Hi people, I have some problems with psx emulation on my PSP.
I think it is due to GEN firmware but who knows (installed GEN version of POPS).

The first problem is with putting console to sleep while playing PSX games.
When I turn it back on I got HOME screen (The UMD/Homebrew one, not POPS one) and I cannot remove it (for example by pressing cancel/HOME) the only way is to quit game. Happens everytime i sleep conole.

The second error is even more strange. I think it happens with latest CWCheat (2.4) but unsure.
When I play Grandia and I save game - in game it looks perfect, when I reset (from HOME screen) it shows everything OK, I can load game and is working.
However when I use CWCheat and save game and quit to XMB and restart it - it did not saved !!!! LOL. I see the last save that was done before using CWCheat!
What's funny is that savegame (after CWCheat using) is working perfect until I go back to XMB. If I use exporting card (after saving, in CWCheat) before going back to XMB then I can import that save next time I start POPS and it is working fine .... thus I have to save through CWCheat because the built-in one is not working for me O_o O_o O_o

I don't know if this is a solution.

I have used same poploader for 5.00 M33 and not problem of kind of gen.

Last cwcheat version is 2.3.0...I haven't it. I have a very old version and all work perfectly. I can't test it on your game, because I haven't it...

well, I went back to 5.00 M33 and I test only one of the problems - UMD Home screen appearing after sleep is no more, here on M33-6 is working perfectly.

I will test cwcheat one later

EDIT: tested: both problem are fixed on 5.00 M33-6 so I see it as a GEN problem

Hey

I've been having issues similar to yours using popsloader.

I have a PSP Slim 2004, running CFW 5.03 GEN-C full through ChickHen R2, and i play some different psx games (FFIX, Legend of Mana, MGS Vr missions and so on).

Sometimes, when i start a psx game from the xmb, right before the red PS logo appears on the screen, my psp shows many options of pops to choose from. eg. 3.52, 3.71, 4.07 and 'original from flash'. i understand that these are versions of pops.

I assume that the menu showing up would be the normal thing to happen, but sometimes the game loads and the menu wont show up at all. i just wonder why

any ideas?

Ok, after many hours searching i found out that in my case i just have to hold R button while selecting the PSX game to load, and psp will ask again which version of pops i want to use.
