Altho these firmwares have been used by many people (including myself) many times without incident there is a chance you could permanently brick your psp. always have a fully charged battery that has no chance of disconnecting and a charger in and swicthed on before any flash. by changing the flash on your psp you could brick and accept the risk by exectuting the files. the only person responcible for your psp is you!

3.40 oe-a

Changes in 3.40 OE-A:

* Updated from 3.30 firmware to 3.40
* Security patch: Fixed a bug that has been in all 3.XX OE, that caused random data to be written to a location in lcdc.prx or (in worst case) emc_sm.prx ram space.
* Autboot that is missing since 3.03 OE-C has been reimplemented.
* Improvements in the flasher. It will now generate also the flash1 directories, and it will check that the dxar is the correct for this update, so no more bricks by accidentally using other DATA.DXAR.

Changes in 3.10 OE-A:

- 4th level of brightness (aka battery eater) can now be selected also without ac adaptor.

- Changes in hen core:

* Static user elf's can now be executed in the 3.10 kernel. (this includes snes user version
between other programs)

* Tyranid's patch (added in 3.03 OE-C) consequences was not explained very well in the changelog of 3.03 OE-C:

- For programmers: it allows kernel modules to have user imports, making kernel programming
in 3.03/3.10 less strict.

- For users: plugins and applications that worked in 2.71 SE, but not in OE, *may* now work in 3.03OE-C
and 3.10 OE-A.
