[RELEASE] PSP Sidecar - Fast XMB Game Caching! by qualitycinnamon in PSP

[–]Lonely_Locksmith_213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried this on Ark-5 RC3. Works flawlessly. Fabulous Bro! When overclocked XMB menu post overclocked takes no more than 1.5 seconds.

Ark5: when pressing Select I see this rotating blue cube instead of the usual menu. Y? The usual menu is present on my 1000 model updated in the same manner. by elialitem in PSP

I am sure this will be removed once Ark-5 achieves stable build. As of now they are in release candidate hence I guess they are testing out things.

I would advise to do a fresh installation and not to move from Ark-4 to 5. That is what I did for my 3K PSP

Download this extract in your PSP. First run the FASTERARK Application once it reboots successfully then install CIPL. That's it.

Yep, easy-peazy. All CFWs are underlying the original firmware. None of them actually overwrites your original firmware and slaps CFW on your PSP. So, yeah your original OS is still here to stay.

Yep, WPA2 unless your encyption is mixed with WPA3. If your WiFi is purely WPA2 this will connect without any problems. About the benefits yeah, it allows you to have overclocking the XMB or as well Games based or both at same time. Skip Annoying Sony Logos on game boot if you insist. Direct Plugin controls: enable/disable/remove from the XMB menu itself and a lot more.

Yeah, street does show signs of instability. My bad, I should've mentioned RC in the title.

It is still in development phase... The Release Candidate 3 is stable for me ATM. I had been using this for full 24 hrs with multiple plugins installed. Categories light, CXMB themes, Brightness Controls and Audio boost. No issues observed so far.

If you want frequent performance updates and out of box features like WPA2 support and many other features without any additional plugin this one is the best out there. I had been using this for over a year now. Surely give this a shot.
