CyanogenPSP v6.1 - PSP/PSV [Final Release]

[Ix:Risor]

@Joel16; I think this homebrew's potential and worth has really been undervalued, this an amazing homebrew and is a priceless addition to the PlayStation Portable homebrew & hacking scene. If the homebrew scene was a industry, and I was a rich tycoon, I'd buy it off you in a heartbeat and would pay a hefty price for it. As it works seamlessly on the console, and has the quality to be a product of a high-tech and tremendously innovative software company.

I rarely get any support for this project on this site, but what you said is one the nicest things anyone's ever said about this project. Thanks so much for that

CyanogenPSP v5.3 Experimental Build 3 [20151116] is now available. I must say this is now surely the most stable version, and will probably be the last experimental build before the final release by the end of this year. If you do encounter any issues, please let me know before the final release!

Note to translators:
This is probably going to be the last experimental build before the final release. Please test this build to make sure your translation is on point. If there are any overlapping issues or grammatical errors, it will not be fixed later on after the final build.

Great release. As soon as that permanent patch comes out for 6.60 I'm going to get my PSP to automatically boot this, thus getting rid of my XMB (not completely though). @Joel16, you've done wonders with this homebrew and I meant every word.

[Joel16]

Thanks the final build will be released soon as this has been confirmed to be stable enough.

I want to Android's hidden object games to play on PSP. I don't understand how PSP can run windows 95 but not the simplest apk format game.

I bet this dream will come true as the second analog of ds3 some day.

Android is impossible on PSP, so you'll never get any apks to run. Even the earliest versions of Android would fail to run on a PSP. Those games can be ported over though, but that's all.

[Joel16]

Final version is now available for PSP PRO/ME CFW and PS Vita eCFW. It's been exactly 6 months since the last official release, so you can expect a huge change-log . If you encounter any critical issues, I'll be happy to provide hot-fixes.

Thanks, I'm still not sure if this works properly on Vita eCFW. I don't own a vita, so I can't try it but it should work. The only thing that wont work on the vita is the volume controls, brightness slider and the kernel buttons to trigger them. I had to disable those kernel modules to allow it to boot up on the vita according to an old tester.
