Oh also nice! i wana try it out but dont wana brick! :(

Works like a champ! Now my iR Shell XMB works correclty. Thanks for this. I hope it will be updated to work with iR Shell because I love the ‘no autoload’ UMD and hid corrupt icons options.

Thanks again,
TM

can someone plz tell me what exactly this does, thanx

Here’s a proper explanation for the two files supplied in the zip.

- 1.5_POC_Unflasher.zip -
This file is meant to completely remove the P.O.C Custom Firmware. You just simply run the program from the XMB(as you would any other application) and it removes the custom firmware and restores your firmware back to its original 1.5 state.

- Flash_the_recovery.elf.zip -
This file is meant to just ‘reflash’ the recovery.elf(the recovery console) which the custom firmware originally installed. This new reflashed recovery.elf will add a ‘remove P.O.C Custom Firmware’ option to your recovery console. That way, if you ever want to uninstall it, you just go to your recovery console(by holding down R) and you’ll have the option of uninstalling the firmware.

I hope that clears up some questions. If you need any more info, everything you need should be in the forum release thread. You can find the link on the front page post.

Thanks

Dang can never get 1st
whatev
cool

thanks, slasher :)

yeah this is really needed and all but why’d anybody wanna unflash it? hehe i dont know any downsides to it but if a newer version came out or something else then u could use this to change it or something.

i got a rash on my leg i think its poison oak or sumac it wont stop itching ill post pictures inj the forums

woot 1th comment oh yah umm good work slasher and D-A for making it rebootable because now a lot more people will use it

Does anyone know if this works with 2.71?

why wuld this work for 2.71? thats the dumbest question ive ever herd, its to undo anything you did with custom firmware POC, which only works on 1.50, so y wuld u someone who hasnt used the new Custom Firmware POC use this? like do u ppl just not read wut the downloads do?

i wouldn’t fuck with this. it looks way complicated

NO ITS FOR PPL WHO USED CUSTOM FIRMWARE PROGRAM WHICH IS ONLY OUT FOR 1.50s. CHRIST

aaa, dang dude chill out. Though i have a 2.71, its gonna be awhile till a downgrade is gonna happen. so if any new updates comes up with a firmware changer im gonna ask if it works with a 2.71.

well before u ask u should read it

i did read it. understanding this stuff can be a bit challenging.

um well it is talking about P.O.C. Custom Firmware and if u click on the Dark_AleX proof-of-concept firmware link then it would tell you for what firmware it is

do i need this if i installed devhook 0.44?

No it is not for DHv44.It is if you installed Dark_AleX proof-of-concept firmware

i knew it… i knew it…. i said it befor and ill say it again dark alex will bring custom firmware to reallity… mod chip…. ha! what a joke! all u suckers that bought that worthless pice of shit should give ur selfs a pat on the back

the mod chip aint worthless why do you think we have been getting all this good since it came out the devs dont car about bricking there psp anymore

how many times do you rekon he bricked his psp making the 2.5 and 2.6 downgrader then just used the chip to repair it

maby in the futere the psp is eable, the modchip flasher , orginaly for the modchip

Darn it.. all these updates is making me addicted to psp-hacks.com

great work! too all the people involved

so does that means it works for 2.6 im confused can some body please explain any better

were can i upgrade to a 1.50 or wat game can

Dear Noobs,

Why don’t you read up on things before asking stupid questions. Not only will you learn about what you want to know but you’ll probably find out a whole lot more. Another bonus is that you’ll probably also learn how to spell all at the same time…

Give it a try, what have you got to lose?

Yours truly,
Uncle Bob

P.S. Thanks to all the developers out there making all this fly homebrew!

true true… the modchip may be useful for the devs… i personaly dont know if they are using it or not…but what i ment is it was pointless for regualr joes like use to buy one… i still dont know of anyone that installed one… but ill tell you.. i solder for fun… but i wont be risking my little black 1.5 wonder to put that dam chip on it . the devs where and will get a kick ass custom firmware wokrin soooon. thanks again guys

I don’t see how a modchip can unbrick your PSP.
Yes you can boot from the other firmware but how can you repair the ‘bricked’ firmware?
Basically it may give you a second chance but I can’t see how it makes it safer…!

OK ALL YOU 2.7X PPL, NO HOMEBREW WILL WORK ON UR PSP UNTIL THERE IS AN EXPLOIT FOUND (SUCH AS THE K-XPLOIT FOR 1.50, TIFF EXPLOIT FOR 2.00, AND THE GTA LOAD FOR 2.00-2.60). UNTIL THEN JUST LOOK AT THE HEADLINE FOR 2.7X CRACKED

ok ok most of you all need to understand one thing…this new homebrew that Dark Alex is making is a HUGE and I mean HUGE step towards completely unlocking everything that the PSP is capable of if we can customize our own firmware than that means we can possibly load any type of program we want onto it, we won’t just have ported programs that are lesser versions, we can possibly rip any type of working programs for computers and other hardwares and use them on the PSP also we won’t have any type of hold backs on things like FW requirements because we can customize our own FW to play any version UMD and ISOS we wan’t as well as use any homebrew we want to this means that we will have COMPLETE and TOTAL control over a device that Sony so foolishly made so easily crackable I’ve said it before and I will gladly say it again, Sony had NO idea what kind of ruckus they were going to cause when they got the idea of making this thing, but thankful for us they made it so darn powerful, and who knows possibly we could eventually make the PSP into something better than just a Videogame/Media player it’s almost endless after we can make our own FW for it.

P.S. to Dark Alex- If you get this thing working I have to give you standing ovation but also a warning…stay low because Sony will deffinitaly get pissed and if it comes down to it everyone buy some extra PSP’s if you’ve got the money cuz think they might have to completely change the whole PSP and Operating systems and possibly make the PSP into JUST a video game and media player so keep an eye out everyone

P.P.S- lol i wish i could get this posted on the front page of PSP-Hacks as an update or something its really good lol

You could email Greg Atomsk to see if he can, this site hasn’t been updated since a long time. Anyways, great lenghts Dark Alex! From Dax Loader to custom firmware, man, you are the bomb!

p.s. You know what would be cool? Using a converter from B to A and connecting the psp to a ddr mat for use with PSP Revolution. That would be awsome. Furthermore, custom firmware can lead to the use of the PSP Eyetoy and the GPS. These products will require firmware updates, but if theres a custom firmware unlocking the posibilities than that would rock.

p.p.s. Anybody know what happend the N64 emulator? I still long for the day that mario 64 is on my psp at full speed and sound. ZX-81? Do you mind working on one other emulator?
