Boot Protector: Password Protect your PSP!
greg | November 18, 2006
Update: My bad, this only works with FW 1.50.
Sorry for the lack of updates; I’ve been playing PS3 for the last several hours and quite frankly there hasn’t been much released anyway. But this sparked my interest, and will serve a useful purpose for those who wish to prevent unauthorized access to their PSP — Boot Protector! This PRX comes from developer “Access_Denied” and when enabled/flashed you will be prompted to enter a password each time your PSP boots. It only works with firmware 1.50 — do not flash with any other FW!
This is a password program that locks your PSP when booting from a coldboot.
It uses Dark_Alex’s Custom firmware to run.
Everything else was coded by me.
*WARNING* This program writes to the flash of your PSP and has the potention to render it useless. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! The Folders “Custom Firmware Flasher” and “Password Program Flasher” can be deleted after installing once. However, you might want to keep the Config Flasher to flash the config file in the future. The new config.txt must be in the memory stick root.
-Access_Denied
The default password is noted in Readme.txt.
Download: Boot Protector
P.S. I challenge anyone to a game of Call of Duty 3 (for the PS3) — add me, GregCube. And you should check out ps3-hacks.com.

cool, too bad only works with SE though. did you guys check out Dark Alex’s interview on pspupdates. He says that a beta version of devhook for 2.80/2.81 is being tested but that there is no ISO support for it yet. cool.
Yeah/ If this was a 1.5 app too, it would be great! But a nice idea, especially if your PSP is your porno central ;)
Greg, lemme have your PS3 so you can get back to work an whatnot without it bothering you an taking up all your time. I’d be glad to take on that burden for you :)
hahaha!
password program made by Access Denied.
the name fits perfectly!
XBOX360 Versions Rules, No Question,
all the release Games are bugged to hell to get them out for Launch day……..
No Contest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW…………Thanks for the Update “Access Denied”
It doesn’t work,
It says it’s corrupted on the MS :-(
I’m using SE-B”
#6 is correct, i put this in both GAME150 and GAME folders in my 2.71 SE-B Custom Firmware PSP, it always says Corrupt. Maybe it is just for 2.71 SE and won’t work with the “B” release. Someone please work on this program and get it working, i have been waiting on a PSP Password program already.
this shit is old….
Hmm…maybe we have to edit the config file? I’m not sure…so I will wait for a real README!
this give me corrupted icons too=[
umm this isn’t for 2.71SE it is for 1.5 only.
“…It only works with Dark_AleX’s 2.71 SE firmware — do not flash with any other custom FW!…”
Go ahead and use it on 1.5 for those (#11) that didn’t read it and ran a high risk of bricking
QJ says that it is for 1.50 only…
nah also corrupted icons for meh :/

Please we all know you are playing on your ps3 but dont post shit that isnt right… Sorry to say it this way.
u stupid bitches want dem n00bz to brick their PSPs?!
RTFM, 1.5 only… psphack suxx…
Why does the front-page post say for Version 2.71 SE and then people in here say you must have 1.5. The post needs to be edited or a the program needs to be re-released with a better ReadMe file (the one in this download doesn’t say *ANYTHING* about what firmware it’s for).
…”there is no way to change the password. I have left this out for pretty good reason. But if there is enough feedback about it, I will add it in. The universal password is 8314. Note that this REQUIRES 1.5 to get the full functionality. If you have a custom firmware, you MUST remove it as this program requires a certain custom firmware…”

This came from http://forums.qj.net/f-psp-development-forum-11/t-releasepspassword-protect-78778.html which is the URL that is given in the description that PSP-hacks.com gave. PSP Hacks needs to get this fixed!!! This program *SUCKS!* because of the Universal password and you can’t change the password!! What if you are traveling and forget the password and can’t get on the internet because you check your email and view PSP-hacks.com on the PSP but you can’t use the PSP b/c you installed this $*#@’ed up program to keep prying eyes from your PSP!? The program might as well boot up and say “Hey! The password is 8314 and my porn can be found in the Photo and Video section of the XMB!” Please, update this program, set it to where 8314 is the “boot password” and require you to change it after the first boot or make it to where it requires you to set a password on the first run!
Maybe you should all stop complaining, and stash your frigging porno somewhere else, or better yet, just delete it, and get a girlfriend. Ok, so they made ONE mistake. PSP Hacks has been giving us good information since the PSP first came out, so DEAL WITH IT.
yeah i agree with the guy above me,
FUCK psp-hacks
jk
this is cool for psp ima use this i have 1.5 seb 3 2.71 but hey the guy said this, I’ve been playing PS3 for the last several hours and quite frankly there hasn’t been much released, and i say well damn dude count your self lucky man im in the uk we have to wait until march that still rubs it in my face ahhhhhhhh! lol lol
unless you are in the uk and had one imported? lol
@12
Your the one that read it wrong dumbass
#12 um yeah 1.5 only look into - source: Access_Denied & qj link ..kthx
so What’s the real version to install this? a 1.5 or 2.71 seb? damn it
@24: my comment was posted BEFORE PSP-hacks.com updated and said 1.5 only, dumbass. I read what PSP-hacks.com said on their page, I shouldn’t have to go to another page to read info on a program that I download here especially when PSP-hacks.com is right on their info 99%. But, unlike alot of people, at least I admitted to being wrong in my post regarding this program as seen in comment #19. I’m only human, I make mistakes, just like some of the people on here, the difference is, I admit to making mistakes
greg’s been too busy with his ps3 eh? maybe once the novelty wheres down a little we’ll get some fresh news
read what wrong exactly? this shows up corrupt? and it says this uses dark alex custom firmware to run it doesnt say for se A or B so ppl instead of sayin bullshit like u read it wrong dumbass, say something worth the fukin read lol
ok im wrong lol i just read the source code site
“I’m only human, I make mistakes, just like some of the people on here, the difference is, I admit to making mistakes”
you didn’t admit anything - you complained about the password… do your homework before using something like this, or especially commenting on it
GHEY!
