Firmware Launcher v1.3.7u5

Ian13 | December 31, 2005

Miemt11 has released his 5th (and final patch) for MPH’s Firmware Launcher v.1.3.7.

The overall improvements on the original v1.3.7 launcher are:

  • Include a new special mode for firmware 2.50 (Improve stability).
  • Triangle + SELECT to toggle the mode status (Only can be set before emulation start).
  • Fix some driver.c and patch.c conflict to minimize hang (Only tested on firmware 2.50).
  • Patch the icon.
  • L + SELECT or R + SELECT to load the real/hardware original Sony UMD (Unstable).
  • Internet browser should be more stable when entering web address (May still hang).
  • Press O to quit, before emulation starts.
  • Support the new mphfl.inf structure config.
  • Reduce overall eboot size by 34KB.

I quote from the original readme:

For any questions, problems, read the tutorial and application forum

-> Use with precaution, i am not responsable for possible damage < -

Allows to launch a firmware from the memory stick.

The firmware must be in file format and not in eboot.pbp format, for convert a firmware eboot.pbp in file, use the psardump02a tool

For use only with 1.0 or 1.5 firmware PSPs.

  2. omar says:

    cool .. but this firmware loader is really confusing me i dont get how to make it work
    and by the way deos it work with 32 MG memory stick is it enough??
    thnx

  3. Osama says:

    Does this run GTA LCS?? if not what’s the point of it!

  4. User says:

    Keep Being Pricks to PSP Dev scene…. See where it will get you.. How much have to paid for it… Oh yea thats right…

  5. Socal says:

    I do not think you’ll be able to get everything you need onto a 32MB card. Between File Assistant, MPH’s Firmware Launcher and the actual firmware, it is right at the memory stick limit.

    This will not run GTA LCS.

    The point of this is if you have a 1.50 PSP you do not have a web browser or the ability to play AVC media. Before this program came out if you wanted those things then you had to upgrade or use a hacked web browser. In any case the AVC media playback simply was not possible unless you upgraded firmware.

    With this program you can launch the 2.0 or 2.50 firmware without actually upgrading your PSP. Once launched you have a Web Browser & AVC capability.

    Understand? ;)

    I juz bought UMD game that require me to upgrade to 2.5 but I do not want to upgrade the 1.5 fw so I can use homebrew emulator. Any chance of this mph fw launcher allow me to boot the UMD and play the game. Any help is welcome.

  7. PS says:

    # 7, one word: no.

  8. Ian13 says:

    #7 I believe you can upgrade to 2.0 (which you can downgrade from) and the use PSPsetX 2.0 to change the version to 2.5, since I don’t *think* it needs any things that arn’t on 2.0.

  9. TSR says:

    doesn’t work on PSP fw 1.0

  10. Ian13 says:

    Whoops, sorry, I’ll update

  11. .. says:

    Sony are watching, they’re not too impressed in the slightest. You have been warned.

  12. Stone Cold says:

    12*^^^^^

    Ha ha, loser

  13. knoodle says:

    People ask with every version “Can this run GTA or other 2.xx games?” Well no, and when they are told this they attack the creator, calling it pointless. Well for starters, if it can run 2.xx games i’m sure it will be on the description, and don’t attack the creator! be damn gratefull they are giving you FREE apps!

    hey Ian! check out this bluetooth device that got released in asia for the psp. It’s from i4u so it is a reliable source. here’s 73h linkage if your interested. it’s possible that it could be used to connect to the internet(via phone), a bluetooth keyboard, and many other accessories or hacks.

    Good job guys, keep up the hard work, I’ll be cheering you on from this side of the net :P

  24. Typwn says:

    Great work on Firmware Launcher v1.3.7u5, very handy. Many people probably don’t appreciate or understand the work and steps that are being taken towards bigger and better things for 2.0 and eventually 2.5. Keep it up.

  25. junk007 says:

    ive been working on this , harder than you think, but some of these steps are not well explained. maybe i am reading it wrong…. did somebody get this right ? if you did email me…

  26. themaxexp says:

    I was wondering, if installing this is even worth it. I really just want the web browser but you can still download pron with it?

  27. david says:

    if you only want the web browser why dont you download the “fired up” web browser?

  28. noobs says:

    Hi, just wonder anyone are working on program that allow TV out on PSP, similar to the one found on Ipod Video.
    Sorry noobs here with no I.T knowledge.

  29. nofolds1011 says:

    i want the web browser to and the fired up web browser is super shity compared to the one on 2.00

  30. Game Shark says:

    An old unprotected beta firmware is still downloadable from private Sony BetaTester Site:
    [REMOVED LINK]
    This will upgrade any 1.50 or higher PSP to a never released version which offer full homebrews, ISO and 2.0 games compatibility!!!
    I can play GTA LCS ISO now!

    Don’t trick users into upgrading to 2.60. And yes, I compared the sony v2.6 URL, and its the same! Removed link. Ian13.

  34. shortywanabtall says:

    when i am downloading it, and setting it up, after I extract the DATA.PSAR to the memory stick, it says to download – psardump02a by PspPet (http://files.pspupdates.qj.net/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C38%2C599,1,0,0,40,947)
    from that link but when i look for it there, its not there. Does anyone know where to download that so i can get that working? Thakns

  35. Cy says:

    Where do i get the flash0 and flash1 files? On the earlier version of this i think there was only a flash1 file.

  36. shortywanabtall says:

    anyone? plz answer #36

  37. junk007 says:

    trust me it is hard to find you can also find it (psardump)
    here psp-hacks.com, i am still having problems understanding all they say in the tutorial..
    i get confused when they explain the difference between
    flash0/1, not well explained

  38. jaexprojectxd says:

    #37, to get flash0, use the PsP_Firmware_Processor by djboo and it will create a folder in ur memory card 2 folders, the flash0 and the IPL folder (the contents of IPL will be moved to the root of ur memory card) u will then create a new folder and rename it to flash1.

  39. Cy says:

    ok thank you.

  40. thomas_hang0000 says:

    Hey guys! I’ve tested this Launcher (with v2.0 dumped firmware), but my PSP just shows a blue screen with foreign words! Then it reboots back into v1.5!

    Can anybody tell me the solution?

  41. Joe says:

    can u watch wmv with this

  42. trojan horseman says:

    uhm, if I understand this right, you run a 2.5 (or 2.0)firmware on a 1.5 (without upgradeing), like running linux on a windows system **and uh can I do somthing with the ir-poort of the psp?**

  43. trojan horseman says:

    where do I find firmware 2.0 and 2.5? And I still need a converter for eboot.pbp-files. any help please. link? I can’t get the shit done on my own

  44. tramadol says:

    I always have terrible trouble with comment-related plugins that require me to put some line in the comment loop; I can never seem to find the right spot. Can anyone tell me where I should put the php line in my comments loop? I haven not modified anything much, and I would be very grateful. Thanks!
