Files are exactly the same whether you download with the PSP or directly from the webpage.

It downloads to: /PSP/GAME/UPDATE/EBOOT.PBP

If you move it to /PSP/GAME/TEST/EBOOT.PBP, it will run it, then drop back to the main browser right away. It looks like it expects and checks that it was run from the correct directory.

Does it give the opportunity to reset to default firmware?

I'd like to be able to keep my options open in case a homebrew toehold is found in the first-gen firmware, but I probably won't have the patience to hold out. :)

As my replacement PSP has yet to arrive (but should be here soon), and I picked up a bunch of fresh new games today... I'm going to wait for someone else to actually run it before I do. :)

It changes more than it lists...

Did the PSP logo splash screen on startup fade out before when a game was about to boot? I think that is new.

Movie icons are no longer showing on my PSP, only the generic video icon.

Photos seem to have changed icon-wise as well.

Anything else anyone notice?

link works now. that's the icon of the update file when you browse the memory stick.

i haven't updated mine yet - it wouldn't let me (even though i was using the ac adapter). it kept prompting me that the battery was too low and it needed to be charged before running the update.

does it still crash with that jpeg?

I've updated. (appears as 1.50 under system information.)

i still have the movie icons that I had before - no change there unless i'm misreading what was posted before.

interestingly, that jpeg problem has been fixed. it no longer crashes when accessing the display icon from the menu.

the movie icons that disappeared - were they icons for a patched video file? the only video i have is a 4:3 anime that wasn't patched; the icon is a picture of the manga logo from the beginning of the movie.

point me to a link with some patched videos and i'll try it out.

Code: Select all

g4cube&#58;~ root# ./unpack-pbp EBOOT.PBP 
&#91;0&#93; 738590720 bytes | PARAM.SFO

I have a sneaky feeling that Oopo's code is not taking endianness into consideration. Looks like you are using a Mac, whilst the most common platform people are using for dev is x86.

As far as I can tell, the header.offset field is an integer quantity, and it will be treated differently on Mac platforms if the code was made for x86. The PSP is little endian, and so is x86.

Although, both Oopo and I run Macs, and many others are new mac owners, so hopefully we can get more endian-neutral tools written. ;)

Take a look at my code for parsing the savedata files which attempts to handle endianness. There are many different ways to skin that cat.

yea i jump on my mac to get work done... windows for everything not-productive...(games etc)

i broke em out already by hand, just didnt know if anyone else was gettign that error with oopo's code. looks like it should work.. but again like you said.. endianness ( i had to write that one down btw... right up there with endian-ish) :P

With all of the little tools we've been using to hack with, maybe a CVS repository would be a good idea? That way we wouldn't have three different versions of the same tool which do different things :)

I can contribute a small server at home (Tokyo has FTTH, so bandwidth is a non-issue :P ), if anyone thinks it's a good idea...?

Couldn't it be possible that this new firmware 'patches' some security holes? So that if you put this one on your psp, security is even better? This would suck because you cant switch back to the original firmware...

Btw, is there any other way to update a psp then through WAN? (by dloading the file from the link in the first post and putting it in de psp/game/update folder on the memstick?)
