PSP Firmware 6.00 BETA Released to Official Developers
greg | August 29, 2009
Released to legitimate/licensed PSP developers is firmware 6.00 beta. It’s clear Sony has taken the motherly role in protecting their newborn: the PSPgo. PSPGEN, who we all know and trust, shed some light on the 6.00 situation…
Sony has no doubt performed a serious firmware audit plugging all known vulnerabilities — even unpublished kernel exploits — found in the current firmware versions, which of course leaves their new hand-held much harder to hack; or any [newer] PSP that is upgraded to 6.00+ for that matter. Those are the details we know right now. We’ll keep you posted.

well the phat 1000 if it got updated it could still use pandora battery…
that’s why I said newer PSPs… Newer hardware, newer firmware.
D-D-DOMINATED!
hey i have psp2000 and i awrdy upgraded it to 6.0 firmwre ..i cant play the iso images now..can anyone help me plz…
LMFAO Well that sucks but hey eventually the PSPGo will get hacked.
We will outsmart the machine ;)
I Agree wit u, WE WILL outsmart da machine, sony’s cappin lol
Are you retarded?
With has a H at the end.
Da isn’t a word, i assume you mean The.
Also “u” isn’t a word, it’s a letter.
The way you type isn’t cool, it’s pathetic.
Damn retards, infesting the internet.
Classic.
Moar
Whilst that drives me nuts too, I’ve learned to accept that some peoples typing habits are poorer than should be allowed. It can be mind-boggling how people seem to think that displaying their thoughts as slang written out is a good idea, but it happens.
@D:
It’s true. Typing like that makes intelligent people have to double take in order to read it correctly. But I suppose you aren’t using 1337 yet so you’re not that bad yet.
@Original Topic:
Die Sony!!! Give me an open source handheld!!!
@Acid_1: If you want an open source handheld, look up OpenPandora. It’s expensive and still in development but it is sweeeeet.
lol so people ar kinda sad, to be honest people use slang aka most people use on the internet, for god any smart person who can be assed can guess ‘u’ means you but if someone cnt figure slight changes to their text like shorthand, oh by the way u’ll noticed im doing it on purpose too
oh and if u want a plain english person to translate it go ask a smart person, not the impatient ones cause there a bit a slow, lazy.lol
man u better shut da f**k up!!!!! people can write howeva dey want and u cant do nothing about it leva! trying to correct people’s writing…. u better get the F outta here and go play with ur self. shit who do u think u are???!!!!
I’m pretty sure he thinks he’s a self-thinking individual who likes to express himself in a clear, correct manner and actually feels a distinct pain in the front of his head whenever he reads things that people like you write. I must admit, I am one of those people, too.
Welcome to English, Compton 310 and D.
Greg ought to really enforce the “English Only” rule and prohibit morons from posting like that.
He didn’t understand half of those words.
Sorry, I just consider anyone who writes like that as a troll, and handle them in that way.
Either way, if they aren’t a troll, they are a complete moron which is not any better…no way of reasoning with either.
that comment was these 2 fags: Larry and Acid_1.
I also hate the fact that some people act like they’re the hackers. “Outsmart the machine”
Please.
People lets just share the love and remember why where in this thread. If certain individuals want to spell poorly with horrible grammar then should that not be there issue? Anyways i don’t want the PSPgo to be hacked there actually starting to produce good games for PSP. i don’t mind if the 1000,2000 & 3000 get hacked though but just leave the go let company’s produce good games then hack it if possible.
LARRY fuc U punk azz b1tch mothafuccer
Are you assisting him?
‘H’ should have been enclosed by single-quotation marks and preceded by the word ‘an’, not the letter ‘a’.
When using the letter ‘i’ to refer to yourself, it should always be capitalized since it is a proper noun.
PWNED.
epic retardness, have you been on the internet lately? get a life homo
‘I’ is capitalized… Retard…
ok, so lemme see… this went from a psp discussion to a spelling bee? seriously, if you dont like the way 1337 people spell (yes, 1337, because it is awesome) then sue the internet. sue peoples creativity and sue the different ways that people type. its the same as criticizing peoples handwriting. (btw, no caps. sue me! XD)
anyway, im rooting for them to make this cfw, i am really desperate to hack my psp. go homebrew!!!
you know that each time sony realeses a new firmware, it is harder to find holes, so it is MIGHT not WILL
i have lost hope for my 3000- sold it
hey other people outsmart the machine but some guys(majority) doesnt even give thanks to them. like the gen team. when ever they release a cfw some guys always compare them to DAX that is now nowhere to be found. I just want to say. support gen and other team. don’t give bad comments about them. they are doing their best and they are give us the cfw that we need for free.
ugh another chance for noobs to update and cry at the forums and such.
sold my psp 3000-gettin’ a 1000 or 2000
We can still hack it! Even if it does take 12000 years…
no “we” can never hack “anything” only the elite that have experience and also the ones that bring “homebrew” which os really called “reverse engineering” is the ones that will hack and exploit the devices that come into the mainstream. Also I think they work at the the companies yhat release the products, since it just seems way too easy for “hacked firmware” to just surface after a retail firmware comes out. ….Way Too Easy
Unfortunate….
that’ll mean the psp2 will be even harder to hack
no shit sherlock
nothing is uncrackable…..everything has got loopholes…it’s only a matter of time….
My thoughts would be to figure out what the authentication keys are…it would be harder to patch without crapping on their whole customer base.
aka…crack the signature instead of the firmware.
My thoughts exactly, although I think DA might have already done so but for good reason has not shared it. We possibly might see it sooner tha you think. Maybe with the relase of the Go.
exactly. some game will come along allowing for a buffer overflow or some stupid mistake will be found in the official firmware. for now it is only a matter of time.
never fear, everything has loopholes :D its just a matter of time before hackers find them :D
well, lets think noone hacks these new pre-ipls, ipls or CPUs, whatever, and PSP-Go stays unhacked forever because Sony works on that a lot.
then?
will we able to get trophies on Go?
no.
because older PSPs are already hacked.
I say it will be hacked in a week, whose with me?
You’re kidding me right? The newer psp2k’s (And 3k’s) Haven’t even been able to see a real custom firmware and the exploit took an awfully long time to even be surfaced let alone the release of CFW Enabler a month or two after.
I highly doubt there will be an exploit that will be found to work on the PSPGo anytime soon after its release, Everyone had hype over the newer Firmware they thought the PSPGo was going to be released with due to the anticipated MOH Exploit.
I say all chances are lost for any exploits people are holding back now.
I wouldn’t count on anything coming out soon let alone CFW for the PSPgo. (since it is new hardware+ software)
I was really just being optimistic. I know were about as close to getting a hacked 6.0 as we are to getting a hacked ps3. I really wish ps3 would be hacked at least to allow .srt subtitles. By the time someone hacks the ps3, i’ll already have a htpc and wont care.
This is what the article said. Nothing important but im sure some of you were wondering.
Like every major change of version (here the passage 6.x), it is natural to ask “what are the big news that justifies the number change?”
We will try to learn a little more but it already seems clear that this new firmware will, at least, the protections of firmwares 5.51, 5.55 and 5.70 which were adjusted to plug all known vulnerabilities and, more troublesome, even unpublished vulnerabilities kernel (one used by Miriam 5.02HEN for example).
It is indeed clear that Sony has made a serious audit of its firmware and having to try to stop hacks from the consoles. The PSP Go is also likely to be an exciting challenge for players of the world underground.
It will also probably compatible with the new 3.0 of the PS3 but we will notify you as soon as we learn a little more.
And on a side note I didn’t realize french translated to English so well…
My thoughts exactly. 6.0 implies some major new features. Will we be seeing any (how about a web browser that doesn’t suck?), or is this still more “security” BS?
If I speculate correctly, the PSP Development Kits have dramatically gone down on proce so more people can afford them. This means that with the new PSPGo! there will be games not only from AAA studios, but possibly indie as well. Indie has some level of amateurism. This means that there could be high probability of producing mediocre, unprotected, and/or unsafe code. This may be our way in.
Just my thoughts…
if i remember correctly indie devs arent getting the same dev kits
plus these will be downloadable titles, meaning they will get updated, they will be encrypted
Sony claims they cover up all vulnerabilities, however they have been proved wrong. In fact, many times. Kgsws’s mohh exploit might just be the answer to hacking the firmware.
My cousin was going to sell MOH 1 and 2 to GameStop for 10 dollars, so i gave him 20 and said he would thank me someday.
Well it’s going to be really hard to hack it. We have no experience with this module, no exploits and this time we have no Dark_Alex, but I believe we can find a way.
We still have DAX.
i know i just heard the new. it’s just his forum is closed down and everyone thought he left for good. It was a HUGE misunderstanding
He’s dea.d
time is all we need
is all we need
if there is a will there is a way
Hey, I’m just happy to hear that 6.0 will come out and DAX will hopefully come back to the scene to get us 6.0 M33. Not demanding, just hoping…really really hoping….
I knew this would happen lol. Microsoft is yet to keep up with Sony’s soon to become infamous security methods.
yea if Microsoft joins with all its security weaknesses and flaws then there will be hundreds of holes to plunder and poke
theres no bit without a bug
Good news/ bad news
-Bad news Sony really put privacy to a challege
-Good News, maybe DAX will want to once again prove Sony wrong and come back when pspgo launch, and maybe we have 6.00m33 by mid OCT. And maybe a slim, super slim chance the creator of HEN (not chickHEN) come back. With him no firmware is uncrackable.
man I can’t wait until this is hacked then being able to use like a most likely to be bluetooth keyboard !! and maybe even six axis pairing for gaming !!
If u look at this in a big picture they could really stop pieriting. The soul calibur game requires firmware 5.55 and still there is no cfw.5.55 if they kept updating those who rather use there games on the mem stick (weather bought or downloaded) might have no other choice than to use umd games. Well someone needs to act fast before sony accomplishes their goal.
1000 got hacked -> sony released 2000 -> 2000 got hacked -> sony released 3000 -> 3000 got hacked -> sony releases 4000 ->>> never ending circle
What is the point of hacking the new PSP GO…
It does not have a UMD Slot so that means that all of the new games are going to be on the Play Station Store which will be near impossible to pirate. Which the majority of CFW user’s are.
Sony are obviously trying very hard to make it very hard to hack like the PS3. So with new hardware and the new 6.0 firmware, It is probably going to be very difficult to hack.
The PSP 3000 still isnt 100% hacked. It has CFW Enabler but that is a load of crap. Well sort of at least it works but they still have not made a pernament CFW which it needs…
You do know that they created a PSN License Cracker, right?
They are most likely too update there DRM as well so it is uncrackable as well.
Like i said without a hacked PSP you cant play cracked/pirated Games. so the DRM hack is only useful when the PSP is actually hacked which is going to be very unlikely, I am guessing there going to make there security like the near military security PS3 :P
i was just about to say the same thing. and 16 gigs of internal memory is a whole lot of gaming space.
I no longer see much point in hacking :o
ive played my ps1 games, i dont have any homebrew. i dont need to play games from iso and there doesnt seem to be much else.
the only reason im with m33 still is the hope of a better internet browser and that still hasnt happened.
I would laugh so hard if someone made a cfw of the beta before the actual firmware is released LOOL ;-)
I have only one problem with the Go, battery life. Sure it would be great to have custom firmware, dual analog sticks, so on and so forth, but battery life changes all that. My iPod Touch lasts a good 10 hours of solid music, game, and video playing before I even need to think of charging it, and look at the size. If the PSPgo could get better battery life I would definitely use it for my on the go music, video, and, of course, gaming needs.
What ever happened to hooking up an ipod to a psp and using it to store iso’s, music, video, etc. That was a promising hack.
that, i think, has been out…however, it required that you remove the hdd frm the ipod itself and using that to replace the umd drive…it also required that you kept it plugged in, no?
Some of you guys.. Please grow up and stop argued.. That’s not worth. Enough of this problem, man!
CF 5.55 TMX-1 on the way, if there any release candidate i want to try!
dang…i wouldn’t be surprised if sony decided to copy their infamous security on the ps3 to the psp…i have yet to hear anything about a hack…except that modchip that surfaced a few days ago…
however, if the pspgo did get hacked, then i would be all for it…if not, then i can alway keep both, no? pspgo to play games and psp-2000 for my homebrew…yah..
i still use cfw 5.00 m33-6 but now its being left behind. and some new games requires the latest fw. i just hope for a new m33 cuz i dont trust other cfw (no offense to other cfw developers). i just like m33 cuz i think it is the most stable of them all(its my opinion not a judgment). peace!
QFT
I don’t believe there even is a 6.0
okay i know this is psp talk, but my concern is what we will do with the ps3 slim. our plans to crack that mech open should be fun.
I say lets wait for a ModChip for the PSPGo. That way we can load what ever firmware we want.
Have you ever wonder why Dax left the psp scene? Maybe he switched to PS3 now. Lets wait and see. I may have a hacked PS3 slim this christmas.
Hahaha, he never left read up mate… read up!!!
Hacked PS3 Slim?
We can’t play pirated copies of the game..
because 90% of PS3 games couldn’t fit into a DVD!
Plus. Blu-Ray discs are expensive as hell.
Well, i have an idea~ =P
Load the games from the PS3 BIG Hard Disk!
FTW FTW HACK PS3! =D
@vin
why did u sell your PSP-3000?
It’s already modified to be able to play ISOs.
@Original Topic
oo~ FW 6.00 already!
I still remember when my PSP-1000 was in FW 2.60
Ahh~ good times.. good times..
@???
Why has the comments page turned into
a English Judgement or whatever lol.
Complaining ppl about how they type?
psp cant have tougher/ps3 security because if it was implemented then all the old Umd games wont work as it will see it as pirated
anyways psp can never have uncrackable security anyways when we already have a deep understanding of the system, heck we kernal access and service mode access
Most of you fail to remember that there was no major change when the firmware went from version 4.xx to 5.00. Version 6.00 might also be a lackluster update.
Hey, I gotta question. when is there gonna be custom firmware for 5.51? and should I update to 6.00? I am waiting for either a 5.51 downgrader or a 5.51 custom firm. Which is closer, a 5.51 custom or a 6.00 custom?
i really don’t know.
its better if u stay with 5.51..
I can’t wait for the GO! Why? More experienced hackers will arise. This means more people will try to find exploits. And since the GO! and 3000 will run the same OFW, when an exploit will allow CFW on the GO!, we all get CFW on our 3k’s!
That’s my theory, anyway.
…I can’t wait for the release…
…October first…
…By Janurary, we’ll all have CFW…
well when ”GO” comes out how many will GOto this new portable platform or should most just stay with the original and just make the original better then MR.GO. IM staying with my nestalgic. i dont see much flare it just remains like a reg psp just looks diffrent. I hope that made sense.
What? Are you saying let’s stay on the old PSP’s? I’m going to stick with my m33′d Phat, but I was looking at the release of the Go as my saving grace, meaning I could possibly have homebrew/emulators on my 5.51 PSP 3000…
no games are running under version 6.0
and please help i can’t bring back my 3.90m33 version what shall i do.
i have psp 3000 …. version 5.03 gen a(full) .
but……
i cant play new games such as ultimate alliance 2, naruto shippuden legends akatsuki rising… and gran turismo….
