NervOS 2.0.1 Released *Updated*

greg | May 23, 2008

Update: Pirata quick with the bug fix –

  • Checks if you have more than 74% of battery, if you don’t, it tells you to press X to shut down or [] to continue.
  • Checks if you have enough free space in your memory stick.
  • Improved Installation and Uninstallation systems
  • After any process is run it tells you to press X to shut down instead of continuing.
  • Does not auto edit vsh.txt anymore (you must do it manually, this was proabably causing the memory stick problem)

Count the [PSP] shells, suckaduck! Actually, with respect to Homebrew Idol, only Pirata’s shell replacement counts, and it’s serious. Slamming iR Shell with some stiff competition — NervOS version 2.0.

NervOS Screenshot

I’ve highlighted the major enhancements with NervOS version 2.0; but really, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The release thread provides more detail and several NervOS screenshots. Ensure you read over the supplied (PDF) documentation as well.

  • NervOS Configuration: ability to change ISO Driver, disable/enable Are you Sure Question, change CPU speed, change font, disable/enable Splash Screen and disable/enable Log In.
  • When exiting from NervOS, if you have the nosautoboot.prx enabled, it will not return to NervOS anymore.
  • Improved screenshot function, does not overwrite saved screenshots anymore.
  • File Browser: detects every extensions (if they are typed in the file name)
  • NervOS uses flash memory from now on *
  • PSX Game Loader
  • NervOS Recovery
  • USBHostFS
  • Text Editor
  • NervOS Installer
  • Ability to have up to 3 users using NervOS
  • Log In feature – password + username

All sounds good except log in feature… Why would you share a psp? I think its silly…

In case you have only one psp and you have 1 brother or sister who use the same PSP and both want to use NervOS and different configurations.

NervOS Wiki here.

Use the plugin that comes with it in recovery.

wow, i have been waiting for this app to evolve, mainly waiting for usbhost, any chance of screen redirection like with irshell there is remotejoy4irshell, would it be possible to even use the same program???

Wow Pirata! Very nice! But I no longer think that NervOS is a fitting name for this homebrew… I’m thinking ConfideNT. What do you think? lol. :)

I don’t think I’m quite following what “NervOS uses flash memory from now on” means. Doesn’t everything that runs on the psp use flash memory?

Comment by fivefinger
2008-05-24 15:21:24

it means that it is installed in your flash, not on memstick

I installed NervOS on my PSP Phat (cf 3.90 m33) and everything was good. I made my username and password and was on my way. I went to log into it and it said I had the wrong username/password. Darn! I thought. I must have messed up. I thought to myself, “Well I can just use the Uninstall feature”. So i uninstalled it and then I restarted my PSP. And what is it that I come to find out? My PSP doesn’t play any homebrew, including the NervOs installer. The VSH menu didn’t even come up. As I went to see what the problem is, it looked like I must shut my PSP off the hard way (taking the battery out) and before I restart it, I have to take the memory stick out. After it starts up, I can get to the VSH menu with no problem and I can play a homebrew games. The only other problem now is that when I exit a homebrew game, I have to shut it off the hard way and do everything all over again, as stated above. I’m thinking it is a flash malfunction or some things might have been deleted from the flash in the Uninstall. All I know is I have a half working PSP. And it sucks. Any help?

THEdemolisher,you might want to try to reformat your flash 1 in recovery mode,or just do a normal “Restore Default Settings” on your psp settings.That might work.

Comment by THEdemolisher
2008-05-23 23:14:08

I’ve reformatted my Flash one with the help of the recovery menu – FAILED
I tried Recovery Mode – FAILED.
I’m out of ideas.

Comment by MWxLaughingMan
2008-05-23 23:28:28

Try obtaining Flash Files for your psp version( many psp sites post a download link for them, just have to look) and than just overwrite the flash with the original flash files….

O had this problem yesterday and it happened to me when I had low battery.
I removed my ms and left the psp the whole night without it.

I tested NervOS SEVERAL times with more than 60% of battery and this never happened.

I am going to re-install 3.90 m33-3 when I get time to day.
Have you had low battery too?

Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-24 03:29:55

Nevermind! I tested using a different memory stick and the problem is the other one, probably you had not enough space in your memory stick.

Go to -> format memory stick -> (backup anyting you want before) -> press X to format -> when done install NervOS again, works perfectly.

Remember this probably happened due to low battery or not enough space in the memory stick. But as I said before this DOES NOT TOUCH any flash0 files so there should be a reason for such thing to happen, there’s the fixing way.

Comment by THEdemolisher
2008-05-24 23:21:11

I have a pandoras battery and I have a program to make a magic memory stick.
It won’t write.
And I have to say, this is the weirdest string of coincidences I have ever come across because no matter what I do, nothing helps.
:/

 
 
 
Comment by THEdemolisher
2008-05-23 23:26:32

I’m not sure if this is normal either.
To access Flash0 from my PSP (where the NervOs files are written) I need to have my PSP memory stick in. To put it in plain English, my PSP is f’d up.

Comment by M33 User
2008-05-24 00:27:26

Use Universal Unbircker. That’s all I know. This has never happened to anyone else’s psp. Did you have any flash1 space. That could be the problem. Click on my name and logon to this forum. It will help you

 
Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-24 03:14:41

NervOS does not use flash0

Comment by THEdemolisher
2008-05-24 23:19:52

My flash1 was wiped completely. The only NervOs files that were flashed were flashed to flash0.
That I know for a fact.

Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-25 05:48:55

not possible.
As I said, the only version that was writing to flash0 was a beta version and only used by me.

go to seplugins in the vsh menu in usb connection and erase the vsh text nos whatever

 
Comment by MWxLaughingMan
2008-05-24 02:41:27

NervOS files are written in Flash1 not flash0, from what i understand(in NervOS uninstaller, says “Removing files from Flash1 as well as Ms0″

 
Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-24 03:16:07

NervOS ONLY USES memory stick and flash1 partition so NO SYSTEM FILES ARE TOUCHED.

 
Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-24 04:14:33

If anyone after uninstalling or installing NervOS cannot load homebrew, iso’s and enter the vsh menu.

Follow this please:

This never happened before but there’s the fixing.

i think there are too many bugs in this version i think i’ll wait for new one…
i use this 3 times and then had uninstallatoin problem…
so i’ll just wait…

 
Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-24 09:18:45

Too many bugs?
WHich bugs? lol..the installation one? NervOS 2.0 WAS TESTED LOTS OF TIMES and not problems were found in installation or uninstallation, may depend of the memory stick or probably the psp.
I updated NervOS to 2.0.1 and I hope it fixes that memory stick problem.

Comment by rozac
2008-05-25 05:42:44

when i said “bugs” i meaned the install/uninstall problem with mem. stick
and by the way i had to : formate mem. stick and formate flash_1

 
Comment by rozac
2008-05-25 05:45:36

Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-25 05:47:45

2.0.1 fixed that problem, and you it was not needed a ms format or flash1, just remove vsh.txt and voila!
but no need anymore

Comment by rozac
2008-05-25 06:27:36

can you make nervos log-in appear when you start-up PSP?

Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-25 06:44:18

Create or Edit seplugins/vsh.txt and add this line:
flash1:/NervOS/system/nosautoboot.prx

then go to recovery (Custom Firmware Recovery) and activate the auto boot prx

Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-25 10:01:07

Comment by rozac
2008-05-25 10:04:10

oooops!
sory i fixed this
and there’s a BUG!
sometimes when you press home button (in game) the screen freezes when: pleas wait… and the PSP resets itself
(this is why i asked you how to make home the nervos)

(Comments wont nest below this level)
 
Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-25 10:12:26

lol that’s not a NervOS bug o.O, NervOS is totally freed after loading an ISO or Homebrew, and if it happened when nosautoboot.prx disabled then its not a NervOS problem for sure.

Comment by Pirata Nervo
2008-05-24 11:01:31

hmm?
Is there any Custom Firmware 3.95 ? I thought it was in the makings yet. Try it.

Updated the zip file guys.
REMOVED AUTO EDIT VSH.TXT FEATURE, it was causing the memory stick problem I guess, I only had it after I added it yesterday and I tested a lot of times and my beta testers the whole week and no problems so I guess that was the problem.

See. I was jinxed. As soon as people reported problems, I had a problem. And I’m Special, unless you can code and make a better one then STFU you homo. This can’t brick a psp. Format your memstick and it’s fixed or rerun the installer by booting the psp with the memstick out then put it in later.

Tried it and worked great, only one problem is everytime I changed setting, I had to enter user and password. User name and password should be appeared only when u cold boot ur psp (to me is BEST) or soft boot (might be ok). Hope next update will fix user/pwd all the time….hope to see more..more..more..great work.

other than that, all’s good

I will probably add the Log Off option on 2.1, new icons will be added on 2.1 too.
Press Home while in NervOS to open the general file browser.
what do you mean by theme color?

i’ve tried nervOS and installation and so went fine. had to do recovery, but after that all was well

i played around with it, but i fail to see what advantage it brings over using the XMB with the vsh menu and the music.prx plugin. i could not get music playing while in game, no gif support, and i forgot about a few other problems.

it looks ok, but still needs some work and extra features to convince me.

keep it up!
