most games will now work but if you will still need 2 programs called UMDgen4 and Yoshihiro's Decrypter V2 and these will change the eboots on how the games load up...see link (How to use Yoshihiro's decrypter to play 5.55 / 6.0 psp games | Free PSP Game dowloads iso cso psx all full no trial )
follow these instructions and you will be away with the new GT, FIFA etc and future releases (you are the man Yoshihiro)

[dazzle555]

just to say file corrupt , didn't work

[Kijoki]

Put the update in game folder and also it will not affect your games in any way. Put the 550.pbp on root.

The process is actually very simple - i did it with youtube holding my hand!

Upgrade to Gen D worked (I had to put EBOOT into GAME\UPDATE, not just into GAME).

Gen D2 though says corrupted data rather than showing the file name on the PSP.

Is there a different process for this?

Thanks

Downloaded D2 from a different site which seems to work:

Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-D2 Released | Download CFW 5.50 GEN-D2, PSP Hacks - PSP Slim Hacks

...but Gran Turismo will not work with it.

You just get the splashscreen and the message about auto saving and then just a black screen.

I tried from 3.8 but it did not work so i just went through the updates 4.1 to 5.0 to 5.50 gend and then it worked fine. Took about 1 hour to suss out at the first attempt, but plays all the games i've tried.
