Fanjita Waves Goodbye!

Posted by greg

Fanjita of Team Noobz is waving goodbye to the PSP scene. Fanjita, whom authored & aided in the authoring of many great PSP homebrews, including one of my personal favourites — piKey — has stated on his personal blog that it’s time to move onto various other non-PSP related projects. We here at PSP Hacks wish you nothing but the best of luck with your future endeavors, all the best. And thanks for the great releases!

    Sony’s thinking “If we can’t beat the hackers we will buy them out” I bet this is what is happening.

    In light of the petition to get CAPCOM to release Resident Evil for the PSP, I created a petition to have Valve Software release Counter-Strike for the PSP.

    Hopefully this isn’t permanent, as I really appreciate your hard work and everything we have is thanks to people like you. Dark Alex left, now Fanjita-who’s next to retire? Who will carry on the scene for us? What about the slim? Will Dark Alex return? Find out next week on another exciting episode of psp-hacks…

    Im in total agreement with whoa. Hopefully Dark_Alex and Fajita are working on something BIG. Bigger then the unbricking, but what? I dont know. Maybe a AWESOME custom firmware. That would be cool. Whose next tho,the whole Noobz team. I was upset when Dark_Alex left us so i looked to Fanjita for everything, Now who am i supposed to look up to to BEAT sony?

    There is a chance that they’re all being paid off by Sony or something. But those ‘@ssholes’ you speak of could be dealt with and hunted down.

    No cocksucking here, why the pottymouth? And while I appreciate what m33 has done and is doing, it’s hard to compete with his predecessors. Where are all the “all in one” installers? The people that started all of this are almost all gone, and that’s my problem. There’s a new psp coming out if you didn’t know and what do we do then? I don’t know how to code.

    Dear SONY CEO(more like FONY CEO),
    You are nothing but a fake and a mother fucking Fony, You talk shit, I’m ON the Sony PSP Firmware Team and I know that we here at Sony didn’t hunt either Dark_Alex or Fanjita down to pay them off. They left at their own will.

    All of us here use DAX’s Last CFW(3.40OE-A’), we used it since the BETA 1.50 P.O.C. we WERE asked to test and use the Custom Firmware to figure out ways to increase the “security” but as more and more of the Custom Firmware updates came out, more and more of Us became to sick of having to update it.
    Ever noticed that after a few days or weeks we release another update? It’s because WE find the loops in the firmware, Even If we find the loops we wait for some one like DAX or the n00bz team release their hack for it. So There you have it WE RESPECT the PSP Hackers

    Comment by PoisonCrazy0000
    2007-08-28 00:25:17

    even though you are most likely just lying about being a sony employee, if by some chance you are, I would like to say most all of us respect the work you do at sony. After all, without it we wouldn’t have the system we all love today. I would also like to add that maybe instead of only finding holes in the firmware security, you could also add some of the legal add-ons that you see in custom firmwares. Not everyone who modifies their psp does it to pirate games. Some just like the added features and true homebrew. Perhaps if sony allowed homebrew to be submitted to them for legal public release, then less people would stray from the official firmwares? That’s just a thought.

    Sorry to see you go Fanjita, good luck in your future endevours. Don’t forget us when the PSP2 hits.

    Maybe you all should stop crying and learn how to write your own homebrew. We wouldn’t have a problem then. And anyone who buys the new PSP is an idiot. The day they come out with a PSP that has AIM, Yahoo! IM, and other cool features then I’ll buy it, but for now, since all they are doing is slimming it up and releasing for more money… Fuck them.

    Comment by Yue
    2007-08-27 02:27:56

    This will hurt a lot when PSP Slim is out… Fanjita stated that they had planned Pandora’s Battery for PSP Slim, but thanks to some stupid(s) traitor(s) they were forced to realease it before time…

    Fanjita has done a lot for the PSP Homebrew Scene, without asking for nothing more than a donation, and what does he get?

    1. Ungrateful people always whining for more.
    2. Team mates screwing up everthing.

    When DAX left, it was sad, but now that Fanjita leaves, it really hurts. It’s not that there will be no more homebrew for the PSP, but Fanjita had a lot of knowledge, and that means less time between releases…

    Good luck Fanjita. You’ve made the best decision.

    2007-08-27 03:23:20

    I hope this means that they’re going to focus on ps3. they spent hours a day hacking and coding psp. DAX said in an interview that he spent 2-4 hours a night on psp. I think now that M33 is on the scene doing great work, they’re off to bigger and better things (PS3).

    Dammit… I remember the less-known programmer Becus25 leaving as well. :| Will all the major names in the PSP scene eventually stop working their magic ?

    If he wants to make some time for his own family you can’t really blame him. I hope this is not adieu but a mere goodbye, and I hope he’ll come back one day and do some more amazing work, under a different name if he pleases.

    Best of luck.

    why the hell every time there is some breakthrough release of an app the creator quits PSP forever…first it was the kick ass custom firm guy dark Alex now that this guy makes the super kick ass universal unbricker a week later hes done???in my opinion sony is getting to these people and threatening them telling them that they will sue the shit out of them if they dont quit now. i hope they dont get to m33, that would suck!

    P.S. FUCK YOU SONY

    Comment by Zen
    2007-08-27 09:44:26

    I don’t think so… If Sony was hunting down the developers of Pandora they would have sued Team C+D by now. And besides, I read an article stating that the hack did not actually break any law. (I’m not sure though, but no hacker here had been reported of being sued). If you went to his sight he said that the Pandora Project was leaked. Nothing more I can add to that.

    Goodness! How rude of some people to leave the first post as an insult!

    Anyway, I wish you the best of luck Fanjita! Your work will always be remembered by me! XD

    “It’s with much regret that I have to announce that I’m going to retire from the sharp end of the PSP homebrew scene. The betrayal of trust that preceded the Pandora release was extremely hurtful, and has left me unable to fully trust the people I’d previously enjoyed working so hard with. And so, I have had to decide to stop working on projects that require that level of trust.”

    - Pandora was leaked! OMFG! I wondered why it had been released so early even before the PSP Slim or PSP-2000 had gone into market. I even thought it was a stupid move by the developers. But, to think that it was actually leaked. Heck! With Sony stopping distribution of all PSP-1000 or old modeled PSP, by leaking Pandora it’s like breaking a wall only to face a greater obstacle which we ourselves made. That’s not even funny. I was thinking that if it had not been leaked we could have been able to hack the PSP-2000 more easily.

    i think that sony wants homebrew to be alive, they have almost handed us the tools we needed to stay alive, gta lcs & lumines, it seems as though they want us to do this! it would make sence because the real money maker for them is the system itself, not the games. if games don’t sell it hurts companys like rockstar more than sony! sony just wants to sell systems and what better way than to support a growing homebrew scene? i really doubt that d_a and fanjita got bribed or even threatened by sony, they have a bigger project, that is all.

    reading most of the comments here - seeing some of the reasons he left the “scene”. Dumb people everywhere - the less braincells - the more posts in here.. I really learned to hate the PSP scene, but i really appreceate the homebrew developers’ work - and all of you, using FREE software, should do that too.

    As said by AzRAeL, I can see why people are dropping off like flies. There is no gratitude for what people are doing here. When they finally decide to move on, they get nothing but insults and derogatory remarks.

    Frankly, if I were one in the PSP scene seeing all this flaming those who do the PSP scene a favor by producing such high quality work, and then being kicked in the head when all is said and done. I too would leave the scene.

    …nothing but a bunch of ungrateful pricks…the lot of you.

    I can tell just by th language that a lot of you are young teenagers. If your not then you really must have had some serious problems growing up as a child.

    Is all the swearing really needed? Did you lot not have any parents around to bring you up correctly??? If you did then the buck should be passed onto them and I can’t blame you for the language you use.

    Seriously you can get your message across much stronger and taken more seriously by talking normally (If the kids of these days know how to do that). It would be interesting to meet you lot coz I bet none of you would talk like that face to face, so why bring it on here?

    Anyway thats my words for today and anyone who cares to dissagree can F*%k off.

    Whats with all these big shots quitting? So you got your feelings hurt, big deal. In the adult world that happens every day and you have to get over it. Whats really going on here? I say sony is making its way through the hacker groups and scaring or paying them off…… Thats what.

    Leave the guy alone. If he want to retire and spend quality some time with his kid, then let him do so. He doesn’t owe us shit !

    Everything he did was for FREE and out of his own free time. Even if a hobby gets dangerous, I say screw it and concentrate on something more important. Family before career.
