XMB Wave Hack Tutorial
greg | February 7, 2007
I was just browsing through the PSP Hacks forums and came across sepreath’s thread.
sepreath’s XMB Wave tutorial details step-by-step instructions for hex editing the PSP’s wave effect. You can actually manipulate it in various ways — colours, shape, size, etc… Below are two samples:


The supplied xmbWave Packager, by vb_master & DarkStone, includes instructions for re-packaging the appropriate file in preparation for flashing it to your PSP. Aside from this tool you’ll require a hex editor — nothing a simple Google search can’t do.
Download: Custom xmbWave Packager v0.1
Once you’re set, head over to this thread.

seems intresting but i like my wallpaper better
this seems good if you like the waves on the psp i guess
the wave hack seem cool
i love this shit!
how do u get the waves to show up over you background pic ?
Flash your background to where the psp’s monthly backgrounds are.
hex editor what is that??
too bad it dont work for 3.00 i dont got GTA so i gotta stay here. it looks tight
its hard to make anything look decent
Question: Does this work for 3.01 OE-A’
u still use 3.01, get with the times man :->
does it work on 3.10oe?
and DAMN Girl this is hot
it works wit 301-303oe-c but not 310-oe-a
Dats what I’m tryna ask I got 3.10oea-2
omg how do you do this?
2.Go to offset decimal 530 through 716.
3. Mix the characters between those lines. (keep them seperated by 00 (look like .’s)
it’s on the readme…

WRONG!
works on ALL OE’s and SE’s
peoples, it is VERY simple to do this. Unless of course you want to make your own waves.
But if you look around in forums (not just this sites) you’ll see that thousands of peoples already have pre-made and AWSOME waves ready for you to just copy over your old one.
Happy modding…
I have 3.10-oe-a’ myslef and are running custom waves and boot waves… I also had em on me previous 3.10oe-a so there. no more questions about what can/can’t this run on.
I know it works on 3.10 OE-A/A’, here’s a screenshot to prove it. To bad the topmenu.rco or w/e doesn’t work yet…

Check out my Halo font and Gears of War background, lol. With my Sega Gameboot and DAX FW, the only thing that’s actually Sony is the PSP and the battery, my 4 gig memory stick is Sandisk. :P
Could you edit this to do other things then… instead of a wave, could you edit it to show an image moving around?
pacman moving left-right eating dots?
mario running/ jumping into coin box/ running off screen and repeating?
I hope this hack evolves into that.
Could This Finally Allow Moving GIF Images As Backgrounds

It’s difficult enough as it is eiting the waves and these are just simple lines. What you huys are suggesting is a totally new mod. If it is possible, I seriously don’t think it’s going to be anytime soon for those kind of ideas. Not with this mod anyway.
CAN ANYBODY MAKE ME A COOL XMB WAVE ILL REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

IT DOESNT WORK FOR ME i DONT UNDERSTAND HAVE A 310 OE-A’
PLZ SOME HELP
woooh been looking for this
can anyone do or does anybody have the PS3 wave design yet?
there’s a risk of bricking your PSP when you do this because it involves flashing the PSP.
is there a hack that lets you change the background that the waves move on … like the monthly themes … pspersonalize only works for FW 1.50 and i havent seen anyone make one for 3.10OE or above. ??? any sudgestions
can it work for 3.10
