TimeMachine v0.1 Released

greg | February 15, 2008

Not only does Dark_AleX hold the PSP championship belt of awesomeness, he probably has your girlfriend washing out her panties in his reverse engineered Maytag. Hitting hard yet again with a fresh new release — TimeMachine v0.1.

Similar to BOOSTER’s DevHook; TimeMachine loads previous official/custom firmwares off the memory stick using a Pandora battery and custom IPLs.

The timemachine is useful to run software that is not supported anymore, and also as a way of booting psp’s even if the internal firmware is destroyed. It can also be useful for developers to test their homebrew in different firmwares.

The packaged readme details the available installation options, usage, known problems and considerations; I strongly encourage you to read that over before you begin.

Find all the necessary firmwares here (official), and here (custom).

TimeMachine v0.1 currently supports the following:

  • Original 1.50 — can only be loaded on the phat
  • 1.50 with some 3.40 hw modules — can be loaded on both, phat and slim
  • 3.40 OE — can only be loaded on phat
  • 3.60 M33 — can only be loaded on slim

Other firmwares are said to be added in the future.

Download: TimeMachine v0.1

Thanks for the quick emails, Fergatron and Dave C.

Sounds good, but I’m not quite educated on this. As a Slim user, how can I benefit from this? I’d appreciate if someone could answer that for me.

Comment by Simpsim
2008-02-15 19:36:10

For one, I believe that this is a first attempt at running a 1.50 kernel on the slim, albeit with a few modules absent.

@Matt

You called Snake a n00b and here you are asking a n00b question?

The main benefit for me would be no more flashing firmwares to the internal flash. Just run from a memory stick. Did you even read the post?

“TimeMachine loads previous official/custom firmwares off the memory stick using a Pandora battery and custom IPLs.+

ThatOneGuy,

I should have viewed the other posters’ names. I’m not the same Matt that made those comments.

And I’m still not sure as a Slim user how exactly this will benefit me. I can already run just about any emulator and play original PS1 games, so I’m not sure what adding this would give me additionally, so I appreciate an explanation. Thanks.

 
Comment by Matt
2008-02-16 12:52:56

I was being sarcastic. Snake obviously didnt read the post cause this is an attempt too get 1.5 kernel on the PSP Slim and his post said “good good… now make 1.50 kernel for psp slim like psp fat have… plssssss”

Comment by spendle

Just making sure, are you holding circle while it powers on?

Comment by koper
2008-02-16 03:22:02

no im not holding circle when it powers on, do i have to? i dont get the whole concept of this, is it like a second firmware boot up from a memstick and do i turn load it by using a pandorized battery and holding circle when turning it on???

Comment by lpopman
2008-02-16 14:03:04

Yes, just hold circle while switching on your psp.

yeah follow instructions to this as these are pretty poor instructions. But everyone planning on buying a slim wait til this is fully ready. I give everything a try then wait a week until there is a better release that is safe and easy like Universal Unbricker v4 or Network Update custom frimwares by DAX.

so, what do this mean for us normal noob psp players? what do this program really do? why do we need to use version 3.4 or 3.71 etc. when we can use the latest psp versions? version 1.5 maybe but others. i don’t know…

When I first tried to install this, it messed up my pandora memory stick…and i tried my darndest to get it back to the way it was. After two or so hours of messing around, i figured out this doesnt have to be installed on top of a Pandora memstick… even works on non-compadible Pandora cards (ie non sony)…it works fantastic on my slim…now can use programs from back in the old Fat only days…been missing them so much. A modified version of this is bound to come out…but this program even with its flaws is almost as great at the original Pandora itself.. you’ve outdone yourself Dax, we owe you a debt of graditude. With this program…the entire PSP family line is officialy hacked!

@DAX:
Thanks to you for your grat work. The timemachine works perfectly on my slim. I’ve your FW 3.90-M33-2 and PMPlayer doesnt play any pmp files. With your TM and the 3.60M33 I can view those videos. IRSHELL for 1.5 works, too.
Please don’t stop to work on this thing.

I havee all the necessary files and successfully installed everything, but when I put in my Pandora, no matter what I do, it just boots to the XMB. Help?

Comment by Arcane
2008-02-21 13:59:06

When turning on the PSP with Pandora Battery, hold down CIRCLE to boot to 3.60 M33 or SQUARE to boot to 150+340…. Read the Config.txt in the TM folder on your PSP memory stick

CROSS = 150
CIRCLE = 150_340
TRIANGLE = 340OE
SQUARE = 360M33
UP = pandora.bin

This tool is FANTASTIC!

MAn, how did u do it? I can’t seem to pinpoint my location, I randomly went back to the day MLK got assassinated but too bad I couldnt save him because the time machine got a bug and zap me back to the present before i even had a chance to do anythingh.

 
 
Comment by McFly
2008-02-23 19:32:19

i finally figured the bug. you see you keep going back to your own time whenever your eyes blink. and the only way to prevent that from happening is to hold your breath. so whenever you would blink, dont breath. if you get it wrong youll go back instantly. recently ive lasted about 20 minutes in NY while im watching the twin towers collapse back in 9-11-01.
