UMD Emulator for FW2.60 v0.03 Released!
greg | August 7, 2006
For all those unfortunate TA-082 PSP owners out there left unable to downgrade, this is for you – boy, will you be happy!
Developer 0okm, who’s been responsible for many great PSP feats, has discovered a method to successfully emulate a UMD on FW 2.60 – regardless of PCB version. Yes, this means you’ll soon be able to load ISO images from your memory stick on firmware 2.60! You will however require the Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories [unpatched] UMD to utilize this loader as it works in conjunction with the GTA savegame exploit.
after eLoader(GTA) start
run “UMD Emulator for eLoader GTA”
than you can Open and Read file inside ISO bySceUID fd = sceIoOpen(”disc0:/xxx”, PSP_O_RDONLY, 0777);
sceIoLseek32(fd, offset, PSP_SEEK_SET);
sceIoRead(fd, buffer, size);
sceIoClose(fd);TODO :
LoadExec ISO’s BOOT.BIN bysceKernelLoadExec(”disc0:/PSP_GAME/SYSDIR/BOOT.BIN”, ¶m);

eLoader v0.9.7
Enjoy, and mad props to 0okm for this!

:-) good for people with TA-082….
have a nice day
martin05
now lets see one for 2.70
nice work, poor TA-082 :)
1.50 Rulez
lol? 2.70? why should you be to recompensed, that you were so stupid and graded up to 270 /2.71 ? :-P
nice work. but a little too late for most, but for the ones stuck with ta-082 awsome
Wow. thats all.
thats cool, u can load iso’s with a ta-082 PSP.
Ha, the only thing this helps me in is the less nubs askin if they can run a umdemu on 2.6. Cheers for that!
Awsome! Finally!
@idiot who upgraded to 2.70:
Y in god’s name wuld u want to run ISO’s on a 2.71, u can run evrygame in existence, so it doesn’t matter if u have and ISO that requires no update. Go and buy the physical game numb-nuts
Oh my…!!!!
You are a god!!!
Mabye he dosent want to buy the games DUH!!!
i do own “physical games”!
@ #10 I AGREE, piracy is wrecking the gaming industry, sooner or later we’ll most likely have to make our own games. It’s really a shame tools like devhook are misused albeit released for our benefit (preserving the psp’s laser life NOT PIRACY). I know games are getting alot more expensive these days and IMHO, it’s because of piracy…
dupree, shut up, i never said i was a pirate, nor did i say i didnt own any physical games.
hhmm please hack firmware 2.71 please :D
Oh shit nice… But I already have 1.5. I won’t upgrade cuz there is devhook and I dont wanna waste my money on that Piece of shit of gta umd.
Hurry up and make a fucking 2.71 downgrader.
I am not impressed at all.
And people should shut up about “dont be teh pirate cuz its not good”. Less than 5% of gamers are playing pirated games so just stfu, I,m not gonna cry for devs who are charging us $50 for a portable game that most of time sucks. Games on PSP arent good…only a few are.
Sweet!
Does it work on FW 2.5 too? Should I upgrade to FW 2.6 if I want to use this?
HAHAHA! I just got banned from PS2NFO for posting this shit on there. Those guys are a bunch of fucking assholes! They have eLoader blocked from their site. You can’t even type in eLoader because it blocks it out with a bunch of *’s.
this doesn’t work for me, whenever i load it on eloader it shows a black screen and goes back to the eloader screen
Woah fucking sweet :| Thats crazy, though i own one 1.5 its really fucking cool strange that it havent been discovered before :| Im happy for all the TA-082 owners :D:D:D!!
yo lk3322, this only works on 2.6 if you dont have a TA-082 PSP, then i would upgrade to 2.6 and downgrade to 1.5, its much bettter but if your stuck with a TA-082 psp then just use this ona 2.6 firmware.
It is a proof of concept!
yes, it’s proof-of-concept at the moment, hence the TODO list:
TODO :
LoadExec ISO’s BOOT.BIN by…
won’t be long I’m sure…
Do all the new games work whit this loader or only the old games?
When you are in the e-loader you must press start and then you will go back to the you psp main screen and then you can press on the emulator but it doesn’t work for me either
PROOF OF MOTHAFUCKING CONCEPT!!!
We have some smart hackers on our side ;)
i got a TA-082 with 2.6, can i downgrade it with this?
Where did you read ta=hat it is a dawngrader.(NO)
It is a loader for ISO game. Try it and see if it work. but you need GTA UMD and eloader
Anyone tested it yet? Does it work OK? Any problems with ISOs?
how do u use this where do u put the iso file
MAC SUCKS!
….Oh, we’re not on that topic anymore?
Sorry, I’m just jonesing to flame… I could say this sucks, but this is right nifty… I suppose I could flame those who haven’t downloaded yet…. I’M JUST A BIG TENNIS BALL SOAKED IN GASOLINE… AND I WANT…TO FLAME….. AHHHH
Cool,have fun Ta-082 users.
It doesn’t work for i have named my iso file umd.iso and then run eloader (yes i am on 2.60) selected the loader and just came up with a black screen and some writing saying something UMD emulator bla bla bla please has any1 had this to work?
does it work if dont have TA-082 ?? dont ask why i dont wanne downgrade…long storie
Anyone have a good testresult, or is this a hoax??
No positive feedback, from anyone??
Which backups were tested?
ME CURIOUS??????
NEHHHHH
WhitePSP FW1.5 — BlackPSP FW2.6
i have a 2.6 psp that i got repaired can i still uses the downgrader
eey you “dupree” guy,… i’ll bet that if sony made psp’s homebrew compatible that they would sell alot more games. for example : i have a 1.5 psp, and 6 original games. i want to use all the homebrew stuff (cause its fun to mess with :P ) lately i havent bought any original games anymore, because i know they need higher firmware, and i dont want to upgrade (i love homebrew shit) and i dont want to buy an original game and emulate firmware everytime to start it. in my opinion, its sony’s own damn fault.
WTF …HO!!!! MY GOD !!! i am so F*CKING tired of this …i was thinking a umd emulator working WITH OUT GTA and not AGAIN WITH ………….TIRED TO USE THIS GAME TO MAKE ANYTHING WORKING …EVEN THE DOWNGRADER NEED THIS GAME ………………….CAN THEY MAKE A ELOADER OR WHAT EVER THATS DONT NEED GTA? PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
ok, is this only a proof? or is it working? even as POC it gives hope to us poor bastards running games on TA-082, way to go 0okm and thanks for all the efforts
ok guys, this is only a proof of concept. This does not load isos yet, i repeat this DOES NOT load isos yet. It just shows that it can access the iso and that the actually iso loading is not far off, just be patient and we should hear about this again soon and as fully working, not just a proof of concept.
This isnt:
A 2.71 downgrader
Eloader free
Fully working software
It is just proof that ISOs may be able to be loaded from 2.60 sometime in the future. That’s all. So noobs, leave it alone
Yeah and people who steal should get their hands chopped off. I got my PSP stolen so piracy pays off my loss and anger.
it not working i doing some thing wrong where o you put msroot and PSP_GAME folder need help please
Ricky, cant you read? Leave it alone if you cant figure out simple folder structures
Aw… some of us are more interested in running homebrew, but it is definitely a step in the right direction.
can u just help a guy out come on please i would helped you
so this means that 2.60 users will not be handicapped by the 4gb memory card limit currently plaguing 1.5 users.
i wish all my 3 psp’s were 2.80 cuz theyre 1.5..but i dont know how to upgrade them..can someone help
WTF DOOGIE HOWSER!? Why the hell wud u wanna do that???!! At least only upgrade one or two of them! You need a 1.5. many people would kill for one!. To upgrade: either use the network update option on your psp or download the new firmware from: http://www.us.playstation.com/PSP/Support/SystemUpdate and follow the instructions
I hate myself I upgraded my psp for Loco Roco and I hate this fucking game!!!!! plz hack firmware 2.70!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s just another proof of concept again, but it is progress. I can see the loading screens from the iso being created, but of course I can’t play any of them yet.
Great work!
Keep it up.

now lets see if any psp get bricked ;)
you’re all stinky smelly geeks. i hate you geeks. no one cares.
any know if this runs ISO’s well??
grrr…. got the same problem. Loaded eloader and poof, black screen and then back to eloader menu! I even tried the other method, press start at eloader and back to main menu in psp, tried to load eloader from memorystick but got a error.
Is this a true working emulator?
general question…
just when did psps start shipping with the infamous ta-082 motherboard???
it feels so good to have a 1.5 psp :D!!!
with 132 iso’s ^-^!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ those would compalin about isoloaders and piracy :
please try to load an iso and play so : loading times (that plague the psp) problems is solved.
that’s really another experience, pro evolution soccer 5 as iso instead of original UMD (not to mention some wrestler title) now shines in the menus. that’s really enjoyable.
Same problem when it starts up just goes back to eloader menu
would someone who’s got it to work give me some tips , I’m sure it would help everyone here!
U jackasses this is a proof of concept… not a real working 1….
Well,thanks for the hackers to do lots wonderful things for our ta-082ers….
But , i should say it is still a long way to us to run iso
in the fw2.6 ( of course the FW2.5 brothers)
WHY??many and many people have the 082 mainboard of PSP,few and few guys get GTA….(THE OLD VERTAION OF GTA UMD,IT CAN RUNS IN FW2.0 PSP,not the new one…..that can do nothing at all to us)
so ……we just hope the great hackers has a way
to run iso without the gta in FW 2.6………..
Thanks Rohan U asshole
THIS ISN’T A WORKING UMD EMULATOR, ITS JUST PROVING ITS POSSIBLE AND CLOSE. WAIT A COUPLE DAYS AND A WORKING ONE WILL BE RELEASED
how can i turn my umd games into an iso so i can play straight from the memory stick?
Use Fastloader to dump your UMD games to ISO on your MS.
Ok I must say that a ton of you people here are complete idiots. All this talk about “fuck sony” and “yeah that’s what they get” is utterly retarded. You shouldn’t have bought a PSP if you can’t afford to buy the games. Don’t get pissed off at Sony for trying to stop homebrew on THEIR product. I’m pretty sure they could give a shit less about the legal homebrew being released but do you seriously think they would just ignore piracy? Sure running the iso’s off the memorystick is faster than the umd, but at what cost? Some do this legally but of course many do not and it’s those people to blame, not Sony.
And to you Doogie Howser, I must say your trolling skills are superb…. Unless you really are retarded.
FUCK YOU JUAN2320 hahaha we shouldnt have to spend 300$ on the system then 50$ a game sony should be reasonable with there prices. Then maybe there will be no need for pirating the games. Sony shouldnt have made there games so dam slow too.
Ok, Number 1 I was the one who posted that not Juan. Number 2 your logic is flawed. The price is reasonable and if you didn’t think it was reasonable then why buy the system in the first place? The reason the games are slow is not directly Sony’s fault. The developers ultimately determine the way they handle loads times and all other aspects of the game. That’s why some games take ages to load and others have little or no load times.
tank, it is your own fault for not buying the gta game,
arent you selfish, you didnt buy a copy of the gta when you had the chance to do so, also, wanting to get the umd loader,
do not push the hackers to do a better job, you try to make a eloader without gta…
Fuck Sony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
darn, a cant get it to work, it just goes back to eloader menu. i hope he releases a better version soon
wats pcb mean wen it says regardless of pcb version
ok simple question does this work or not?
WHY DIDNT THEY HAVE HTIS WHEN I HAD 2.6 HAHAHA I TRADED WITH A LIL KID CUZ HE HAD A 2.0 SO I HAVE HIS NOW, HAHAHAH VBUT NOW I HAVE A 1.5 SO I DONT NEED THIS, BUT HEY GOOD JOB ON THE EMULATOR, I BET ITS GOOD, ISO’S ON 2.6, BUT IM AGREEING WITH SOME, WHY WOULD U NEED TO GET ISO’S WHEN YOU CAN ALMOST PLAY EVERYGAME ON 2.6, EXCEPT FOR THE NEW ONES REQUIRING 2.71, I GUESS THATS PROLLY THE REASON, BUT HEY, GOOD JOB OVERALL
you can play the ones with 2.71 if u use devhook 0.46
wat does unpatch mean? can u just have the regular game?
Luckily, I mine’s at 2.6. There are a lot of people out there who did upgrade for the demos, even now there’s two new demos out if you uprgade to 2.8. Not that you should. Even then, the updates aren’t going to stop anytime soon. With PS3 on the way, chances are its gonna be a given that your going to have to update for new features and comapatability reasons. So it always gonna be sacrificing the latest features in exchange for ISO loading. (And yes as my name implies thats what I am. I buy games at my discretion, not yours. Besides why would someone comes to this site to download the file get mad at others for doing the same?) Instead of calling other people idoits for upgrading,you should a tleast try to help them out. Also we should be grateful that there are files like this around for those who did upgrade so they can do the same thing that you are.
By the way, great work 0okm. Really appreciate it. Keep on rockin’.

Hmm a super newbie PSP owner here.
Question: Is TA-082 is the same with IC1003?
I own a 24-hour psp (a brand new one) my sis bought it in Japan but she didn’t know about firmware so I told her to get the oldest unit in the shelve. But as soon as it arrives, I’m already thinking about downgrading so I asked a flasher to flash mine (I’m afraid to flash it by myself), and he told me that my unit is factory unit with IC1003. Please help.
Anyways, I know I’m in the wrong forum but I think this is a great idea to catch your attention :-)
