PSP v2.0 Hello World!

greg | September 24, 2005

Update: And here’s the source code!


toc2rta free development network have done it again - one step closer to full homebrew on the 2.0!

I was just sent this binary from toc2rta.

Pure binary loader.

* it’s loaded at 0×08810000
* it’s max 64 kB
* it’s pure binary MIPS code
* you have to use syscalls and not NIDs
* it runs in user space!
* it’s called h.bin (Hello world) in the root of the MemoryStick

Set the frame_buffer.png as background like before and Place the new overflow.tif in the photos dir and the h.bin on the memory stick. It loads ms0:/h.bin

Join us on irc.toc2rta.com

Download ‘Hello World’ for v2.0

So mad props to toc2rta for this - looking forward to what the future brings!

No, the one I posted about simply turned your screen blue.

3. put overflow.tif into photos
4. put h.bin into psp root
5. got to photos on psp
6. “ooh” at the flickering hello world

psp root is on the memory card in “my computer”, not in any folders on the card, just straight into it. h.bin is included in the download rar file on the homepage.

Comment by Joo
2005-09-24 17:19:07

Well did it and it works. Is this just to show that homebrew can be done? Mine froze when I clicked on the tif file but doesn’t freeze if don’t click it. But after leaving the photos section and going back it froze again. This is normal right?

To #8
Gary, you shoudl get on the forums man! Also, yea, I just figured it out and did it and tis pretty cool! I edited the BIN file and put “Welcome to the beginning to hacking 2.0″ instead of the etxt that was already there, and it worked as expected. Thsi is great too! I found out that if u clcik on the web browser, the PSP wont completely freeze, but it will sit there unable to loaod the browser!

Wow! In just 2 days we have this already! I can wait to see soemone make this load up an animation in the background! ZTHIS IS AWESOME!!! HOMEBREW 4EVER!!!

i belave the upgrade is on this site but i wouln’t upgrade from 1.50 to 2.0 because you don’t know if emu’s andstuff are gonna come out on this and if they will be as good i mean you would have to change the background every time you wanna use a different app and add and delete pics and stuff you don’t have to do that on 1.50.

Of course homebrew will be made for this, its not as hard as you think. soon apps/gamez will be out for this…

2005-09-24 19:12:44

89 i agree but won’t you have to go though the process of changing pitures ever time you want to play different homebrew apps thats why 1.00 and 1.5 are the best for homebrew no need for any of that stuff

 
Comment by vze4z7nx
2005-09-24 19:29:58

OK HERE ARE THE DIRECTIONS FOR RUNNING Hello World:

1) Download Hello World from psp-hacks.com
2) If you don’t have WinRar, go to google and search for it and download it.
3) After you have downloaded Hello World, open WinRar and drag and drop frame_buffer.png into the Photo section on your PSP. (PSP>Photo>)
4) Disconnect your psp from your computer.
5) Go to the Photo section on your psp. Launch frame_buffer.png (or use the slideshow function to do this).
6) Connect your psp back to your computer.
7) Delete frame_buffer.png from your psp.
8) Open WinRar and drag and drop the overflow file to the photo section.
9) While WinRar is open and while your psp is connected to your computer, drag and drop h.bin from WinRar into the Root folder of your psp. (Root folder is the folder you click on when you open My Computer and when you click on the folder for the new storage device.)
9) Disconnect your psp from your computer.
10) Go to the Photo section on your psp and scroll all the way to the bottom. Select the black picture.
11) If a red bold shaded rectangle and some words appear under that, this program is working fine and your done. If this doesn’t appear, then re-read these directions.

** This program is ONLY proof that v. 2.0 has been hacked. It is not a program nor is it anything that you can use. It is clear evidence ONLY.

Directions For Deleting Hello World:

1) Connect your psp to your computer.
2) In the Root Directory or Folder, delete h.bin.
3) In the Photo section of your psp (PSP>Photo>) delete the overflow file.
4) Disconnect your psp from your computer.
5) Go to the photo section on your psp and everything should be working fine.

** In case your psp freezes or does not respond to your commands, hold the power switch on your psp up for 10 to 15 seconds untill your psp shuts off.

@90, SOmeone will make an auto loader for this exploit. Just you wait. I won’t upgrade b/c it will take a couple months to progress any where near wht the v. 1.5 is. Good work though. Hello world and then its gonna be Hello homebrew. I bet a downgrader will get released any how and no one will care LOL!!. These are some pretty exciting times.
