I have a question... when you downgrade and start using those homebrew application, if by any chance I don't like it for x reasons, is it possible to return your psp to "normal" and use it like you never downgrade and use those custom firmware?
FELIPE NO  |

But why wouldn't you like it? The 3.03OE-C Firmware can do everything the official Sony firmware can do with the addition of some very useful functions like homebrew support, and the ability to run PSX games at full speed. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I'm just the kind of guy who don't really like to mod their thing just in case something goes wrong... and it's just that I'm not sure that I'll use those homebrew enough to justify modifying it. Just wanted to know if I could restore my psp to normal in case I don't use homebrew as often as I think I would.

Well, the 3.03 downgrader has been released.

I just downloaded the 3.03 downgrader and it worked perfectly for me. I'm now running 3.03OE-C

With virtually every PSP downgrable, it's safe to say that Sony will take a HUGE blow in their software sales - which means, I really hope people are still going to buy software and just use their 3.03 OE for PSX homebrew.

I definitely plan on buying and playing Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters and Valhalla Nights, so I'm not even gonna bother with homebrew stuff yet.
I've got an original 1.5 PSP, but I've never tried homebrew on it. Truthfully, I just play the games that are available for it. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? Reading -- Bleach, Claymore, Chun Rhang Yhur Jhun, NOW, Zero: Beginning of the Coffin, Black God, Twelve Kingdoms (novels), History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi Watching -- Bleach Playing -- Fable II, Valkyria Chronicles, Guitar Hero: World Tour, Star Ocean: First Departure, LittleBigPlanet, MegaMan 9, Mirror's Edge |

I'm like SouthJag even if I have a 1.5 psp and knew about homebrew at that time, I wasn't really interested in homebrew...there's ps1 emulator on PC and have it ready but I never use it or rarely and when I use it it's mainly to replay the game I already have...so I don,t see why I would be more interested in playing them on my psp...
anyway I don't have the GTA game and don't plan to buy it just for that(because I don't like much gta game so beside the hack for downgrade it will be useless to me) and I don't want to go in all the trouble to find the good version (not to say that I'm pretty sure the price will go up on ebay now) How ya doing, buddy? |

You can always rent a psp game wherever..
So now I'm back at 3.02. Can anyone care to explain where I start all this upgrade bs ? thanks. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |

Are you at the retail version of 3.02, or 3.02 OE-X?
How ya doing, buddy? |

I would just like to say that the homebrew scene is kicking ass. I know there are downfalls to this kind of thing but there's alot of plusses too. One of them being that it will force Sony to update their firmware or add features if they want to stop it or do better.
On another note I hope someone makes a nethostfs plugin for 3.03 OE or it's added to the custom firmwares sometime. =( This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

edit : I already placed a few files and folders in there. The next part is where I renamed the pbp files to 150 and 303. When i do the oe maker. It says "Cannot Open File" I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Sin pretty much put it on the money. After you place 150.PBP and 303.PBP in said spot, run OEUPDATEMAKER from the XMB and it should verify both PBPs and make DATA.DXAR from those PBPs. You'll then move the created DATA.DXAR to the OEFLASHER folder, then boot the flasher from XMB. Good luck.

Yeah. Everything went fine with the custom upgrade. Now I should just delete those folders,etc. (or no? ) and get that popstation to see how it works.

Member 378 Level 26.39 Mar 2006

Delete them. You needed them for nothing more than upgrading, now that you've done that, get rid of the folder. I would suggest you keep the update EBOOTs though, so you won't go fishing for them next time a full OE comes out.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Member 232 Level 39.22 Mar 2006

Done. So where do I begin with this whole PSX Iso thing? Is there a site that goes step by step? Won't mind if you give me a short explanation either
.On another Note, Sony released a 3.10 firmware for the Korean versions. It won't be too long for DA to hack that. Jam it back in, in the dark. |

With the 3.03 OE-C firmware being out there is one important file that you needed in order to have non-Playstation Network games--Base.PBP. Which, essentially, is Hot Shots Golf 2 renamed.
Firstly, you'll need a GUI. pspupdates.com has them a dime a dozen, but the best one IMO is PSX2PSP. There are a few more files that are necessary in order to use optional controls (like compression), one of which is popstation.exe that came with the custom firmware download. All you gotta do is download a PSX ISO from where ever (I posted a link a few pages to a forum that has over 3000+ ISOs [rips included]), load the ISO into PSX2PSP, set the compression if you want to, and convert away. The default path for the EBOOT.PBP and Keys.bin is your desktop. Make a folder with the name of the game, place the EBOOT and Keys into the folder, and drop that into ms_root:/GAME/ and that should be it. PSX2PSP also supports customs icons and backgrounds that you see in XMB. Sorry to be vague but I gotta take off for work. I'll leave you with a couple of links and the PSX2PSP that I use. Good luck. http://www.snesorama.us/board/showthread.php?t=5284 http://forums.maxconsole.net/showthread.php?t=40802 PSX2PSP There's nowhere I can't reach. |

Does anyone have a proper working Game Boy emulator on their PSP? I am seriously having the shittiest luck when all I want to do is play Balloon Kid and Solomon's Club.
Right now I have Homer's Rin 3.2. It loads and plays games just fine, but the second you enter the emulator menu, you'll lose sound to the games for good and need to restart the emulator to get sound back. This wouldn't be a problem, if the emulator actually somehow saved setting changes I've made, so I wouldn't be stuck with the shitty default controls everytime I play a game. Now it's impossible to play with a custom button layout AND have sound. So there's supposed to be a newer version of RIN, 3.3. I've found a GeMP, which is often called "GeMP (Homer's RIN 3.3)" for whatever reason. Only problem is how I can't get it to start properly on 3.03 OE-B. In the GAME150 folder it'll give me a black screen for a bit and then reboot the whole system, while in the GAME folder it doesn't start at all. I noticed if I boot the system in 1.50 kernel mode, I can start the emulator, but since this is ridiculously troublesome AND this version also doesn't save settings, I'd rather use the 3.2 version. There is also a second Homer's RIN 3.3 apparently, suitably called "Homer's RIN 3.3 FINAL". However, the releaser failed to mention in their documentation how this one is meant for KXploit and won't start at all. So is anyone using some other Game Boy emulator for PSP that actually works like it should? I mean, I like RIN for most part, the games play well if I don't, you know, touch anything. I'm having similarly shit luck with GBA emulators (which of course don't play Game Boy or Game Boy Color roms). PSPVBA has a lovely frontend, but the sound emulation in 1.2.4 was utterly attrocious. I don't know if this was intentional or something wrong with it, but the games were completely unplayable cause of the sound. gpSP didn't start at all for me because I apparently needed some additional GBA BIOS which the documentation also didn't mention. I don't really think it would work all that better with my luck anyway. EDIT: e[mulator] is actually really good. Of course, it does everything else perfect except the resize is awfully blurry. The resize on RIN was perfect on the other hand -_- This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Um, didn't 3.03 OE-C make having base.PBP and keys.bin pointless? If you remake your image files with the new DATA.PSP supplied with popstation in the OE-C update you dont have to use KEYS.bin or base.PBP anymore.

Alright, so ness just got himself a PSP and it's in 2.71.
The instructions in the 3.03 OE-C say:
That is, if ness was to attempt installing 3.03 OE-C on his 2.71 PSP, it should work, right? What should he take into consideration before trying anything? (I'm asking because I installed from 1.50, so I have no idea how different the process is). What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Member 328 Level 29.80 Mar 2006

Nonono. Lol, SE is "Special Edition" - meaning, a custom firmware.
Ness would need to downgrade it to 1.5 in order to upgrade to 3.03. This detailed thread should help: http://forums.maxconsole.net/showthread.php?t=33695 Note: Make sure he knows what motherboard he has. I cannot stress that enough - because if he uses the wrong downgrader, he's got an expensive brick. How ya doing, buddy? Want obscure Classical Music CDs?
