2.71/2.80 hybrid firmware direct load working on SE-B!!!

[sshaw1982]

Found this on maxconsole, (thanks JAMESBDX) I have attached all the files I have used to get this running on SE-B'' but be warned, if you have a custom gameboot, you may not have the room to install the extra prx files to flash and keep your gameboot - i had to do a clean install of SE-B'' first to get it fully working.

Files and version of PSP Filer I Used below

2.71/2.80 hybrid firmware direct load working on SE-B!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ok before i start, there is one small con to this method : this flashes your firmware, i am in no way responsable for any bricks


the advantages :

1) no need for devhook, this is direct from XMB!
2) works with no umd in drive!!!

installation (the tricky part)

1) i presume you're on se-b" so i won't dwelve into that
2) you need four 2.80 prxes which are :
- mscm.prx ........ rename it to mscm_280.prx
- mesg_led.prx........ rename it to mesg_led_280.prx
- registry.prx......... rename it to registry_280.prx
- utility.prx........ rename it to utility_280.prx
Place these four renamed prxes in the root of your memory stick.
3)you need psp filer (1.9 is the latest, google it) in the game150 folder

now this is EXACTLY the instructions i used for this to work, as i said before if you're unsure what you're doing don't bother! and i won't be reliable for any OMFG! i've got a brick etc etc posts. now to continue...

4)open psp filer (for english language press select, o, x) and enter hacker mode (L + dpad left + R)
5)you should see that you're in ms0 and hopefully you'll see at the bottom of your list the four prxes.
6)highlight all four (by pressing square on each one) and then press x
7)you should see a copy to ramdisk option with circle show up, if so press circle. once copied press circle again
8)now press start several times until you see you're in flash0
9)you'll see the kn folder, place your arrow on it and press x
10)you should see the option "paste all folders from ramdisk" with circle. if so press circle and press again circle to exit
11)press select + start to leave psp filer
12)if you return to xmb, it's a good sign everythings worked okay.
13)plug in the usb and create a folder in msroot called reflash and paste the attached pspbtcnf_game folder inside
14) shut off your psp and go to recovery mode. go to advanced, flash pspbtcnf_game.txt (2.71) and press x. WARNING, it's important you don't screw this part up so make sure it reads what i just wrote
15)go back to your xmb and run your game!!!

so what does this do that SE-B" doesn't do?

[sshaw1982]

I don't know, only loads 2.80+ required games straight from memory stick, thrillville untouched, yugioh etc
mortal kombat still needs to go through devhook but these two at least are fine

Know what pisses me off? this is the EXACT same thing I was doing when I bricked.

does socom 2 online work with this tweak

[sshaw1982]

no socom still recognises 2.71 from somewhere it could be another prx thats needed but when u go online its still asking you to download the update and chaos, i nearly sent this to you but thought you'd be proper pissed after bricking your own, I thought I'd done mine but it just didn't have enough space on flash 0 with my gameboot still there

[Zero]

Heh. I'm just happy I had the right idea and method :P

[slaphappygamer]

- mscm.prx ........ rename it to mscm_280.prx
- mesg_led.prx........ rename it to mesg_led_280.prx
- registry.prx......... rename it to registry_280.prx
- utility.prx........ rename it to utility_280.prx

whats the total size of these prx's? im trying to load a couple of prx's myself, but i dont know if i have enough room.

I've edit my first post on my thread and have a link with you. :)

em.... since ChaosZero did the same thing and bricked. I hope you should put some "warning" bout it. :)

I have the Devhook version here.

tis run on memorystick, so not posible it would brick ur PSP :) and i have the instructions how to get those prx files.

sshaw damn you, i did what written exactly and i bricked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!















j/k it worked, but i must advice all noobs DONT try it, it's carry a high chance of brick, it worked perfectly and yu gi runs with no problems, and good thing you uploaded the files already renamed cause i think if u didnt many will brick just because of that, thnx man
