Now that 3.60M33 has been released for the PSP Slim, lots of people probably can't wait to get started on customizing their PSP Slim to look just like their old PSP.
STOP!
Before you end up bricking your PSP Slim, here's some information to get you started on PSP Slim XMB theme customization.
Most importantly, DO NOT flash anything to your Slim's flash! Sony has put some new protection in their firmware that might cause you to brick your PSP Slim if you flash any resource files to it. The way we are going to put custom themes on your Slim is via CXMB. However, don't expect fantastic looking themes like AppleCor, as there is currently no support for prx files until they are decrypted.
With that, let's get started on installing custom themes for the PSP Slim. Note that the custom XMB is going to be quite limited. You'll see what I mean soon.
Files you'll need
Upgrade RCO for 3.60M33
CXMB v2.4
And of course, your PSP Slim.
1. Get your favourite theme and copy out all the RCO files.
2. Extract the files from "Upgrade RCO for 3.60M33" into a folder, let's call the folder "UpgradeRCO".
3. Place the RCO files into the UpgradeRCO folder.
4. Run upgrade.bat to update all the RCOs to 3.60.
5. Install CXMB by placing cxmb.prx into the seplugins folder and adding the line "ms0:\seplugins\cxmb.prx" to your VSH.TXT file.
6. Copy the updated RCOs to ms0:/cxmb/vsh/resource.
7. Enter recovery menu (switch on your PSP and hold R) and enable cxmb.prx in the plugin menu.
8. Your custom theme should be working!
