot as it should so i thougt oke not working. Lets boot CFW MUH again, but that went to black screen aswell and had to pull out batery.
So then i thought CFW maybe was still in some flash mem part cos you have to ‘install’ it first time, and because of that it might sat in the way for GEN-A.
IN STEP 11 !!
I having a eror while saving plz help me
hi. i tried to decrypt disgaea 2 using the step by step above, then when i tried the game, the psp said the game couldn’t be started. i have 5.03 gen A full. in step 10 when i copy eboot.bin, i pressed YES, is that right? your highlighted NO in the picture above. so im wondering if pressing YES made the game not to start. please help me. what did i do wrong? i followed everything in the picture and instruction.
also, there are to 2 EBOOT.bin in the game, one inside the SYSDIR and 1 in the UPDATE folder. which of the 2 do i need to extract in step 4 i know to made clear to extract ht EBOOT.bin under SYSDIR, just checking. another thing, can i delete the EBOOT.bin in the DECRYPTOR FOLDER and in the main directory before i decrypted the file? just checking if these are the reason for the game not to start. please help me. thanks in advance.
waah! =,( i tried to decrypt gran turismo, it hanged and close. congratulation to me, my 5.03 gen A full was gone, and im back to 5.03. huhu. so sad… help me fix my problem,,,, thank you.
*sigh* Just reinstall chickhen and 5.03 gen-a. As for your problems with the guide, turns out it was the game decrypter’s fault.. the older version (version 1 and 2) that is. It’s at version 4 right now (the links are updated) and it now fully supports every other CFW all the way down to 5.00 M33.
what if i have a custom firmware 5.00 m33-6? will it work ?
Yep.. Just be sure to run the part with Eboot Patcher.
do i need to download that ?
where can i run the eboot patcher ?
Eboot Patcher is meant only for people who want to play 5.55 and 6.00 requiring games on 5.00 M33, 5.03 GEN-A and 5.03 MHU.
Thanks man.. U are a lifesaver.. Keep up da good work!
i have another problem, im in step 9, under patching the EBOOT, but my pc said the file was not patched. what did i do wrong now? i already use the version 4 of decrypter. please help! thanks
What game are you trying to patch? I may have already uploaded the 5.00 M33 and 5.03 GEN-A compatible version on http://www.isosandroms.com
the Eboot Patcher just won’t patch my EBOOT.BIN no matter how many times I try to do it.
can you help please?
What error are you getting? I’m guessing that you’re trying to patch an eboot file that was already patched before.
nevermind. I skipped the Eboot patcher step and moved on to the next step and the game still worked ^^
question: can I play the renamed ISO file that I’ve decrypted to another PSP so I don’t have to decrypt the game again?
So long as it’s not a game decrypted on a 5.50 gen psp that you’re going to run on a 5.00 M33 or 5.03 gen-a one, you’ll be fine.
My Tales ofVS doesn’t seem to work by doing this steps…. but when I tried it for my Disgaea 2, it works.
Can you help me here?
g.i. joe, gran turismo, it couldn’t patched. y? i have 5.03 gen A full. i have a vista laptap, does vista allow dis kind of patch?
Uploaded: Gran Turismo for 5.00 M33
That will work with 5.03 GEN-A.
I’ll work on GI Joe.
please help patched the EBOOT.bin. thanks
i also tried motorstorm, stil can’t patched. huhu. btw, in step 8, why do we have to press X and not O? if O can decrypt and patched Eboot.bin then maybe i don’t need to use the EBOOT patcher, just a thought. still need your expertise. please help. thanks, i have 5.03 gen A full and a vista laptap.
Oh forgot about Step 8. I’ll edit that part.
Hi.
I dont understand step 5.Extract the files for Game Decrypter to your PC,but how?If I put psp folder to the root it will overwrite the original psp folder?
*sigh* it will prompt you if you want to overwrite the files on your memory stick but since the CONTENTS of the folder you’re copying aren’t there yet you won’t be overwriting anything. You’re just basically taking a shortcut instead of individually copying single files to their correct directories.
OK. Now I have a a problem with step 8. I cant decrypt.I pressed the o button,but it said cannot decrypt file.The folder is there but it is empty? I have 5.03 mhu.
it still doesn’t patched. im trying to patch gran turismo. huhu. help me, what’s wrong with my psp or laptap? in step 8, if i press the O sine i have 5.03 gen A, do i still need to do step 9, patched the EBOOT.bin? coz in step 9, i can’t patched the eboot.bin please help me.
Didn’t I give you the link to GT for M33 already?
yes, but how can i patched other games if i cn’t patched GT. how can i succeed in patching the games that you mentioned above working. help me please?
the eboot patcher didn’t work so i just took the eboot i decrypted and add it to the iso and it work with no problems so far surprised i run 5.03MHU custom firmware enabler 3.60
What game was it?
help me with my problem please. btw, does the game needs to be iso before decrypting or is it ok if it is cso?
I can not decrypted the eboot
leaves a message and does not create any files in the folder.
greetings
Oh. And one more thing: I’ve read that that for Persona, you’ll have to switch your “UMD ISO MODE” to “Sony NP9660” from the “M33 VSH MENU”… Remember in order to access this menu, press the “SELECT” button after your psp is booted up.
I had the same problem trying to decrypt certain iso’s. Yes, it can be a cso and you can decrypt and patch it, thea. But if you’re trying to decrypt the iso/cso and its unable to, chances are that you’re using an iso/cso that has already been decrypted for a different firmware. You’ll have to download a different iso or cso, or you can download the EBOOT.BIN file that’s been patched for the iso you have. Make sure it’s been patched for the same firmware YOU’RE using! That’s what I had to do for GT Portable…
I just tried this with SMT: Persona (USA) but the part with the eboot patcher won’t work. It always says that the eboot.bin is not patched. So i tried it without that step on my M33-6 and I got the game to start at least but after the intro movie the game stays black. I can quit the normally though. Anyone knows how to get SMT: Persona working on M33-6?
Change your UMD mode to Sony 😀
didn’t know it would be this easy, seems to work fine now. Thanks for the advice, I’ll bother you again if something comes up ~.^
hi! just downloaded umdgen but when I run it, it says “UMD generator has stopped working”… anyone who can help me?
Hey i noticied you reply alot and know your stuff.
One thing that has stumped everyone is trying to get fullmetal alchemist to work, can you?
Thanks, I haven’t tried FMA so I don’t know if decrypting it will work but I do know that like the Evangelion game, it detects CFW preventing psps with CFW to play it.
why i get error after proceding in step # 12…
when im was saving it i got error..please teach me the proper way in step 12..
tnx
please help me in step 10..
please give me the full information about step 10..tnx
Grand_Theft_Auto_Chinatown_Wars_USA_PSN_PSP-HR works on 5.50 GEN-B after decrypting eboot.bin by Decrypter V4.
Regards 🙂
i did all the steps with persona but the eboot was unable to patch with the patcher, so i continue on with the rest, when i load the game its goes into a black screen, tried changing umd to sony but still cant, please help thank you
Hey guys,I have just installed 5.50 GEN-D Firmware,how can i get this to work?
When i start the decryptor which version of psp should i choose?Should i press X or O?
I pressed O,decrypted the file successfuly but then the patcher which you browse for the decrypted eboot.bin created a file named “eboot.bin.bak”(it’s in the same folder with the eboot.bin) Which file should i have to choose to replace the original eboot.bin in UMDGEN?eboot.bin.bak or eboot.bin?
You don’t need this if you have 5.50 GEN-D.
hi, can any one help me? i just installed 5.50 gen-a, then i put in ‘dissidia final fantasy’ and it come out “the game could not be started (80020148)
Press and hold select until you see the VSH menu, change the UMD mode to M33 driver.
it stiil the same… and gran turis mo also… it came out the same word…
Can i play GTA Chinatown wars with this method?
You can use this method or install 5.50 GEN-D (if your PSP is hackable) or 5.03 GEN-B if it’s not
When i try to patch the eboot.bin with the eboot patcher i get the error:The file Did Not Patched!
The file you’re trying to patch has already been patched.
hi…this page helped me alot…..im using psp2000 ..im using the method mentioned above..ive decrypted naruto akatsuke rising , Gran Turismo USA and some other games.(forgot the names too many )..well only once i failed . using psp 2000 is it ok to upgrade to upgrade my cfw 5.000 m33 to 5.50 GEN D?
Yep. It’s actually a lot better to upgrade to GEN-D rather than decrypt games manually.
hey can i upgrade from 5.50 MHU to 5.50 Gen D ??? if ..then how??????
i have motostorm i did as shown in the psge but when i start the game it shows
“this game could not be started”

uhm..ayaw madecrypt nung disgaea 2 ko..stuck ako sa step 8..di raw madecrypt..tulong naman
Anong firmware gaming mo?
Switch ka na lang sa 5.50 GEN-D2 or 5.03 GEN-B para di ka na dadaan sa decrypting stage.
sylv3rblade gud morning,
whew i do have this question, im trying to dycrypte the assasins creed bloodlines so that it would work on my psp model 2006 series 2000 with partial hack, version 5.03 mhu with cfwenabler 3.60 by xenogears and becus25,

Hey im wondering can i go from 5.00 m33-5 to this version (Gen D) becuz i really wanna play Little Big Planet. Im wondering is it safe so it dont break my psp and is Yugioh Tag Force 4 patched? and can i convert back to m33-5 if i feel like it?
5.50 GEN-D is very stable and upgrading is safe (just don’t experiment, read the instructions carefully). And yes, you can still downgrade your PSP using the Hellcat’s recovery tool or something similar.
Thanks sylv3rblade :]
Real quick question, im stuck on the part about the patching. i dont kno witch eboot to patch. it keeps saying file has not been patch. what do i do

Is Jak and Daxter working only in 5.50 CFW?
Please help because whenever I start the game it says “The game could not be started (80020148)”
Help Please Thanks!
Hi…
I read the tutorial above & one of the prerequisite is to have these CFW (5.50 GEN-A, 5.50 GEN-B, 5.50 MHU, 5.03 GEN-A, 5.03 MHU and 5.00 M33)
It does not mention CFW Enabler
My PSP mobo version is T-088 V3 so it is only partially hackable
That’s y I used CFW Enabler to play CSO/ISO games
Can I use this method in my PSP to decrypt the game files?
Thanks in advance
5.03 MHU IS CFWEnabler.
salamat bro its help me a lot.
Thanks a lot for the info mate
Coz inside the system after enable CFW Enabler it stated as 5.03 M33-6
Neway…I did find another way (from Atmaexplorer that I didnt notice before) by installing Gen-B on Chick HEN R2 to play latest ISO/CSO games 🙂
The creators of CFWE actually changed the version from 5.03 M33-6 to 5.03 MHU after several version of their firmware (I forgot which one started the 5.03 MHU version though)
I got a Persona orginal UMD that require 5.55. How do i play the UMD on my psp with cfw? (Psp slim with 5.50 gen-B) This method is for downloaded version of persona?
Hi i have tried to do this with F 1 2009 and eboot pathcer does not want to patch the file can anybody help, i’m running m33-6
Hey Chazz try to upgrade to CFW 5.50 Gen-D2, i can play persona without going through all this with gen-d2.
can I install 5.03 GENA and B after I had instaledl CFWenabler 3.6 MHU
thanks 🙂
not working please helpgame encryptor says cannot open file corrupted i have v5.55
The decrpyter will only work on PSPs with CFW.
ok this is what ive been trying to figure out….Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu Portable 4…..tried the Eboot….doesnt go past the first loading screen…a message comes up with a loading screen and BAM blackscreen` any help? im in japan and its a little hard to find information. oh and the dl was a cso….am i fucked because i dont have the original ISO?
I just upgraded to 5.50 GEN-D3 and my persona still doesnt work. Is it okay to proceed with the decryption using this firmware?
Hmm that’s weird. Yep you can proceed to decrypt it.
I tried and it won’t work, I jst downgraded back to GEN-B and the decrypter still wont work, it says “unknow blah blah with a :(” LOL. The PSP is still safe and sound though.
tested with gta chinatown wars and metalslug x so far, version 5.0 m33-6,
( i skipped the eboot patcher part though, just merged the iso with decrypted eboot )
thanks for the article !
i have a psp 1002 with 5.00m33-6.
i tried doing this with silent hill: shattered memories but when i tried to patch it,
it says it was not successfully patched
PLEASE help

and i am having cfw 5.00m33-6
That happens with games that have already been decrypted. Either upgrade or find an untouched ISO.
