i have 1.52 right now, and i dont know if i should update to this, or wait till it is officially released in NA. i mean, so i can update by using the NETWORK UPDATE function. If any1 tries this out, tell me if it is worth it. i would also like to know if it is faster than the Wipeout pure internet, and the other game one that was shown on this site

Believe me wait it out jason. I updated one of my PSPs which was a 1.5+ firmware so there was no point in not upgrading. It has an amazing browser, but I am certain the homebrew crews out there will strip it out and make it available for 1.0 and 1.5s. It’s better to wait, than update and find out that some very cool homebrew came out, ’cause then you can’t downgrade.

I’m going to do it. I think. The language will be english right? Doesnt the psp translate it and stuff. Also it shouldnt harm my Psp becuase it comes from their official site, right?

I had version 1.51 firmware but decided to update for the new features. The broweser is alot faster than the wipeout one and alows you to save downloads to the memory stick. Version 2.0 is good if you dont mind giving up hombre games

2005-07-27 10:07:04

so u did upgrade to 2.0, and it is very good? how fast is the internet, and is it worth it if i have a 1.52?

#10. there is always a work around, but if no one can get past the security features of future games then you should update.

Comment by Jordan
2005-07-27 10:37:01

Its pretty easy. With the usb cord, make a file under game reading upadte, and paste the eboot file ther. Then when you use your psp, look under game, and it’ll be there. Pretty sure i got it right, unless the file was bad, which i doubt

As of right now I downloaded the 2.0 update from the Offical PSP site & put it on my PSP. Everything so far has been in ENGLISH, so for those of you asking about that, yes everythings in english. The update just finished and I am about to check out the web browser and tell you guys how good it is.

————–

The browser is extremly easy to use. Its all Enlish and its really fast. The 2.0 Update is great and I would recommend people to update their PSPs.

It’s perfect, you would never know it wasn’t the US version. Everything is in English.
To install, DL the update
Connect your PSP via USB
Open the PSP/Games folder
Create a new folder called UPDATES (all caps)
put the file in there.
Run it fromt he game option.
Make sure you have the power cable plugged in and let it go

Comment by horton
2005-07-27 12:41:05

why is every one arguing people with 2.0 should be happy they have a browser that they will get bored of and can only use when their home or at a hotspot and 1.5 can look forward to the n64 and PSX emulators in the works, for all of those 2.0s who say that games are going to require 2.0 to play there’s already a loader that can get around this?

Oh and the PSPs been out for like 8 months in JAP and this is the first update that Is any good , so expect a bunch of 2.50s and 2.51security updates before Sony even considers doing anything else worthwhile!

For those of you asking if the update works on US PSPs.

The update WORKS for US BASED PSPS. I already installed it and everything works perfectly fine and is in all english. The browser is very fast and easy and the theme thing is pretty cool.

Anyone else in here
who’s signed up for the
“p-tv” service?

Haven’t “nuked” my psp
with the new firmware yet,
though I’m curious what
that new video codec quality
is like.

As for N64/PSX emulation,
I wouldn’t get my hopes up.
The PSP can barely play
SNES games at decent speed,
no matter how it’s tweaked.

For those of you who had 1.5 or below and updated… you people are truly idiots. First of all, you can get the Tenchi no mon browser. Secondly, ITS ONLY A BROWSER!! Who cares if it’s fancy? i doubt you’ll use it that much. I’m 99% sure that the browser on your PC is much better. So whats the point? I’d rather play my fave snes games than download a browser that can… browse. So you people who had 1.5 and upgraded, shame on you.

I had 1.52 on my psp so I did 2.0 upgrade why not.

 
Comment by Kumo
2005-07-27 13:49:03

Nothing wrong with updating if you have 1.51 or 1.52, I guess. But there’s also the possibility that they’ll crack those firmwares but not 2.0. But there’s also the possibilty that they’ll crack all of them. But if you have a 1.5 PSP, I recommend that you keep it that way.

Comment by Kumo
2005-07-27 13:54:36

Umm.. ever heard of IrDA? It’s a homebrew application that can send and receive files. You can also manage your files will File Assistant. So I don’t see what the big deal is. And besides, I don’t upgrade not just because of emus, but because of other homebrew like UMD Loaders and the Sony Remote Control. lol Once I fooled around with Sony TVs in a store. My friends and I were laughing our asses off. It’s things like that, that make me love homebrew.

why are so many people talking trash about people doing what they want with their psp ? if you don’t want to use it the way it is designed to be used, don’t. if you do, do. it’s not that hard to keep your mouth shut either way.

 
Comment by Aaron G
2005-07-27 14:20:40

2.0 sounds great…but the only thing it can offer that 1.5 cant is a new icon which is the internet.. other than that you can browse the internet with the Tenchi no Mon Stand Alone browser and change backgrounds with the pspersonalize… basicly if you have (1.50) DONT UPGRADE!!

this is fucking sweet I just went to launch.com to try to download some music, but before I could do It, a screen popped up and said I needed to have a more current browser, and It asked me If I wanted to download It, and I said yes and it actually let me download it son now I have netscape browser 8.0.3.1 I’m about to see what advantages this browser has over the other one.

Comment by Honkey
2005-07-27 14:29:01

This is the Honest Truth and i am being blunt with you all. All of you people posting messages on here telling people to (UPDATE TO 2.0 OMFG IT RULEZ!!!!! OLD GAMES SUCK) blah blah blah , the real reason some of you say this is because you are to stupid to get an EBOOT.pbp file running on your psp. Go ahead and flame me for saying that , but it’s the honest truth if you can’t read simple instructions on how to make the stuff run , then by all means YOU NEED TO UPDATE , the homebrew scene doesn’t need your stupidity.

The only difference that we will have on this site now is instead of seeing everyone type… (HAVE THEY CRACKED 1.51 & 1.52 YET????) all of you will now say (WHEN ARE THEY GONNA CRACK 2.0) and some of you downloaded this for a web browser and an added wallpaper feature? i don’t know about you guys but PSPersonalize works just fine for my backgrounds , and i am typing on a home computer with an internet browser already , so 2.0 is worthless unless you have 1.51 or 1.52 already. Or if you are 12 and wanna showoff to some friends at school or something.

AlWAYS REMEMBER: Respect the old games , for without the old none of you would be playing Halo right now. :)

If any of you want the UMD/ISO Loader that is supposed to be coming out soon …. then DO NOT UPDATE IT WILL NOT WORK!!

This’ll be what gets shipped with EU PSPs so i can see 2.0 having a lot of effort going into cracking it. =P

 
Comment by Shingo
2005-07-27 14:32:47

fyi #87 if you read on the official site it says that they had security updates in 2.0 that means you gotta wait for 1.51, 1.52, AND THEN 2.0 to be cracked, and i dunno if i should update, im too poor for 1 gb memory cards, hell im too poor for another 32 mb memory card so i should update, i woudlnt be able to play psx nor n64 too lil memory dont you think, and i got drugs to give me joy, not games, i love my lsd, and weed muahahahahhaa

Well if you jumped the gun when you bout you psp and updated to .51 or .52 then upgrade. This browser smokes the wipeout browser. This one has a mouse and the pages fit on you screen you don’t have to scroll all over. The speed is ok but for the most part if you have v.51 or .52 then update. ITS COOL

Connect your PSP to your PC via USB cable.
Go to the directory /PSP/GAME/ in your memory stick.
Create a sub-directory named “UPDATE� (MUST be uppercase)
Copy the downloaded EBOOT.PBP file into this directory (/PSP/GAME/UPDATE).
Disconnect the PSP from the PC
Go to “Game� -> “Memory Stick� on your PSP
Browse to the Update file and load it.

i have to say this update is pretty decent. i headed over to this park near my house where i get about ten wi-fi connections and this works alot better than the wipe out pure browser. i like this update.and besides this firmware will be hacked like all the others.

see now homebrew is fine and all but an emu is all that is really needed. the rest sony should give us anyway. i mean when do we get to use the ir port for more than one use?

It’s statements like #121, that make me glad I updated my 1.5 to 2.0, I mean homebrew is really nice, and I appreciate all the work that goes into it, but is there some homebrew out there that is so freaking awesome that it will leave those with 2.0 with update regrets?

As a response to comment #114, what you are saying isn’t completely true. If you are in the car, you can’t just start browsing, but you can play emus.

By updating to 2.0 you are missing out on a lot. For all you 2.0, I’m sure that you’ll soon stop using the browser. I thought that the wipeout pure browser was incredibly cool at first, but then I got bored of it. The same thing will happen with the 2.0 browser, you’ll just stop using it. One thing I haven’t stopped using is the snes emulator. That thing will last a million times longer than some mere browser. Sure you can get emus on the PC, but emus on the PSP allow you to just start playing regardless of your location (unless you’re on a roller coaster or something lol). So for all you v2.0 users, I hope you’re happy, because you have a browser, and that’s all you’re gonna get.

Man, I would rather have what Sony has to offer then a bunch of hackers. I mean come on. I do enjoy homebrews. Hell, I was even into them back in the early 90’s. i bought a Cybiko computer and had a blast with them. But the ones I have played for psp just havn’t been doing it for me. I mean…they’re old, junk games. Why not take advantage of what I multi million dollar companiy is creating for you instead of breaking the law. If homebrews are what your into then stay 1.0 and 1.5 but if you want some qaulity shit go to 2.0. Thats that. If you are so sad about loosing a lame ass nes game, then keep it. But I just dont see the big deal when you can go work for 6 hours and buy a state of the art game that will bring you 10 times more fun.

Bye the way, for all you law breaking kiddos out there after homebrew… it’s not bad. Everyone does it now or then. it’s the same as downloading music. But I promise. I promise…within 3 months someone will crack 2.0 and there will be homebrews.

Aaron,

How old are you? 12?
Let me explain something. Homebrew is cool, do not get me wrong. However you are attacking people based on your use of the PSP. I upgraded to 2.0 also. I love the browser, the background ability, sharing photos (my coworker and I tried and it works). I do not play homebrew because there is nothing out of any benefit to me. If I want to play 8 bit games I will bust out my old game systems from storage. Oh and by the way, have you used the browser yet? It is very fast. You can save files from the web too. I think you may change your mind if you tried it. But ultimately what I am trying to say is we all use the PSP for many different things. It has versatility to fit any personality for their needed functionality. Thanks.

First of all guys, its true, the European Versions of PSP will all be coming out with 2.0 software. i’m sorry to belittle anyone here, but There are hackers in Europe, mainly russia, that will rip right through this and crack 2.0 in a matter of hours i’m sure. Then again, maybe i’m wrong, but i’m almost certain i’m not. GO 2.0!!!!!

I installed the 2.0 update on my PSP and I can reallt honestly say it is a good update. The browser is fast and and clear to read, there’s a number of options for the browser for configuration purposes, I even downloaded a couple of wallpapers from this site via the PSP, it prompts which dir to download to (for pix and vids). As for homebrew, I don’t care because I updated b4 knowledge of homebrew. At the end of the day, I will enjoy the browser on it when my wife is hogging the PC. I encourage the download and applaude Sony for taking the this step in offering this much content in a free update and for killing the handheld console wars.

Everything works and is in english!

Anyone who is at 1.5.1 or 1.5.2 i would suggest you update, and people using 1.50 i would say stay for a little while. The added ability to choose a background picture and having a (really nice) web browser are both nice, but homebrews are fun as well.

The ONLY way gta or other future games will REQUIRE an update is if sony implemented api changes in 2.0 and the game requires it. If it simply does a firmware check without any api checks, you can just use one of the many umd run apps for 1.5/1.0 consoles. AFAIK the kernel is identical and they dont have plans on changing that, and thats all that matters for checks. Just load umd run, bypass the check, and play your game. Oh, and you can easily change your background on 1.5/1.0 so thats another reason not to switch.

The 2.0 update is worth it… how do I know? Bcuz I am on my PSP typing this comment. I have a custom background at 880 X 544 rez. I can also download anything on my PSP. I can’t run them but at least I can save them.

Even though we still don’t have java or flash support the overall update is awsome.

Since I have updated I have totally forgotten about HBapps.

I hope you all consider updating to 2.0!

IF YOU DON’T YOU’RE A MORON!

If you love dangerous and illegal HBapps fine… We don’t care!

164 (AceMilo):

Wow… do you realize that Playing those games on your PSP is Illegal? Did you know ROMS are illegal as well? thats why it says you can only hold each rom for 2 days. If you keep them for longer you will be charged for it… As soon as the “Internet Police” find out what you have been doing.

Oh and the web browser on the Wipeout Pure game is a beta Web browser that does’nt really support certain HTML, Flash, Javascript and Meta Tags like on this new update so to speak.

Why would anyone want to play Nesterj on their PSP anyways? I would rather play those High Quality Games rather than going back to 6 bit games… And I would rather be able to just start playing GTA LCS rather than waiting for the update to download… I didn’t know there was homebrew for PSP untill I saw the Forums… but even that was before Update 1.51… After My 256 MB Memory Stick got fried i said “FUCK HOMEBREW! (yes i was one of those unlucky people myself…) It cost’s to much!” (even though it was a free download… it still costed me 35 bux for the 256 Memory Stick…) So i updated to 1.51 then 1.52 and then i saw PSPersonalize… and PSPKick… 2 programs that would have been cool but I had already gotten something similar… as of now at least. Update 2.0 and Fruityloops on my computer (Music sampling/cuting/splicing/editing/transmognifying/MP3encoding software… PSP kick can do what ever… I’ll have FL Studio instead!

Loaders are Illegal as well… Maybe I should tell SONY that you support Pirating and get fined over $25,000.00 (this is just a guess… if you get caught for pirating Music it is a 25,000.00 fine as well for each song… Pirating is Illegal, wrong and dangerous!)

Also they have not tested the so called “Firmware Checker Bypasser” program yet and I have yet to see it work… Untill then FUCK HOMEBREW!
And if it has OH WELL! so what I don’t want to turn my PSP into another GameBoy! thats why i have one in the first place! TO PLAY GB GAMES! and pretty much every other system as well…

163 (Havok):

Its easy to make any picture as your wall paper… Just put any image into the folder named “PHOTO” and go onto your psp and view the Photo. Now hit Triangle and hit the left arrow once.. The option is called “Set as Wallpaper” and the option icon looks like an Arrow pointing to a white oval with little dots in it.

161 (AceMilo again…):

PSPersonalize can only implement BMP files at the size: 300X 170. thats really small… even text that small looks fuzzy on the PSP when you look at it… Now I have a picture (as stated before) at 880 X 544 and its in GIF format… looks crystal clear and has no fuzz at all…

Also.. added audio features so we can cram more music into our Memory Sticks…. I still have not seen any HBapp that allows you to play MP4 files… not even DivX Movies…

So do us all a favor and let people who want to update update… and let those who don’t want to update not update and have their PSP screwed over by an application that isn’t supposed to be run on the PSP and be sued from it by some crazy developer of the game he tried to load…

I think SONY is on the right track with these Updates… you just don’t want to give up 2d do you? Get in gear and GO! STOP STALLIN!

160: You do get pop ups but they display as a new page and you can choose wether or not to see them by Holding square and hitting L button or R button.

158: I agree…

157: I agree…

156: Not sure if it is true… but I can wait…

148: have fun playing 2d games and trying to get that emulator to work… I don’t think its going to happen but what ever…

137: MAN CALM DOWN! people make hacks for a reason but its not likely that everyone will like it… you make it sound like there is a hidden prie for being the best hacker out there for PSP… Make what you want and leave us in peace… if others are buggin you to crack something just tell them MAKE YOUR OWN DAMN CRACK! and they’ll finally understand all those little codes you go through just to make your PSP say WHATS UP! when you turn it on!

to everyone else with 1.5 … even 1.0:

Security updates are there for a reason…. That reason is to protect your PSP from well known Computer viruses being sent into your PSP Via USB Cable… you might just be that 1 out of 100 people who will get that virus that turns your PSP into a shiny new black virus machine…
Its not because homebrew is utterly illegal and dangerous… its because SONY wants to make sure their product stays safe and makes you happy… even if you can’t run homebrew… SO SHUT UP! STOP WHINING AND JUST KEEP YOUR NEGATIVE COMMENTS TO YOURSELF!

look this “Update” isn’t a hack… people come to these sites in search of the update and everyone on here is scarin them from updating… I say Update to Update and don’t update if you dont want to…

And I try to keep my self clean and away from trouble with authorities… So who are you to judge me? I don’t judge people because they have an opinion… I only give out facts aboutr peoples opinions… If you notice on there I did not judge anyone.. I gave out facts and important information that most people would “Overlook”

So don’t tell me who I am just because you are nothing but a “Bad Judger” most people on this site are cool smart and fun to hang around… but when an update comes around everyone seems to pick on the others… so I’m here to say STOP HATIN! did you see any hatred toward an individual in my post’s? NO! and i don’t think you ever will… “This is a site for hacks”

Oh yeah then whats an update doing on it if it isn’t a ‘hack’? its an update… something that the company put out for their users to keep them safe…. from outside bugs and viruses… Thats why no one has gotten to get their PSP running at an overlocked speed… and overclocking is dangerous too…

as i said before:

Let those who want to update update and those who do not want to update… DOn’t update and get their PSP’s screwed over by a Virus…. See you guys in the line of “Returns”

@169 You seriously must be joking. First of all I was talking about the tenchi browser, which from what I hear, is superior to the sony browser. Second, there are NO good psp games, period, they are all crap. I would MUCH rather play 8bit nes games that are 100000x more fun than the crappy psp games that are out. I feel sorry for anyone that updated a 1.5.

Oh, and before I forget, that comment you made about “security updates” and viruses was the FUNNIEST thing I ever read in my life! First of all, you honestly believe sony when they say that? Its THEIR security not yours. All they did was close exploitable bugs, nothing more. If you honestly thing a PC virus can infect your psp that runs on a COMPLETELY different system and can’t run exe, com, bat, or any other pc executable, than you are truly one of the most ignorant ppl I have ever come across in my life, and thats no bull. You bought right into sony’s bs. Do you know anything about computers and technology in general? It honestly sounds like you are talking out of your ass. I feel bad for you, I really do.

To everyone else reading this, please if you have 1.5, DO NOT UPGRADE! Homebrew/emulators/loaders unlock the true power of the psp and what it is really good for. Psp games SUCK, they are all rehashes and half assed games. Will there be good games? Sure, eventually, but right now there is no need. The only reason to upgrade would be if they implement api changes, which they haven’t, and any firmware checks can be bypassed easily. Unlike what 169 says, they have been tested and work 100%, don’t listen to him, he is an ignorant person who refuses to take the time to put 5 min of effort into running homebrew.

You should take your own advice and shut up with the negative comments about 1.5.

Wow.. the techni browser! OH MY GOD I WANT IT… wait a minute… no i don’t its all in japanese and can’t read anything when an option comes up… WOW you really believe that you cannot get a virus from your computer? think again… Call up the tech support line and ask them if it is possible to get a virus on the PSP… the answer is yes because the system runs on Bios and a virus can easily change anything in the system bios if there is an active connection between the computer and the PSP… the virus runs on the Computer and communicates the changes to the PSP via the USB cable… I am not as ignorant and judgemental as you are… look at yourself judgeing me… I’m probably older than you… you wouldn’t understand maturity untill you hit it…. and you’ll know when you have fully matured…

I put more than 5 minutes on home brew… I had 2 PSP’s at one time… 1 that i had Imported from Japan and one that I got for free from a website deal (USA version). I ran the PSP hello world and it fried my Memory stick. then after I bought a new memory Stick I tried another homebrew only to find it boring… SNES9 is boring! you can go ahead and play those 8 bit pieces of crap and support Nintendo on the PSP.

And you telling people to NOT UPGRADE just makes you look like more of an asshole… in fact you are probably one of those Modders yourself… wait you don’t even know what it takes to make a crack do you? its not easy and it can get painful. I liked homebrew for the long 10 minutes i had it before i said fuck it…

So stop being a stupid idiot and let the people decide instead of you getting in their face telling them not to update… its up to the user wether or not he wants to keep his PSP safe or not… OK!? we know your opinion and I am just one of the people who says “What ever… be an idiot for all i care… it doesnt effect me at all…”

Now grow a brain and turn off your computer so other people won’t have to get mad at you because they can’t update…

Quote 188 “You seriously must be joking. First of all I was talking about the tenchi browser, which from what I hear, is superior to the sony browser.”

Really you heard that? Where did you hear that?

B\c i have used them both and the tenchi browser doesnt come close!

2.0 browser is faster in everyway… The inital load, load times to websites even closing the browser is faster!

I make a list of options (if i miss anything fill it in plz)

-Open links in dif. tabs upto 3 Tabs.

-Save linked targets(to exactly where you want it on the MS)

-Save images(also you can edit the name of the file before saving it.)

-View Page info

-Display Certificate

-Refresh, Go Back, Go Forward, Home, Favorite, History Buttons

-Change display modes (Normal, Just Fit, Smart-Fit)

-Edit Text size and Encoding

-Cookies and Cache(you can also delete them)

-Mouse pointer :)

this is what i can think of off the top of my head! :p.

Guys I got my psp for my bday yesterday and I set it up and being the guy who worries I updated it to 1.5, then I read about all the homebrew (I was mainly interested in pspersonalize and overclocking;) I was like oh shit! but then I went and installed 2.0 and I personally love it…

 
Comment by Swedish_Dandy
2005-07-28 06:57:40

I gave up homebrew also,
and updated to 2.0.
No, it’s not that great,
but I figured the higher
quality video codec and
browser would come in handy.

More reasons?
Coz I got tired of thinking
about whether to do it or not.

(Maybe it was part of Sony’s
plan to kinda make ppl feel
“left out” unless they update,
- guess I fell for that ^^
didn’t wanna wait another
month until the white psp
comes out, though I’m still getting that one)

And, I figured the only
game I wanna buy in the next 6 months is Tokobots, besides
ppl are gonna be competing
like no tomorrow to hack this
firmware rev, and I believe
someone will.
Though it seems it’ll never
end. Sony’s just gonna
keep releasing new updates,
and UMD discs are probably gonna implement more security
also. Same thing with the PS3, and Xbox360. It’s over guys,
it’s time to realize we
gotta pay for stuff : /

Also agree with someone else in here that most psp games are “half-assed shit”, and not really worth the trouble pirating. Ridge Racers was
great, but what happened after that? Nothing.
Finally, I’m pissed about them
not porting certain Japanese
games like Dokodemo Issho.

I don’t know about flaming
ppl and stuff like that,
but each one should decide on
their own what they wanna do.
(Sorry for taking up a page
^^)

please dont flame me….a simple question. if i find a unencrypted wifi hotspot…with 80% or more signal strength can i connect to it? if so what should be network settings be? i havent been able to cennect to anything….also after i download and update can i delete the update file off the mem card?

 
Comment by Swedish_Dandy
2005-07-28 07:52:29

#207 unless that connection is wep/wap encrypted,
connecting should be quite easy ;)
the update file doesn’t have
to stay on the memory card
after you’re done with it,
coz everytime you do an update, it’s being stored in
the psp’s internal memory

I absolutely love the people who insult everyone who does anything not in accordance with the hacking community… I fully support the men and women who bring the wonderful hacks and homebrew to the masses, but if someone wants to update, who’s place is it to insult them for it? You can think it all you want, but just keep it to yourself. I don’t see anyone ripping the homebrewers, do you? I updated and am pleased with the changes. If you don’t make the HB, don’t bitch about it.

It was i ronic that I was on the bus. Then I pleaded with the driver to let me off. But he wouldn’t let me. I watched my cousin through the back window, and then a steam roller ran her over, and the steam roller was followed by a street sweeper. Let me just say this. That was by far much mor gorier then metal gear

Example: while 2.0 only has there gameboy color emulators which is the eairliest state. 1.0 and 1.5 will have the new and better emulators like PS2,G-cube, and Xbox.so whatever. do what you guys want. im jus letten you know that when 2.0 has emulators you’ll be braging about it and other people wil be saying “thats old man” while they have 1.0/1.5 and playin games like halo

187: “To everyone else reading this, please if you have 1.5, DO NOT UPGRADE! Homebrew/emulators/loaders unlock the true power of the psp and what it is really good for.”

Thats just halarious. Pick ANY official game and show me a homebrew that is more advanced and really shows its true power.

187: “I would MUCH rather play 8bit nes games that are 100000x more fun than the crappy psp games that are out.”

Why did you get a PSP in the first place if you dont like the games? Please dont tell me you paid all that money to play 8bit games???? Why not get a cheaper PDA that has 100000x more apps/emus, cheaper removable storage, better battery life, better hardware support and better developer support?

As much as a hassle as it will be trying to hack 2.0, at least the new firmware will FINALLY be compatible with Sony’s music service, Sony Connect, which is only logical. And the AAC compatibility is nice too if you use iTunes (minus the DRM protected tracks from the music store).

I don’t know why the

got a 10mbit connection,
it should be spitting up
the web-pages : /
Yeah, I tried all kinds of
settings, also got a 100%
wireless feed.

Should anyone be interested,
I also tried out the p-tv
service. That’s a load of
bogus compared to what
Sony showed off at the PS
meeting. The PSP doesn’t
accept direct downloads to
the stick. I gotta
connect the PSP by USB, then
the website lets me transfer
content, and it’s taking
waaay to long.

I was going to go into another long rant, but most ppl don’t wanna hear the truth so I’m not gonna bother. One thing I have to say is that you CANNOT get a pc virus on your psp, anyone with half a brain can tell you that, and anyone saying otherwise is severely misinformed. The last thing you need to worry about on your psp is a virus. Also, as far as homebrew being hard to implement, HA! Everything I have on my mem card worked first time and works every time, its all one click to set up. And, yes, I do have more fun playing nes, genesis, snes, etc than ANY psp game. When a psp game comes out I want to play, I will buy it, until then, there is no reason to play psp games. They are simply not fun.

Okay, lets get some things straight….(1)the web browser is fast and slow, depending onwhat kind of network, hardware, and configurations your running. (2)the browser does support downloading to the MS, most likely only content the PSP will support. (3)people seem to be forgetting that data transfers do not DL or UL in a constant stream, it’s sporadic. (4) lastly, whomever wants to continue running homebrew is their choice, i’ll still respect you in the morning. For the ones that want to update, same thing. My opinion, this update is a genius idea for a portable player that supports more content than NintendoDS, Gameboys, PDA’s, etc. Sony did not have to do this, remember, they CHOSE to do it. My choice, I’ll buy a laptop for running apps, more control that way. PSP is there to entertain me, that’s all.

@229
Can psp get viruses? YES it is possible and they will! Can cell phones get viruses
YES they can and HAVE, (but wait cell phones can’t run exe, com, bat, or any other pc executable either)! Search google you’ll find some shit…

@232
“1)the web browser is fast and slow, depending on what kind of network, hardware, and configurations your running. ”

VERy VERy TRUe

“(2)the browser does support downloading to the MS, most likely only content the PSP will support.”

What files you trying to download b\c everysingle file i’ve tried worked perfectly striaght to any spot on my Ms!

Hey guys, let me tell you. What was the PSP made for?
it was made to play 3D games and made to be hacked. while some choose to hack it, i chose to upgrade. The thing is that some people are smarter then the smart ones and thats why people are going to hack the version 2. what i did was upgrade from 1.5 to 2.0, since its like AOL 6.0 and AOL 9.0, and i want the best version which is 2.0.

i have updated my firmware to 2.0 and like it quite much, everything is still in the same language it always was, remember the psp is multi-lingual already (could set the language even to german on my japanese psp)

of course you will need some wireless connection to surf the web with the (rather sexy) browser…

I updated my 1.5 a couple of days ago. I like homebrew and emulators, but I tried the hacked game browser and it didn’t work well with most of the sites I visit. The 2.0 browser works fine, except it wont connect to Live Journal, does anyone else have the problem? Also, since it seems like PSP is turning out to be a mini computer does anyone know if it will be possible to get MSNIM, YIM, or AIM (and other apps)?

Ya know what i have taken some bites by friends of mine because i updated to 2.0, but the funny thing is i never played the homebrews, never even had an emulator on my computer… the reason i did update is because i noticed that the things they added to it(2.0) are pretty much the same things that you guys have been making on your own since 1.0 came out. I give you a lot of credit for being sucessful in your endevours and wish you luck at securing a flaw in 2.0

before i get flamed i need to say I am not against emulators i just own all the machines i have wanted to play the games for. end of story.

Question to those who have the update:

I see on some galleries that the page isn’t displayed fully on the PSP…how would you go about scrolling to the right, to get to the other side of the screen (or to whats left on the right side)? R & L buttons? That would be convienant and easy.

Hey, guys. This thing works. The only real problem is setting your DNS. This isnt really useful when you’re in the car. You can use it, and it works just fine, but once the new update after 2.0 comes out it is highly suggested you wait for it, so you wont corrupt anything from too much un-authorized stuff.

If EVERYONE updates to 2.0, the people behind homebrew will be forced to give up 1.5 – 1.52 development and work solely on 2.0 dev. then everyone can have 2.0 and be happy. why keep trying to crack the older versions? everyone wants 2.0, you know you do. push the HB guys to focus only on 2.0. It’s the only logical thing to do.

Im pretty sure people are already working on finding exploits on 2.0! Especialy when it launches in the UK(considering their psp comes w/2.0)….. No one has to convince anyone homebrew will find its way to the 2.0!

Being patient is the way : )

2.0 is amazing, yes a loved my Snes emulator for my 1.5v. But updating to 2.0 is worth it. Emulators and Homebrew games only last so long and then u get tired of them and realize why u dont have a Nintendo anymore, so update now, and if ur to scared wait until Aug.12 for the North American version, Peace.

MVP Baseball (black screen, PSP crashes)
World Tour Soccer (hangs at language selection)
ATV Offroad Fury
Armored Core
Tenchu (crashes)

taken from http://www.ps2nfo.com

Tested: WORKING is CONFIRMED Puzzle Bobble (JAP) Mercury (USA) work great on my 1.5, this will not work on 1.0 & 2.0 versions that i know of if anyone can confirm this works on 1.5 or 2.0 let us know on here.

How come all of these guys wrote on july 27. Also some of the fools downloaded the japanese version of the 2.0. Dont they know it viods their warenties. Also for one thing always wiat for the US version of an update cause sony tests the update in japan and finds any flaws and fixs them and makes a US version. So u should always wait for the US version of an update cause it will always better!

For the guy on number 324 u cant change how the psp works. It will always be like that and also u should wait for the US version of the update(that is if ur in USA)

For the guy325(pat)No they cant just make a homebrew avalaible on the version 2.0 cause it restrictes it on the update also it isn’t easy making a hombrew. With the new securtiy problems it makes it hard. But dont worry some smart guy will find a way

I’ve had it for a few months now and nothing has gone wrong. and if it does, didnt something just come out on this site that removes the updates? just do that and return it.

damn im pissed! 2.0 iz great n all but there are other ways to get picture backrounds and web browsers with 1.5, but homebrews dont work because of the release of dnab that prevents homebrews. Now that theres 2.0 editors have to create emultors or home brews that trick the psp ito thinking the program is a 2.0+ update so that it will load otherwise it say the the file is corrupt. this has been done recently by “toms tool’s” editors, but the game, tictac-toe, didnt load the game but it aknowlegde it so there is hope. SO instead of waiting for a downgrade, wait for psp firmware 2.0 hacks.

p.s. xbox emulation iz a waste of time!!!

i never realy cared for homebrews mainly because i dont feel like taking a chance of getting a fucked up download with a virus that damages the psp. But i might since most of you seem to not get any. and SONY RELEASE THE FUCKING 2.0 NOW. YOU GUYS ALWAYS WAIT SO FUCKING LONG. BY THEN I WILL PROBABLY HAVE PSP 2 OR PSP ADVANCED. WHO KNOWS SONY MIGHT BE BOUGHT BY MICROSOFT OR NINTENDO!!!! not that i hate Microsoft or Nintendo. because the DS is pretty good and the Xbox 360 Seems awesome since it will be able to play halo 2.

If sony hasn’t sent out 2.0 in america they probably havent even checked it! and if they have then they just like to see us sqirm! But it totally fixes every problem ive had with the psp like wire less connection problem and inconveineces like no web browsingand not being able to personalize it, it works perfect on my model psp-1001(american) with no problems and i think the programmers will put fixes and the psp hacks to work on 2.0 you just have to wait a little.

You can’t get the american version yet Frank, it is only Japanese right now and to download it it will be considered a hack

I read on the playstion.com forums that if you have a american psp and use Japanese FirmWare it is possible it will have longterm problems. thats why im waiting till the American version. The post was by a moderator.

You might. Because if it stops upgrading durrig the upgrade it can permanently mess it up.
Your psp wont know wether you have 1.5x or 2.0 causing it to do different things and frying the motherboard in the end.

You should just evaluate what the psp’s main function is for. For me personally its not the games. Its the ability to watch mp4 movies and go on the web so i updated it to 2.0. I have a nokia 6620 with a SNES emulator on it and it works fine so i dont need it on my psp. Also as everyone said the web browser on 2.0 is 10000000000000000000000x better then wipeout pure. Add a Steno CD311 and u get 40 gigs of movies u can put on your psp. YES THE STENO WORKS AS A 40gig HD DUMP. you still need a 1 gig memory stick tho. And as most of u guys who work are aware having a phone with a emulator is less likely to get u in trouble then having your psp out. The choice is entirely up you. Also
PSP-Hack.com has the US 2.0 upgrade. u need a mstick reader or u need to hook up your psp to your computer. They give u the option to download the update either from there server or sony’s japanese server, but im pretty sure its a US update. Last question tho, anyone know if we can update the browser? it says the browser is netscape 6.1 >.
