PSP Firmware 6.20 Exploit? Works on all PSP Models!?
greg | December 26, 2009
Say it ain’t so… Watch this:
Could it be? I guess we’ll find out in the next day or two. There’s no doubt that is indeed firmware 6.20… But, I’m a skeptic with good reason. My bet: it’s just a silly image with a black background and green “Hello World” text. Please, oh please — prove me wrong. File this under pure PSP speculation for now.

Erm. I am going to agree with you that it is a fake video…. I am going with the guessimate that it has…. a 5% probability on being real…. Lol
look at 0:56 and pause, the right hand side you clearly see the words JPEG..its fake.. one hundred percent fake.. and who has ever heard of a HELLO WORLD where you can press “O” and go back to the XMB…
ONE HUNDRED PERCENT FAKE!
exactaly . he just pressed O and got back to XMB
totally fake. how could you even fall for that?
Feels like bullshit to me
fake shie. it’s an imahe
wouldn’t the preview for the image come up if it wass a fake?
Not if you’re fast enough.
haha! I’m callin’ BULLSHIT!
the user’s nickname was Alex…
Dark Alex?
I knew as soon as i saw the nick(apodo) Alex that somebody had to imediatley bring DAX into it i doubt it’s DAX. DAX wouldn’t put up a hellow world exploit. That man would exploit the system then hack it then create a fully operational CFW. He would never do just an exploit espacialy on that seems totaly fake.
shame on you dashackers. I can’t belivie you posted this and its proven fake by freeplay. check his youtube channel. Ok its in Spanish and the nickname is alex, but its not dark_alex.Its just some wannabe fack noob. No doubt those team mac fools…fooling you
he did? I don’t see it… Are you talking about when he debunked Team Mack’s claim?
arent exploits only possible with tiff images?
and sony removed tiff support after 5.03.
so its probably fake lol
Does any one smell that? It smells like a load of shit to me
Oh no there you go
Looked away and missed the show
how much wasted time
Will you survive?
Oh yeah fooled again,
I don’t know how and I don’t know when
Not much else to blame
But wishful thinking
fake jeez. why does this sites even post them. unless some news or a release is made please stop posting these you tube fake videos on this site.
Isn’t it odd that the psp returned to the XMB when he/she was going to show the sistem firmware?
Look at how the lighting in the room suddenly changes at the moment the hello world screen appears. All you need to know.
Can’t believe you guys are throwing this off as a fake. There’s no proof that it is real, and none that it is fake.
As for the lighting, if you check right before the light change (0:03) you will see that it says Hello world.
If u look closely, he access the IMAGENES menu, aka Images. Its not even an EBOOT or anything, i dont see anything run. Its very clear its just a picture. Completely fake.
Actually, make that the FOTO menu. My bad.
And the music sounds like its being played from a cellphone. The fact he doest run any homebrew totally kills it. Why bother posting this? There has to be more interesting REAL things.
you dumbasses. its real. the lighting change is the psps brightness from blue to black. and tiff was removed. remember the slims chickhen exploit it used gifs. it still works
No dumbass, the lighting of the ROOM changes, not just the screen. Look at the outside edges of the video when it happens.
Dont assume this is real just because ChickHEN is. No proof, no believing.
It does look like the start of an exploit, but it also could be easily faked.
He could have started a song in the music folder (with an artificial delay inserted at the start of it), pressed HOME and then went to the picture folder and opened the image with practiced timing.
So far, this looks like this will be the exact same bullshit fest Team MACK started.
its fake look at min 1:45 CAREFULY
what r u tlking about? the time is up to 1:08?!
I think he means “0:45″. I see what he means. The “image” has a time on the right of it. So it’s a video.
idiot. that’s the foto’s date and time of creation.
now, fake or real?
the only thing about this video that doesn’t make sense to me is that he’s starting something from the foto menu and not the game menu. so it must be a simple jpg with some other background music.
it seems to be correct? a bit skeptical though, in his psp’s time i gues he really did take a minute to record jus like the youtube vid time is. then again i could be wrong
It’s a video. Look at “0:45″, it has the video length time on the right side.
Just so you know, that’s the time it was created, or last modified, not a video time.
I have to agree that it’s likely a fake, ONLY because it’s simply too easy to import an image that says “Hello World!” and try to pass it off as an exploit. In the absence of any ACTUAL user-created programs being run, we’ll all have to be skeptical of this one.
On another note, if by chance it IS real, doesn’t anyone else feel like perhaps this is a huge mistake to announce it without an actual cfw loader created first? The last time someone announced that they had found an exploit, Sony patched it and that was that. IF a real exploit was found, I would assume that coder would find a way to load cfw first, before announcing it.
I THINK ITS JUST TONNES AND TONNES OF BULLSHIT. BUT YET AGAIN BULL SHIT WORKS WITH ON STRESS. DUDE IF ITS REAL THEN MAKE A CFWLOADER AND STOP WASTING OUR TIME.
CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL
INDUBITABLY OLD BEAN
When he opens the photo.. you can’t see the “XMB Control” pop-up” window because he has hidden the right half bottom half of the screen so you can’t see it.. And when it disappears off the screen, only then does he zoom the camera out
lol what a fake
all we need now is a 6.10 cfw or higher to make things better :O
at 0:46 the image is seen as a JPEG..i feel sorry for the all the individuals who believed in this.. me being one of them until the point i caught it on my first view at 0:46.. B))M.. crushed lol
F.. you tot..whatever., not ever worthy to get a full swear..
lol.. wow i revised a portion of it (the last bit) ..wonder why this one posted and then my revised comment…whatever
CHECK DOWN!!
LOL !
1-the file is a jpg
2-he opens the file himself , and the file just says hello world
So 100% fake
U can find out it’s fake at 0.03 it self. if u watch properly u can see the camera icon that shows up when u open a normal image in the psp.
why was this worth postin on this site?LOL
Indeed it is fake.
yep total fake..
the fact his user is set to alex is no coincidence either the guys just being a nob!
Nobody can tell wheter its true or not, its just a hello world. Just hope its thrue, there is nothing else to do, if u r a psp go user or updated above 5.03. I have a psp 3k withofw 5.03, so i can wait as long as it takes
All of the hello world video’s ive seen all have moving text, blinking text, or something to show its not a picture. All of them require the psp to be rebooted, and if you did exploit it, it crashes the psp so that a user program can run.
This is 99 percent a fake, cause i might be wrong, so its got 1 percent taken away.
Oh puh-leze. If you believe this, I’ve got a bridge to sell you.
After reading the posts here I decided to look at the video a few more times to see if I can find the proof that this is fake. After going though the video a few times I don’t see where it says jpeg. I know that image exploits have in the past crashed or rebooted your psp after being executed. That isn’t the only possible way for something like this to act since it could crash back to xmb rather then crashing the psp altogether. I haven’t looked at the code for the 6.20 firmware but from the time I was coding I know there is code that makes a system resist crashing. If that kind of code has been put into newer firmwares then something like a buffer overflow exploit would just crash back to the xmb instead of crashing the system.
This doesn’t mean I believe this exists and I don’t really care if it does since I have my hacked 1001 and am not planning on getting a new psp. It just means that I think half of the people posting in this thread are full of bs.
Pause around 0:45 – 0:46. Its on the right side.
I think we are failing to see the bigger picture here. No matter how hard Sony tries to patch up its cracks they will always have an exploit to take advantage of. But yeah this has to be a fake since 6.xx and up i don’t think allows tiff picture formats.
Wow.. This guy is slow, I found this ages ago.. I’m too lazy to make a custom firmware out of it though.
But y’know.. Never say never. :)
wow. what a crappy imitation you can do.
Impersonation FAIL.
Its Dark_AleX. Everyone things its hilarious to post as DA. Tools
Hi,
fake or not it`s not a prove that it`s a fake cause it`s in jpeg format(never heard of an jpeg xploit on windows?)
Psp Xploits don`t have to be in .tiff format bug`s are everywhere in all picture format`s,saves and so on but it seems the .tiff format was full of bug`s
I think this is the reason s0ny stopped the support.
ah thank you,no i haven’t heard of jpeg exploits on windows. that’s cool thanks again for the info.
fake: http://wololo.net/wagic/2009/12/27/fake-jpeg-exploit-on-ofw-6-20-by-tontunaspi/
so its fake
This must b fake. The guy wasn’t even talking at all. The would have to be THE shady-est video I’ve ever seen. Deffinetly fake.
Most people show the entire damn screen during it too, what a dumbass. But hey, mission accomplished, were giving this douchebag attention.
bleh. it looks like a fake.
his method of “xploit-ing” seems so fishy to me…
and why is the file in jpg if it is real?
(Alex, huh? Yep, reminds me of the “legend” lol)
This is fake guys, Ignore.
6.20 cannot be hacked just yet as it has new security measures.. But we’re working on cracking it as always, don’t worry.
whateveR?
This guy must really have no common sense. Seriously. An exploit of “!Hello World!”, where you can just press O to get out of. When has there ever been an exploit like that? I admit, he did really great on making the thumbnail green…
Ok let ne just say something that’s just common sence to everybody…
If this was a real exploit, he would have demonstrated on a psp GO! !!!!
I mean, yo, he’s demonstrating on a fukin fully hackable psp!
Wat r u thinking-? —
yo if anyone here finds any exploits, tell greg ( not to sound like a kiss ass lol )
and send him the game save/info so it’s proof and he’ll confirm it. Freeplay fucked up the first time, although he did try good.
Just make a video of a PSP GO not a PSP 1000 2000 or even 3000. And of course show the hello world
@Dave
Not really. What if he doesn’t have a PSP Go? What is he going to do, buy one just to show you? Get real.
The whole point of this “exploit”, was to show that 6.20 OFW is hackable. Not that the PSP 3000’s or Go is. I don’t know where you got that idea from.
And those of you who say it’s fake, how do you explain the music that plays, and the fact the preview images are green instead of black (like in a typical TIFF exploit)?
Yes, I know the image isn’t a TIFF, but how can we rule out the possibility of a JPEG exploit? Seriously. Think for a second instead of hoping on the band wagon and yelling out “FAKE”.
Effin load of turd!!! HOW did this get on THIS site? ITS A JPEG … ARRRGHHH!!!!!!
OH MY GOD! im SO glad to see DAX himself commented on this!!!! x
As if DAX actually commented on this page, i’m not dark alex but look at my name thats how easy it is you fool
i like blondes with fucking busty tits and would open it really wide for you. i love blondes..so sexxxy
nway, keep it up
this is really fake, 6.20 was not even created in 23/12/2000, the psp is just starting in that year…FAKE!!!!
this is about as real as Jordans tits
ok guys were not sure if this fake or not but CMON DARK ALEX WE NEED YOU!!!!! plz help us
WOW i read TOO MANY (nore than 1) post sayin its real or maybe its real
