This would be great for my program “Reflash-X” No mayor detail on the program. Its just supposed to reflash any bricked psp to “ANY” firmware update. It would be a multi-firmware software

sorry man i think your bullshitting us all
but if your method was true no one would have to make downgraders..
just purposely brick a psp and use your program and install 150

show us some proof or something u know just to gain trust man :)

yea.. im no longer afraid to buy a newer psp thanks to the guys.

and black_omens, would u finally give us a glimpse of “reflash-X” cuz u never seem to stop with it. its in every1 of ur comments and yet u have no proof. i guess ur also working on a 3.02 downgrader too?

Yes i guess it could be possible but…you would have to have the desired firmware files on your psp when you brick it…which is very inconvenient…no wait you would have to program it to acces flash0 and flash1 while bricked which is impossible so basically stfu with those bullshit comments

Thank You

not really
if he could get the psp to somehow boot a bin file at startup, then what you could do is run a SONY updater that would brick your psp becuase it has flash0 access where the firmware is stored. btw flash1 has no importance for the psp. the psp could actually recover itself from a flash1 delete, flash 1 only holds the registry files, and wall paper. so it can be possible to brick on purpose, but the unbricker is out of the question

and btw GPL licensing is just a service that provides protection against faggots who say “OMG LOOK AT MY 1337 PROGRAM” when they didn’t change anything about it

Right now it is a beta….. but since the bricked psp does not work my other psp is connected to the bricked one therefore connecting pass-by the flash0 and inserting the new and desired software.

Materials:

Reflash-X
Double Usb Connectivity Cable
PC/Mac
Memory card
Eboot.pbp Update

Reflash-X is still in beta mode and I have already bricked two of my psp’s. Is Just an noob-friendly app which connects two psp’s together through USB double connectivity allowing the unbricked psp to access the Flash0 of the unbricked psp nonetheless allowing it to be formatted. There are two parts to “Reflash-X” Psp Eboot.pbp and the windows executable.

Material:

Reflash-X
Double Usb Connectivity Cable
PC/Mac
Memory card (any)
Eboot.pbp Update

this is what makes the scene. Milestones for next-gen systems. The most active videogame system scene ever. Bigger than the xbox scene, more acknowledged than any other scene. This is what makes a scene, it’s contributers. So chip in a buck, quit being cheap and taking shit for free and for granted. This shit don’t just come out of thier asses.

2006-12-29 14:35:23

but withouth the beta testers i would have taken so much longer for release as he would have had to serch for and iron out ALL bugs on his own and i wouldn’t have said they are inexperianced as they have contributed so much more to the scene that you ever have. how many people have Mathieulh and harley g both helped out to Fix or setup their psps and software on the forums without these people and others like them the scene would have nobody but twats like you who do nothing but bitch about people who helped create the software you are obviously using. yeah DARK ALEX is the king and without him we’d have very little but for you to say that just shows how much of a twat u are. how many people use or have useed harley gs custom firmware and if i remember right he made the recovery console for OE and SE. so you’ll thank him if u brick. sorry for the long post but he was just RUDE

I wonder where I saw this source code…. Hmmm I think I saw this in Visual Basic format some weeks ago when some so-called downgrader was released…. Did you happen to modify that source for your own good? Because I been reading alot previously and took apart the application that was release by Chaos Zero a few weeks back and there are major similarities with this source code with the one he released

Your psp is not bricked its just semi-corrupted…. when the blue screen appears just simply press the o on the key pad

Дауник с 281 до 271!!!!!!!!!(есчо,ссори за флуд и офтоп)

http://symbianz.msk.ru/Meteor/psp/other/PSP_v2.81_Dummy_Eboot_Loader.rar

Этот способ не завершает свою работу до конца, то есть 2.71 не загружается после загрузки главного меню обновление, потому что PSP обнурыживает что на ней установлена прошивка 2.81. Я надеюсь что кто-нибудь (в частности Dark_Alex или 0okm) сможет хакнуть EBOOT 2.71, заставив его не проверять прошивку PSP, а просто заменить 2.71 на 2.81.

Программа которая загружает 2.71 сначала считает пустой файл загрузки поврежденным обновлением, но если вы поменяете карту памяти на ту на которой находится чистое обновление 2.71, вы загрузите 2.71, теперь если мы имеем хакнутую прошивку 2.71, тем самым PSP не проверяет какая прошивка сейчас в ней (в нашем случае 2.81), мы сможем сделать даунгрейд с 2.81 на 2.71, а далее уже с 2.71 на 1.50.

Для начала вы должны иметь две карты памяти. Они могут быть любого размера, я например использовал две карты по 32 мб. Этот пустой загрузочный файл который я создал специально для прошивки 2.81, используется как Launcher для загрузки EBOOT прошивки 2.71.

Инструкция:
—————
1. Отформатируйте обе карты памяти.
2. Создайте новую папку в MS0:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE и скопируйте туда пустой EBOOT.
3. Скачайте обновление до 2.71 (EBOOT 2.71) и скопируйте его на другую карту памяти в такую же директорию (MS0:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE).
4. После этого, вставьте в PSP, карту на которой находится пустой EBOOT и запустите его через XMB в секции GAME.
5. Как только он загрузится, быстро выньте карту памяти и вставьте вторую карту памяти с чистым обновлением! Если вы не сделаете это достаточно быстро, вы вернетесь обратно в XMB с ошибкой меню обновления до 2.71.

Как заверяет UB (автор этого способа даунгрейда), он не брикнит вашу PSP (ещё не брикал никому), так что можете его попробовать и может вам удастся обновиться до 2.71.

Всё было написано неким Meteor.

Спасибо за информу http://www.itsplay.com
